Kara EmilySeptember 25, 2017Oh my. What a lovely experience. I came by myself and partook of pisco sours - a delightful traditional drink. I also had the cauliflower soup, warm and nourishing, and the zapallitos. Delicious!
been here a dozen times now & the food has been consistently amazing. the garden is so nice, too, & the staff is really great. so happy to have this little gem in the neighborhood!
MashkaJanuary 6, 2016Tuna top & bottom, octopus in middle. All in very cream based sauces (not sure why since the fish was great quality). If ordering octopus, make sure you're familiar w the sauce, def an acquired taste
- Ilona KirnosOctober 7, 2013Get the ceviche sampler! I've tried them all. My favorites were the pineapple tuna, ceviche mixto and the octopus ceviche. The mussels and the jaleita were also very good. Their sangria is very tasty!
CarolJune 28, 2021It’s a vibe. Lots of outdoor seats, and two floors indoors. Def try the ceviche sampler to try more than just one— yellow tail, tuna belly, and octopus. And the mango salad!
- MashkaJanuary 6, 2016Paella (w out the ink sauce). Deeper than it looks. Had a lot of shrimp, calamari and additional chorizo inside the rice. Slightly spicy. Really good.
Kimberly AginApril 11, 2015Omg the ceviche! We got the sampler and did the mixter, white tuna, and mussels. SO GOOD. Also did the zapallitos tapas and sangria which was great too. Sliders were so so. Overall fabulousness.
Rory ParnessFebruary 13, 2017For sure start with the cevice sampler. The tuna and oyster dishes alone are worth the trip here
ShantiNovember 14, 2013Lomo saltado is amazing! It's actually chunks of ribeye, cooked to order and with a delicious gravy. Far better than lomo saltado I've had at other places and a great bargain for the price here.
Net MoonApril 1, 2019Awesome food Chef Miguel is taking Peruvian food to another level . Creativity Passion and love for share makes this restaurant A MUST GO in Brooklyn. Cocina peruana extraordinaria
Elyse EstradaOctober 16, 2012Totally unassuming from the front but food was excellent! Tilapia was one of the tastiest dishes I've ever had and the salmon was also quite flavorful. Sit outside on the little patio and enjoy!
Everything. This spot has quickly become my favorite in the neighborhood. The civiche tasting plate is good since you can try a lot of things!
Lisa YSeptember 28, 2019Ceviche mixto is delicious, black paella also wonderful with lots of clams, mussels, and seafood. Hearty and large portions. Good pisco sour as well
Jesse BagelsAugust 3, 2014Very good sangria. Couldn't keep my fork out of the avocado salad. A bit too much cilantro in the paella but the ribs were unique and delicious. Salmon portion was a bit small for the price. 3.5/5- sne345October 18, 2016Best place near here!! It's different and amazing! Skirt Steak, Calamari, and Shrimp Risotto are the best items on the menu!!
Kimmie OhhAugust 14, 2020Get the Chino-Latino ribs. They’re spare ribs with aji panca, miso & lime chimichurri. Try any ceviche.
Jonathan MoraSeptember 1, 2022For tapas I recommend the Anticucho. For the entree I recommend the Asado.
Shanna ScottMarch 1, 2015Mussel soup is amazing! The food experience is excellent, from the complimentary chips to the dessert. Flavorful and delicious.
James CJanuary 2, 2017Really nice seafood. Gets crowded so get reservations. Great place for a date. Service was on point.
Lynn HarrisMay 29, 2011Seriously, eat here. Serious food in a neighborhood place (at neighborhood prices). Pineapple tuna! Seared white tuna! Mango salad! We don't eat meat but I must say it looked/smelled great too.- Tina G.February 5, 2012Excellent food. Mango salad is amazing. As is the cauliflower soup. Get the ceviche sampler. The tuna with pineapple and the tuna with avocado were great!
rich masioApril 3, 2015The ceviche sampler is a great choice, nothing bad on that menu. Skirt steak, tamales, everything is amazing.
Leo GBSeptember 2, 2013Consistent and delicious. Stand outs: ceviche, tamalito Verde, lomo saltado...but really you can't go wrong.
David DinkevichAugust 9, 2014Fish tacis are a must have from the tapas menue!!! The best tacos. Also there Mussels are delicious! !!
Nathalie TorresSeptember 22, 2017The Peruvian standards are great: ceviche mixto, anticuchos, and lomo saltado were fantastic
Jack TarMarch 22, 2012I hate seafood that is poked and pimped with added spices, sauces and shit. I like my clams raw, my oysters wild raised, fresh raked from the bays. SOUFFLE. OYSTERSsoup
Nuree ChoeDecember 31, 2013Ceviche sampler! And the chicken! The mashed potatoes that come with the chicken is pretty heavenly.- Jack TarApril 5, 2012Always amazing. The famous Chef is doing a great job. I hope Park Slope appreciates their luck to have such a restaurant.
Philip MFebruary 9, 2014Brunch here was so tasty and good deal that this place deserved to be busier!
Addicted to the cauliflower soup, grilled prawns, and octopus ceviche.
Marco GomesNovember 21, 2013Amazing ceviche selection, white tuna is the best tuna dish I've ever had.- Michael Fox-RabinovitzFebruary 13, 2015Great cauliflower soup, zapallitas are very tasty, sliders mediocre
Anthony BartaliniNovember 4, 2011Been here for lunch and dinner a few times and everything has been great, including the waitstaff.- Food is excellent and affordable. Vibe is nice esp in garden. Staff is so sweet too.
Kev SkinnyOctober 1, 2015Flavorful. So salty though. Enjoy food with a gallon of water. And maybe in IV
- MashkaDecember 28, 2015More meat focused than the other location. Horrible ventilation (or lack there of?). You'll leave completely stinky after having dinner here. Pretty gross.
- Tony WebbJuly 20, 2011In the garden and wonderful atmosphere. Menu looks fabulous but haven't eaten yet
