    Fettuccini Verde with Shrimp
    Erin A.

    I had an amazing dinner here on a whim with friends are we were very happy with it! One of my friends is Peruvian so we've tried our share of Peruvian restaurants in Brooklyn and La Chacra is now one of my favorites. We ordered the ceviche and yucca fries to share. The ceviche was flavorful and the sweet potato puree was an unexpected but welcomed addition. The yucca fries were great with the aji verde. Though I didn't have any, my friends spoke well of the steak and the chicken. My entree was the Fettuccini Verde with shrimp instead of steak. The shrimp replacement was not on the menu but they were kind enough to do it for me! The service was wonderful and there was no wait (granted, it was later than the usual dinner time). I'll be back here for sure!

    Recommended by a cousin, and it was a nice choice. Came by for early dinner, and it was delicious. The place is small but nice, and everyone was very nice. Ps - get the blue sangria, delicious

    The portion they serve for the price is too small, it does not cover the plate. The salad was rotten and badly washed.

    The portion was way too small, it didn't fill the plate, and the salad was rotten. It looks like they don't wash the vegetables or even check them.

    We stopped by and had a delicious dinner today. I recommend making reservations ahead of time because the place is small. But the ambience is excellent: low lights, awesome music, wonderful service, and delicious food!

    I spent my anniversary dinner here and the food was absolutely delicious in flavor, the atmosphere is cozy and casual, and the service is outstanding. The sauces are so flavorful and every plate tastes so fresh! The bartender is making drinks from scratch, even the non-alcoholic juices were bursting in flavor and 100% made fresh!

    Calamari. Amassing taste, large portion.

    Coming from jersey ( where we have a lot of Peruvian cuisine) this is one of my favorites! I was very hesitant to try this place, finding an authentic peruvian restaurant in NY is not so easy. Will definitely try again! ( Note to self, it's a little pricey but worth the food! ) Chicken could have been a little better considering it's rotisserie chicken - seafood plate was AMAZING.

    I like this place enough to stretch to 3.5 stars. This is based solely on my delivery experience. I have tried them twice and both times the proteins were cooked well and still succulent. I have tried many a lomo saltado and sometimes the steak has been off which ultimately ruins the dish. The 1/2 chicken was also done well. I wish the skin was a bit crispier/seasoned, but it did travel some distance so condensation did it in. I tried to revive by broiling it, but it wasn't quite right. Green sauce that accompanied it was good too. Plantains were also cooked PERFECTLY!!! Like exactly the way I like it. Sometimes the bananas are not ripe enough and restaurants still fry them which is a recipe for disaster and sometimes they don't brown them enough, but I guess that is a preference thing. This was not the case with La Chacra. They were browned, sweet, tender, crisped and delicious. My one call out was on my first order the rice had a bit too much bite to it. I couldn't tell if it was undercooked or dried out from sitting out for too long, but I love rice so I can tell when it isn't quite right, which was unfortunate since it is such a big part of the dish. Red beans were okay. Nothing to right home and thankfully not too soupy. The lil side salad was also fresh, no browning on any of the vegetables which I appreciated because seriously that isn't appetizing as you eat with your eyes first before anything. They also offer my two fav latin deserts. Tres leche and flan. I have only tried the tres leche which is outsourced from another bakery I believe but I don't remember the name on the label. The tres leche is unfortunately a bit too soggy and the flan was also not very good and was too dense. Overall worth a try, but wouldn't go out of your way.

    Pescado a lo macho
    Derek P.

    Please visit this place. Having grown up in Miami, I've had my fair share of Peruvian food. I can pretty confidently say that this was one of the best pescado a lo macho's that I've ever had in my life. The fish and seafood were fresh and it was a very generous portion. The dish is not on the main menu, but it is a special that you can ask for and I highly recommend. We also ordered ceviche and a pisco sour, both of which were excellent. My partner got the lomo saltado which was great, but could have used a bit more sauce. The service was amazing and so was the atmosphere, and there was only one other party eating when we went on a Wednesday night. Highly recommend for great Peruvian food!

That set the tone of attentive service, which continued throughout an exceptional meal in Bath Beach. This area is busy, in a locals doing their thing kind of way. It's a real neighborhood, and La Chacra is a great reason to check it out. We initially had decided on ordering the Combo La Chacra, which consists of a whole rotisserie chicken, yellow rice with red beans, an avocado salad, an order of salchipapas, and an order of maduros. We added an extra half chicken, and thought "that's a wrap". However, there was an appetizer special of thinly sliced octopus prepared Peruvian style that needed to be ordered too. The service was excellent. Not overwhelming, but just right. Dishes were cleared, napkins replaced, straw wrappers taken away as soon as they hit the table. It's not something that I'm used to writing about, but needed to be said. And then, the food. It was outstanding. Compared to both the basic, and the high end Peruvian restaurants that I've been to throughout the city, La Chacra is far and away the best. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and felt intentional. Nothing was just thrown on a plate. As full as we were, and we were quite full, there was no way that we were leaving without trying something from the desert menu. Another wise choice, as both the flan and the tres leche cake were fantastic. To wrap this one up, this spot is a solid five stars. The prices are very reasonable and the food, service, and charming atmosphere will have us returning soon.

Although it's a South American food spot, with authentic Latin flavors, this joint is owned by a Korean family. They used to live in Peru, Argentina, and more counties in South America before moving to Brooklyn. All of their recipes show their unique family history in South America. From Argentinian styled empanadas to Peruvian styled rotisserie chicken... it's all done really well. So well that people are surprised every time they meet the owners! lol. This is a grab and go place and it gets busy! But there is a little bit of seating in the back if you need to sit and eat there. The staff work really hard to make sure everyone gets their order in a good time. And they are all so nice. I really love their rotisserie chicken and it's paired well with their fries, salad, and even rice. Their potato salad is simply seasoned but realllyyy good; truly nothing over the top with their seasoning for it but somehow it really hits the spot when you eat it with the chicken. I also tried the grilled lemon chicken with the lo mein and loved that too! I didn't finish it all in one sitting so I had that for lunch the next day. Haha. The fried shrimp was also very good. Loved dipping it as well as the chicken, into their house green sauce. The green sauce is crack!!!!! You must get lots of it. Highly recommend visiting this neighborhood staple soon or to order it delivered to your place. :)

We made a reservation for 6:15 pm to take advantage of their happy hour and when we arrived, there was only two other people at the bar. However, by around 7:30 pm the restaurant was pretty full so it may still be best to make a reservation. We opted to do their happy hour special, which is a ceviche + main for $50. They also have half off all bottles of wine during HH, and our waiter helped us select a nice bottle of white to pair with the food. For the ceviche we got the catch of the day and tuna. Between the two, I preferred the tuna although I will note the portions on both were pretty small. I'm assuming that the portion is the same as if you ordered it ala carte, but if I had paid the full price for it I would have been disappointed in the size. For mains, we got the chicken ala brasa and arroz con mariscos. Both of these were really solid-- cooked well, and the portion felt significant. Of the two, I think it really depends on what you're craving for which one I would recommend. The chicken was definitely more hefty/juicy but the arroz was very flavorful. We also opted to get a slice of the key lime pie for dessert, which was really good! The meringue was torched and it was very zesty and not too sweet. The servers were all really nice and they also do inkind, so combining that with HH can really get you a nice discount. I think without the HH pricing I would have thought the food was good, but more of a special occasion than a regular spot to visit. So do yourself a favor and come to try the HH menu.
