Everything there is great. My favorites are the lomo and the half chicken. Best Peruvian in Stamford!

One dish I knew I had to have while back in town was Lomo Saltado - and Viva absolutely delivered. The dish was exceptional, with authentic flavors and a depth that made every bite memorable. I enjoyed the meal as much as I enjoyed being back in town. The service was excellent, and the experience was also a good reminder that I need to make more progress with my Spanish.
