The food is good but it is definitely one of the gringo/tourist restaurants in town, which is why they can charge so much money for their food.

So good! Excellent ramen, the noodles were a little weird, but delicious broth, chunky, tasty pork, and generous toppings. Fantastic maki, amazing gyoza. Everything was freshly and thoughtfully made. A great small-town outpost of oddly, authentically Peruvian Nikkei food.
