Frommer's Review

In the heart of San Blas, on an atmospheric street just off the plazoleta, Greens is one of Cusco's most stylish and romantic restaurants. The intimate and often crowded space has deep-green walls with modern art, an open kitchen, and a handful of candlelit tables mixed with hipster sofas near the fireplace for more informal dining. The soundtrack of laid-back dance beats, the creative and funky menu, and the reasonable prices appeal to a cool young crowd. The decor, presentation, and quality of the food are unusual in most parts of Peru; in fact, Tanya Miller, the restaurant's owner, previously worked in several London restaurants. On the menu, you'll find steak, chicken, and curries, all excellent. Try the beef tenderloin in red-wine-and-onion sauce, served with raisin rice, or the tropical chicken curry with bananas, peaches, and strawberries. On Sunday, the restaurant features a roast of chicken, potatoes, veggies, and homemade apple pie that has become locally famous; it's by advanced reservation only. Happy hour (two-for-one) is every evening from 6:30 to 8pm.
