Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely top level service and food quality, dishes are elaborated but without compromising the taste which we found absolutely delicious. We shared a starter and a main each, accompanied by a delicious glass of red wine. Absolutely recommended

I don't usually provide feedback online on restaurants but I'm making an exception as I was extremely disappointed by my experience at Cicciolina. The quality of the food is clearly not at the level one would expect for a "gourmet" restaurant with such high prices....The meat that I ordered was too cooked and was immersed in a sweet marmelade. I asked the waiter to take out that marmelade but when my plate came back to me, half of the food had disappeared. The quinoa salad barely had quinoa in it and was immersed in a greasy sauce. Probably one of the worst value for money in Cusco.More

We were lucky enough to have Cicciolina 3 times on our trip and all were delicious! Our first meal was a packed picnic lunch supplied to us on a private tour. The food was so good we decided to go to their restaurant. Oh that...chocolate cake!!! Dinner was amazing and so we returned to their casual cafe the next day for lunch. Even simple meals were above and beyond our expectations. We wish we had this restaurant and cafe at home!!More

I simply needed to get some lunch, but was not prepared to enjoy the great testing and looking meal. There is a basic way to serve the meal and there is a unique way to prepare it and make it awesome.

Love the food here. Have been multiple times, solo and with friends. I trust the food and food preparation. Great service, atmosphere, and wine list as well. Probably my favorite place in Cusco so far.

Visited the restaurant on one of our evenings in Cusco on recommendation and it definitely lived up to expectations. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the menu had a wide choice of options. We both chose Alpaca steak which was beautifully presented and...very tasty. We also enjoyed dessert.More

I had read many reviews about the restaurant, and it was recommended to me by an associate. I’m so glad I went. I started with the scallops and yes they are over salted, but I broke it down and realized that the polenta cake is...the culprit. I hope the chef reads these reviews and modifies the recipe. There’s no need for all the salt. The dish is full of flavor and doesn’t need much salt.. The Osso Buco was excellent and I love that they served it with the bone marrow. I had a simple scoop of vanilla ice cream and coffee for dessert. Oh, and I had wine with dinner. I had a martini to start without vermouth. The service was exceptional. Everyone working there was helping to manage my table and every other table for that matter which is unusual. I haven’t seen that often. Congratulations and well doneMore

We were curious to explore Peruvian fusion food and were blown away by the creativity of Chef Louis Alberto Sacilotto. The venue is cosy and the menu is original. The tapas with octopus on fried yuca a must try! The white fish tirado starter was...to die for and beautifully presented. The chef clearly uses only the best ingredients. For the main, the salmon from Chile, cooked perfectly on the barbecue, with its Japanese butter on top was served on a puree of yuka and yellow chilli was a great choice. We had a hard time choosing the deserts as they were all tempting and original, Pisco ice cream, where else to taste that?! We will definitely be back to taste more of this menu!More

Ate multiple bar tapas and the ceviche. The bar tapas were amazing with extra points to the rosbife one and the scallops. Check was of around 120 Soles.

Interesting food. Not the best. Really expensive and they charge you a lot for bread that is supposed to be a courtesy. Is just 1 visit only if you are curious. If you want to spend your money go there. If you want to experience...real food, go elsewhere.More

There is both a restaurant and a cafe. The cafe is opposite Hotel Ruinas. My review is about the restaurant. The cafe is also very good.
