    I went for the first time with my husband because I was craving some Peruvian food. We went on a Saturday around 1:30pm and there was no waiting time. We ordered an appetizer (croqueta de aji de gallina), which I had never tried before, and it was absolutely delicious. For the main course, I ordered lomo saltado, and it was also very tasty. My husband tried their special of the day, which was tacu tacu, and he was completely delighted with the flavors of his dish. For drinks, I ordered chicha morada, which tasted so good and had a natural flavor. Needless to say, this place delivered excellent quality food, and I can't wait to go back and try more items from their menu.

I'm Glad we chose the best Peruvian restaurant in Hackensack. I said that because I'm Peruvian and we know when the food is fresh and good flavors. I recommend this 100% . The owner Moises come to our table to ask if everything goes well with our food and service. Very happy with the great service to the costumers.

    New Peruvian spot in Hackensack, and they definitely didn't disappoint!<br><br>Their menu felt bigger than we anticipated! They also provide an iPad with pictures of every dish, which makes ordering so much easier!<br><br>Pulpo Anticuchero (5/5): The octopus was cooked just right, so juicy and the flavors were spot on. Def a highlight here<br><br>Tallarines Verdes (5/5): The pesto pasta was incredible, and the steak was super flavorful. (tip: We ordered medium-rare, but it came out closer to rare. If you want true medium-rare, consider ordering medium!)<br><br>Ceviche Clasico & Ceviche Llama Sam (4.5/5): You honestly can't go wrong with the ceviche here, super fresh.<br><br>Crispy Croquettes (4.25/5): Very meaty,<br>and definitely worth trying.<br><br>Llama Grill (4/5): Generous meat portion! The flavor was good, though it could've been slightly more tender<br><br>Calamari (3.5/5): Just okay, the batter could have used a bit more crunch<br><br>Fried Rice here was mediocre and had more
