As I plan a trip to Peru, I'm craving the foods I hope to eat when I get there later this year. We don't have too many Peruvian options in town but I decided to take a pescatarian foodie friend for a dinner date here to check it out. We shared a trio of dishes and left full and happy.
CAUSA DEL SABOR: A layered appetizer of mashed potato and tuna (or chicken), in the shape of a heart. Flavors and textures we typically wouldn't mix in the US but they harmonized well in this dish.
CEVICHE MIXTO: Served on a decorative, fish-shaped platter, this dish is well portioned for the $20 price. The mix of fish, octopus, shrimp, and crab was fresh and accented with sides of sweet potato, corn, and cancha (corn nuts). Get at least one of their ceviches when you come!
CAUCHA DEL MARISCOS: In the fusion section of the menu as a "seafood fried rice", similar to arroz con mariscos but with slightly different seasonings and preparation. This was good and paired well with our other dishes. Again, large portion for the ~$20 price.
Due to the pricing and portion sizes, I'd recommend this more for a group than for a date night. They do also have breakfast specials and weekend-only specialties. I'm in the area for work occasionally and look forward to coming back for the lomo saltado.
NOTE: They have live music and salsa dancing on Saturdays, and our server said they book up in advance. I like to be able to have conversation when I dine, so this is a deterrent for me but YMMV.
