4.8 / 5.0(1,097 reviews)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Experience! Ask for Giovanni My wife and I had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere made our evening feel special. The highlight of our meal was definitely the Lomo Saltado perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of authentic flavor. It was one of the best versions we’ve ever tried! We left very satisfied and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Peruvian food and a memorable dining experience. We stopped by this restaurant after our trip down the mountain, and it was such a great choice! I ordered the grilled alpaca, which was cooked perfectly and full of flavor, while my mom had the la pollera. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The Pisco Sours were some of the best we’ve had; they added their own personalized touch that made them stand out. Our server, Roger, was excellent! friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place, hands down! What a great place with so much history. From Cusco to Machu Picchu by bus, train and bus again. Best to find a good travel agency when booking. It seems chaotic, as so many people visit every day, but this chaos has finess. Some patience is needed, but the view and the place itself is magnificent! Dare to go- you will not regret it!

My favorite restaurant in Peru! Authentic and delicious dishes with amazing presentation. Service was epic too (Ally was so sweet and funny and Giovanni was great!) Live music from local artists was also great!! Ate here both days I was here.

I visited this restaurant while visiting Machu Picchu. It was a bit chilly in the evening, but there was a large brazier, so I had a warm meal. I ordered ceviche, and the food was delicious. I recommend it.
