First, My private guide brought me here in the morning on the way to one of three sites we were seeing that day... I was allowed to take a few photos, I went back the same day for dinner, incase you're wondering about a few...photos of an empty restaurant. Now back to my dinner review...
The moment I arrived, I was overwhelmed not only by the beautiful gardens but also carvings and stone/art works perfectly curated all around the property I wanted to run around and put sold signs on everything... Walking the pathway towards the gorgeous wood door, I couldn't wait to see inside forgetting, I was not at a museum but was here to have dinner.
Inside, the walls were covered with Peruvian art, hand painted tiles & plates... the floors were brick and laid meticulously in a chevron pattern and the ceiling, OMG gorgeous hand hewn beams and a number of antique chandeliers.
The entire restaurant was filled with conversation, smiling faces and a spicy scent wafting in the air... Oh waiter, I'll take a glass of wine and whatever you can get here right-a-way! [Kidding I don't speak to waiters like that] I was seated at a lovely table perfect for people watching.
The bread was warm and fresh from the oven and some pretty darn good butter, I ordered a fish dish and a glass of Chilean red, that was very delicious oh and the wine too.
The staff was buzzing around like bees, always with a smile, I never felt rushed and I never felt anyone was hovering, food arrived piping hot and in an appropriate time frame.
Even with a packed Restaurant, when I placed one finger to the rim of my nearing empty wine glass, poof a new glass appeared.
My dinner and wine ... came to an amazing total of fifty dollars, talk about a great deal, I would have paid them double.
So, I had great service, delicious meal and a few nice glasses of wine... I experienced a perfect evening and I left truly satisfied...
Enjoy!More
