    The staff were friendly and had our table decorated for our birthday dinner. The food was great (although the sauce was a bit salty). I had the noodles with mushroom, and while I enjoyed it, the noodles didn't soak up the sauce like the rice saltados. The green sauce was a great spice topper and they brought us extra. I would've preferred the yucca fries to be cut thinner as they were a bit dense and not as crisp as I'd prefer. The Peruvian ice cream had such a unique flavor and the strawberry ice cream was fresh with chunks of strawberries. The patio was dog friendly and parking was very easy as they had their own lot.

    first time trying peruvian food. the drinks were good. i enjoyed my tiger milk shrimp. i was expecting the food to be spicy but it was not, still good though. we had the octopus appetizer and also tried another one that was good too. service was good.

    Delicious food! The service was very friendly and accommodating. The decor was very Peruvian authentic style that added to the charm. Will be back!

    Local restaurant that serves Peruvian food, we got the Empanadas filled with Mozzarella Cheese & Ham and Ground Beef, Pollo Saltado (Chicken strips sautéed with red onions, tomatoes, cilantro. Served with white rice & fries), daily special of the roasted chicken and fries, Alfajor (Cornstarch and flour cookies with Manjar Blanco in the middle, topped with powder sugar), & Passion fruit juice! The service was outstanding and the place is clean, cute, and inviting!

    We couldn't wait to try this Peruvian restaurant for our craving for Lomo Saltado, didn't disappoint at all, close to perfection. The meat was sautéd deliciously tender enough yet the soy sauce was way more than desirable which made it saltier. We enjoyed the causaus as well, both pollo and shrimp, visually appealing too! The service is friendly and ambience caters to families, big groups and most importantly any type of celebratory occasions. Definitely, a revisit is already planned...

    Rodrigo was an amazing server! He was extremely helpful with explaining the menu and giving recommendations. He even gave us some of their salsas to try out which were delicious and spicy. My family and I will definitely be back for some good food and good vibes :)

    Consistently excellent and authentic food paired with friendly service. The owners remain actively involved in the business, which shows in the quality and care they put into every detail. The ambiance is warm and inviting, decorated with beautiful Peruvian art that enhances the dining experience. My only suggestion would be to provide a printed, itemized receipt so customers have time to review their bill rather than being shown only the total on an electronic device.

    The BEST Lomo Saltado I've Ever Had! I'm a self-proclaimed connoisseur of Lomo Saltado -- it's my favorite dish, and I go out of my way to try it at every Peruvian restaurant I find. This place absolutely blew me away. At first glance, I thought it might be a little dry since there wasn't much sauce, but one bite in and I was hooked. The meat was perfectly cooked, so tender and full of rich, savory flavor, with just the right amount of juice soaking into the fries and rice. It was pure perfection -- easily the best Lomo Saltado I've ever tasted. The restaurant itself is adorable, cozy, and welcoming, and the staff couldn't be sweeter. You can tell they really care about the food and their guests. I'm honestly tempted to come back tomorrow just to have it again -- or maybe bring my grandchild and explore more of their amazing Peruvian dishes. Do yourself a favor and try this place -- you'll thank me later!

    I can't wait to return to this restaurant to experience more authentic Peruvian delicacies. My favorite dishes are in this menu. I tried two things for the Jan 25' ISCUYE... Empanadas - 5s Somo Saltado - 4 s I can't wait to return to try the pollo a la brasa. The restaurant is in a very convenient location in midtown in the heart of the Melrose neighborhood. the staff was very accommodating and friendly. Service was 5s. My return factor:100%

    We were introduced to this place by a local Americana-Peruvian friend. It's definitely a good place for Peruvian food -- which is delicious! We ordered Pisco Sou, Ceviche Clasico, Puloo A La Parrilla, Empanadas, Yucas Fritas, Anticuchos, and Delicia De Maracuya (dessert). We shared all dishes as a family style to taste all the tasty dishes -- definitely a good way to start out. We learned that this location, owned by the son, is related to the other Peruvian on 7th Ave (same name by the father). This location is newly opened and offered a more playful menu, not as traditional dishes. We have dined at the 7th Avenue location a few times. This is new location for us. We throughly enjoyed our experience here. The parking situation is a great improvement here. Cheers & happy dining.

    We had a great time celebrating my Husband's birthday here. The food and atmosphere was the perfect choice. They even have a fun birthday dancing man come out with sparklers to sing happy birthday and bring a little birthday plate. It's fun! The service was great. I definitely recommend this restaurant and will be back!

    My husband is Peruvian and this place is legit!!! We have eaten at Peruvian restaurants accross the country and this place is at the top. The service was excellent. They were busy but still attentive. Great atmosphere and clean. We loved the look. The food was the real star. You will see several reviews mentioning the lomo saltado and there is a reason why. It was great. The causa was awesome. The ceviche was great and can very in style slightly by region. This one leaned towards the creamy side. The flavor was excellent and spice level was great. No matter what you do save room for the lucama ice cream. They make it there and it is worth every calorie.

    I found my meal at Chullo substandard. Nondescript dishes, noisy venue and a generally unhappy experience.

GOOD! inspired by taco bell's baja blast hahahah). they TREATED us to all three of their current desserts on the menu. it was the most pleasant surprise i could've imagined. my favorite was the flourless chocolate cake! it was like a thick, rich brownie, had passion fruit cream to "lighten it up" and a caramel-like taffy on the bottom my brother and sister-in-law both said their favorite was the gulab jamun (which is basically like little fried dough balls/donuts, influenced by indian flavors and spices). the mille-feuille was also fantastic - the pastry was light and airy, cream wasn't too sweet and also very light, shaved cheese on top made it have a savory bite, and the jam alongside it was strawberry rhubarb. service is always amazing, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable; it seems like everybody working here truly enjoys it. quite literally already have a reservation booked at valentine and will be coming back here beforehand. update: came back for more drinks (fernet & coke, spaghett western, negroni) and their lamb flauta. all AMAZING! and amazing order to whet the appetite before dinner at valentine.

Regardless, we gave it another shot and we were much happier the next go around. Record players in the corner and a fireplace on the opposite side of this dimly lit bar created a cozy vibe on a chilly Saturday night. We arrived right at opening and the bar filled up quickly but the volume still made it easy to have a conversation and still have an intimate night out. The drinks, this time, well balanced and delicious. My wife had the the Pantera Rosa and I had the Last Word. Both were delicious and not overly sweet. I love a good "Last Word" but the tea added a welcome and subtle layer. A nicely created cocktail without shaming the original. Servers were attentive, constantly filling up water, and making sure we were well taken care of. We will be back!

First, for a divey-style bar, the barkeep was really friendly. And they have good drinks. He made a stiff dirty martini, an espresso martini, and a few of their Mezcal-based "Smoke and Berries." Outside, we feasted on cheap eats from (I can't remember the name), but we ordered everything from tacos to nachos to fries and I think empanadas? Great music, great lighting, service, and drinks.

The seating's cozy enough to post up and talk but open enough to float around if you're trying to socialize. It had that lounge-meets-night-out energy.
