    Great service, very cozy little restaurant in the neighbourhood of Kensington. Some of the tapas were good, but the small portions both of tapas and especially main dishes don't compensate it. Overall feeling is that the prices, even after discount, are not justified and could be explained only by restaurant location in the posh neighbourhood

    food was reasonable, but vastly overpriced - no wonder they have to offer "discounts"

    Rich chocolate mousse atop a delicate cake base, finished with a crisp chocolate decoration and garnished with cocoa powder and edible flowers.

    Wonderful service and food! Thoroughly enjoyed! Elias was great!

    I had 2 tapas dishes, both tiny, 1 cocktail & 1 cappuchino which with service totalled £47. Ridiculous. Plus, the curtains at the door didn't close properly so, sitting near the door, we were cold. 2 of my friends spent 1/2 the meal with their coats on. Very disappointing.

    I ordered a sushi roll and a ramen, the chicken in the ramen was unsettling and in my opinion inedible. The sushi roll tasted fishy and lacked any other flavor.

    Not worth it. Mountain of garbage in front of the restaurant. Expensive for nothing. not a real Peruvian place. Serving a ceviche but not knowing what is a Leche de Tigre is shameful. Would not go back there

    300£ in total with party of 4 including 2 kids definitely not worth it. Manager gave our table away despite being within the 15mn windows and lie about it, we asked when the people at our table have arrived. Having a ceviche doesn’t make you a Peruvian restaurant especially when nobody knew what is a lèche de Tigre … Not worth it.

    We booked it for xmas eve dinner really as a last minute choice and it didn't fail us even though we weren't familiar with Latin America's cuisine. Everything was awesome including the desserts as well the only thing we can mention as a minus is that the portions are a little bit small. Other than that excellent starters, main, desserts and wine!

    Ceviche of finely diced raw fish marinated in citrus juices, topped with red chili slices and microgreens, served chilled on crushed ice.

    Truffle sea bass ceviche was excellent.

    For two people, we paid £200 which I would not mind, if the food was mind blowing. The stakes were chewy, tasteless and very cold. Elias, the waiter, was excellent. The toilets for a place like this, we're disgusting 🫣 Surely, we will not go back there. However, they made a nice ice cream plate for my daughter birthday, which was nice, it wouldvhave been nicer, if there was a candel and a bit of a birthday song.

    Dark blue corn tortilla topped with tender, slow-cooked shredded meat, crispy fried elements, and fresh microgreens for added texture and color.
    Sashimi-style fish in a creamy, subtly spiced sauce, garnished with dried chili, thinly sliced vegetables, and microgreens.
    Crispy plantain base topped with tender slow-cooked meat, garnished with fresh herbs and thinly sliced vegetables, offering a balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors.
    Golden-brown savory grain or potato base topped with creamy white sauce, garnished with purple edible flowers and accompanied by small red chili peppers and a dusting of black pepper.

    Gorgeous Restaurent. The exterior & interior is beautiful. The quality of the food does not reflect the prices. Really substandard. I ordered the half chicken and they must of buried it in salt before serving because it was incredibly overbearing. Portions are so extremely small so beware!

    Thinly sliced meat in a rich sauce on a creamy base, garnished with fresh herbs, accompanied by tender blistered green peppers.
    Creamy flan topped with whipped cream and a dried pineapple slice, surrounded by glossy caramel sauce and caramelized fruit, garnished with an edible flower.

    Great ambience. Food is good, but portions are small. Staff is attentive and nice.

    When we arrived we were given a terrible table next to the bar but complained and eventually received a table in main dining room. Booked the restaurant as wanted to experience the Argentinian picanha and cassava fries. Unfortunately both were off the menu and for some time according to the waitress. Struggled to find a suitable accompaniment to the mains but settled for roasted sweet potato. At £9 for a simple potato was a disgrace. As no pichana settled for sirloin which was pretty tasteless and small. Partners sea bass and pardon peppers were excellent. Atmosphere was also fantastic and whilst service was a bit faulty towers (no place settings or cutlery) it improved over time and the manager was alert to issues and resolved them immediately. Wine list quite pricey hit we are in KSH. Will definitely return

    Fantastic food and luckily with a good discount from the Fork festival! Would gladly pay full price on a regular day as the food is so delicious. The Octopus, lamb tacos and duck rice were standouts. We wish to come back as the decor is beautiful too. The waitress Laura was lovely, thanks so much and whole team at Zuaya.

    Not sure how a restaurant can only have 1 bottle of beer at lunch time. We asked for a soecific stake and they brought us the steak lunch menu instead, claiming steak was the same. Food quality not great for the high prices. All in all not a great experience.

    Fluffy bao buns filled with tender shredded pork and tangy pickles, showcasing a rustic presentation.
    Grilled steak with a caramelized crust, served medium-rare and accompanied by a creamy sauce, enhancing its rich flavor.
    Purple corn tortilla topped with tender, spiced shredded meat and garnished with microgreens.
    Taco on a soft corn tortilla filled with a creamy mixture of diced meat and mushrooms, garnished with microgreens, served with crispy fried root vegetable strips and a rich dipping sauce.

    We ordered several starters the ham croquettes were salty as was the calamari. The croquettes came out lukewarm. The wagyu bao buns weren’t bad but they could have done with a bit of spice same as the lamb taco. We ordered steak and mine was perfectly cooked, medium-well, however, they didn’t really have sides that we liked to go with our steaks such as fries or even roast potatoes. They had baked sweet potatoes which we weren’t a fan of. If I were to return I’d probably order steak and try the guacamole. I also tried a cheese bread it was ok. Service was slow at times but friendly
