    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.

    I entheusiastically recommend Ayahuasca on 46 North Main, a block off Washington where you can park…read moreeasily in the city parking in the back, where SoNo Cinema was years ago. 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.

    Came here because it was recommended. Not sure but the restaurant looked different from the…read morepictures so I'm thinking new owners... anyway... the food was decent. 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. I would have tipped 20% if that fee wasn't there. I added another 3% in cash. The place was really bright with fluorescent lighting and it was not a chill place to have dinner. 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.

    We ordered food for take out/ delivery. This is one of the…read morerare Peruvian restaurants in the area. The food was delivered so well packed that nothing spilled. Biodegradable containers , yet even the beans was wrapped tightly. We did the family meal with whole chicken. Great value for money. The portion sizes were ample. The quinoa/ rice was so savory and the black beans was tasty. The steamed yucca was on point and a perfect pairing with the well seasoned chicken. The sauces were delightful especially the green sauce. Customer service was also spot on in response to feedback. We will try again and you should too.

    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.
