"El Perú que no sabías que te estaba esperando. Hoy fui a cenar con dos amigos y mi pareja a este restaurante, y solo puedo decir lo encantada que quedé con el lugar. El ambiente es excelente, la atención y el cuidado en cada detalle son increíbles, y la sazón de cada platillo es un deleite refrescante. En lo personal, me recordó a mi hogar en Venezuela, cuando visitaba los mercados peruanos con mis padres y nos sorprendían con sus increíbles platillos y sazón. Si estás buscando una experiencia deliciosa y un ambiente acogedor, este es el lugar. ¡Volveremos, y con mucha hambre!"

"Peruano en Vigo Qué nos ha encantado este peruano, muy auténtico. No es habitual comer en un peruano cuando vienes a Vigo, pero era tarde, todo estaba lleno, lo vimos en Google con buenas reseñas y dijimos por qué no. Qué bien hicimos. Nos encanta una cuzqueña con canchitas. Pedimos yucas de aperitivo, la causa limeña y chufa de langostinos todo buenísimo de hecho no pudimos acabar con todo. Buena relación calidad-precio. Pagamos 21€ por persona sin y sin . El servicio muy rápido. Clientes y trabajadores peruanos."

"Vinimos a probar por las reseñas, ya que era nuestra primera vez en Vigo, al principio estábamos dudosos ya que no habia nadie, pero conforme fueron saliendo los platos quedamos a gusto. Hay cosas por mejorar pero la comida nos sentó muy bien. Y la chica que nos atendió muy noble."

"Estaba todo RIQUÍSIMO. Y para ser un peruano no es caro. El aspecto es de una cafetería normal y corriente pero la comida lo compensa con creces. La única pega que hubo es que son un poco lentos, aunque muy amables, y que faltó un plato por servir y ya había cerrado la cocina para cuando lo reclamamos. Pero se disculparon y nos invitaron a las bebidas (las de maracuyá son INCREÍBLES). Así que sin duda repetiremos y lo recomiendo 100%"
