    Potato Huancaina
    Lauren W.

    This is a local and great spot for Peruvian food! It's one of my favorite spots to eat in general, as I'll occasionally crave their huancaina spaghetti with steak - it's so creamy and the steak is so tender. My absolute favorite! The portions on any dish are very large, sharing is highly recommended Inside is well kept, clean and also undergoes periodic renovations to remain updated. Service is always so attentive and the staff is very personable and friendly!

    This is a great spot for typical Peruvian food. Fresh ceviche and seafood. Authentic desserts prepared well. The service was attentive, prompt, friendly. It has a relaxed family ambience. No loud music or disturbing scenes.

    Name of the restaurant.

    Chicha Morada
    Stephanie B.

    Best peruvian food in Kendall. Iv been going here for years with family and the quality never changes. Every time I visit the food is phenomenal, even with take out! My go-to order is always the Tallarines Verde with Chicha morada. The service here is top notch, friendly and attentive staff. Restaurant is always clean and such a good vibe. Definitely recommend this spot.

    Mixed Ceviche

    Best Peruvian food in Miami. Amazing plates and portions, FAST service, and great environment. Always packed yet we never wait a long time. The entrees and ceviches are delicious. I go almost every weekend and they never disappoint!!

    Pescado in yellow sauce
    Joy B.

    Been passing by this resto, not busy in the outside, but when we get in it was packed! So for a first timer, if we see a place so busy it means the food is great. And sure it is...first the ceviche, fresh and they made it spicy as how we asked it. Pescado with yellow sauce is really delicious compared to other peruvian restaurants we've been to. The Jalen mixta is also good but not the greatest. I wanted it more crispy and more breading on the calamaris. Service is a little slow, but it's because the resto is super busy when we got in. I'm not taking away points for it. Overall experience, great food, good vibes.

    When you walk in a restaurant with a great name and all the tables are full of guest, you know the food is delicious. Place was packed! however that didn't matter because we ordered and our dinner was at the table in less than 10 minutes. Impressive. Plates are huge and delicious. Prices are excellent for the great food. Services is very good.

    Fish! Fish galore!!!
    Joe T.

    Great find in a place outside my normal travels! Six of us went and found a delightful experience! The fish dish that was shared between myself and an equally hungry neighbor was handily the best fried fish I've had in a long time! We both were fully satiated by our meals and our wives, who shared other dishes, were equally pleased! I feel compelled to return to further explore the delights offered here! Our server was more than up to the task of getting us what we wanted, even though it was a mixed Spanish English conversation! Overall, this was a more than adequate experience and I look forward to doing it again!

    Ceviche callao
    Connie G.

    Great food! Had the ceviche and it was as if I was in Callao . You won't regret your decision. Servers are nice friendly and welcoming.

    Picarones!!
    Gerry L.

    Was in the area and I have been dying for some home made Peruvian food and was recommended La Perla located in West Kendall. The menu here contains variety of different Peruvian cuisine and very extensive. After reviewing we picked the papa de La huancaina which consist of boiled potatoes topped with a creamy tasty cheese sauce. For the main entree we then ordered was the grilled seafood platter which included calamari, shrimp, fried fish and two large tentacles of octopus. The dish was full of flavor and the very fresh seafood it also came with baked potatoes. For dessert we had the picarones which are Peruvian donuts topped with a honey based syrup. It was one of the best picarones in town even the waiter said that they come from a secret family recipe. The exterior of the restaurant was homey and the waiter was a riot in a good way. Would definitely come back to La Perla for some good Peruvian food.

    Great food and service! Ceviche was full of flavor and the staff was friendly and efficientread more

    We are in Miami overnight and wanted to experience some local cuisine and expand our culinary…read morehorizons. After some research, we opted to try Ceviches by Divino. We really had never tried Ceviche before, but the online menu really looked spectacular. Our waitress was Angie, and she was fantastic. Such a great personality, and she went out of her way to explain all the details before we ordered. It's actually disappointing that we are just passing through and may never go back, because I would seriously like to try every last item. Rather than bore you with the list of everything we ordered, I'll share what we considered to be the best of the best. CALAMARI... we both love calamari, and we have eaten this dish at many different places. This was the best ever. Perfect. CEVICHE DE SALMON EN CANASTA DE TOSTON... seriously one of the most delicious things I have ever put in my mouth. While we did order both the ceviche camaron and the ceviche trio mixto, the hands-down winner, no questions asked, was the CEVICHE DIVINO. We finished with the TORTA DE CHOCOLATE and the smoothest, creamiest cup of coffee ever. My wife is a chocolate cake expert, and while I was finishing all the ceviche, she was having an out of body experience with the cake. I have to say that while we are borderline foodies and love cooking and eating, we probably are not the most adventurous. So glad today was different, and so thrilled with our decision to eat here. 10/10

    Was looking for a place to dine on our last day in Miami. Scary part was that I'm in Miami with my…read moreHusband and in-laws and they LOVE AND APPRECIATE FOOD. So the expectations were high. I rolled the dice and chose MAYU, a Peruvian restaurant located on the outskirts of Brickell. As soon as we walked into the restaurant the host was super welcoming. We got sat and immediately got greeted by our server ALEXANDER who happened to be a key element in our food experience. Many might overlook his presence as people are trying to look at the menu and figure out what they want to eat, but if you pay close attention the server, he will guide you to the best food experience you will ever encounter. Food we had in order: 1. Ceviche Classico 100/100 ( my husbands rating) 2. Ceviche del barrio 10/10 3. Acevichado roll 10/10 4. Hotate Parma without cream cheese 10/10 5. Pulpo anticuchero 10/10 (the octopus was so tender and delicious 6. Lomo saltado 10/10 ( amazing tender meat) must have !! Just as we were getting ready to leave we met Santiago, the manager and I asked him, "Why don't you have a Michelin star?!?!?" My mind was blown by how delicious and beautiful this food was. I wish them the best. This is truly a place to come and enjoy amazing Peruvian food. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. If you're a local here, DO NOT WALK PAST THIS ESTABLISHMENT. A special thanks to Alexander who made our experience amazing by explaining every dish and making us feel as if we were dining at his home. Would love a MAYU in LA.

    Stop by here the other night for dinner during a work trip. I was excited to try some Peruvian food…read moreand saw that Mayu was right across the street. I got the Pollo Saltado as it is my usual go to dish. The overall flavoring was decent, a little bit on the salty side. The chicken breast that came with it was a little dry and overcooked. Everything else was good with it, including the fries. Overall service was excellent. I sat at the bar, and the bartender was very attentive and conversational.
