I have meant to check this restaurant out for some time and I finally made it. A visually appealing restaurant from the moment you enter with lots of greenery. Friendly and helpful staff, explained the Peruvian tapas style meal to us. Drinks were delicious. Started with the gulf shrimp which was very tasty but a little awkward to eat as a group of 4 since it was one shrimp and required removal from the shell. The lamb sausage was spectacular and easy to share. We also had (not photographed) the roasted beets salad and pork shoulder, both amazing. Finished with the arroz con mariscos which was absolutely phenomenal. Too full for dessert. Maybe next time.

This was a really delicious, creative meal with plenty of vegetarian choices. It's expensive, but worth it. Snow peas - had a really nice crunch to the peas themselves, and from the toasty quinoa topping. The sauce had a fresh, herbal flavor. Jalapenos - a crispy fillo pastry like texture, with a creamy interior and a delicious, tangy sauce on the side. Like an elevated jalapeno popper. Asparagus ceviche - the asparagus was fragrant and had a nice snap to the texture. The leche de tigre is a chilled potato and leek soup, with some fresh tartness to call back to a regular ceviche. The parmesan crisp added a nice crunch and savory, cheesy flavor. Roasted beets - creamy, tart, and just the right amount of sweet. The beets had just the right balance of earthy flavor. The greens lighten up the dish just the right amount. Mint "flan" - I almost skipped dessert and am really glad I didn't, because this was probably the best dish. The custard is incredibly soft, not as firm as typical flan. The syrup wasn't too sweet, and the layer of foam and mint syrup on top added a unique touch.

Cute, quaint spot , perfect for date night If you want to watch your pockets, I would suggest that you skip the initial appetizers, for the price and portion we could've done without. But the medium and Lodge play where the star of the show although they come with the price tag.( $100 for the Lomo ) every bite seemed to be worth it. The lobster if you're a seafood lover was amazing and the sauce it's cooked in you could literally pour that on everything . Will definitely be coming back here .

My friend and I had a lovely dinner at Llama Inn. We got the Lamb Sausage snack, the Roasted Beets, the Pork Shoulder Escabeche, and the Arroz con Mariscos, and the Flan for dessert. Overall the food was delicious. Our favorite was the Roasted Beets dish, which was well balanced in flavor and texture. I also enjoyed the Flan - it was uniquely prepared and was not overly sweet. The only downside is that the lime flavor for thr Arroz con Marisco was a bit overpowering, although the seafood was fresh and delicious. We also got a round of cocktails, which were excellent. The staff were also friendly and attentive. The space itself was very slick with some cute branding by their llama logo. And there is a nice outdoors space. All in all, it is a nice experience, and I would recommend!

I'd agree with most of the other reviews saying that while the food is quite good for the most part, it is overpriced and some of the dishes were a little off. Does seem that they're trying too hard to be cool and hip with the peruvian/asian fusion. Service was nice though and the vibe of the place was cool.

We opted for the Trust the Chef ($80 per person) which came with 9 dishes for us to try. Food was good, however, one dish was the prawn and they definitely could have at least given 2 prawns instead of just 1 little prawn for 3 people to share. For drinks, we got the La Santa and Llama Del Rey and they were both good. Service from the bussers was attentive like refilling water and clearing the table. The waiter who took our order was just okay.

Great food. Got the snow peas, roasted beet salad, pork collar, and flan. The snow peas was pretty unique, I felt like the beet salad wasn't anything special but still good, the pork collar was great because it wasn't a super fatty piece of meat which is what I prefer. The dessert was a flan with some kind of mint sauce on top. It wasn't too sweet and pretty refreshing. Definitely recommend it. Service was pretty slow. Also had to wait a while between the snow peas app and mains.
