I had never been here before, but I'm in the Boston and Providence area for work this week and met up with friends here tonight. One of my friends used to live in the area and said this place was good. All the food was very delicious. I had one of the steak dishes and for some reason it was a little bit spicy to me, but it was still very good, and it came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. One friend had the Lomo Saltado, which I tried and it was very good, and another had one of the other steak dishes, topped with a fried egg, and said it was great. He also can't have dairy and explained that to the waiter, who was very good at making sure nothing was cooked in butter for him. I wasn't going to get a drink, but my friends were drinking so I ended up getting the Pisco Sour, which was great. My friends said this restaurant used to be a lot smaller and then they expanded a few years ago, as well. I think there is street parking but I didn't want to have to find it, so I did valet - it's five dollars (plus tip) and they add it onto your bill. For some reason it ended up being $9.06 for our two cars, which I don't understand, but whatever lol. The only tiny nitpicky thing I have to say about this place is that the service was a bit slow. The waiter did check on us quite a bit, but the place was packed so I understand having slow service, it took a while to get our food. That being said everything was fantastic so I would definitely come back here when in the area. read more

Food: 6/10, service: 2/10, overall: 5/10 I'm in RI alone on this trip, and today being my last day in town, I decided to pop in for dinner over here. Got here right after 5pm, so luckily there was no wait, and as a party of 1, I got seated right away. And that's where things went downhill. My server, Joe I think his name was, he came by with the menu and took my order. But, that's all he did - he didn't bother telling me anything about any specials, or what the items contained besides what was written on the menu. Unfortunately, this was especially jarring, because the table behind me (which was seated after I was) had a different server, who actually told them the dinner specials and explained the food items to those diners for a good 10+ minutes, after asking them if they'd been here before and them telling him that it was their first time at Los Andes. And my experience? Completely the opposite, because not only was I not asked if I'd been to Los Andes before, but no mention was made of any daily specials or any other things besides asking me what I wanted. In fact, I wasn't even aware that there were any specials at all, until the server of the table behind me was explaining the specials to them! Now, I've been at lots of places for food, both upscale and otherwise, and mostly have had to go in alone during the course of my work trips, so I'm not a stranger to dining alone. But here, the way I was treated, as if being alone meant that I wouldn't order much food, and therefore needed to be hurried away ASAP, that didn't sit right with me. Now, to be objective in my review, the food is good. I tried the empanada which was average (the crust was dry but the filling was good), but the anticuchos appetizer was really phenomenal, and the salmon entree was good (could've been better in my opinion, but wasn't bad at all, and the salmon wasn't too dry, but the best part of the entree was the rice). And to end my meal (with lackluster service), I tried the flan, which unfortunately was equally lackluster. It wasn't too sweet, so that's good if you're not a fan of overly sweet desserts, but I didn't get the caramel taste beyond a very thin veneer on top, and the whipped cream on the side was a very disappointing accompaniment. Not only is that a shame, but it's also more a shame that the service, or lack thereof, lets this place down, especially if you're by yourself or have a smaller party. read more

A highly acclaimed Peruvian & Bolivian restaurant in Providence. Arriving at 5 PM, it was already nearly full, thankfully we had a reservation! Jalea: I don't usually like fried seafood, but this was really good! Besides the usual oysters, quahogs, shrimp, mussels, and squid, they also had South American specialties like paiche and pota. The batter was just the right consistency, not too thick, so it was crispy but not hard, and not too greasy, allowing you to taste the natural flavor of the seafood. The best dish was the fried shrimp; the thin, crispy shell concealed incredibly smooth and tender shrimp inside. The yucca fries were thickly cut, crispy on the outside and delicate on the inside, very satisfying. I recommend ordering an extra side of chili sauce; the waiter called it "extra spicy," but it's actually a salsa-like sweet and sour sauce--refreshing and mildly spicy, very refreshing. 903 Tasting: A platter of three signature dishes, perfect for first-timers. Ceviche Mixto had a milder sourness, making it easy to put in mouth, but it was a bit monotonous, and the scallops were a little mushy. Jaleita was basically a smaller version of Jalea. Arroz con Mariscos was similar to Spanish paella, but it was noticeably more tomato-based in sourness, with a hint of cheese. The rice wasn't too soggy either, making it the best of the three. Lomo Saltado: A classic Peruvian dish, and well-made. The beef is very flavorful, emphasizing the tomato's acidity rather than the soy sauce's saltiness, and the gamey taste was well removed. Although it was a bit overcooked , it was generally acceptable. By the way, their backyard was really beautiful! read more

Los Andes is absolutely delicious whenever you're in Rhode Island! I didn't realize at first that I had actually visited 4 years ago. I just remembered having amazing ceviche in RI back then, and randomly stumbling upon them again made me realize it was the same spot, and it's still just as delicious! Ceviche Mixto (5/5): Hands down one of the best ceviches I've ever had. Churrasco al Gaucho with Mashed Potatoes (4.5/5): Tender, delicious steak and great mashed potatoes all around. Andina Empanadas (4.25/5): Super meaty, perfectly puffy, and nicely crisp. There was a slight hint of sweetness I wasn't expecting, but I still really enjoyed them. Jalea (4/5): A generous portion of fried seafood. Good overall Classic Paella (4/5): Solid paella, though nothing super standout. Calamari (3.75/5): Good flavor, but the pieces were a little too small for my liking. read more

We visited for our anniversary, and even though we had made a reservation, there was still quite a wait. We had requested outdoor seating, but were instead led to an indoor table in a room that really didn't have much character, and wasn't what we were looking for on a special night. We asked to be moved outdoors, and after a little while a table became available. Outdoors was so much nicer than indoors and we really liked all of the plants and the live music as well. Our server was Joseph and he was really nice - he was probably the best part of our visit to Los Andes. I had heard such great things about this restaurant, but found most of the food to be pretty average compared to other Peruvian restaurants I've been to, and the prices were higher than they should have been. We ordered appetizers, drinks, entrees and a dessert, and all in all, I think Los Andes is overhyped. It was disappointing to have to wait for quite awhile past our reservation time, to not have our request for an outdoor table honored and then have to move, and the food and drinks were not as good as I would have expected them to be given Los Andes' reputation. Glad we went, but now I can cross it off of my list. read more

We were running late for dinner and they held our reservation for us which was much appreciated. We ordered the masaco from the appetizer special menu and that was the only thing we didn't care for. The pork belly was very dry, hard, and mostly unpleasant to eat. We split the bisteca lo pobre and it was very good. There's a $5 split plate fee and for that small amount, we got a full second portion of rice, fries, and an extra egg. Well worth it. We sat inside this time and it was fine, albeit a little loud. We would probably ask for outside next time if the weather was nice. The spiced chicha is easily my favorite drink on nearly any menu at a Peruvian restaurant I've been to. I will always go out of my way to get one when I visit Providence. read more

Looks like since 2020, they've built a beautiful atrium in the center of the restaurant. This visit we had a big family birthday dinner and we asked for a quiet space because we heard it can be loud. They were super accomodating and seated us in a very quiet back room. Server was great- we never felt forgotten. The cocktails were creative and delicious. We had a couple vegetarians with us and there were great options for them. We loved the empanadas, they are small. The salmon was cooked perfectly. The paella was a little disappointing in that there was no undercrust of rice. Tasted like a simpler dish of rice and seafood mixed in. Still- we had a great experience, parking was easy peasy and we love this place. read more

Los Andes Restaurant - A delicious plate! - Latin American Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

I think this is thee go to spot in Rhode Island for a meal hands down no questions asked. Peruvian fusion has something for everyone. From delicious steaks or fish dishes, to a wonderful assortment of cocktails and desserts. So many different areas in the restaurant so much to look and see, quite different than anything else I've been to and feels like you are plucked out of RI. I'd highly recommend this spot for any special occasion or even a date night. Staff are so friendly and kind, courteous. If you don't have left overs you must have quite the appetite. I usually go with the aeroporto dish which features, rice, chicken, streak, shrimp, pork belly, pasta peppers. It sounds crazy But it is SO GOOD. read more

I love Los Andes! A Providence classic, you can always count on a tasty, hearty meal. Huge portions fill your plate and you should always share, or plan to bring home atleast two extra meals. I have had less than optimal ceviche here.... The chicken and rice entrees cant go wrong..... Can be very packed so i would reccomend a reservation always, even on what you might expect to be a slow night. You can sit outside, inside, on a patio, near a fountain with fish in it, etc, so make sure you let the restaurant know in advance if you have a larger party or a special night and they will accommodate :) read more

I've visited Los Andes Restaurant several times, but it has been a few years since my last trip. I went this summer for dinner with a group of friends and it really was just as good as I remember! They've remodeled the interior since I had seen it last, and I really like the paradise-like vibe they portray. The open air environment was neat, but it was a little hot that night. They also had live music and entertainment, so that was enjoyable. My only complaint there is that it was very loud, difficult to hear conversations at the table. Our serve was super friendly, gave excellent details about each special and took his time with our table. Very personable. I ordered the Salmon Aymara and it was delicious! The salmon was cooked nicely and seasoned with some really tasty spices. Asparagus was the vegetable of the day, which is one of my favorites, and that paired with the chaufa rice and béarnaise sauce made for an amazing combination of flavors. Overall, I loved the dish and the atmosphere, and will definitely return! Hopefully sooner rather than later! read more

We had a wonderful experience at Los Andes! At first glance, the restaurant appears rather small from the outside, but has a massive covered patio and beautiful garden in the back, perfect for summer dining. They offer valet at a very reasonable $5 per car, added to your bill, which is worth it. They had live entertainment with dancers as well - there is no shortage of energy and entertainment. All of the staff are exceptionally warm and friendly, and service was excellent. I ordered a Peruvian pisco at the bar, which was lovely. Evey appetizer we ordered was exceptional, and their ceviche is a must-try. Two of us split the tomahawk special for our entree, delicious, and one of the best steaks (if not the best) in the city. For the large portions of food you receive, their prices are very reasonable. I look forward to going back! read more

Food here was great. Such a nice vibe with their outdoor patio - feels like you're in Peru. It can get warm in the hotter months so a tip is to go at night. They offer valet but if you find any there is street parking. Service was a little on the slow side but very polite and hospitable when we they came over. Flavor wise, the fish ceviche is a fave as well as the cocktails. I'd come back! read more

Such a fun restaurant. I've been there twice now and was impressed both times. The food is delicious, and the drinks are stand-out!

I have been wanting to try Los Andes and was thrilled to finally pay it a visit. We sat in the courtyard patio, which was absolutely lovely. The ambiance (and the service) is the star of the show at Los Andes. The relaxing South American music, the koi pond, the hum of happy diners all contributed to a lovely atmosphere. Our server was a true delight, very attentive, making great recommendations. We did not order desert but one of our party had a birthday and when we informed him we had no room for desert he brought out a plate with happy birthday drizzled in chocolate with a small mound of whipped cream and a strawberry. A very nice touch. I ordered a steak dish with the goal of getting as many South American flavors in my dish as possible- it came with a delightful cold salad, very good chimichurri, fried yuca, and a side of cheesy rice. The steak was cooked rare to my liking, which isn't always the case. It was a lot of food, beware. We started with some empanadas- which were also good, and this made it a Thanksgiving level feast. My party also enjoyed their dishes. Overall it was a lovely dinner! We look forward to returning. read more

Amazing! Came with reservations on a Saturday night and was very impressed. Huge restaurant with a ton of seating but service was consistent throughout the night. Food was delicious- went with the lomo saltado and the 903 tasting and everything was awesome. Lomo saltado- the tomatoes were my favorite part and delicious! 903 tasting was also really tasty.

A consistently great choice. Despite arriving late because of bridge accidents, we were served promptly and finished within 40 minutes in time to make a lecture. We enjoyed two drinks along with the Pollo Napolitano and Pollo Los Andes. The total bill, including tip, was $115. The food was excellent, reasonably priced, and the service was outstanding. Parking is very difficult, so using their valet service is highly recommended. read more

Do not judge this Providence gem by its street view, or you will be missing out on arguably the best restaurant in all of Rhode Island!! We have been loyal customers to Los Andes for years now, and they have remained at the top of our list for date nights and family celebrations. Los Andes is in a league of its own. You cannot go wrong with anything you get here - the food is consistent and perfect every single time (with some of the best steak we've ever had!). Some of our favorites dishes are their Churrasco Anticuchero, Salmon Aymara, Paella and Bisteca Andina. Their Andinian Mojito and Peruvian Pink Sangria are also a must. The portions are generous, so come hungry and ready to feast! The service from all of the staff is always incredible - everyone is always warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and attentive. This restaurant is always a hit anytime of the year, but especially in the warmer seasons when you can get outdoor seating. They have live music on the weekends. I definitely recommend a reservation for the weekends, otherwise you will be waiting for a table. The restaurant offers reliable valet parking in their lot. read more

The manager was out front running things and the food was straight up to die for I ate my pork shank for two meals and ate my wife's chicken and kielbasa too. Definitely we'll be going here again.

Whenever I am in Providence, I always try to make it to Los Andes if I can. The food here is amazing. This time around, we got jalea, paella, salena de pollo, lechon, salmon de chicharron, calamari, and mussels. Everything was great but my must haves are the mussels (comes cold), jalea, and saltena de pollo. It was all just so good. The service was amazing as well. Our waiter was polite, attentive, and provided great recs. We got seated in the middle area and it was so warm and even had warm lighting which helped with seeing the menu. Last time i came i saw in the inside which was dark but food was still good nonetheless. Can't wait to try new menu items. read more

We visited for the first time since the covid shutdown, and what a change! They have expanded significantly (even the entrance was new to me - though not to my friends. We were seated in a large indoor space with high ceilings (fabulous for noise control!), right next to the koi pond. Cocktails continue to be excellent, both the house offerings and more traditional drinks. The menu is large (though portions seemed a touch less generous than I remember. The food was fabulous, still. I had the stir fry with beef tips that our very friendly and attentive waitress said is a staff favorite. It was delicious, but I was sad that there were no leftovers for the next day's lunch. My husband loved his filet. It's rare for a very nice restaurant to be better than I remember, but Los Andes did it! Yum. read more

We arrived around 6pm without a reservation and only waited about 5 minutes before being seated, which was awesome. The restaurant is BIG and there's a lot of different smaller rooms that have different vibes. Very good food but it didn't at all feel cohesive. Maybe it was just what we ordered but I felt confused eating bread with olive oil and salsa, chicken salad as part of an appetizer, an empanada, and then steak. It was all individually delicious though! The drinks were also delicious! read more

Overrated and overpriced. Saltenas de pollo are big but it reminded me of a beef pot pie vs an empanada (not sure if this is the vibe it's supposed to hit on?). Platanos are good, can't mess those up but nothing special. Dine in comes with dinner rolls and olive oil which is plain and unseasoned.. nothing special and I believe they give 1pc per person. Boyfriend got the Steak plate w/potato salad and mashed... which he said mashed was plain and unseasoned...nothing special gravy or anything on it. Service was great tho and attentive. read more
