It is pretty much the only decent restaurant in Huánuco. The choices are pretty good, however, the pizza is made on a pre-baked dough, which doesn't make it taste anything near freshly baked. The next day I tried the lasagne, which was good. Also the desserts were acceptable.

I went to this place with my parents and just loved it! The "super special" lasagna and the "sancho" pizza are the highlights of this great venue in the downtown. Maybe you have to wait for a table but worth it.
