“ Outstanding experience at this Peruvian restaurant in Zurich. The service is remarkably friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment. The food is incredibly tasty, especially recommending La Causa and the flavorful Lomo Saltado. The dessert might not do justice to the place, but overall, a visit well worth it. I would come back! ”
