My wife loves Peruvian food, so when in Lake Placid we made it a point to come here. And it is actually owned by a Peruvian family! Very nice people, and great service, granted we were only 1 of a few tables at the time. Place is more of a bar than a formal restaurant, which I'm used to for similar spots. Plenty of TVs to watch World Cup. Never had pisco before, so got the Amazonas cocktail to try it. It was excellent and not too fruity! Really cool presentation too in a tall glass. They were out of some beers (owners were away to stock up) and so I got the pilsen callao and which was a serviceable light lager. My lomo saltado was up there with the best I've had. I thought it was a bit pricey, however they used really good skirt steak instead of the usual cheap beef. Fries were good, seasoning was on point, and plenty of rice. Could've used a bit more peppers and onions but such is life. My son liked his fries and my wife liked her tallarin. Would come here again in a heartbeat honestly just because I liked the place and the people, but the food being great is a huge plus. Not what you'd think of looking literally across from the Olympic museum, but a really good find! read more

The ceviche was over spiced with a biting pepper and 100% just white fish and onions. The paella was okay but def nothing special. No crust from baking in a metal pan and almost no calamari. Service was nice, good pisco sour and a nice Merlot. Ambience is disjointed. Trying to be a sports bar with TVs misaligned and off tuned. Ceiling lamps blocking some tv views. read more

BEWARE!!! Food was okay, service okay however when bills came the server added a 20% tip on our table of 6, did not let anyone know he had done this and when I paid with the machine, I asked, am I able to leave a tip, "yes!" he says, still not divulging the fact he had already added this to my bill. I did not realize this until after leaving the restaurant- total scammer. read more

Home cooked Peruvian food and it was an interesting first time experience. The interior is a casual sports bar with a pool table at the entrance. It's located right across from the Olympic museum. For parking, you can find street parking or at the parking lot diagonally across. The staff is welcoming and attentive. We tried their 3 recommendation, ceviche, lamb stew with rice and beans, and Lomo Saltado (stir fried beef). The ceviche was fresh and great pairing with the plantain chips. The beef was tender, and actually reminded of influence with Chinese cuisine. The food was actually a little pricey but enjoyed the cultural experience read more

From the minute we walked in we were warmly greeted and attended to by the owner. We tried 3 of their traditional Peruvian meals and each one was delicious. The steak was tender and flavorful. The ambiance was nice and we truly enjoyed our time here. I recommend this place- especially since it's unique to the area which seems to only provide American and Italian cuisine. read more

We go to Lake Placid alot. Went here over the holidays this winter. Weekday evening for dinner. Place was pretty dead but we wanted to try out Peruvian food. Wait staff barely talked to us, food took FOREVER, and quite frankly was pretty crappy. Worst part was they automatically forced 20% gratuity on us. Sorry man, avoid at all costs. read more

Came here with my husband for dinner and it definitely met expectations! We didn't experience any issues during our visit and were greeted upon entering. Our server was friendly. The atmosphere was unique in that it was a sports bar vibe mixed with a Peruvian restaurant. We shared the Bistek A lo Pobre and enjoyed every last bite. The food was what we expected for a sports bar and overall hit the spot! read more

What a unique place. Sports bar meets Peru. Our waiter, Christian was fantastic and welcoming. Gave us a great description of the various Peruvian dishes. The menu had a combo of sports bar food and Peruvian. We had some plantains that were great and I had a rice dish with shrimp and chicken. It was very good. Enjoyed every bite. And they were playing the Buffalo Sabres game on the big screen. Great vibe. Try the Peruvian dishes. read more

Amazing food and friendly service. Try the mixed drinks! Lots of TVs with different sports on too.

Really delicious Peruvian food! The pisco sour apparently which is the Peruvian national drink was refreshing and the lomo Saltado was super savory delicious. They have a pool table too!! read more

Super tasty food I'd highly recommend lomo saltado. The inside of the restaurant is very nice with plenty of space and service was also great. read more

Delicious food . Marys paella was very authentic. My husband had black bean burger which was tasty as well. Good food and great service. Definitely recommend it read more

One of the best meals that we had while in Lake Placid. Food was delicious. We had a large group of 8 everybody was so pleased with their meal. I have a gluten allergy and they were extremely accommodating made my dish fresh with modifications. The server was so friendly and pleasant! Robin D read more

Everything was so good from the fresh strawberry margaritas, Tallinn Saltdo, plantains. We really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.

Not sure how the food actually is. Closed a full 2 hrs early compared to their posted hours. In a tourist town that's definitely frustrating when there are already limited places to eat. Even if you're too lazy to update your Google listing at least update the voicemail on your phone or have the courtesy to post a sign on the door explaining youre closed early instead of being locked up tight at 7 pm when your hours state you're open til 9 pm. read more

Really cool place! We stopped after a day of Olympic sightseeing. Our server was super attentive and kind and even brought us over a ring toss game to play at the table. The menu was a great blend of American, Mexican, and a whole page of Peruvian dishes. I truly wish I was hungrier to try one of them! Everything we had was great. The chicken quesadilla was filling and fancied up with peppers and onions. The flautas were delicious but the topping of guac, pico, salsa, and feta was so amazing that I could eat a plate of that alone. Highly recommend! read more

5 stars for a sports bar with a twist on peruvian cuisine. My wife and i ordered the lomo saltado which was really good. In a place like this you gotta make sure to get the dish they specialize in and not something like a burger. The waiter was excellent and even through some guacamole on the side for me at no extra charge. Will definitely eat here again once im back in town. read more

Friendly service and delicious food! The ceviche was fresh and the lomo saltado was the best I have ever had. Conveniently located across from the Olympic Center. Highly recommended read more

Walked in on a Friday afternoon around 2. The place was near empty. We were greeted by a very friendly waiter and were told we could sit anywhere. We sat pretty much in the middle of the inside dining area. The waiter came and got our drink order and food order. Then, we waited, and waited, and waited. We had ordered 3 burgers and a salad with chicken. We finally got our order almost 40 minutes later, and it was completely underwhelming. The chicken on the salad was wafer thin, could have called it a chicken chip. The burgers were not flavorful at all and were obviously made from frozen patties. None of the items were worth what they were charging, in my opinion and certainly shouldn't have then 40 minutes to cook! The place itself had a small bar area and the dining room had license plates and team banners on the walls, I guess that's what classifies it as a sports bar? Final words...steer clear! read more

Wow!!! This place was pretty awesome and the setting was very nice. The beef empanadas is definitely recommended. The owner/bartender was also very nice and attentive. When we asked for drinks recommendations he made the house special drink (pisco sour), it was very good. There's also a pool table in the front which was a nice bonus. read more

Our waiter was really nice and patient. He told us this mother was the one cooking the Peruvian food. We thought it was cool that we would be getting something authentic. The Lomo was good and so was the chofan. However, my steak was tough and the pasta was bland. Food was a bit overpriced for the quality. read more

Went here with my family. The place left a lot to be desired. It has a strange smell as soon as you walk in. They advertise as a sports bar but they have formal dining seats and a sink in the middle of the restaurant. I ordered a plain cheese quesadilla and my husband ordered a panini. My kids got a burger and pizza. My son ordered his burger medium and he got it rare. (He didn't say anything so that is on my son.) when the bill came I was charged for a chicken quesadilla which I didn't order. The waiter kept arguing with me that it was the same price. My husband's menu clearly stated that his panini was 18.00, and he was charged 20.00. We brought it to his attention and he kept arguing that it was 20.00. He brings a menu over where the 18.00 was crossed out and 20.00 was written after we pointed out that my husband's menu wasn't crossed out. He kept arguing with us, he even told us not to leave him a tip if we were that upset. Not worth a fight for a few bucks. I left a 10% because I just can't not leave a tip. We paid almost 82.00 (before tip) for some of the worst food. We now know why the restaurant was nearly empty for a weekend right before Christmas. Eat somewhere else read more

Horrible business. At 6pm my wife called to order pizza and wings since this restaurant is walking distance to our hotel. On the phone the person ordering said they are out of chicken wings. Then my wife asked to order a pizza and the guy said sorry we are too busy to take orders and hung up on us. Will never deal with this place ever again. read more

The food here is fantastic! Make sure to get their authentic Peruvian food it is delicious! I had the Bistek a la Pobre and highly recommend! The service is excellent and I love all of the tvs around the restaurant. It really adds to the ambiance! Definitely coming again next time we are in lake ol read more

Stopped in whilst walking about in Lake Placid. Sat at the bar for happy hour. We only had the empanadas which were fantastic! We asked for hot sauce and when the first wasn't hot enough, they had a hotter version in the back. All were yummy (if you like heat from the sauce). Server at the bar very nice and helpful. We enjoyed it and will be back! read more

They were understaffed today but that didn't diminish service one bit! Super impressed with the bartender who hustled around a busy bar and a pretty full seating area pretty much by herself. Her positive attitude despite being down (probably two people) and the way she directed the little help she had as well as ensuring the kitchen was delivering the best food they could, that only would be worth bonus stars! However, the food was also delicious, the prices more than fair and the environment was electric! So glad I had dinner here tonight read more

Reading the reviews, one could assume that this is a high quality Peruvian Steakhouse - it's walls adorned with frescos of South American culture ... it is not this. It is a sports bar, and a mediocre one at that. We sat on the patio in complete silence. No music was fed through the outside speakers. Our waiter, a really nice young man, had to continuously walk around the front of the restaurant to go inside because the patio door was missing a handle, making reentry impossible. We waited an hour for microwaved nachos (which were missing several listed ingredients) and a pressed sandwich. This place was kind of a bummer, especially when you factor in the inflated menu costs. At least we got to stare at the Olympic Museum (which was also disappointing). read more

My husband and I stumbled into this sports bar that happens to serve yummy Peruvian Lomo Saltado ( beef stir-fry with rice) . It's not in their menu or specials so you have to ask for it ...also try a pisco sour but have them make it with the Peruvian Pisco not the Chilean one #supportlocalbusinesses read more

I'm not sure how we missed the fact that this restaurant has Peruvian food, no sign of this on the menu and the llamas I see in other reviewer's pictures have been replaced with tv's. Something must have changed over the last few months. All we saw were TVs on the walls and burgers on the menu. How seafood is the first thing on the cover of their menu is very confusing, not a seafood dish to be had. If you get a $3 soda, don't fall for the offer of a refill, it will cost you another $3. Burgers and fries were not bad, but ultimately we came away confused. We were the only ones eating there at 6:30 on a Friday night. Not a good omen. Waiter was friendly and we felt welcomed, that was worth a few stars. read more

do yourself a favor and GET THE PERUVIAN FOOD. Amazing!! I wish they focused on the peruvian food because that is what they do best!

Our food was very good and the menu has a lot of variety, including great authentic Peruvian food. The service was also very friendly and accommodating. It is great for quick and casual dining. Our waiter, the Peruvian mother/cook's son was very friendly and brought a ring and hook game out to the table for is to occupy ourselves before the courses came out. Excellent overall! read more

Stopped in for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon. We were the only customers in the restaurant. Service was excellent. Friendly & attentive. The empanada appetizer was really good. My wife ordered a dish off the Peruvian section and I ordered a burger. Both were good. I'd go back next time in town. read more
