The food is top notch and very filling, so if needed I recommend splitting a dish for the big portions. But don’t skip on the appetizers either. Not much street parking but nearby is a little parking lot and pay there to save yourself a headache. But I’d definitely come back here again

Came here for lunch with a friend during the week and had an absolute amazing meal. The ceviche was fresh and prepared perfectly. The grilled shrimps and deep fried fish was also excellent as well! All in all, a great meal and will definitely go back again in the future.

We have been coming here off and on for over 20 years. We were happy to take Muni bus line 29 then the 49 to have a nice lunch for our family of five on a day trip to the city. We were hungry after walking the morning being tourists in our own backyard. Three apetizers, four entrees, and 2-liter bottle of Inca Cola, with tip came out to $190. Big plates of good food. Sorry we don't have pictures of all the great food.

This place was recommended by a coworker and since we were in town we decided to give it a try. I am glad we decided to give it a try because it did not disappoint. The workers were amazing and welcoming. The restaurant was clean and the decor was nice. Parking was a bit difficult to find, but we expected this from San Francisco. The bread and sauce given at the beginning were delicious. I could not get enough and wanted more. The Lomo saltado needed a bit more seasoning, but it was still good. The pescado sudado was very good that I finished it all. The portions were great and I would be definitely be coming back when in the area.

Excellent restaurant . I reserve 5 stars for the ultimate dining experience, but this place is close to that. The sangria is excellent and our dishes were fantastic. This place has a local feel and very friendly staff. I highly recommend this place and will go back. Most dinners are in the $18 range.
