Great view of the plaza and surrounding architecture. I had a lomo de alpaca and was perfect. A nice bonus was the salad buffet which had several options to choose from.Service was fast and humorous. Price was fair.Go if you can !

Excellent. I have been to 3 higher end restaurants in Cusco and this one was by far the best. Great food, atmosphere and service. I had the Alpaca and by friend had the guinea pig. I preferred the Alpaca.

As a little guy, I can honestly say that the service and the food here were quite good. We had a great corner seat and we got to overlook that big main square in Cusco and we ate a veggie pizza and had a small half sized bottle of red wine and it was just what the doctor ordered here are some photos.

This place is very nice. For its location, it’s quite accessible. It had a view of the main square. I had the steak with fries and it came with a salad bar which was a great treat. I have no words for the chimichurri. It was expectacular. It is on the spicy side but I like spicy so it worked great. I would def come back here just for that sauce!

This is more of a bbq place. Most items are of the bbq variety. I tried the alpaca steak which was cooked well, and the grilled chicken.They do have an open salad bar that's included in the price!The location and view is perfect on the main square.
