Fodor's Review:

You feel like a part of history at this beautiful restaurant, which faces the ruins of a 1,500-year-old pyramid. Excavations are ongoing, so you can watch archaeologists at work as you enjoy the breezes on the covered terrace. Rough-hewn columns hold up the dining room's soaring ceiling. This is novo andino cuisine, which puts a new spin on old recipes. Yellow peppers stuffed with shrimp are a great way to start, and the cabrito al horno (roasted kid) is a work of art. Wash it all down with one of many pisco preparations.

  • Keep in mind: Reservations essential.

Food was amazing and unexpected, and the ruins outside make the setting unbelievable.
