There is supposed to be a happy hour from 4-7, but we didn't get the discount on our drinks when the bill arrived. She definitely tried to upsell us on additonal items which i get, but this wasn't my first time here so we came with the intent of taking full advantage of the specials. Again though, the ceviches is the best in the entire area that I've had. The mixto in particular is my jam as it presents to limey and juicy and the chilled sweet potato is perfectly cooked. The corn snacks are delightfullly crunchy. The calamari frita side addition for $3 more is worth it to have something cooked to compliment the cold dish. My daughter also highly recommends the chicha morada. The cinnamon and other warm spices are in the background, but pleasantly supportive of the sweet purple corn and tangy lime juices. They both excellent outdoor seating options and very cleanly decorated interior dining options.

Here's the breakdown: * Pork bao ($3 Monday night special!) - fluffy little pillows of joy. * Pisco sours - dangerously easy to drink and delicious. * Mussels appetizer - flavorful and shareable. * Mains: the grilled octopus/shrimp with potatoes? Yes, please. The crispy duck? Not so crispy... and a little overcooked. Duck sadness. Luckily, dessert redeemed everything--the Lucuma ice cream was so good it deserves its own fan club. The vibe inside is gorgeous too--great decor makes you want to linger just a little longer. Final verdict: overall a 4.5, but let's be real, we're rounding up to 5 because anything less would feel stingy.

We both thought that the food here was awesome: but let's start at the very beginning!…read moreFirst we made a reservation for lunchtime, and a credit card was requested. This had us a bit nervous because we both live far away and the drive there- etc. but in the end we made it so all Good. There were open tables at lunch time, so I feel that asking for a cc was a bit extra, maybe an opportunity for improvement. Well we arrived and the place is located on a big plaza with sufficient parking on both sides, no problems there: right next to the Turnpike! Which made it great for a meet up for old friends who live in Jupiter and Broward: this worked. It is a large locale with tables both inside and a large outside terrace that was also Very welcoming. We chose the inside area. The decor is upscale and the noise level is low: great for all our conversations. There is background music so the lunch "scene" is very smooth and nicely suave. Our waiter was always attentive and handy and ready to take our order and suggest many of the dishes in the menu. They were so gracious they even sang happy birthday to me when they found out I was celebrating! Anyway we decided to share appetizer and entree - wanted to make it to the cake- so for starters we shared a "Conchitas à la Parmesana". (Coquille sort-of st jaques with a twist) (for the purist) as these had some bechamel sauce and some mozzarella in addition to the customary parmesan cheese. They were delicious! But not quite the "traditional" way we were expecting. Still: we licked our fingers and enjoyed For the main course we shared a "lomito saltado con tallarines en salsa huancaina". Let me say here that I had my doubts. Spaghetti in huancaina sauce? Who would have thought they would be so delicious! The sauce is a cheese mix with the yellow Peruvian aji- but it was not "hot", just flavorful and with a delicious aroma. The chunks of meat of the "lomito" we cooked to perfection, and the combination was just SO GOOD! Oh and the portion size was Abundant so we were glad we shared as we wanted to Make it to dessert So ... there is a dessert menu! So many choices... but I was determined and chose the chocolate cake. Peruvian chocolate cake is something else. I crave it. It has some dulce de leche in the middle and creamy hot fudge flowing from the top... yummmmm We were already full before the cake... but how could we not devour it! It was scrumptious! Anyway... it is already 6 pm, as I write this review- I am still full- and here I am wishing for more chocolate cake... or more of the spaghetti with the huancaina sauce... or both! We are definitely going back for more. Enjoy!

Example I ordered the New Sapporo kai Roll, it was supposed to have been topped with crabmeat, it was lightly dusted nor does it say it was spicy and it was spicy. The lomo roll was also a real disappointment. This is not a cheap restaurant so quality needs to be there. We got our food never saw the server again for another 35 minutes, looked as though there was one server with assistants that didn't speak or understand English that well. I will try one more time and update again.

We asked which ceviche is their best and she recommended the Ceviche Mixto. It was ready just a few minutes after and we walked over to the beach to enjoy it. She packaged it nicely to make sure nothing spilled. And the crunchy corn was packaged separately so it wouldn't get soggy. Thoughtful! It was super delicious! Nice mix of different fish, it was citrusy, oniony, crunchy from the corn. Everything I wanted in a ceviche. Definitely recommend!

Pukara is a family-owned Peruvian restaurant conveniently located within walking distance of the…read morebeach, with available parking. Our family tried a variety of dishes, starting with the Jalea, a fried seafood platter. While the portion was smaller than what you typically find at other Peruvian restaurants, the seafood was fresh. I just wish there had been more calamari, fish, shrimp, and fried yucca. We also ordered the Chicken (Pollo) Chaufa and the Seafood Chaufa. Both dishes came in small portions, and the seafood was only placed on top of the rice. Sadly, they lacked the distinctive Chaufa flavor and tasted a bit bland. The Lomo Saltado beef was tender but similarly lacked seasoning, and the Ají Amarillo was just okay. On a positive note, the service was excellent, and the ambiance felt warm and inviting. It seems the food might have been adjusted to cater to a more traditional or less adventurous palate. Peruvian cuisine is renowned for its rich flavors and Asian influences, and I believe it has the potential to be truly exceptional.

My friend had the Tallarines al Pesto, a pasta dish and another one of my favorites. I couldn't decide which I liked more! Portions were generous and we took home leftovers.

My boyfriend and I tried the ceviche called Cholo Power, the lomo saltado and the risotto huancaina lomo saltado. To start we had canchas which were nice and warm with a spicy but yummy sauce. The ceviche tasted fresh, the sauce was delicious to the last drop. The lomo saltado was juicy and tasty, the fries were crunchy and they served the rice on the side. My favorite was the risotto huancaina lomo saltado. I would say it's the best risotto I've ever had at a Peruvian restaurant. Our server Fabio was knowledgeable and kind. He made a great recommendation for our main course. Overall I recommend and will be coming back. Food was so good only got one photo. You'll just have to try it (:

This is a really tough review to write!…read more Not because I didn't enjoy the food, we did, but the service and the vibe outdid the food and I'm not sure which one to give the rating on... There is no real decor to comment on but the wood tables and comfy chairs with ever so slightly mismatched silverware gave the place a homey family feel. Super friendly staff plus their willingness to answer questions and help with special requests really solidified that charm and welcoming atmosphere. Unfortunately though, while the food and drinks were decent, I was constantly saying this is 'almost' really good. Chicharones were fatty and cooked perfectly but not seasoned, steak was flavorful and cooked nicely but not tender, the egg on top of the steak was overcooked so there was only one tiny spot of jammy yolky goodness, ceviche ingredients were tender and succulent but the sauce tasted like thousand island dressing, etc...

This restaurant has a great location pretty close to the beach, making it a perfect spot to grab dinner. It's half indoor half outdoor, so you can take your pick depending on the weather.

As I looked around, my mouth watered at all of the delicious dishes and drinks coming out of the kitchen. Even their smoothies look out of this world!!!!! I opted for the steak because I am a creature of habit, and I must say their was amazing. Juicy, tender cooked perfectly. Skirt steak is usually a hit or a miss, but I would say here it was a hit.

My family called the restaurant for a pick up and ordered several half chickens and one grilled pork with the friendly staff. Both entrees came with rice, black beans, sweet plantains and a soda for $14.00 - good deal I thought. Twenty minutes later, we drove to the restaurant to get my food and make payment. The floors were clean and the kitchen was spotless. We met with the friendly three counter employees and went over each item then paid. Everything was prepared well and in order. We loaded up on three different sauces and used the self serve soda machine. Im watching the rotisserie slow cook five chickens on a giant stainless steel skewer - drool was dripping down my mouth and couldnt wait to get home. So I get to my place and excitedly unwrap my food. The portions were large and they provide a substantial amount of rice and beans (unlike Pollo Tropical). Unfortunately, my kids grilled pork was tough but my 1/2 chicken was super plump and juicy. I mixed up the beans and rice and gently poured the green hot sauce onto the pile - omg it was so tasty. The plantains were sweet and tender - I devoured six. Very good customer service and the food was ready in a timely manner. Definately recommend this La Granja Boca Raton location.
