A tiny 26-seat Peruvian restaurant led by self-taught chef-owner Penelope Diaz.

The food: traditional Peruvian coastal dishes, including ceviche — fresh raw fish cured in citrus juice — thinly sliced Peruvian-style raw fish, and homestyle Peruvian plates.

The space: compact and narrow, with an unpretentious, homestyle layout — Peruvian flags, menus on a chalkboard, counter seating, and a small outdoor seating area.

Good for solo diners at the counter, casual meals and relaxed dates. Not suitable for large groups.

• ■Cozy 26-seat room with counter stools facing the open kitchen, where the chef prepares the dishes.
• ■Authentic and simple: a short menu focused on ceviche, raw fish dishes, and homestyle Peruvian cooking.
• ■(!) Space is limited to 26 seats. Expect queues at peak dinner times.

• ■(!) The restaurant does not take reservations. Walk-ins only.
