Stumbled in by accident while looking for a bathroom for my daughter (we'd been in Cathedral Park). The menu looked interesting, we were hungry, so we had lunch there. Not a big menu but lots of interesting things on it, especially the appetizers. The food ended up being good, the view was nice, we'll go back next time we're in St. Johns!

What a great find! The food was fantastic, the prices, were very cheap for the quality, and the view was great. I liked that they had more unusual food liked yucca fries and South American food that I wasn't familiar with but was delicious. We got the pan seared brussel sprouts and the yucca fries as an appetizer. Everyone liked them, even the non-brussel sprouts fan. We even gave some brussel sprouts to the baby and he liked it! I had the Aji Gallina, very tasty, and my partner had the shrimp ceviche, whiche he said was delicious. The St. Johns Bridge can be viewed from inside only from tables by the window on one side of the restaurant. It was too cold in October to sit outside, but outside would probably have had better views. The restaurant is a bit hard to find due to lack of good signs, but is definitely worth seeking out. It is on the top floor of a building that is full of artist studios. Interestingly building that I didn't know about previously. We went out to dinner on a Tuesday night here with my family (4 adults plus a baby) and it was nearly empty (only one other table filled). I felt bad for the restaurant because it was so empty and was afraid it might go out of business, so I felt compelled to write a great review.
This restaurant is absolutely delicious. I feel like it is a hidden gem in St. John's that more people need to know about. They specialize in Peruvian food, but there are also Mexican dishes and great sandwiches. The Lomo Saltado (chunks of steak cooked with soy, garlic, aji amarillo, red onions, tomatoes, and cilantro) is my favorite dish so far - to die for! And I have a new addiction to yucca fries. I've tried about seven of their dishes so far, each one has been amazing. And to top everything off, there's a beautiful view of the St. John's bridge from the restaurant and outdoor seating on a terrace. I don't know why this place isn't jam packed every time I go there - my guess is they are just too hidden by their location, which is inside an industrial courtyard they share with a brewery. I discovered last time I was there for dinner that they also serve breakfast, so I'm going to try that out this weekend. I highly recommend trying this restaurant - you won't be disappointed!
We were looking for a new place close to home. This was close and what a pleasant surprise. The relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff and good food made for a very enjoyable meal. The location is a little unusual but well worth the search. I can't wait to bring friends for a night out.
This place is the best! They opened on a Sunday for my brunch group and it was great, The menu was perfect as were the prices. The only thing I would say is if you go with a bigger group plan accordingly as there are two people one in the kitchen and other out front, needless to say it took a few minutes, but it was worth it.
Had dinner here. Great service! Excellent food quality and great selection. Strong cocktails and great atmosphere. Coming back again even living 20mi away.
Cool building! Recommended!
Great brunch on Sunday! Portion perfect for someone not carbo loading but enjoys great fresh Mexican breakfast items!
Amazing food and very reasonable prices. Tough to find but worth the search.
