To even start this review, I will first like to say that i was raised in Peru until the age of 14, then moved to Miami to live with my family.   I've been in the Military since 18 so i have been accustomed to go to different restaurant and you know \"eat\".  Thru the years i have experience bad customer service even if the food was great the service will kill a good seasoned meal.   We drove up to the restaurant on a hot Sunday day and i literally had to call the place to see if it was open, the parking lot was empty and there was not a soul in the restaurant.  I should had followed my gut feeling and just leave the place.  Since i'm from Peru, i kinda wanted to eat some good food. \n\n  We went into the restaurant and \"WE\" had to greet the SHY, SOFT SPOKEN, TIMID excuse of a waiter.   so we decided to sit down and look at the menu.  I notice that the place was very clean ( 1+) the menu looked very nice, printed in good quality paper and very colorful (1+).  We started by ordering Pisco Sour (typical alcoholic beverage in Peru),  well come to our disgruntled surprise, they have no liquor license.  On to the next one, so we ordered the Chicha Morada (juice made of heating purple corn in hot pot of water),  It was cold, (great) BUT missing some flavor as well as the cut up small pieces of apple to increase the flavor. (-2).   So as we were looking at the appetizers i notice that they had ANTICUCHOS, me coming from the capital of Peru (LIMA)  we are known for the anticuchos, especially \"en el barrio\" (the hood), so we called the (timid waiter) and decided to try the anticuchos, as we are sitting there looking at the menu we started wonder why it was so quiet.  Well let me see, there was no music playing.  I mean even the hole in the walls have some music playing and the top restaurants have either piano music or the sound of the ocean playing in the background. \n\nthe appetizer:  the Anticuchos came in a plate with in two sticks of 6 pieces (anticuchos are made from cow heart).  From what i remember it was supposed to be well done, seasoned, juicy and not a red center.   The anticuchos that we had were a little red inside, not juicy enough.  (3-)\n\nWe decided to order the Lomo Saltado, Pollo a la brasa, and the Salchipapa (for the kid) \n\nLomo Saltado:  (made from seasoned steak, White rice, French fries.   The flavor was not there,  no hint of aji amarillo (yellow pepper) which is used to give that extra flavor and spice.  not enough garlic,  Rice was definitely not on point.  We peruvians love rice.  Portion was okay nothing to impressive.  (-3)\n\nPollo a la brasa:  Now this is a plate i haven't had in over 10 years.  From what i remember pollo a la brasa, is supposed to be well seasoned, tasteful and EXTREMELY JUICY!!  this chicken was dry, not juicy at all and it truly felt like they warmed it up in the microwave (-5)\n\nSalchichapa:  typical barrio appetizer.  You can buy them from the side streets in the little carts.   FIRST OF ALL, what makes salchipapa is the cream, without the cream or sauce, it's really just fries with hotdog.  the timid server, brought the plate with ketchup and mayo on the side,  i looked at him dumbfound wondering if the cream will come later but never arrived, come to find out it was that they ran out of it.  ON A SUNDAY WITH NO CUSTOMERS AT ALL.   GREAT (-6). \n\nComing from Peru whose grandma owned and was a chef at her restaurant, I am impaled to say and critic this restaurant on a high level of criticism.  Peruvian cuisine is one of the Top cuisines in the world.  \n\nto close this out: \nService was not up to part,  Food was mediocre,  price was not bad but do i have repeat (you get what you paid for)  that statement really represents this restaurant.  \n\nI sincerely do not recommend this place. minus 19!!
