Fodor's Review:

The name refers to the passion chef Myrta Pérez possesses for taking traditional dishes and making them into something special. Pérez loves to present her dishes in unexpected ways—for example, the flank steak was rolled into a cylinder and stood on one end. But what makes this dish remarkable is the slightly sweet tamarind sauce that brings out the meat's earthy flavors. If you're a seafood lover, start with the lemony ceviche, then move on to the Lobster medallions broiled in butter. Owner Norma Guadaloupe, who will no doubt greet you at the door, often wears a brilliant shade of red that matches the main dining room's walls. It seems to be a case of a food lover wearing her heart on her sleeve.
