This is the best restaurant in Iquitos to visit! If you are wanting to try traditional food from Iquitos, visit! The fish is cooked 'a la plancha' so is not fried in oil or anything, completely healthy. Served with a boiled banana from the amazons. The salad consists of avocado, tomato and palm leaves, super yummy and not at all hard to eat. You must also try juanes, typical food of the selva, rice with meat inside, cooked in banana leaf. Very yummy, I highly recommend this place!

It is the best place to eat grilled crocodile and all kinds of regional food in Iquitos. It is a place you should go if you visit Iquitos.The restaurant is always busy and very hot.

Great local food at a very reasonable price frequented by locals. Service is a bit slow at taking orders but friendly and quick to the table if they've paid heed to your order.Make sure you ask for the sauces including the charapita and onion blend.

Omg the food here is amazing and cheap! There was a small line up for the pick up, but it moved fast. Portions here are enormous! I ordered the chicken rice wrapped in leaves and was pretty sure it could have fed a family of 3. Would highly recommend it as a place for local food.
