Was in town visiting a friend who took my fiancé and I here! Yummy fusion food. I had the garlic noodles with added shrimp. He had the tallarin soltado. Then we had a side of chili wontons which I really enjoyed. Noodles were just a little bit salty for my taste, but the flavors were great! Convoy always has such great food options. Don't forget to check this one out!

This is a great fusion Peruvian spot that's also dog friendly! There was ample indoor and outdoor seating and our party of 4 + furchild were seated immediately on a Saturday during lunch time. Parking wasn't too bad but I can imagine it can get hectic since they're located in front of a busy street. I loved both the fried yucca and the seasoned fries so much - might I say they were fried to perfection and had the perfect crunch and texture! The lomo saltado with garlic noodles was tender and flavored well - something I'd totally get again. Also loved their house special spicy mayo and chimichurri sauces. Overall a great option if you want some flavorful carb options. Portion and prices were really reasonable which is always a win in my book.

Finally get to try this place. A cute place to hangout with your best friends for drinks and food. Sam and Abigail were super friendly and helpful. The food I ordered is Mojo pork, very tasty and I added an egg lol. It's a bit hard to find parking but that's normal in this area I guess.

What a great place! The food was great! We had Plantains, fried Yucca, Paella, Lomo Saltado, Ropa Viejas, and Garlic Noodles with chicken! Drinks were good, too! I had the Sangria Slushi which was fantastic! Aaron was our server and was very attentive. We never had to call him over as he checked on us often! The ambiance was set with great music that set the mood! We had a big table that allowed us to share entrees family style! Thank you, Flama Llama, we'll be back!

Thursday, 5-02-2024: When we visited our son, he and his girlfriend treated us to this wonderful restaurant. This is one of their favorite restaurants. It's a cute, bright, little eatery and there were only two people working the floor so the service was just okay. The food was extremely tasty and we savored every bite. All four of us ordered the Ropa Vieja. There was so much food that I and my son's girlfriend requested the to-go boxes. The dish tasted even better the next day. We can't wait to return and try the other dishes!

Cool spot off Convoy. Came with my family and had a great time. We tried numerous dishes, Mojo Pork, Ropa Vieja, Paella, Garlic Noodles and washed down with a nice and strong Sangria Slush. All were delicious. Sam expertly assisted us with our menu selection as it's the first time here for us. Will revisit in the future.

Cool little spot. Nice Latin vibe; they play salsa classics while your enjoying your food and drink. As a fellow Peruvian, there aren't many Peruvian restaurant in the SD area. This one here is definitely worth checking out and the waiters are very attentive. The food is prepared well. I only wish they had more of the dishes on the menu; but it's ok.
