Piolin Peruvian Restaurant Hartford?

I am meeting friends next Saturday night for dinner here. I am not familiar with the restaurant or area. Menu looks interesting and enticing. Not a mention here, anyone been?

      i think there are two piolin peruvian rests in Hartford--one that's been around for many years, on New Britain Ave, across from the little strip of stores that includes Roma Bakery--i recently drove down Franklin Ave and saw sign for another just opening Piolin Peruvian--looks like it might be same owners? Do you know which one you're going to?

          nice, def NOT fancy--family place--big TV going--i've only been there a few times--very good chicken with a nothing special salad (iceburg) some kind of really addictive popcorn/nut thing in bowls on table--i think they serve beer and wine.

          tiny, congested parking lot, really feels like a hole in the wall but once inside feels clean, nice people--if only speak english (as i do :-( ) language can be a tad of prob in ordering but no big deal really. very neighborhood
