Reviews

At UCHU, every experience should be memorable. We’re proud of the kind words from our guests who share their love for what we do.

Best food in Cusco. A local recommended this restaurant for good steak. Food was amazing, presentations beautiful and service great. Fabulous, our server was very professional and knowledgeable about the items on menu and ingredients. I wish we found this place sooner so we could go back try more items on the menu

Maryam S

Came here to celebrate our anniversary 3 years ago, and it did not disappoint the second time. The alpaca steak, cooked on the stone, was very tender and it is easy to control the done-ness to your liking. It comes with 4 sauces, a potato side dish and a salad. Hubby really likes the sweet potato casserole. Staff are friendly and I really appreciate that they take their time to explain everything

Karen Menard

Este sin lugar a dudas fue uno de los mejores lugares que encontramos para disfrutar de carnes a la brasa y parrilla. Primeramente el ambiente está muy bien decorado se siente la calidez, el personal también es bastante amable y cortés y también sobre la carta que cuenta con diferentes opciones de cartes importadas y también nacionales y con una variedad grande de guarniciones que están bastante atractivos. Las bebidas igualmente están muy buenas
