Roca, the former general manager at the now-closed Peruvian restaurant Piqueo's in Bernal Heights, manages the front-of-house. Morris, who's worked as a residential remodeling project manager, runs the bar and back-of-house. Roca is Peruvian, but Morris is the cook, and learned about Peruvian cuisine from Roca's family. Roca and Morris, also completely transformed the space, which was formerly a branch of Wise Sons deli. There's a handmade straw octopus hanging above the bar, a quipu suspended like a jellyfish, blue kit-kat tiles.
