What customers say?

“ Our family is traveling in Peru. After visiting Machu Picchu and returning to Cusco, we chose this restaurant as our last meal of 2025—and it was an incredibly satisfying experience. From Alexander’s friendly service and witty conversation to the alpaca meat that melted in our mouths, everything exceeded our expectations. We had tried alpaca meat at two restaurants in Aguas Calientes, the town below Machu Picchu, but it was very tough there. This place was on a completely different level. We highly recommend the menu that lets you try all four types of meat. If you’re staying in Cusco, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit ”

“ 6 of us dropped into Mama Jama for some dinner. Place was empty on a Saturday night as we arrived but other reviews were positive and the menu looked good so we thought why not. We were not disappointed. Alexander was our waiter and he really looked after us. Food was very good, happy hour drinks from midday till 10pm kept the group going and Alexander's music was great for us. Eventually he let us take over the playlist and even got the group dancing where he joined in from time to time. I'm sure we were the entertainment for the staff, and the other customers that came in later seemed to also enjoy the liveliness. ”
