    El Mamut is amazing! I live an hour away from it unfortunately, but let me tell you it's well worth the hour drive! Literally every single item on the menu is delicious and homemade. The restaurant is also spotless and very clean. Service is very attentive and kind. Wish them nothing but the best.

    Pague por algo que no pedi.. nunca ofrecieron un cambio o solucion

    siempre vengo a comer a El mamut y lamentablemente hoy pido la porcion de chicharron solicitando panceta como siempre y me dieron costilla y huesos. Aclarondele panceta... un porcioan que es puro hueso y me dijeron que yo pedi mal.. en ves de dar una solucion y le aclare que siempre como aqui es por eso que vengo( sino hubiese solicitado eso entiendo o me hubieran dicho que no desde un principio) asi que igual pague y me lo lleve ya que no me senti comodo en la manera que me dijeron asi viene siempre.

    Visitando Nueva Jersey, mi tia recomendó este lugarcito. La principal razón que vinimos aquí los picarones!! En California no los venden, y sabían muy ricos!! Ordenamos papá rellena, salchipapa, cau cau un poco sorprendida que no lo sirven con arroz . Otra cosa que me gusto la variedad de salsas!! Muy buen lugar, buenos empleados! Buenísimo la comida. P.S El nombre del lugar no tiene sentido con el restaurante lol

    Pan con chicharrón y camote

    The tables are spaced out and they are following Covid protocols. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table, so we ordered as soon as we sat down and the food came out right away. Then pan con chicharrón was a bit greasy because the chicharrón had a lot of fat on it, but the sweet potato and onions on it tasted great. The tamal de pollo with onions was also very tasty and with hot sauce on top it was great. The hot emoliente was perfect for a nice winter day and the salchipapa was good, but the best was the leche asada. This is a baked milk pudding so it is a mixture of hard and soft as the top part is hard but once you eat it all it's amazing.

    Amazing shakes and breakfast sandwich options! I've been coming here for a while now and although it is a bit over priced it is well worth it. Typical Peruvian breakfast sandwiches like the chicharon & huevo con salchicha are the go to's. Also the lomo en jugo with bread on the side is just delicious. Pair any of these with a fresh juice and your set to start your day. The only down sides is that this location is small and normally packed so there is a wait and they aren't the best with a system of sitting people down. Also this is a pretty busy street so parking is the worst. If you come early and are prepared to wait you will enjoy your time here.

    What a delicious find! This Peruvian restaurant serves a variety of sandwiches and they are all delicious - from their jamón de país to their chicharrón and eggs- it's hard to pick one! If you want to make a quick stop and take a breakfast sandwich on, i recommend stopping here!

    Asado sándwich with lettuce, tomato and avocado

    Had I come only to eat an empanada they would've gotten 1 star. I was disappointed as it was dry inside. They seemed to have nuked it in the microwave really drying out the chicken inside. HOWEVER, I came for the sandwiches. I had the asado (steak style) sandwich. I asked them to add lettuce, tomato and avocados. It was very tasty and fresh. The sauce it's cooked in was good and the red onions they used gave it a nice flavor a semi-crunch that really made this a delicious sandwich. Even though I'll never eat an empanada from here again, I probably will return to try out a different sandwich.

    Taco de carne
    Brenda R.

    I had the beef (carne) Peruvian taco. Really tasty. Nice combination of meat, sweet potatoes, white beans (frijoles) in a tasty but not spicy sauce. They have a sauce list you can choose from. I asked the gentleman who took my order to give me a non spicy sauce. Whatever he put it in the taco was delicious. He made my taco the way he would eat it. They don't take credit card under $10 so I had to run out and get cash but it was so worth it. I will be back to try their chicharrón sandwich. That also looked delicious.
