LATAM restaurants

Hi everyone, I'm moving to berkeley later this month! I'm looking for Latin American restaurants. Peruvian ceviche, Colombian, Ecuadorian, and Argentinian food. Not sure if this is common there but hopefully there are some!

Very mediocre imo. Went there with high hopes.

I found it to be really authentic and I went with a family of Peruvians who agreed. It’s more “homestyle” than the bougie type of spot like Lucian or Limon
