Don't come here with a large group. As other reviewers stated, the servers don't have any desire to deal with more than 6 people at a time. I can't count how many times we heard the answer "we're so slammed" when we asked about items we ordered and…More »

This place rocks.  I was jealous of all the Peruvian chicken joints they have in DC until I found this gem.  The chicken is spiced and cooked much better than any other similar place I've been to.  Rice is great, so are the ripe plantains and fried…More »

I enjoyed the food, especially my fish tacos entree.  The brown rice was inventive and a tasty accompaniment.  The atmosphere was great for a casual date or decent meal after Southpark, especially if you are trying to avoid the chains (Cheesecake,…More »

My wife made us a reservation here on my birthday.  It was the nicest night so far in the year so we sat outside.  Also, it just seemed more lively outside.  Not in the loud sort of way...it was just more full.  The inside was still "upscale" feeling…More »
