CHUNCHO

This place is sugar and spice and everything nice… The ultimate authentic Peruvian food experience … and its locally sourced, sustainable, plastic-free style… is truly the cherry on top. We ordered the tasting menu (99 sol per person ) but requested to exclude alpaca and cuy meat, which they kindly accommodated with chicken and lamb instead, along with fresh local fruit juices. The portions were so generous that we packed the rest and had it for dinner. Loved every bite! Special thanks to our warm hostess, Yoselyn.

Don’t sleep on Chuncho. This might have been my favorite restaurant in Peru, and we ate at some amazing, highly revered places. Creative, surprising and delicious. Cocktails were incredible too. Our favs were the duck and trout.

We came here after a little nap. Traveling from NYC - Bogota - Cusco - Ollantaytambo took a toll on me so I arrived at the restaurant not feeling well. We ordered the coca tea to start and they brought a little appetizer of the local grown corns and grains that came with a green sauce and a hot sauce. I also adored the tiny grater for the salt. I ordered from the asadas menu and got the hongos ostra (oyster mushrooms) and the torrejas (delicious fritter with grains) and rocoto relleno (stuffed veggie rocoto pepper breaded with the same grains as the fritters) as sides. He got the trucha con sarza de trigo. He said the trout was the best dish he had on the trip and we both loved the little side salad with the vinaigrette. Pro tip: the fritters were also delicious when we ate them cold for breakfast because I had leftovers. After dinner, we felt better and we ended up staying and relaxing with a matacuy sour and then got another round before leaving because they were so good. The matacuy has a lovely citrus and fennel combination. We also ordered the Wari on another visit and appreciated it as well! All of this (tea, meal, and two cocktails) cost $30 and was one of the best meals of our trip. Please disregard the rude review from the guy a few people below. He clearly doesn’t consider his privilege when visiting other countries and complaining about the cost of the food when something like this back in the US or Europe would cost over 100.

Amazing peruvian food, a big shootout to our waiter Cristian and the barman Aderly!! Always helpful and friendly a key asset to ensure we had a great experience. I would highly encourage to tryout the cocktails which feature local products such as Matacuy and a coffee liquor paired with ginger beer.

Great restaurant in Ollantaytambo, focusing on fresh ingredients, farm to table. They provide a great variety of unique local dishes. Most of the things were cooked and seasoned very well. The chicken was dry and underseasoned. Staff was nice, service was a bit slow but hey mentioned it upfront.

Excellent food, and tried many new foods. All locally sourced foods, and local goodies! Our waitress Yoselyn was a super star! Really excellent advice on how to eat and local customs. Muchos, muchos, triple muchos gracious!

Great local biological food. We had an amazing experience. Vibe was great and the waiters where lovely. We had alpaca and trout and that was delicious, they served food spices and sauces with the meal.

Delicious and authentic Cusqueñan food. I appreciate the effort to be as sustainable as possible. The portions are very generous and we didn’t have any stomach problems. I highly recommend it.
