This was a bit off the track on our way but had great reviews so went for it! Reviews said meals come with bread and aguadito! Count us in! The bread and aguadito are actually Yummy together, never thought to eat like this but it's so good. The soup is more watery than I make mine or have had but trust me, dip your bread in it! Game changer!!!! I love that they do this, makes them stand out and serving soup with each meal is why we chose it over all the other Peruvian restaurants on the way. The place was packed by the way. And we saw more ppl going in for the first time as well saying oh look, it's over here in the corner. I love more and more ppl are discovering how amazing Peruvian food is!!! For meals we got aji de gallina, my personal favorite and it did not disappoint. It had a very slight kick to it. Again trust me, I'm Kentucky born, I can't handle spicy lol. And this was perfect. Not spicy. Just a tiny kick. Try it. Enjoy it. Make sure you take a bite of rice with each bite of this dish. It's meant to eat together. Got papa rellena to share but we weren't fans so we just ate our other dish. But next day we ate it with our leftovers and we both enjoyed it much more. A must with the aji verde of course. And again, each bite must be paired with the salsa criollo that comes with it. Salsa criollo is the sliced red onions in the container with limon and cilantro, trust me, it's how it's meant to be eaten. Hubby got the arroz con mariscos. He enjoyed it. I am not a jaela fan, so I just don't care for these dishes. I'm a chaulfa fan! And they are not the same though they may look similar. So if you don't like this try chaulfa next time. But my husband prefers this dish to chaulfa, still he doeslikes both. We got chicha to drink. There's taste a hint different than other places. Not at all a bad thing. We loved it! Obviously house made! Some put a tad more pineapple and some a tad more cinnamon etc. So not all will taste the exact same. I highly recommend you try there's. Wish we'd gotten two each! Restaurant was clean and efficient and good seating options. Bathroom was clean and roomy. Staff was welcoming and nonstop working and willing to explain the dishes if you aren't familiar so ask if needed. Menu is thorough. It explains each dish well. My only complaint, it's far from Oceanside lol!!! LA has sooooooo many options, we need more in San Diego county. But if you are trying to decide since there's sooo many in the area, we recommend you try this place. Oh and my husband used the extra aji verde we had left over on our pasta, he loved it.

Service wasn't that bad, we didn't get water refilled but we also didn't look to find him. My creamy chicken was delicious but the steak was fatty. Venue is big and has a nice party area but it was really hot in there. As a hot blooded woman I was dying. I recommend taking a hand fan to cool off.

Been a customer for over 25 yrs. Gotta say the aji green salsa is still good. But not as good as it used to be. Same yummy rolls. Ordered my usual since we're only here a few times a year now. Back when I was working in Bellflower, I was here every Monday for lunch. Tried most things in the menu. Ordered: Ceviche mixto- tangy, not spicy unless you bite into the yellow habanero. Which was so large I thought it was a bell pepper! A mix of shrimp, scallop, squid, mussel & white fish. It's still a fav. Tallarin mariscos- pasta with mixed seafood in a soy sauce based sauce. Off menu and still very good. Lomo saltado- hubby ordered this. Said it was good as usual. Unsure about other comments regarding toughness of meats. Decor has changed a bit. Half wall divides length of restaurant. Possibly to create a sense of intimacy in this one large room. We will still come back. Not for nostalgia but because we still enjoy the food here. There's a possibility previous reviewers have a misconception about restaurant life. Not sure they've notice the price of groceries in general have increased. Most entrees $20 +. Similar to other restaurants. Gone are the days of $12-15 entrees. Realistically need to consider prices of gas too. Cuz foods arrive in trucks. Also finding and keeping good chefs/staff is hella difficult. Hopefully the owners can balance their skills amount three restaurants.

If Zero Stars Were an Option, I'd Choose It…read more Honestly, I have no idea how this place charges these prices for this kind of food and service. If I could give zero stars, I absolutely would. The server Adrian was rude and seemed completely clueless about the menu. I asked a simple question, and instead of answering, I just got stared at like I was bothering them. If you work at a restaurant, you should probably know the menu--or at least be willing to find out the answer. The food was even worse. The seafood was rubbery, overcooked, and definitely not worth the ridiculous price. I've had better seafood for a fraction of the cost. Overall, rude service, bad food, overpriced menu, and a complete waste of money. Save yourself the disappointment and go somewhere else. Definitely will not be coming back.

I've been here about four times now, and the chicken definitely has its moments where it's dry, but…read morewhen it's juicy and fresh, it might be the most delicious rotisserie you've had. When it's dry, the skin is like leather and the flavors are burnt and the chicken is flaky. But the two times I've had it where it was outstanding was enough to get me hooked. That marinade on the skin, once roasted, is a literal flavor bomb. Smoky, sweet, salty... I'm not sure how else to describe it. That soup is my favorite, bright, hot, comforting. But the fries are also awesome, crispy and seasoned really well. The cilantro sauce is the best I've had, so refreshing. The steamed veggies are clearly prepackaged and frozen, with that grocery store mix with baby carrots, pretty unseasoned, but healthy and hot nonetheless. Solid solid spot for some delicious chicken. Very minimal interior, giving a fast food spot from almost two decades ago now, but service is usually pretty nice and helpful.

Not very appetizing. Also I noticed some trash like straw paper under the table. There was no one there before me so they must not have swept before closing the night before. The tables were also sticky, and the overall interior was dated. No other customers came the whole time we were there during peak lunch time. My niece and I decided to share the Leche de Tigre ($21.99) and a Lomo Saltado ($19.99). The food came out in a decent amount of time. The leche de tigre was decent but the chips it came with were stale and insufficient in ratio of how much leche de tigre there was. The portion size was more than what we wanted to eat. The menu showed they used to have a smaller size and that would have been better for us. The lomo saltado is the most disappointing of all. This is typically a Peruvian restaurant main dish so I wanted my niece to try it, but this was such a bad first impression of Peruvian cuisine. The beef was tough and the flavor was forgettable. The fries were... edible. I didn't care for the rice. We barely touched it. We were so excited to come here and we left pretty disappointed with our appetites spoiled. Not recommended.

Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the experience. I ordered the Una Persona Parrilla, and the grill itself was cold. At that point, it might as well have been served on a regular plate because there was no point in the sizzling presentation. The meat was cold, stale, dry, and lacked flavor. The only reason I'm giving this place 3 stars is because I had such a great time with the atmosphere and the surrounding area. If I ever come back, it definitely won't be for the parrilla. I won't be ordering that dish again.

The menu had so many different options that I had a hard time deciding between the soups, traditional meat dishes, and pasta selections. I ended up ordering a pasta dish that surprisingly had an Asian-inspired flavor profile. It reminded me a bit of Kung Pao chicken with linguini, thanks to the red and green bell peppers, onions, and a nice kick of spice. It was delicious, especially with the house-made green salsa they served on the side. I also ordered a side of rice and beans, and although I passed on the plantains since I was dining solo, the server kindly brought me a sample, which was such a thoughtful touch. This is a cozy, mom-and-pop, hole-in-the-wall spot with a mix of two- and four-top tables. Parking was easy, and I found a space right in front. I stopped by just before closing, and there were still a few people enjoying dinner. Expect to spend around $30 per person. Overall, I enjoyed the food and friendly service, and I'd definitely come back if I'm in the area again.
