Restaurant péruvien, les plats sont excellents. Bon service, tous les plats sont bons. Je recommande l'entrée pulpo al olivo & l'assiette principale ceviche mixto. La bière est servie bien froide. Belle découverte, je retourne à ce restaurant très bientôt!
First time trying Peruvian food & was positively happy. Service was great & they took the time to suggest us different dishes. The Ceviche are excellent!

I went with my family last week, we ordered the one with anticuchos, causa, ceviche (i think it was la ronda marina) i had high expectations but the food was tasteless & horrible
I had the worst causa that I've ever eaten. It didn't taste the aji amarillo & I think they use yellow colorante idk.
The ceviche was horrible, think I can prepare it better lol. No spicy & it tasted just lemon & ginger.
The anticuchos, lack of spices, horrible, the marinade was tasteless.
Tbh, idk why people still reviewing with 5 or 4 starts, i want to believe that they are from here that never had real peruvian food & I understand that many of the costumers are from Quebec & they are not usually eat spicy food but the restaurant should keep the original recipe.
The portion size for most dishes at our table was great. I ordered ceviche unfortunately though & was told it would be 220 grams, I love ceviche & have eaten it a lot & they served me 100 grams max for $28 which I thought was unreasonable.
The servers & personnel are very friendly & helpful & since the restaurant has a patio, we enjoyed the music & people dancing across the street.
The food is prepared in a traditional way, with few condiments & a good portion size. I had the ceviche & the grilled octopus, they were good but not great. I will give it a 3.5 rating in the seafood but it is not an option. I'll come back & try beef or chicken dishes.
The food here was absolutely great! We had the piqueo wellington, & it was the perfect way to sample a little bit of some important dishes from the menu!! highly recommended if it's your first time. Their ceviche was amazing, super fresh & full of flavor! For dessert, we had the suspiro limeno, which was such a treat. It's the first time I've seen a Peruvian restaurant actually offer it, & they had it available. Loved the whole experience!
AMAZING service & the food was impeccable! Delicious! We were a big group & everybody enjoyed their meals. We had the calamari, nachos, mixed ceviche, & chicken fajitas. Everybody else from our group had different meals but they were all appetizing. Our waiter went above & beyond. We were celebrating two birthdays & the staff came out singing. It was a great experience. Will definitely be coming back! A+++
This place is a classic for my peruvian in-law family. I love the ceviche mixto there. Most food is really good. Some things are hit or miss. Overall always a good expérience for authentic peruvian food
My family & I have been going for over 20 years. It's always been the same family that own the restaurant. This is easily the best Peruvian food in Montreal that I've tried. Some of the best calamari, their ceviche is awesome, their chicken, beef, yuca, salad, everything I've tried was amazing. Also they have the best green hot sauce ever.

It's a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for BEST Pisco Sour! 😍 Ceviche Mixte is to die FOR ☠️ Rib eye steak "Churrrasco a lo pobre" is to explode 🤯.. It's enough to share. I come here often! ❤️❤️❤️
I went for dinner on a weeknight. The service staff was very kind, attentive & fast. I had the mixed seafood ceviche & it was delicious. Highly recommended.

Had the ceviche & liver dishes. Food was really great. I enjoyed the music but felt like the ambiance could be improved. Prices were very reasonable & the server was very nice. We're looking forward to going there again.
Not impressed, neither by the lukewarm service nor the very average unremarkable food. Ceviche bland with what looked to be canned shrimp & other than the papa relladas which was very tasty, the other dishes ordered by my dining companions just as uninspired & dull.
Had amazing ceviche, a nice cocktail & tasty main dishes with such big portions that we had to take a couple doggy bags home. Nice friendly, family style vibe.
Super bon restaurant!!
Tout était délicieux du début à la fin
Nous avons commandé les calmars en entrée & le ceviche comme repas principale
Les desserts était tout simplement f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-q-u-e-s!!!
Je vous le recommande vraiment! En plus, c’est super abordable!
