    Disappointing visit. Not many people in and no atmosphere. Surprisingly then but the service was very slow - short staffed? One of our party had to leave without having their main meal since the meal took so long to come out. Real shame as was looking forward to some Peruvian food

    Food is authentic Peruvian, however, the price was unnecessary high as the menu was simple traditional Peruvian food, I requested a simple chicken chunks and fries for my 4 yrs old and I was charged for a dish that have fish and sea food. Also, the place needs looks rund down and dirty.

    We were really disappointed with our experience at this restaurant. We were virtually the only customers & we were directed to particular items on the menu to choose. The food was distinctly average & we weren’t keen on the cocktails. The server also tried to have us pay without seeing the bill & had tried to add on extra without our knowledge. Not impressed.

    Great food and amazing staff, friendly and welcoming. It's a shame not to live closer, otherwise I would be a regular there. Highly recommended, great atmosphere

    Despite having a booking for an early dinner, there was no table ready for us. We were seated for half an hour with no drinks or menus offered, and other diners were clearly experiencing very slow service and frustrated. When I finally enquired of the very small staff, they apologised, said they were far busier than they could cope with, and suggested we go elsewhere to eat. Found another excellent place just up the street, but would rather have been told that at the start!

    Actually the food could of been 5 stars but waited 1 hour and 45 mins and didn't get any food so we left. One of the worst experiences in a restaurant I've ever had.

    We were the only people eating but felt at home in the informal welcoming atmosphere. The owner (don't know her name) was really friendly and helpful with the menu. Food was delicious! Highly recommend this hidden gem!

    Food was a delight, and the staff were friendly, and very attentive. This is a hidden gem in Newcastle

    This little authentic restaurant was a great find. A quiet evening so we had an impromptu salsa lesson from Coco. The food and surroundings make you feel that you are in Peru. Extensive cocktail list including the classic Pisco Sour. Super cerviche. We tried the Peruvian beer Cusquenta and cola Inka cola. Well worth a visit and great for hen nights and party people.

    Booked a table for 5.30pm last night (Saturday) and there was no one there...the place was locked up. Why let us book a table then not be anyone there?

    VERY DISAPPOINTED TO THIS PLACE! Firstly, I booked a table three days earlier, yet they were going to put me next to this pillar in the middle of a floor, then they set me to this corner and that space was so tight. I felt like they didn’t reserve my table at all just put me at whatever. Secondly, the food is over price. A small plate of fish salads is 9 pound??? The lamb with rice was almost 19 pounds but it wasn’t really nice. It gave me hiccup a lot. The beef with rice was 17 and it was ok but why are there fries? Thirdly, the service was sooooooo slow! It took them 30 mins to serve me a salad, and 40 mins to serve us main dishes. At last, it took us three times to ask them to come back and get us the bill, and they charged me at least 6 pounds more? For what? The service? In total I park 53 for such unpleasant experiences. Overall, I am very upset about this restaurant. I will not be back.

    The food was brilliant and the service was so welcoming. I was really excited to see what Peruvian food entailed and it was all very delicious.

    Food took almost 1h to arrive, even though there were only 2 tables busy, one was ours. Soda drink came without gas, so the bottle has been opened for some time.
