Los Portales De Venezia - Arequipa

I was told that someone didn't miss the perfect sunset of this balcony, so it went around 17.30 a.m., order a drink pisco sour, it makes me almost drunk because I rarely drink, I had to agree, it's a nice drink....The main purpose is to watch the sunset and make photos. it makes my day.

We used the lunch special menu (3 courses for 20 soles) and eating was great, but this place is really all about the location. the restaurant is located on a balcony in the first floor with a view of the plaza de armas (sunny side) with a fantastic view of the magnificent cathedrale of arequipa. can not think of a better way to spend lunch.

Blick is amazing here, especially for sunset. we only have a coffee that was good enough. the staff was friendly and gave us ponchos when it got colder!

I went with family, we ordered Familiar VEGETARIAN pizza, but they just gave us a pizza without mushrooms and vegetables (the pizza just have 4 basil, 5 asparagus and cheese. And it wasn't good enough for the price. They have to improve the decorations and...organize the floor tables.

This restaurant have an attractive price, 12 soles, for the menu del día (the day specials). But the food quality is terrible. I went with my husband last week for lunch. We asked for the ceviche, and the soltero de queso as starters. The ceviche...was not a great option, it was not looking great and the taste do not allow us to continue eating. The soltero de queso was slightly better than the ceviche, but the cheese do not taste right. The main course was called cubierto de langostinos, which was a sort of breaded shrimps, but instead it was like a big pancake with little shrimps. And I had spaghetti. We left almost everything. And for dessert, it was like a jello. The place have a nice view from the plaza de armas, and you can have a table in the balcony. But besides the view, the food quality does not worth it. We are not a couple that normally complain about the food, but this place needed to be rated, so no more tourists commit the same mistake. Also the place main room looks like it is not clean very often.
