NYT Top New Restaurants *** (11/2019): "Rice noodles w/ mushrooms and seaweed ; scallop ceviche ; hamachi tiradito; lobster and beef heart ; duck breast nigiri ; chicken thigh , ají amarillo and walnuts ."
The tuna ceviche and the duck nigiri are both amazing and the flaming creatures cocktail is divine. It’s a bit too reverential for my liking. It needs a little more of a fun factor.
Ceviches were all delicious, tonkatsu pork and cabbage too. Drinks were balanced and tasty. Service felt off though, and clumsy.
One of the best meals I’ve ever had, not surprising from the Llama group! Every course interesting, surprising, packed w flavor. The lobster and beef heart was the star, both creative and delicious.
Pricey but worth it! The standouts were the scallop and trout ceviches , the sweet potatoes , and the wagyu tartare ! The Iberico pork was too rich for me. The pisco sour didn’t disappoint either!
Nice and clear atmosphere, minimalist menu and excellent service. Ceviches are not classic but inventive. The pork Milanese is fantastic. Trout & the cabbage are not very good. Cocktails are fine.
Very chic ambience and great service. The wagyu tartare and iberico katsu pork with udon verde were the standouts, but everything was so artfully presented and delicious.
Scallop Ceviche and Duck Nigiri are the standouts of a great menu and great service (coffee and tea service serves 2+ people though, as an FYI)
NYT Critic's Pick *** (11/2019): "Rice noodles with mushrooms and seaweed ; scallop ceviche ; hamachi tiradito; lobster and beef heart ; duck breast nigiri ; chicken thigh , ají amarillo and walnuts ."
Great food but pretty pricey . The portions and price point feels similar to an omakase . There is a Prix Fixe option for $80 which is definitely worth esp if you plan on getting at least 3 dishes
Da best: Tuna ceviche , cabbage , duck nirigi and pork ibérico . Do it. (Lobster and beef heart was so so)
Short menu of Peruvian-Japanese fusion dishes. Tuna ceviche , noodles with shishtake and pork Iberico .
Everything we had was amazing. Definitely try the scallop ceviche and the duck <3
The hiramasu ceviche is so good I nearly broke down and cried.
All three ceviches were amazing, and so was the tofu , cabbage & chicken . A very expensive restaurant for small portions, but I would come again just for the taste
hamachi & uni ceviche ???? and octopus and crab fried rice ????
Pineapple cocktail ok. Had squid ink pasta tonkotsu , scallop and tuna ceviche , duck things. Tonkotsu was best but generally overpriced
Each dishes were unique and delicious. Food was served extremely slow though, venue was pretty. Must come with someone can talk long time!
The tuna ceviche and tonkatsu style pork were delicious.
lobster / beef heart dish was a highlight. super rich though. fun place.
Tuna ceviche and the pork were excellent!
Amazing food, service! Food was hero for sure. Great for sharing!
Very recommended the pork cutlet for brunch ????
Duck Nigiri = MUST
If you pay with AMEX they will pass on to you an extra 1.5% fee
Literally everything
The decor and ambiance is on point but the food does not live up to the hype. I find myself having a hard time trying to find any praise for it. It is just not worth the money.
The duck is a highlight but beyond that does not live up to the hype despite 2 visits. Also, pretty so-so service.
