The first time we ordered delivery from here, we were happy with the food. I had the pollo saltado; the hubs had a lomo saltado. He did say that the beef was a bit tough, and the chicken was a bit dry, but the seasoning and flavor were good, so we decided to give it another try. I don't know what was going on this last time... The hubs and I both got chicken, but every piece was dried out and over-fried, and it was just salty. I'm balancing out the number of stars between my first and second experiences, but I'm honestly not sure if I will be going back for a third. read more

The Lomo Saltado is amazing and that green sauce w fries is wow. And also the soup!! Overall services was great as well. They had 2 prices and I asked the girl in the counter why is that?.. so she said because they reward cash paying customer w lower price and the card company rewards the card paying customers with rewards points, similar to Gas stations company. Made sense to me.. overall they could just increase all prices by 5 or 10 percent, but they didn't want to do this..so overall, I just saved $2 when paying w cash since the bill came out to $50. Or like 4%. Like his their strategy, more than the gas stationed ,which is see the cash vs Card difference at $0.20. Or 5% different. For instance I went to Shell, and Cash Price per gallon was $4.66 but card price was $4.88. And when I fill up my 20 gallon tank, I'm like wow. read more

Excelente servicio y la comida muy fresca y deliciosa. Yo pedí un leche de tigre mix y muy rico

Ordered delivery from here and couldn't even finish my food because it was so salty. I ordered the lomo saltado and picked around the food, hoping I would get a less salty piece. They give a small amount of the green sauce and that was super salty too. They dumped the fries first, then the veggies, and lastly the meat, it wasn't all mixed. The meat was also very hard to chew. I can still taste the salt in my mouth. read more

Vey disappointed , we have some business to attend in Los Angeles , after we were done I was going to go back to another place but we were close to them so we give it a tried ,,, the waitress did not knew any thing about Peruvian food , so we order papa a la Huancaina , after waiting I got up and ask were is the is it? so another ten minutes it came ,, the souce was very watery , the taste was good so we decide to order a paella ,,, big mistake ,40 min later , rice was to sticky , very little sea food , did not brought us the Tenasa to brake the crab legs, I ask for it and nothing , 65.00 dlrs later ,so we ask for a box and give to a homeless ,, never again . read more

Came here for lunch today and the waiter was the one who was cooking. He took a very long time to bring our food out and when he brought my husbands plate he told me there was no more shrimp! Instead of telling me since the beginning. At this point o was mad already and just told him to put my husbands plate to go and we left read more

super cute spot me and my pals decided to check out that really deliverable on the meal the green rice soup was an absolute god send & the yucca was like a tasty thick french fry my table ordered 2 bistec a lo pobre (the meat dish with fried egg, rice, & fries) , arroz chaufa de pollo (some bread? chicken situation) , & tallarin saltado de camarones (a shrimp noodle dish) the group was satisfied with their meals although a bit salty but TASTY nonetheless sad they were out of the purple corn drink i just wanna know the taste also sad i don't know the latin American way to order an over easy egg I think it's credibly important to note that our waiter was the only one working thus he prepared all four of my groups meals now that's some honorable hard working business man moves PLEASE PLEASE NOTE THAT if you pay with card you can not tip on card so PLEASE BRING CASH FOR TIP read more

Incredibly delicious Loma Saltado and so reasonably priced too! I ordered a couple of these for a takeaway lunch, and the staff were so friendly, wearing masks and practiced good social distancing. It felt very cozy inside with real family style charm. I cannot wait to go back for more delicious Peruvian food. read more

Love this restaurant. Everything is always great and service is fast and nice. The ceviche is always soooo good. One of my favorite places in the area! read more

I've had a lot of Peruvian food in my life! From Peru, Chile and here in the states! I am SOOOOOOOOOO DISAPPOINTED!! I ordered two Lomo Saltados plates. The meat wasn't even the real meat they use for this meat! It was thin meat like for breaded steak! It was HORRIBLE and the state was terrible. This is the worst Peruvian food I've ever had!! NEVER AGAIN! read more

They are following social distancing regulations; you order from a distance if you walk in or you could call ahead. My order only took 15 mins of wait and everything was made fresh and packed nicely. Lomo saltado tasted delicious! Generous portions, we asked for pickled red onions and they gave us a good amount on the side. Reasonable prices too. First time there and they didn't disappoint definitely will order take out from them again. read more

I ordered some food from this place for delivery cause I had a craving for Peruvian food. The portion was great and soooooo yummy!

I live close by and haven't dined in yet, but I have ordered takeout twice now and I'm happy with the service and food. They have some vegetarian options which were really delicious (and convenient for my vegetarian husband)! I've also had the ceviche and papa rellena. All quite delicious!! They are very friendly and quick with making the food. I felt the portions were a nice size too. And I love that it's a family owned business. read more

I love Peruvian food. Moving from New Jersey to La it has been hard finding an authentic Peruvian restaurant that embodies the memories of the East Coast but this Place does a very good job filling my fix for maduros and pollo. read more

Bocata Kitchen - menu! - Peruvian Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Amazing. Had the ceviche mixto which was amazing! Fish, octopus, squid, scallops and onions also served with some corn nuts and corn.

Not up tot he hype. Still needs to improve all around. Maybe it's just me but every Peruvian restaurant I been to has really food bread this one had none. It seems to be a family run restaurant so only small staff. Food is good but should be bigger portions for the price. There was a large party already when we arrived don't know if that effected our service and portions. read more

Service was good. Food not that good I hate throwing away money $17 on a ceviche mixto it had this weird taste n the seafood was not that fresh. I didn't feel comfortable eating the fish in the ceviche it looked like it would give me food poisoning. Worse Peruvian food ever! Nope I will not recommend this place! read more

The time is 11:55 Saturday Feb 8th the owner should see this .. the lady answering the phone is completely disrespectful! She is horrible on the phone I couldn't even order my food she started using curse words because I couldn't understand her accent !! Horrible way to run a business terrible experience!! read more

Bomb!! I haven't dined in yet but my husband brought home dinner and it was soooo good.

I LOVE THEIR CEVICHE AND AJI SAUCE I was afraid at first to come here because they didn't have that many reviews and cause of the area but it's honestly so worth coming for! They have amazing prices which is rare for ceviche because it's usually expensive. I really enjoyed their service and I am definitely coming back since I live down the street. This place is a mom and pop restaurant y'all should really support this local business and their delicious authentic food read more

This is my favorite new restaurant discovery in South LA. All the dishes I've tried have a ton of flavor, seasoned beautifully. Exactly what I've come to expect from the best Peruvian food. The restaurant is also exceptionally clean and the service is terrific. I hope they stick around for a long time! read more

Check the order before leaving the restaurant. The pollo a la brasa wasn't grill with fire wood or the proper pollo a la brasa . The chicken had no flavor , and the amount of French fries was small for the whole chicken. NOT only that :I ordered it with rice n got salad.Very disappointing especially since I'm Peruvian and was treating my friend to her first Peruvian meal . Anyways I called back about the order and nothing was done as for costumer service given to me. Change management and cooks . read more

Best Peruvian food in the neighborhood! Usually if we're craving Peruvian we have to go to the Westside but now we don't! You'll easily walk or drive past it because it's on a busy street, but make sure to stop by. I ordered the lOmo saltado and it was amazing. The meat was extremely tender and flavorful! My husband had the chauffa de mariscos and it was amazing. My kids loved the food as well! Margerie (sorry if it's wrong) was our server and she was the best. Extremely attentive and charming! Very welcoming as well. She made the experience amazing especially with two little ones. If you stop by hopefully you get her. My husband and I agree that this is our new go to spot! I recommend you stop by if you're in the neighborhood! read more

The Lomo Saltado omg !! Super tender juicy steak. The food is made to order and the staff are supper nice. My husband got the pescado a lo macho. It was a great mix of sea food in a yellow pepper sauce. If you are going to an LAFC game or USC it's right the stadium. It's a great place to get some yummy homemade Peruvian food in LA. read more
