🍽️ A Generous Plate

On Jamaica Avenue in Woodhaven, the menu moves between sauced noodles, sandwiches, and familiar Peruvian plates. Tallarín a la huancaína with bistec is the clearest anchor, with a mild, flavorful sauce. For a full meal, the generous portions make the noodle and steak plate an easy centerpiece.

Pan con chicharrón offers the sandwich route, while arroz chaufa and savory anticuchos widen the choice beyond noodles. The interior stretches back from the front windows, with closely spaced tables, pink walls, and bright ceiling lights. It reads as a straightforward neighborhood dining room, with the menu doing more of the talking than the decor.

Weekday hours run from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Weekend service starts at 9:30 a.m. and closes at 9 p.m. You can aim for an earlier weekend meal or a weekday lunch after opening, then pick between noodles with steak, a pork sandwich, rice, or skewers.
