What diners say — our read

Across 23 reviews, opinion here is genuinely mixed. How guests are treated tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 5.0 stars.

Conspicuously absent: cleanliness, which no reviewer brings up. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 20 of the 23 reviewers who rated. The split is 20 positive to 1 negative across 23 rated reviews, with 2 in the middle.

The inspection lands in between as well: DBPR graded this kitchen a C (79/100), citing 1 high-priority, 2 intermediate, and 7 basic violations. That inspection was on April 2, 2026. Its inspection trajectory is downward over the records we hold. Ranked against Orange County, it is safer than 18% of the restaurants we score. Among the items recorded were food & equipment thermometers provided and accurate and cross-contamination.

Neither signal is decisive on its own here, which is why both are shown. Read the originals below and judge the pattern yourself.

    Llegamos al restaurante ya que decía abierto y al entrar la cajera nos vio muy mal y nos preguntó que qué hacíamos allí, le comentamos que íbamos a comer y nos dijo de forma muy maleducada que la cocina ESTABA POR CERRAR, y le dije que habíamos entrado porque afuera decía open y con mal gusto me dijo ok y tú querías para llevar y le dije que no y de manera muy grosera me dijo OK HAVE A GOOD NIGHT y se volteó

    Absolutely delicious food. Drove here from Deland. Every bite was worth every penny and mile. 10/10 recommend.

  • May 21, 2026

    Food was outstanding! And the service was even better. The coconut lemonado was incredible.

  • May 21, 2026

    I’m SPEECHLESS. Some of the best Peruvian food I’ve tasted. Service 100%. Food 10,000%. Everything was so fresh and delicious. I had the shrimp fried rice, which is a huge portion. I had enough left over for dinner! They also have a drink called Limonada de Coco…OMG. It felt as if I was on tropical island when drinking it. Last but not least, the dessert. I had the ice cream and a Peruvian cookie. It was so light, not to sweet. The perfect balance. I will be back here, when I return here for work!

    Espectacular la comida, la atención y el ambiente. Super recomendado !!!!
