We visited the little chocolate store next door and decided that Las Gringas looked like a nice place to stop for a drink. We sat down and I noticed that they offered gluten free pizzas - as good gluten free food is hard to come...by in Peru, we decided to stay so I could eat. When I asked if I could have a menu I was told the kitchen didn’t open until 5pm. It was about 3.45 at the time. I had seen some reviews warning that despite advertising gluten free options, there was often low stock, so I checked that they did indeed have gluten free pizzas available. When told they did, my partner and I decided to wait the hour until the kitchen opened.
I asked again to order at 4.45 but was told to wait, and at 5pm told to go back to my table and the server would come to me. When he did, and I ordered, he informed me they had only had one gluten free pizza base in stock and that he had just sold it to another table (who had come in significantly later than us).
Not wanting to have waited for nothing, I ended up ordering a bowl of gluten free pasta. When my pasta was brought out, it was entirely the wrong order, meaning I then had to wait again for my actual order to be cooked. When my pasta did arrive, it was nice, but by no means worth the hour and a half wait!
The beer selection was incredibly overpriced and the service utterly disappointing. Sorry but no recommendation for this place, especially if you are expecting gluten-free (delicious chocolates next door though!)More
