Nice place, well decorated, light and airy, indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly greetings from the…read morestaff, including a welcome and handshake from the waiter. That's different. Now, usually, these days, when someone calls a place Peruvian fusion, they're talking nikkei cooking - fused with Japanese, and there are a bunch of creative sushi rolls and such. Not here. In fact, other than offering some tiraditos, which are ceviches done in a sashimi cut, I didn't see anything on the menu that seemed to be a fusion with any other cuisine. Ceviches are noted as a specialty of the house. I immediately spotted one that was an octopus and salmon one, though the waiter had already advised me that the chef didn't like the salmon that had come in that morning and had sent it back. I asked what they were subbing in, and he said, lenguado, or sole. That's even better - I'm not that big of a fan of salmon in ceviche. This was excellent. Beautifully seasoned, generous portion (it better be, given that they charge a whopping 550 pesos or $15 for an individual sized ceviche). And both the standard ajicito (not very spicy that one), and pureed rocotos (yum!) on the side. Though generous, I was still hungry. Not enough for a main course, but an appetizer sounded good. Anticuchos mixtos, coming as a trio of brochettes, chicken, pork shoulder, and veal, sounded perfect. And once again, excellent. Some of the best anticuchos I've had around here. And again, quite generous, especially with the potatoes, corn, etc. (350 pesos, about $9.50). Overall, I like the place a lot. It's expensive, like La Mar or Osaka expensive, without being as creative. I'm guessing the price level is attributable to the neighborhood, being a wealthier suburban area. But it was a nice treat, and some really good food!

Four of us had dinner here, but found it rather routine; uninspired. The service was okay, but the…read moreserver was rather gruff. They open at 8 PM. We arrived at 8:05 PM, but the restaurant wasn't open yet. The guy came out and it would be a 5 or 10 minute wait. Not sure why. The place was empty and certainly ready for diners. Instead, we had to wait in the drizzle outside. Not a big deal, but it didn't make sense. Food: 3 stars Service: 3 stars Ambiance: 3 stars

We were greeted cheerfully, service, by Marta Rios herself, was friendly and reasonably efficient. They still have the same quirk of being the only Peruvian restaurant I've ever been in where you have to ask for ajicito, the standard chili condiment on the table at most places. And theirs is pretty mild (though finally, later in the meal, we got them to puree up a rocoto chili and give us something spicier). They also serve bread, which isn't a common thing in Peruvian restaurants. To make it easy for the six of us, we just ordered a bunch of things to share. A passable papas a la huancaina - definitely needing some spice added. Ms. Rios made the point that Argentines just won't eat anything spicy, so nothing on their menu is - that didn't bode well. They also don't make their huancaina sauce with any kind of nut in it, to avoid allergy issues (which was good for one of our members who is allergic to walnuts), but it means it's basically a sauce of cheese, milk, bread, and some sort of aji amarillo, the yellow chili, but with all traces of spice removed. It might have even just been turmeric. Tequeños, not a classic of Peruvian cuisine - more of Venezuelan - basically fried puffs of dough filled with goats' cheese in this case, and accompanied by a guacamole. The ones that had cheese in them were pretty good, but not all of them did. The best thing on the table, the anticuchos de corazón, marinated and grilled beef heart. A ceviche made with lenguado, sole, but without any chili, was a bit of a yawn. Given that the sauce for aji de gallina is basically the same huancaina just with onions and garlic added, this one was still on the bland side. A seco de carne, strangely for someone from the north, from Trujillo, with rice and potatoes rather than rice and white beans. Still, not bad, and probably the second favorite on the table. And, a pescado a lo macho, fried fish with a shellfish sauce, that was just humdrum, at best. So, overall, like the new space, the service is fine, don't get the complete aversion to using chilies - those days of locals not eating anything picante have dwindled drastically, and, unfortunately, food that's just kind of average. Nothing bad, but nothing worth making a second trip there. Ah well.
