    Dorna N.

    I hate leaving these kinds of reviews, because I'm big on supporting small businesses. However, this was one of the worst service experiences I've ever had at any restaurant, ever. I arrived at 7:40pm for a 7:30pm group dinner (for a birthday). Let's just say, my dinner came out at 9:53pm, over TWO HOURS after I arrived, and 53 minutes after the restaurant itself was officially closed! After all that waiting, food was also lackluster. The list of missteps was long, and I will be editing this review shortly with all that went wrong. For now, suffice it to say, from the experience of a patron, this visit was embarrassing.

    Amazing food. Amazing service. Truly authentic Peruvian food. I also enjoyed Pisco Sour

    Cheese cake Peruvian style

    Good food and service. All menu items we tried were excellent. We liked the food with particular Peruvian style taste and the variety presented

    Leche de Tigre
    Jackie S.

    My mom and I stopped by in for a lunch. We absolutely loved it. Definitely recommend. I went to Peru last summer and the Leche de Tigre tasted exactly like the ones I had during my time at the Mancora Beaches. The service was great everything tasted fresh and just made. For the Seco de Rez the meat was just falling off the bone. It was calm and quiet we went early Sunday afternoon.

    Beef that fell effortlessly off the bone. Mixed with the beans, YUM.

    As many times as I've been here I never thought to write a review. Well that changes today!…read more Decor Clean, dim, fairly small/intimate. It's not so small that you can't move around but during peak hours you may be shoulder to shoulder with another party. BUT if you get there at a decent time you should be good with space. Service Everyone is friendly, attentive, and very accommodating. No complaints here. Food No exaggeration, but I can't remember a time when I had a bad order or something that I wouldn't order again. Here are some of my favorite items: Chaufa - fried rice with your choice of protein. Anything from chicken, pork, fish, and steak. They have it all...and it's all good! Fish Chunks - lightly fried, crispy, seasoned perfectly! Lomos - if you're looking for a hearty meal that will either put you to bed (IMMEDIATELY!) or provide you with a leftover meal for the next day...this is it. I highly recommend upgrading to the Cadillac Lomo which uses filet cuts of steak *chefs kiss* Half or Whole Chicken - if you're looking for something simple. Perfectly seasoned, crispy where it needs to be, and not a dry piece to be found! I'll get that with a side of veggies (which are banging) and I'm straight. Pisco Sour - let me say that the sangrias are good but the Pisco Sour is my 100% go to. I can't even really describe it but trust me...it's good! That's all for my recommendations but honestly I don't think you can make a bad pick even if you don't choose something I detailed above. Also, if you decide to dine in they bring you the warm toasted bread with that Aji Sauce that might as well be liquid gold! Misc. Acuario is consistent with great service and an Aji sauce that will change your life. Until next time...

    "Some lunches surprise you. Others quietly raise your standards."…read more We came to Acuario for Restaurant Week, and it felt like one of those rare moments where value and quality meet without compromise. For starters, we had the tostones and the Papa Yuca appetizer. The tostones were crisp and golden with a soft center, paired with salsa criolla and garlic sauce that added brightness and depth. The Papa Yuca was comforting and rich, coated in a creamy sauce that felt balanced rather than heavy. Both dishes tasted intentional, not like scaled back lunch specials. They also brought complimentary bread with aji verde, and that sauce deserves its own recognition. Fresh, herb forward, and slightly spicy, it was incredibly addictive and elevated everything it touched. For the main, we ordered the lomo saltado, and it easily stood out. The beef was tender, the onions and tomatoes were sautéed just right, and the sauce carried bold flavor without overwhelming the plate. The fries held their texture under the sauce, and the rice brought everything together. It may honestly be the best lomo saltado in Stamford. Service was warm and attentive. Even during Restaurant Week, we never felt rushed. Staff checked in thoughtfully and kept the experience smooth from start to finish. The ambiance added to the experience. The space feels welcoming and lively without being chaotic. It has a comfortable neighborhood energy, the kind of place where you can enjoy a relaxed lunch but still feel like you are somewhere special. Acuario delivered on food, service, and atmosphere. Five stars without hesitation.

    I want to start with the fact that our food was delicious. We weren't planning on coming here…read moretonight, but walking by, someone sitting in the window had a huge plate of calamari that looked delicious, so we decided to go in, sit at the bar and get some calamari. We walked in and sat at the bar. Andres was very attentive and friendly. we ordered a Pisco Sour and pisco punch and calamari. All good. then my husband decided he wanted ceviche and I ordered chaufa de pollo, and then Tallarines Verdes(to bring home). Our drinks were very good. It took a long time for our food to come because our food was given to someone else. They were apologetic and said they'd give us some special drink pricing. But it was interesting to hear them tell the people next to us that they didn't have to pay for the food that they were accidentally given, even though they sat there and ate the entire thing, while we were the ones waiting and it wasn't even their food! The calamari(although MUCH smaller portion that what we saw at other tables and other people at the bar) and ceviche. the chaufa de pollo were very good. We ate. bit of all and took a lot home. Except my husband ate all of the ceviche... The owner came over and apologized about the wait/error. We got the bill, it was the wrong bill, I told him and he gave us the right one, but no discount or drink special on it... we paid and left. Again food was good, but service from the kitchen was spotty.

    We have been patrons of fiesta for a long time. We moved to NC ten years ago and had the pleasure…read moreof coming back to dine here this weekend. The food is just as good as we remember. The Chupe De Camerones is just so delicious. The half chicken was perfect and they make the best lomo saltado. Yellow sauce on everything. I will say our bread they brought out wasn't toasty like it used to be and the yellow sauce was very cold so bringing those closer to room temp would be ideal. Still five stars. Friendly wait staff!

    Great food, the lomo saltado is a little pricy but it's very good. Good portion sizes too…read more Quick service and friendly staff. It wasn't busy and this is a good sized restaurant with plenty of dine in and counter seating and very clean inside this location. They have been open for a month. Menu is very similar to other locations throughout CT. I definitely recommend stopping in to have a bite to eat lunch or dinner.

    Lives up to its name-- we ordered here for una fiesta and the food did not disappoint! Our…read morefavorites included the fresh ceviche (even for takeout!), and the tangy-and-mildly-spicy aji sauce, and the papas a la huancaína to round out the meal. Although the meat in the lomo saltado was a bit dry and it could have done without the soggy fries under the bed of rice, nothing that a little aji couldn't solve. Nonetheless, for takeout, it's hard to expect much better. We ordered four dishes for five people and the portions were more than enough; we couldn't finish everything! Just as with their food, the takeout service was superb. The restaurant worked with us to schedule an 11am pickup--right at opening time--so we could get the food in time for our event. Overall, we were impressed by the quality of the food, even as we played the role of food critics. Most notably, the authenticity and richness of the food struck us as a quality to remember. We (hopefully) will be back, maybe for next year's fiesta!
