Added a gratuity for 3 people during an empty lunch visit and then added incorrect and misleading tip info at bottom of bill.
Sean K.

El Tayta disappoints - twice in one week!! First visit: $130 bill, very slow service, and our waiter vanished on a food delivery, left us unattended for 15 minutes. No one came to care for us and I had to flag someone down to order more drinks. Second visit: $90 bill, I asked our waiter if they really charged me for an ice tea refill and an aggressive owner comes to our table to argue with me. She made $3 on a $.05 refill and lost three good customers. BEWARE: Automatic gratuity, 3.5% card fee, and misleading and sneaky double-tip prompts at bottom of receipt to make some diners tip twice. Too many good Peruvian restaurants in the Hallandale Beach area to put up with okay food, horrible service, unscrupulous practices by an owner who takes out her personal problems on customers.

I will start out by saying the service was excellent and our server was very attentive. However, the food was mediocre and overpriced. The chicken was seasoned with unappealing flavors and the steak was stringy and drenched in some type of mysterious liquid. Overall, I do not recommend and giving 2 stars instead of 1 for the great service.

If you're looking for some really good Peruvian food I definitely recommend this location. They have a really good happy hour special with $3 draft beers that you can't beat. Their chicken is probably their best dish, definitely check this place out if you're looking to find some authentic Peruvian food. They offer outside seating on the stop is super nice, it's a great place for happy hour or to grab dinner with friends

Great Pisco

Amazing Peruvian food and drinks Great service! Good $$ Cozy and family oriented place Lomo saltado, ceviche, jalea And Pisco drinks were amazing We returned next day to get more lomo saltado

Came to this place as it is well located near Locatel in Hallandale beach. Wanted to try their Parijuela soup and actually it was quite good.... The seafood was generous and cooked "al dente" as it should be.... For me, needed more spices to give more flavor and maybe a little more consistency.... But not bad at all.... Also ordered a corvina ceviche that was also generous and quite tasty... maybe missing some spice to give it a better kick!! My partner had the roasted chicken that looked very good... They do have diet coke on a can which is much appreciated!!! The place is clean and service was quite good.... Will come back!!

Visited this restaurant for lunch, it's a hidden gem in Hallandale. Plenty of parking on the plaza where is located. I was greatly impressed by the food. The menu has a wide variety of Peruvian dishes. Seafood was really good. I tried the corvina dish with a salad and as a side order the ceviche. The food was very tasty and delicious. The ceviche had a lemon sauce and the veggies were soft, the fish tasted very fresh. My party and I also tried the "picarones", as dessert, they were very similar to donuts but sweeter and more crispier. Great prices for great quality dishes. We really Enjoyed all the food and trying the Peruvian cuisine.

Ceviche de Camarones - Shrimp Ceviche
Carmen S.

We were a group of 5. We ordered Shrimp Ceviche, Avocado Slices, Seafood Rice, Fried Whole Snapper, Fried Whole Snapper with Garlic Sauce and Fried Sweet Plantain. Food was good. Portions were standard. Fish was fried well but under seasoned. Garlic sauce was very tasty. Service was horrible. Server was great before food arrived. After we got our food, he was serving other tables and taking phone orders. We had to flag him down for EVERYTHING we needed. He apologizes but says he has too many tables. Um. Staffing is not my problem as a customer. This is not a big place. He certainly was going in and out to the other tables consistently. We get the check. Gratuity at 20% has already been added. We question the server. Gratuity is added automatically to groups of 4 or more. I have heard of this for groups of 5 or more. And I usually spy this within the fine print on the menu. We didn't bother to question further. We paid and we won't be back. I could stomach the automatic gratuity if we'd had good service. We did not. I had high hopes but......I don't recommend this spot.

The food is delicious service awesome I'm really happy to find this restaurant in my family trip

From the moment you walk inside to The Tayta PERUVIAN RESTAURANT you are greeted with a traditional warmed !Taken to our seats and offered water and a drinks menu. Then the food!!! Absolutely amazing. Evett was adorable full of personality plus. Her customer Service was impeccable and knowledgeable about the whole menu . She explained all the dishes to my friends because was the first time. I invited my friend front America Airlines Flight Attendant was the first time they test Peruvian food they was fascinating with the passion pisco sour # the ceviche#arroz con Mariscos trio was wowww! Super fresh and delicious. They can stop to compliment the food and the service. We love to travel different places and test different foods but this Restaurant El Tayta is absolutely delicious food. Definitely We coming back to this wonderful place. Great for group Michel Yehezkel

This place was really good, clean. If you want to eat something tasty you can try a "jalea" which is a mix of seafood: shrimp, fish and calamar We also love the "tostado". Service was very good. The personal explained everything. We will come back.

Horrible picarones. Dry and tasted like they made it out a box

First time eating seafood boil ever, it was a hit! The food was very fresh and delicious,…read moreespecially the sausage was very fresh! Everything tasted really good, EXTREMELY flavorful! The shrimps were still covered in their hard shells but after peeling them off, my outdoor cats enjoyed crunching on them. It comes with a mix of Pink sausage slices, mussels cooked in their shells, shrimp and small potatoes soaking in Red, delicious spicy garlic ...flavored liquid for dipping! Extra delicious! I only ate about a quarter of it and gave the rest of it to a friend because it was too much cholesterol for me lol! I've never eaten from here before and I definitely recommend it! The seafood boil from here is definitely very good!

Our family of eight visited this establishment recently while on vacation. As soon as we walked in,…read morewe saw a huge sign stating that, "20% Gratuity/service charge will be added to every check. Absolutely NO worries. We've been in the local area visiting for three days and that's the standard here. Absolutely ZERO worries. We were just hungry and ready to eat. We were greeted by a young Asian man who appeared to be the hostess. He reiterated the 20% charge as he escorted us to our seats. Again, we were not concerned. When we requested to keep our tables arranged in a specific way (apart) to accommodate an accessibility (ADA) requirement for two of our family members, the host/server became visibly annoyed and made a rude comment about us being "difficult." (Note: The tables were already apart and he was trying to push them together.) He walked off as if he was annoyed. He then brought over a manager who immediately accused us of having an issue with the 20% gratuity and questioned whether we could read the sign. We were completely baffled by this hostile and condescending reaction. Despite clarifying that the request was solely about physical accommodation and that we had no issue with the bill or tip, the staff, especially the manager, remained dismissive and disrespectful. Refusing to tolerate such humiliation, we walked out and dined at The Crab Boil instead, where the food and service were exceptional. We will not be returning to a business that treats paying customers with such prejudice and disrespect.

A Taste of Hallandale Beach Florida…read more My wife and I were visiting my brother in Hollywood, Florida, all the way from California. Since we had only a short time there, we wanted to experience as much of the local food culture as possible. As we met and talked with locals, one place kept coming up: Fresh and Wild. So, naturally, we had to check it out. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a gentleman who I believe was the owner. We then met the chef, a young woman who clearly knows her way around the kitchen, and her brother, who seemed to be the true "Jack of all trades," making sure everything was running smoothly. The chef took our order: Peruvian fish, black beans and rice, along with a sushi roll. And let me tell you... WOW! The food was sooooo good fresh, flavorful and absolutely delicious. My wife and I literally sat there shaking our heads in amazement at how good everything was. To the entire Fresh and Wild family, thank you for making two visitors from California feel right at home while serving up some incredible food. Your hospitality and the love you put into what you do definitely didn't go unnoticed. If you're in Hallandale Beach area do yourself a favor and check out Fresh and Wild. You won't be disappointed!

Old Lisbon in Aventura delivers an authentic Portuguese dining experience with excellent food,…read moreattentive service. While it is located in a shopping plaza, the restaurant's warm and inviting ambiance makes it easy to forget the surroundings and settle into a relaxed meal. Service was attentive throughout the evening, with staff providing helpful recommendations and ensuring a smooth dining experience. The wine list featuring a selection of Portuguese wines that pair beautifully with the menu. We started with the Bolinhos de Bacalhau and Polvo Grelhado, both excellent choices. The codfish cakes were crisp and flavorful, while the grilled octopus was tender and perfectly prepared. The fresh bread service was a welcome addition and a great way to begin the meal. For the main course, we enjoyed the Paelha Marinheira and the Parrilhada de Marisco. Both seafood dishes were outstanding, showcasing fresh ingredients and rich flavors. Dessert was equally enjoyable. The Pasteis de Nata offered the classic creamy custard and flaky pastry combination that Portugal is known for, while the Pêras ao Vinho do Porto provided a refined and delicious finish to the meal.

I had the seafood stew, which was hearty and full of mussels, fish, clams, white beans, and other seafood. Side rice was just ok. My mom enjoyed her salmon and vegetables, which included eggplant. For dessert, I had to get the famous dessert of Portugal, pastel de nata, which is a mini egg custard tart. It tasted wonderful, but was different from the traditional pastel de nata because it had cinnamon and powdered sugar on top, and personally I like the traditional plain version better. My port (sweet wine) was a delicious accompaniment. Service was very attentive. Interior is small and cozy. Plenty of parking.
