The Location

A TASTE OF THE ANDES

Located in Palacio Nazarenas, a timeless palace in the heart of the city of Cusco, Mauka's interiors give natural materials a contemporary flare. A short stroll from Plaza de Armas, the restaurant is at the cultural epicenter of the city.

A minimal wooden table with four chairs sits against a textured beige wall, sunlight streaming in and casting shadows. Four small dark plates are placed on the table, one at each seat.

Snow-capped mountains under a cloudy sky, with sunlight softly illuminating the peaks. Rolling hills with patches of shadow are visible in the foreground.
