Killa Cocina Andina

Centro HistóricoCusco

8.6

A stone-vaulted room off the Plaza de Armas taking Andean ingredients seriously without turning them into museum pieces: alpaca loin with uchucuta, trucha ceviche with tumbo, a quinoa risotto that converts skeptics nightly. Pisco sours arrive properly frothed. It sits squarely on the tourist path and prices accordingly for Cusco — still fair — and the ground-floor tables by the kitchen run warmer than the drafty mezzanine.

Order this

  • Alpaca loin with uchucuta
