Noria - Newburgh

The food is excellent, but the service and decor leave something to be desired. However, I believe it's the best Peruvian cuisine in town. The Chicha Morada is particularly impressive.

I had the Parihuela (seafood soup) for $23, including tax, but it didn't come with any rice?! That's unacceptable.

I'm sorry to say this, but my experience did not live up to my expectations—not even close. The person taking our order made a mistake; we requested two salads but only received one. We asked for a dish to share the single salad she brought, but it never arrived. I had to go up to the counter to request it myself. What they refer to as a mixed salad was just a pile of iceberg lettuce, a couple of tomato slices, and a small piece of avocado. After I placed my entrée order, she returned to inform me that they were out of the meat I wanted, so I had to choose something else, which turned out to be quite bland. Overall, it was a very disappointing meal.

Running a successful restaurant involves managing numerous elements that can increase costs and reduce profit margins. In such a competitive area—where there are plenty of dining options within a five-minute radius—the establishment will need significant investments in organization, cleanliness, renovation, and décor to compete effectively. While we waited for our food, we ordered several appetizers, which allowed us to notice a roach infestation in the fluorescent lighting fixture above us. After paying our bill, we decided to leave and find dinner elsewhere.
