Great location in the heart of South Norwalk…read more Plenty of street parking, as well as a parking lot behind the building a 4-5 minute walk. I was pleasantly surprised with how affordable this food is! Lots of tapas available and decent sizes. I would even say even al the tapas are a tad bigger than other tapas places. If you do decide to give this place a try, I definitely recommend the Ceviche, fresh and perfect for the summer. They also have a variety of empanadas ham and cheese, chorizo, beef...etc. Make sure to pair it with a pineapple mojito. YUM! Great service. Very clean and we even had a chance to meet the chef.

The food is well presented (usually brought to your table by Raul, the chef/owner), delicious, very reasonable and eclectic. The arepas are amazing, the paella is good, as is the ceviche, tacos, stews and more. Unfortunately the place is struggling admits Raul, who bought the restaurant from the former owner. Raul is Ecuadorian and now his server is Alvaro, a polite, very personable fellow who just turned 21 the night I ate there. I was there for dinner with friends the previous Friday and went back for Thursday, all evening, tapas happy hour which was extensive and excellent; but don't just go for the inexpensive tapas which (will set you back a whole $20), go for a great date night any time, the menu is amazing. You will be happy you went! Please go, I selfishly want them to thrive but as they deserve to. Like them on instagram and you will get a free shot of tequila.

I got the Lomo and my husband got the chicken. Both arrived Luke warm. My husband said chicken was dry. The service was good but failed to mention the added 15% tip on the bill.

Unfortunately they missed the mark. Won't be going back.

We came here after visiting Stepping Stones Museum, which was just a 5-minute drive away -- and…read morewe're so glad we did! The food and service were both excellent, and the portions were incredibly generous. We started with the Ceviche Especial, which was absolutely massive -- easily enough for two people. It came loaded with fresh seafood like mussels, clams, squid, fish, and octopus, all marinated perfectly and topped with plenty of red onions. It also came with some cold boiled potatoes, which added a nice balance to the tangy and refreshing flavors. The anticuchos (grilled beef heart) were another highlight. Even though it's listed as an appetizer, the portion was big enough to be a main. The meat was tender and nicely grilled, and it paired amazingly with their ají verde (spicy green sauce). That sauce was so good we ended up eating way too much of the bread just to keep dipping it in. We also ordered yuca frita (fried yuca), which my son loved -- crispy on the outside and soft inside. My personal favorite was the tallarín verde con bistec. The pasta was tossed in a rich basil-spinach pesto, and the steak was thin, juicy, and cooked just right -- medium rare. It all came together beautifully. We left full and happy. The portions are huge, the flavors were great, the service was warm, and the prices were more than fair for how much food we got. We'll be back next time we visit Stepping Stones.

I frequently pass by this establishment because I work in the area. I recently met a new coworker…read morefrom Peru who recommended this place, stating it offers authentic Peruvian cuisine close to home. I'm always interested in discovering restaurants that serve genuine dishes from different countries without Americanized alterations. When he mentioned the location, I recognized exactly where it was. He specifically recommended the Fried Rice, known as Chaufas. I also learned from him that Chinese influence is prevalent in Peruvian cuisine due to historical migration, which explains why these flavors are integrated. The restaurant operates as a takeout spot, with no seating available. Upon entering, I was greeted promptly. Initially, I planned to order the Fried Rice, but I decided to try the Lomo Salado with white rice and added chicken instead. The Fried Rice can wait for another visit. My order was ready in about fifteen minutes, and it was substantial enough to serve two people--really good value. The rice was delicious, cooked to perfection--fluffy and well-prepared, even if it lacked a bit of seasoning. They provided a side of Lomo Salado broth, which I could pour over the dish, but I found it unnecessary. The steak was flavorful, tender, and juicy. The chicken I added was decent; it was well seasoned but tasted somewhat cheap, so I wouldn't order it again. The French fries were good, though I prefer rice as a side. Overall, the meal was excellent, and the customer service was outstanding. I'm already looking forward to returning to try the Fried Rice.

Excellent quality of food! You get what you pay for! Thank you, Munay! I love eating here and…read moregetting takeout. I usually get the fried calamari and pollo saltado. Their saltado dishes aren't drenched in just soy sauce and oil like most places. Instead, their sauce is packed with a ton of flavor and perhaps they use some sort of wine reduction? (Going with my tastebuds) and herbs. I love it! Good pieces of chicken too, not boney and fatty like other Spanish places. One downside was calling for takeout at 9pm (when they close at 10) and being told no. I asked if they closed at ten and then they took my order. I understand if it's 15-30 minutes prior to closing to not be "that person" and order food but it was literally an hour before closing. However, I'm happy that I was able to order/pay/leave all within 10 minutes A suggestion - if you close at 10 PM, I don't want to be told I can't order food at 9:00 PM. Perhaps staff and customers can be made aware of a time where they can no longer order food (after 9:30 or 9:45 seems typical and reasonable). Seeing a certain hour posted somewhere publicly would be super helpful for everyone!
