This was one of the most disappointing meals I’ve had in a long time. The steak was extremely tough and completely lacked flavor. The green sauce, which is supposed to be a hot sauce, was not spicy at all—instead it was an overpowering cilantro sauce that made the entire meal taste unpleasant. The passion fruit juice tasted artificial and wouldn’t stay mixed, which made it even less enjoyable. Overall, the food was so bad that I ended up throwing away the entire $38 meal. I would not eat here again, even if it were free.

I found this place on Uber Eats years ago and the quality literally just keeps getting better. I love the chicken chaufa my fav thing to get off the menu. Their green sauce is literally amazing! They have the sweetest customer service. I wrote them a little note being funny and they deff exceeded expectations. Thank you guys for the great food!

Nice service and affordable prices, you should try the rotisserie chicken and mixed chaufa rice with steak and chicken.

Great Peruvian food in the heart of Elizabeth. As far as eating in the place is a little dark and dingy and smells of stale food but the food itself is worth the visit. I’ve eaten here twice both times were takeout but the food and portions did not disappoint. Recommend the bistec a lo pobre or the lomo saltado both delicious. This place delivers and accepts credit cards and Apple Pay. No parking here only street parking .

This tiny restaurant is a pretty nice place to have a quick lunch while being in Elizabeth New Jersey. Especially for those who have to serve as jurors. The Court House is on tbe opposite corner of this restaurant, so if you dont like the food served in the cafeteria inside the building, I strongly recommend you to stop by this small restaurant. Prices are pretty good and you will get lots of food with a great Latin American flavour.
