Frommer's Review

If you've never tried Peruvian food before, don't miss an opportunity to eat at Andina. If you have had Peruvian food before, don't miss an opportunity to eat at Andina. It's that simple. I've been known to eat here several times in the same week, because I just couldn't get enough of the spicy bread-dipping sauces, the grilled octopus, and the beautifully presented causa (mashed purple potatoes flavored with lime and layered with savory fillings; I like the smoked trout best). Because there is so much on the menu to try, I suggest sticking with the small plates and trying lots of them. Also, be sure to have a glass of the unusual chicha morada, a juice made from purple corn.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
