Some reviews mention that portions can be modest for the price and a few dishes could be spicier or more balanced, yet the overall impression centers on high quality ingredients, thoughtful execution, and a memorable, enjoyable dining journey.
Amazing experience, food is fantastic. This is a must go if you are visiting Montreal. Jonathan is such an amazing barman he took care of us all night!
Charming atmosphere & great location. The anticuchos de pulpo (octopus) were the highlight of the menu (the sauce was exquisite!)! Other dishes varied from good to okay, & drinks were a bit disappointing-I don't think they used pisco in the "pisco sour" (perhaps Brandi?). The picarones came out undercooked inside, hopefully just a bad batch.
Excellente ambiance, nourriture succulente, cocktail délicieux & barmaid exceptionnelle. Je recommande, parfait pour un 5@7 entre amis, ou même un souper romantique !
Portion trop trop trop petit, les photos ne sont pas les vrais portions. J'espère que vous avez manger avant d'aller ici parce que sinon vous allez encore avoir faim après avoir payer un prix de fou pour aussi peu de nourriture
Excellent ceviche, brochettes savoureuses, arroz chaufa vraiment délicieux & très très bon service ! Quelques options de vin au verre & de thé glacé maison. Nous avons hâte d'y retourner!

It's more like chinese food fusion with Peruvian palate. There's strong wok hei in the fried rice! Impressive with the cook. Setting is great for table of 4, squeeze a bit for cosy cosy 6 😁. Service staff can be a bit hard to gather their attention. Drinks & food came out wrong. Maybe it's a one off. Will visit again to confirm.
Most of the food was barely good...we did not enjoy the scallops. I am the only one who had the chowmein & got food poisoning. Pork was very pink. Only thing I can recommend is the jalea, but for that price you can get more & yummier somewhere else. We were a group of 4 & all Peruvian... this did not taste like Peruvian chifa to us. I unfortunately do not recommend. Save your money.
We were excited to go there but ended up being super disappointed at our experience. Food is small portion & overpriced... We ordered pétoncles & only got 4 small ones instead of 6 - which was shown on their Google photos; while the skewers were actually tasty. Window view means staring at the garbage cans outside :(
Pas mal, les plats gagneraient cependant à être plus chauds. Pour les piscos sour & maracuya, il y a du travail à faire. Recevoir un pisco tiède, c'est assez ordinaire. & perso, j'aurai mis un peu plus de pisco.

Delicious! Tastes very close to the Peruvian Chifa. The difference is the presentation, since this is tapas style. It was a delightful dining experience. Recommended!
Delicious restaurant with dishes that are tapas size & the esthetic of their presentation is so beautiful that it enhances the taste. We sat in the terrace which is on the road, but in a summer day, it is better than locked in side the restaurant.
Incroyable, c'est une bonne expérience, très délicieuse la nourriture, les racines de Peru sont très bien représentée. Le service magnifique, extrêmement préoccupe, occupé & gentil. Merci & à bientôt
