Very nice place but food is awful.
By ,
Just to be fair, I need to say I don't really appreciate Fusion food that much. However, the food is quite salty. The Groupa I had is over-cooked and the veggies that come with it is extrememly salty. My friend had the seafood soup, and again it's salty. We ordered 3 desserts, the better ones are Pisco Ice-cream parfait, and Rice Pudding filled philo cone with Rasin ice-cream. The service is not very good either as we asked the waiter if he can speak English, he said no, but then he didn't even try to find us an english-speaking waiter. The waiting ime for the food is long and the pisco sour they served us taste really bad. The place is definitely nice especially sitting on the patio you can see the ruins lit up by nice lightings. We were told that the tour to the ruin is included; however, this is not true, and regular admission does apply.

Outstanding and Different
By ,
The setting is spectacular, but the food at this Italo-Peruvian-modern cuisine restaurant is what really makes this place special. The rabbit risotto was beyond belief, as was the tiradito for appetizer. I only wish that I could keep on eating, there were so many dishes I wanted to try. Did I mention the scenery? Don't igve it another thought.

quite interesting, very good tour guides
By ,
it's really just a huge stack of bricks, as the other poster said, but having the tour guide explain the culture that built them and the history is interesting. they have a little garden of traditional peruvian plants and a little zoo of animals that is interesting. the hairless dogs and indeed freaky.

Intro to Lima
By ,
We sort of discovered this place on our first day in Peru and found it fascinating. The library-stacked bricks (vertical instead of horizontal) were not seen again on the trip. It's a huge complex still being excavated and our guide, Alex, despite claiming to only speak Spanish and Japanese well, was very informative. The hairless dogs running around the complex, though strikingly ugly, were interesting--a high body temp makes them popular for keeping sick children warm. Admission is free, though, of course, tip your guide.
