    Arroz con Leche latte
    Kristina F.

    Hey reader, don't be shy, just come here and get the sandwich. But like for real, the butifarra sandwich was soooo good. Sliced jamon de pais (which is less like American-style ham and more like lechon), topped with aji sauce, topped with pickled red onions, on a fresh baguette-style bread that was like legit perfect. I got it with yucca fries that I liberally doused with their aji verde, which was spicy and addictive. The sandwich was massive; you could probably share it, though you may not want to. My husband got the lomo saltado, which he said was good, but I was admittedly too immersed in my sandwich to have any strong opinions on it. An iced arroz con leche latte made for a fantastic sweet treat to wrap up the meal; I enjoy my coffee creamy and sweet, but this one was straight up dessert. Super indulgent. Service was really friendly. The restaurant vibe was casual and low-key. Everything was great. So anyway, yeah, just oblige your curiosity and get the sandwich. Totally worth it.

    BUTIFARRA sandwich with fries, blood orange soda, ají sauce and pickled peppers! (SO SO GOOD!)

    I was so fortunate to randomly wander into this restaurant! I spotted it from across the street at the Chevron gas station and saw that it was a Peruvian restaurant. Their menu is very extensive and I received a recommendation from Karla who happens to be the executive chef. She was so friendly and courteous! She recommended the BUTIFARRA. This sandwich was phenomenal! It was half a pound of a specially prepared pork. It was on a toasted house-made French bread with lettuce, special Ají sauce (SHMACKIN) and pickled onions. It came with a side of non-seasoned (thank you) fries. The dining area is decorated with a mural and had some salsa music playing in the background. The restaurant and restroom are super clean! I will definitely find my way back here again!

    Came by to try this new place an hour before closing and service was great. We asked our server for his recommendations and they did not disappoint. Pasta was delicious and hot too.. arroz con leche with almond milk was delicious.

    First in line on a Sunday morning and we're greeted with warm smiles and hearty HELLOs! The greeting is always the first thing I notice here as they work to memorize names, faces, and personal orders. Our food took maybe 15 minutes to receive, but we simply sat and enjoyed the bright murals on the walls as well as the other Peruvian artifacts on display. Go visit. Go often!

    I had Alli Kaphiy bookmarked for a while and finally got a chance to try it. There is a small parking lot attached that made parking easy. The interior of the restaurant is spacious and decorated with a nice mural on the wall. There are several tables for dine-in. Although it was lunch time, we were able to order off the dinner menu as well. Prices were moderate with good-sized portions, and service was very friendly. We ordered the ceviche mixto and pescado sudado. I was less familiar with pescado sudado, but the waitress said that the restaurant owners are from Northern Peru so they offer some Northern Peruvian dishes. Both dishes were very tasty, and the ceviche was quite spicy (granted, we opted for it to be spicy since they inquired whether we wanted it spicy). We also ordered the chicha morada and maracuya to drink, but both were a bit diluted and also a bit pricey at $7.50 each, so I might just go with water next time. Overall, food and service were excellent and I am excited to have another Peruvian restaurant in Long Beach. I can't wait to return and try more off of the menu!

    Got The Sausage ($10.75). I asked the waitress if it came with potatoes. She said it comes with fries. I was really hoping to get the home styled potatoes as seen on other pictures on Yelp, but no worries. The Sausage is a good tasting breakfast sandwich. Good quality bun. Flavorful sausage. Generous amount of eggs. If you want some heat, try there Aji Verde sauce. Service was very friendly and prompt. No issues on parking since there are plenty of parking spaces available in the strip mall where AK is located.

    Butifarra sandwich
    Sasha S.

    I just ate lunch here. The music was very enjoyable The ladies serving were very nice. I ordered the Butifarra Sandwich. It was absolutely delicious. The meat was so juicy, the sauce was delicious, and the bread was crumbly and warm. I cannot wait to try more items next time.

    The Chimú

    Been in here 3 times ! My wife loves the coffee Arroz con leche is her go to But this time we decided to try the food We ordered the chimú and it did not disappoint Taste was on point Serving was generous and lastly the service is always amazing

    FOOD: ordered takeout on a Friday afternoon. We got... The Chimu sandwich with potato fries. Delicious. The chicken is tender and flavorful. The bread is perfect for this complex sandwich. The fries are battered and good. They traveled well. Sesame crunch chicken salad. Fresh vegetables and a well seasoned, breaded chicken cutlet. Tumi salad. A fresh salad with a large quinoa patty. The patty was soft and sort of reminded me of egg foo yung. I want to mention how good the salad dressing was. A sesame vinaigrette that compliments the salads. The Suprema burger with yucca fries. The burger was so good. Beef patty, Italian sausage patty and a beautifully fried egg. Would definitely recommend this. The yucca fries were bland compared to the potato fries. The green salsa was spicy and a nice consistency. Beverages were an Inca cola and a strong hazelnut coffee. The coffee was made right in front of me with fresh espresso. SERVICE: Cynthia was awesome. The food was ready when I got there and neatly packaged. AMBIENCE: clean, large restaurant in an unassuming little strip mall.

    Chan-Chan Flatbread
    John V.

    First timer at Alli Kaphiy. Had heard about this place through social media. Was hoping to get breakfast but had lunch instead. Had the Chan-Chan sandwich and flatbread. Pretty good! Flat bread was definitely better. Also had the PB&J latte and a cappuccino. Coffee was okay. Overall great service, friendly staff, and wide menu. Their dishes looked good. Definitely want to come back for breakfast or sit down.

    Butifarra sando w/ fries
    Rob E.

    Got the butifarra sandwich...UNREAL! Jamon was perfectly done, fresh veggies and that baguette style bread was insanely perfect. Asked the gentlemen who rang me up what the most ordered sandwich was and this did not disappoint. Ordered it to go and within five minutes I was out. Great job to the staff, beginning of my weekend is going phenomenal. LFG I'll be back soon!

    Ceviche served only weekends
    Ali I.

    Don't sleep on this place!! First off - the chef, Karla, is a gem. I met her while volunteering for a local indigenous gathering. I was so excited for the opening of her brick and mortar because the food she made for our event was always incredible. Her family also works with her so it is a very homey, loving vibe. The servers/baristas were helpful and smiling. Everything we tried here exceeded my expectations. You can really taste the quality and skill in everything. The coffee drinks really surprised me because they weren't too sweet and you could really taste the coffee along with the subtlety of the flavors. We tried the arroz con leche and the pb&j. Both were super good but I loved the pb&j because it was a unique flavor with a nice touch of peanut and fresh strawberry jam. Bufitarra was delicious. I think what sets these sandwiches apart is again the quality of the ingredients. The pork was juicy and flavorful and I don't even like pork like that. The bread is really good too. The aji sauce is good w the right amount of spice. We got the yuca fries which were nice and crispy as well. Def a shareable sandwich as it's huge. We also got the ceviche which is only sold on weekends. Bomb! Again, you can taste the quality of ingredients. The stars were the mahi mahi, mussels, octopus and calamari. So fresh and the leche de tigre was so good and very lime forward. At the end wrap up the lettuce and drink the leche! They have coffee, sandwiches, some breakfast items and burgers on weekdays. Weekends they have other specials available. Def will be back!

    Chan-Chan with French fries. Delish!
    Sarah R.

    So excited to try this local spot! Right away, we were greeted with friendly "Good mornings" and the restaurant itself was colorfully decorated and flooded with beautiful natural light. WOW This coffee and sandwich establishment did not disappoint! All their lunch specials come with either French fries or yuca. We ordered: * The Chan-Chan- all pork chicharron sandwich on a house-made toasty French baguette. Could've easily shared this with someone else and been stuffed. It was jam packed with lots of meat, which was balanced out by the tangy marinated red onions. Really tasty combo with their special aji sauce, which did have a nice spicy kick to it. I think my favorite part was the French bread... warm, toasty, nice crunch when bit into. Yum! * The Royal- the meat on this burger was soo juicy! The over medium egg exploded onto the fries and it was heaven. Could've shared this combo and been satisfied also. The Yuca fries were so special! I've never had yuca before and it tasted like the potato wedge's cousin. Delish! * Arroz con leche- ordered my coffee over ice and it was amazing! Creamy, strong coffee taste with an horchata flavor. Definitely recommend I would 100% come back to try more of the items on their menu!

Odd behavior to tell someone what they can and can't do at an establishment considering it's called a coffee AND wine bar. Maybe this is something to advertise on your yelp and website but a "laptop free zone" after 4pm is pretty ridiculous for potential customers who were just looking to eat and work. I almost feel like he just told me that because I was going to order a salad and a non alcoholic beverage and wasn't planning on ordering much. As the other 1 star reviews mention "pretentious behavior" so it's either the cashier or whoever it was is being pretentious as others mentioned or RACIST... Kinda odd to dictate what I do on my own accord while I'm a patron at your establishment. If I ordered food and a drink but chose to open my laptop, are you going to ask me to leave? Doesn't really seem customer centric. Considering that I've worked on my laptop at dine-in restaurants, it's pretty odd behavior to display. Also, considering that this is not a club, and there's no live music, and there were only 3 people sitting in there, I think I would have been fine to sit there quietly in a corner with my laptop. 1 star for the experience and weird behavior.
