Profile

This venue is closed.

This Hell's Kitchen Peruvian hole in the wall has no liquor license, no pisco sours, and no rotisserie chickens. But it does have sublime ceviche: tidbits of sea bass, whole shrimp, and squid in an expert lime-juice marinade. The caliber of the ceviche augurs well for the rest of the menu, which shrinks considerably during the week, so go on Saturday. And don't leave without ordering something yellow—one of those national specialties suffused with spicy, marigold-yellow aji pepper sauce.

Recommended Dishes

Ceviche de pescado, $10; aji de gallina, $12; chichi morada, $2

I believe this spot is closed. My January '07 visit found the storefront empty. I now see a Chowhound discussion that says it closed in October '06.
