"La Cusqueñita"

amazing experience, the food, the show the place is very nice

Delicious authentic food. The dishes are really large. I recommend trying the Cuy dish, it is their specialty. Live dance show around lunchtime. We had a great time overall.

If you are in Cusco and didn't eat here, you really missed out! The food is so well prepared and delicious. They also have live entertainment! I have always wanted to try beef tongue, so I tried the Lengua Atomatada and it was so good! We also ordered the jar of limonada...Wow! I'll definitely eat here again!

An authentic Peruvian food experience. The beef tongue in tomato sauce was delicious. The roast cuy was really good, the spaghetti pie it came with not so much, but overall an excellent meal.

great place for real Cusco cuisine, possibly the most famous in town and it can get packed, especially on weekends, so try to get in early. try the adobo — it’s not the most famous dish from the Andes but the best spice I’ve encountered in Peru

The place was almost empty when we were there (5 customers), but the food was amazing. I had the buffet ( s/ 40), and my wife had the roast lamb. It was big enough for two. Everything that I tried in the buffet was delicious....a rarity for a buffet. There was a really good band playing alternately with a dance group. They soldiiered on despite the lack of an audience and were really good.

Very nice and traditional food !!

Buffet starts around 7pm and has good selections of classic Peruvian dishes. It is an excellent way to try great tasting classical Peruvian dishes. It costs 40sol per person for buffet and it is well worth it. At around 8pm they have live music and traditional Peruvian dances with a wonderful dance team all included with your dinner. The dancing and live music goes on until 9:30pm or so. We had a blast and would highly recommend having dinner here!

Food was delicious and the portions huge, also very reasonably priced. We were there at about 1pm and enjoyed a dance show that went until 3pm. They recently moved, so don't try to get there by local maps, just ask any local, they know where's located

Great food, great ambience. We tried the fried guinea pig for the first time! Traditional experience and not expensive!!

Order the guinea pig but not only because there's a good chance you won't like it. Whatever you do don't get the fried version. Also, there's a little stage show with dancers. Also, this place is huge and the service is good.

Great place to enjoy local meals, keep in mind that it would be better if you share dishes since main dishes are enough for two.

The good food is really delicious and there is a show playing for the customers and you have a choice of a buffet or the menu. I ordered the Cut that was oven cooked. It was delicious and they put herbs in it to the give more flavor and a tall wide glass of chicha morado. Definitely recommended!!!

Delicious Peruvian cuisine at this "restaurante turistico" that costs about 20-25% less than the places around Plaza de Armas. Daily shows but be mindful of the hours; when I went (January 2022) they closed at 5pm daily...

Food was really good. Recommended by a local. Had live music and dance when we were there. Buffett starts at 7pm.

Restaurant, mostly frequented by locals. Has some dance shows too.

Good place to grab lunch. Classic peruvian fare. Not really vegeterian friendly except for a couple dishes. Their chicken with aji sauce was really good.

You get a complimentary set of corn bites with a good mint and onion(?) chutney to start with. Also there was a special peruvian dance show from 1-2 Pm when we dined here. At the end of the show the dancers come to the tables and take you to the stage for a small dance as well. Fun!

What a great experience! Came here for lunch and watched the free show. The food is amazing , any dish from the menu is good.

Great food and service. I highly recommend!

La Cusquenita’s “Santeed beef fenderloin” (Lomo Saltado) is one of the best dishes I’ve had on my trip to Peru. Hands down. It’s very similar to sautéed beef tenderloin, just much better. If you think this review is a joke, it’s far from that. Try it and see for yourself.
