"Super nice vibes!!! From the very beginning, Alan at the front desk was so gentle and attentive. Elina brought me the yummy Crema Catalana and delicious coffee, with the same friendly vibes I’ve felt all around Peru Talking with Livio, the owner, was another wonderful highlight—he made me feel warmly welcomed, almost like being at home :) To sum it up: excellent quality of service, clean toilets, and a beautiful view of Paracas Beach. Well done team!!! Gracias por esta super nice experience!"

"This was our favorite restaurant of our Peru trip. We came here twice and had the grilled octopus each time. We also had some of their ceviches, arroz, and chaufa. All of it is excellent, you can’t go wrong. Clean and tourist friendly!"

"Excellent seafood. Menu in both Spanish and English. I ate on 20 Feb 2026. Outside and inside seating. Restrooms were clean with seats on the toilet and toilet paper. The Coke Zero was ice cold. Two thumbs up from this North American"
