I live up the street from this restaurant. Whole time I been missing out on delicious, flavorful, and good quality food. Hefty portion, which arrived steaming hot. Ate everything of course. -1 just because they brought my bf's food way before I got mine. He sat there eating for about 10 mins before, so it made me even more hungry lol but overall nice lil Peruvian hole in the wall spot! You gotta try it! read more

Best Pollo we've had outside Peru. Authentic vibes with live Latina rock music. Nice market, sells Lucuma Ice Cream!

I did not know much about Peruvian food, other than it involves a tasty green sauce, so I visited this traditional and well reviewed restaurant that was kind of off the beaten path. I went with a Peruvian friend who was able to guide me on menu suggestions and it did not fail. Everything was fresh and delicious and I found the different flavor profile of the Peruvian food to be exciting for my mouth. Fairly simple restaurant with basic decor, but amazing food. They specialize in Peruvian rotisserie chicken, which I will probably try next time. The service was excellent and very helpful, I look forward to my next visit! read more

This place is pretty rad. Totally did not expect to see a stage inside when I picked up the food, especially with a live singer singing rock en español. It's a casual sit down restaurant with great food. We got the family meal and 3 generations of family members loved it. Beans are slightly different here and lovely since we eat so much rotisserie meals. Thanks yelpers for helping me find this place read more

Not the best Peruvian food in the area. We ordered three pasta dishes and two with carne asada and piece of chicken. The price for the pasta dishes was a little pricy. The chicken was dry and flavor was not good. The tables were a little two close to each other which makes it weird. The piece of carne was cook like it was boiled meat rather than seared. We also ordered fried seafood dish as well, upon asking what's taking so long, waiter said we never ordered it. SMH. We were the only table who also didn't get ask if we were doing ok and if we needed anything else. I wouldn't come back. read more

We come solely for the Ceviche Mixto and Lomo Saltado. Both are SO tasty and satisfying. The Ceviche is sooo acidic and addicting. The Lomo Saltado is a huge portion, good enough to share and the perfect amount of saltiness. A staple in our restaurant rotation. read more

Already looking forward to my next visit , the chicken was so flavorful and juicy it came with two sides and it was a big order. the lomo saltado the meat was so tender and had such great flavor, as great as the those dishes were, I have to say the ceviche was my favorite. Absolutely delicious just the right amount of spice and it was a very decent portion for the price. So glad we gave this place a chance, it's going to be a regular for me from now on. read more

The food taste great. But the seating is too crowded. Elbows width apart. It's uncomfortable. The music is really loud as well. Too loud for the small space. I would also like to add once you get your food that's it no refills and no one is checking if you need anything once you're served. The musician wants a tip and so do the waitresses when you leave. I won't be returning anymore. read more

Where do I start, I've only been here once and all I have to say is that I've been craving their food. From their chicken, to their rice and their green hot sauce was soooo tasty. I went on a nice day so I sat outside and I will say, I enjoyed it very much. Parking is a bit tight but the outside seating was cute. I can't speak about the inside since I ordered at their outdoor window. The lady that assisted me was also nice and informative on what I could order and what she recommended. I will certainly be coming back! read more

The chicken is delicious and the salad is fresh. I also love the dressing and the green salsa

Incredible quality of food, authentic peruvian cuisine, and a real chill enviorment with live music and bright decorations. All reasons to keep coming back if you love Peruvian food or are looking for something different to try while on a budget. read more

The Pollo a Brasa was 10/10 for me. I love they serve you a variety of Sauces. The service was fast and friendly. Definitely going back to try something else as everything look. I was there on Sunday and a guy was signing, great party an upbeat vibe. read more

Pollo A La Brasa is the best! I tried ceviche and it was a bit salty. The Arroz Chaufa was good. I have only ordered to go. Good service and great music! read more

Musica demasiado alta y las papas son de bolsa. Como peruanos tendrian que dar papas fritas naturales en el pollo a la brasa

We went there as a bday party with a lot of kids, the service was amazing and they have a live singer 80's -90's We enjoyed a lot food was so tasty!! I will back no questions ask Viva Peru food read more

They gave us 5 tiny nuggets for the chicken saltado meal that's worth $23. I had to re heat it bc it was soggy! We were looking forward to a great, hearty meal, but instead we were very disappointed. The lomo slatado looks like it needs to be re heated too, but the chaufo carne looks bomb....it saved our $75 meal! So sad that we spent so much for such a disappointing meal! read more

El lugar es pintoresco y limpio, déjame empezar con la comida, es realmente sabrosa, los camareros son tan atentos como pueden ser, pero su gerente, un tipo que ves dirigiendo un restaurante en la cocina de exhibición, está muy lejos de ser un servicio profesional, desconcertante, decepcionante y absolutamente tonto; Pedimos dos platos sencillos, pollo y chaufa (arroz frito). Fuimos claros y específicos con la camarera en que queríamos los pedidos juntos, ya que teníamos la intención de compartir dos platos. Ella pareció entender y tomó la orden. Pasados ​​unos minutos, el pollo salió bastante rápido y el camarero nos dijo que estaban trabajando en el arroz. Esperamos y esperamos un poco más. Incluso pregunté tres veces si vendría el segundo plato, pero no salió hasta unos veinte minutos después cuando apareció el chaufa. En ese momento casi habíamos perdido el apetito y pedí una caja para llevar y la cuenta. Le hice una señal al caballero que estaba a cargo del turno y gentilmente le sugerí que tal vez deberían traer los pedidos de los platos juntos. Su respuesta grosera fue defensiva y grosera, lo que implica que fue culpa nuestra por no recordarle a su personal que trajeran los dos pedidos juntos. Permítanme decir que este pequeño restaurante tiene el potencial de ser genial, pero no con la actual administración grosera y retrógrada. Alex Y read more

First time in this little traditional Peruvian spot. We ordered the causa de pollo, one saltado mixto and a ceviche mixto. Everything was delicious! It took me by surprise the quality of the food in a place that has no luxury but to eat homemade food...OMG!!! Friendly service. read more

The service is very friendly and the food is great as well, and the have live music too

Here's something you don't hear very often, "Hey, let's go to this great restaurant I found in Pacoima!" Well, now you've heard it, and it's true! I needed to find a place close to where my friend lived and El Pollo Peru had good Yelp reviews so off we went. It was really confusing at first because there's a place to order outside and eat in the courtyard, and there's another place on the other side of the building where you can sit down and eat, but it's not obvious what it is. I had to ask a couple of people before we found it. It was worth the hunt! First of all, it's a family run business and you totally get that feeling when you're there. All of them super nice, just like going to someone's house to eat with their family. They really are that nice. They have the food to back up the good Yelp reviews. I asked for a couple of their specialties and was more than happy with what they brought to the table. I had the half chicken with plantains for one dish. $12.99. They brought all sorts of dipping sauces to go with it. So good! The other dish we had was Lomo Saltado, a classic Peruvian dish. $12.99. It's a combination of steak, fries, rice, onions, etc. in a savory sauce. See the pic I've attached, it's as good as it looks! Check-in on Yelp and get a free can of soda! When it was time to pay I wanted to add a tip, but it was already processed, no place to add a tip. Our server said tips aren't necessary. What? really? I had some cash and left a well-deserved tip. Anyway, nobody goes to Pacoima for the food, but now you just might have a good reason to do so! read more

Live music, take-out windows, genuine staff who are happy to take requests and cook great food... I've only tried the pollo a la brasa and lomo saltado. The steak isn't chewy, which means they are using decent cuts of meat. All of the aji sauces are spicy with flavor. There are many offensive Peruvian imitations (the worst starts with a "C") in the valley. Trust the process, you will not be disappointed here. read more

Tasty Peruvian food. Yuca is crispy. Peruvian cuisine here has nice local flavor. Rooted in the indigenous traditions, Peruvian cuisine in this restaurant is good. read more
