We visited this restaurant based on a recommendation & never expected to eat so well. The concept is a perfect blend of Peruvian & Italian cuisine, & every dish we tried was even better than the last.
Beyond the amazing food, the service was outstanding. The entire staff was attentive & welcoming, but we would especially like to thank Mia, who took wonderful care of us. We asked for her recommendations, & every single one was a hit.
This place has definitely become one of our favorite restaurants in Montreal. It was an experience that exceeded our expectations, & we highly recommend it. We will definitely be back!

I was expecting more & therefore I was sadly disappointed. Hopefully this review will temper the expectations of the italian fusion fans. I am a particular fan of italian -japanese fusion restaurants having tried a number in both hong kong & tokyo. From an instagram post I expected something similar from this italian-peruvian fusion restaurant. I am also a pretty big fan of peruvian food. Its not that its not decent, everything was OK, but everythig really could have been a little more excellent with a little more flair & effort. Three of us ate so I tried a lot on the menu, most notable was the cheesecake which was similar to a Basque cheesecake but with a creme caramel top - I have had better but it was very good. The carbonara was decent as well, but again I have had better. MD rating 6.

Shrimp causa was delicious. Octopus was gorgeous but could have had more flavour. My italian friend loved the focaccia but I just found it alright. Fried seafood was great. My two cocktails were pretty good. Excellent service. Nice design.

Really nice food. A little confusing because we don't know much about Peruvian food (however there are Italian dishes too). all the Peruvian food was excellent, fresh & delicious. Halibut ceviche, pork in tuna sauce with truffle peach, seafood paella … all amazing & unique to my palette. .
