I've eaten at the West Portal and Fillmore locations, and have been very happy with the food. It is not completely authentic, as there is a bit of fusion done with the food. But the lomo saltado rocks, and the biftec ala parilla is very good as well, although I liked the biftec a lo pobre better.
I thought the lomo saltado was so darn good! The beef strips were so juicy ... it reminded me of my grandma's lomo saltado....I wanted to repeat but it was a little too expensive so I couldn't ! hahaha
Our waiter was very friendly so we didn't have any service problems.
We called to make a reservation for 8 Peeps..they told us we had to make a reservation for 5 or 10 peeps..were totally non accomodating or flexible.
This is stupid since the better restaurants are totally accommodating and flexible..who ever heard of dictating to the customer how many peeps they to reserve for..its the other way around..what are we supposed to do week out our dinner guests or invite peeps we dont want..
Sucky policy and none of us will ever eat there! Too many great restaurants in the City to put up with some Stupid BS Reservation policy!

I didn't like this restaurant, Expensive Fusion, non authentic, extremely small portions, I had to go at another restaurant after my meal at Fresca
