Nazca Mochica - Calumet-Norvelt

The food was flavorful. The staff was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. I would say though as someone that doesn't eat meat. It would be nice to have more vegetarian or vegan options.

Got take out during restaurant week due to Covid. I must say I wasn't impressed overall. The only thing I really enjoyed was the appetizer which had potato, chicken salad, diced tomatoes, some sort of sauce, and olives. The entree was shredded chicken in some sort of sauce which honestly has no taste. There was a random boiled egg that brought nothing to dish as well as three small pieces of plain yuca. Don't even get me started on the desert. As you can see in the pic,

Really great! Ceviche was on point. Arroz con mariscos was tasty: has a satisfying, well balanced heat. Beef tenderloin is addictive. I'm ready for more!

My boyfriend and I went here for a date night and to try something new. We both loved it! The ceviche was amazing! For the main dish we split the Lomo Saltado, it was delicious! The dessert was quite tasty as well! Overall, I definitely recommend it!

I really like this little nook, located just a short walk from the main Dupont Circle area. I will say its pretty pricey (entrees and appetizers alike start at $20+ . The lamb was overly salty, but overall the food was fresh and flavourful. My favourite thing about this place is the ambiance. A friend and I sat out on the patio and they have done a great job decorating the whole place.
