This is a beautifully decorated restaurant with friendly staff. I absolutely loved the food that…read morewas made and you can tell that Carlos put a lot of thought and love into his food. I appreciated that our friendly host (I wish I got her name) took her time to explain each plate and tell us what was used to make it and where it came from in Peru. She did me an even bigger service by telling me in Spanish, as I do not speak French, and I appreciate that a lot. The food was delicious and I was happy to find that Peruvian cuisine is also making it's way into France. I will definitely recommend this place to others!

We can here due to all the positive reviews and wanted to check it out. We didn't have any…read morereservations but luckily they had an open table. Make sure to get a reservation because the whole restaurant was packed when we got there around 8pm. The place had many Mexican and South American themed decorations. Reminded me of the Hispanic restaurants I've visited when I lived in Florida. They have a nice, relax feel to the place. The servers were also great. They helped us with the menu. The menu had lots of options. Their cocktail menu was set up as deck of cards with description of each drink. Had a couple of their drinks and all of them were good and strong. The dishes we had were the ceviche, the octopus, and duck. All of them were excellent. The ceviche was light with a nice lemony flavor to it and not fishy. The octopus was very tender which I was not expecting. I thought it would be hard and rubbery. And the duck with beans was a very good combination.

(Last visited 11/4/2021.) In Lyon on business and staying at the Crowne Plaza, but I don't feel…read morelike digging the car out of the parking garage underneath, I walk behind the hotel to check out what's there and this is what I found... Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right on the back alley pedestrian street behind the Crowne Plaza is this gem. It's a beautiful mojito bar that's wonderfully decorated with an open concept floor plan. The drop-ceiling was a lil' underwhelming, but the artifacts spread around the walls along with the floor-standing art definitely helped out a lot. The music was chill and big chairs were comfortable. Service: Kevin took care of us and he was okay. It could've been the language barrier, but I ain't trippin'. He was busy and running around all over the place so I cut him some slack. Food: I went with this Mexican combination plate. On it was some onion rings, a small salad, a taco, a quesadilla, 2 wings, guacamole and tortilla chips. Every single thing on the plate was very underwhelming. I mean... what did I really expect from a Mexican restaurant in Lyon, France? I don't know, but I certainly wouldn't order that again. My co-worker said he really enjoyed his double-cheeseburger. Value: My plate was 15€. I mean, I guess. This place isn't expensive, but it's closer to the cheaper and more affordable side. In conclusion, I wouldn't come back here. It was fine for what it was and for not having to drive anywhere, but in the spirit of supporting local businesses, check this place out if you're in the area. Hopefully you have a better experience and enjoy some better food than I had!

This food was absolutely gross. The food was like cardboard, no seasoning and cold. Three of us…read morehad the same dish and after attempting to taste we just left. It was a sampler of a taco, onion rings, chicken wings and small burrito with chips. I never thought nothing could taste good on a sampler dish but I was wrong. In addition the mojito royal was like no mojito I ever tasted. Each of us took sip and hard pass. Mint was on sticks instead of muddled, no sweetness and tasted like old carbonated water. They offered to get us a different dish but all confidence was lost. Still paid and barely touched.
