The Peruvian and other South American food at this place is really special and delicious. Today our choices both included Andean sweet potatoes, which are not orange yams, but rather a delicate pale amber-colored potato, not as sugary as yams, but very delicious. Under Len's salmon and sauteed greens were two slices of baked sweet potato. Accompanying my slow-roasted pork sandwich I had a large portion of crisp but not greasy sweet potato fries.
The service is a little slow, but the decor is delightful. See Peruvian Slow Food for more photos from our previous visit.
Update -- this week's L.A.Times food section has a long article about Peruvian food: Hidden treasure: Peruvian restaurants in Southern California by C. Thi Nguyen. It only covers restaurants in L.A. though.
