"Okay, that's a hard one to describe! when we first came in, the first impression was not the greatest. it seemed a little, maybe dirty? I don't know if that's the right word. like a little worn, table was wobbly, needed a wipe and other little things. it had the ol’ “hole in the wall” felt at it. the chef and the owner seem to lead the place, and he is very welcoming. he has a rather strong personality that is a little too much, but he grows on them. he talks about his history in miami and how his buffet miami eating with Peruvian influence reflected. immediately after we had set ourselves, he did not bring us the menus, he said he knew what for our 2 years old, went and got a plate with rice, a chicken drum and a piece of bread. he got menus, but somehow pushed for us to experience the buffet with this traditional miami / peruvian eating. we decided to give him a pfeife. he also spoke about this juice, that he makes that a baptism is mixed, it comes with the buffet and they serve themselves. it was really delicious. they can serve suppe, he had spicy seafood, bark meat and chicken soup. it had not really much meat in one of them, it was more the tasteful broth that had rice or sweet in them. I didn't think I liked it, but it was great. when they go into the “buffet” area, he says in the ground, they can choose what they want, but really asks them to get it off the Peruvian, and yes, why not. he continues to throw all food on top of each other and throws this juice/ sauce everywhere. pork and super delicate chicken. pork and root vegetables. Honestly, it was so good? overall it is the feeling that this place has. the chef is very personal and you go back because you eat and know his personality. it is not a traditional restaurant experience, it gives that miami culture vibe. if you are really worried about covid or germ, they probably are not the most convenient. they get the egg form a small dish with a scoop that everyone catches. the salsa people use are only in bowls on the theke that he says to take on the table, etc my biggest thing is that I went to pay, and he said the machine was down and asked if I could go to cash in the convenient business down on the road. when you look at other critiks, it looks like he's just trying to take cash. idk, what would have happened if we had credit cards right now. he has to put a sign on the window or something like it really seems deceptive. his bill or his acknowledgement has written the costs on a paper. Beyond that we had a fun experience and will probably go back!"
