    Our first day experience of Peruvian food. We’re not the most experienced with ‘fancy’ food, but this was the most beautifully presented we’ve ever had. It was also incredibly tasty and we left comfortably full without feeling we had spent loads. The service was incredible and all the dishes were explained. A most visit.

    Very wide choice of menu. Might have been better to limit it at lunchtime. Restaurant empty when we arrived at 12.30 but full by 1.30. Book early for a table. Food a bit variable - some very good, rabbit stew tasty but a bit tough. Coq au Vin first rate . Chocolate musse for dessert not dark enough! Billed as dark chocolate but didn't taste more than 50% cocoa. House red very good value. Service genial and efficient.

    A simple menu but all delicious. Everything is gluten free except the rye bread, obviously, and including the desserts. I recommend the meat balls. End the meal with a small glass of aquavit. Lovely meal.
