"Huge portions" of "superb Peruvian specialties" such as ceviche, fried rice and lomo saltado star at these "small", "cozy" joints in South Beach and Westchester; decor may be "very modest", but servers "treat everyone well", making the experience "always a treat" "without breaking the bank."

Ceviche Alcalan was a nice mice mix to start with. One portion easily served two. Nice spicy taste - we selected the medium spicy one - a good choice.
El lomo saltado was a nice continuation - also large enough to share. Nice wine suggestion to match both dishes! We will be back!

All of our meals were fabulous. Ceviche was delicious, and the combinado al charlan was amazing. Great option for Peruvian food in west Miami!

More Treats: If visiting the location on 40th Street, check out the adjacent "tiendita" for Peruvian sweets, seasonings and arts and crafts.

Deft Theft: Lunch specials from $5.95 to $10 are a steal.
