    Ceviche
    Ashley C.

    Came here on a Thursday night. Greeted promptly and sat immediately. Plenty of options to choose from. I went with the ceviche and the lomo saltado, both of which were recommended by our server. Highly recommend getting the ceviche; very flavorful and fresh.

    Service is good but English is definitely a second language for the staff. The food was good but nothing exceptional. We had a Peruvian beef dis and fried chicken dish along with a tropical fruit ice cream . The fried chicken was a quarter of a small chicken . Crispy but not a lot of flavor . The beef dish was quasi Asian . It was ok but nothing I would come back for . The tropical ice cream was rich and tasted like butter pecan . A nice experience but nothing exciting. I wish the restaurant well but I have no reason to ever come back

    Plenty of dining room tables

    Ambiance was very chill and low key w some Latin American music playing on the tv. Food was delicious and tasty. My sever was very attentive and patient w me. It was my first time trying and I was happy to share my photos with my family and friends. I am happy we have a Peruvian spot in Vallejo and I can try something new! I will be back. Thank you & wish you guys the best of luck! They've been open for six months now.

    Tallarín saltado de carne

    A Taste of Peru That Feels Like Home From the very first bite, this restaurant transports you straight to the heart of Peru. The flavors are bold, authentic, and crafted with love by Peruvian hands that know how to honor tradition. Start with the ceviche, fresh, zesty, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat. Then the iconic lomo saltado, where juicy strips of beef are sautéed to perfection with onions, tomatoes, and that unmistakable touch of soy sauce and spices. The arroz chaufa is a savory fusion masterpiece, while the tallarines saltado brings a mouthwatering twist on stir-fry pasta that's packed with flavor. Don't miss the anticuchos, tender skewers of marinated beef heart that melt in your mouth, or the golden picarones, a sweet finish made with squash and sweet potato, drizzled in chancaca syrup. Pure Peruvian joy! To wash it all down, sip on a cold Inka Kola, a tangy glass of maracuyá (passion fruit) juice, or the deep, spiced flavors of chicha morada. Each drink is a memory, a story, a sip of home. And for a truly special treat, they're bringing out the Pachamanca (tres sabores) this Father's Day, a traditional Andean feast slow-cooked underground with marinated meats, herbs, and native potatoes. It's more than a meal, it's a celebration of culture, family, and roots. You will also appreciate the warm, attentive service from the owners and chefs. Whether you're Peruvian or just discovering its rich culinary heritage, this place will have you coming back for more. ¡Buen provecho!

    Pollada !
    Karla R.

    New place in town , very good flavor!! The chicken and the potatoes you don't need to add anything to it

    Great place, love the enviroment. The restaurant is owned and run by a sweet little family. Their hospitality is so warming. Peruvian cuisine at its finest! I will definitely come back with my friends for next time. They even have peruvian products for sale. Inka cola was definitely a must have for me!

    Tradicional Mostrito

    Hidden treasure for sure, great food with large portions that always leave with 2nds for later. The service is quick and inside is very peaceful, great for family dinning.

    Pollada.

    First time coming here, drove 45 minutes to try this place because of the reviews. Service was excellent, the place looks clean but the food wasn't that good. There are a lot better Peruvian restaurants around. I ordered Pollada, the chicken was tasty but it looked like my chicken was missing meat. I got the part with the "legs" supposed to be a quarter of the chicken and what I saw was more skin and bones not much meat on my chicken. I love the taste of the 3 pieces of potatoes that come with it. Maybe they removed some meat from the chicken to make other plates. My sister got Tallarín saltado, it was a good portion and all we can taste was the soy sauce. It was too much soy sauce that the plate looked more like soy sauce soup, we left the plate full and took it home because my sister didn't want to make the chef and waitress feel bad since they were very nice. I usually will say something but I was with my sister and didn't want to make her uncomfortable. Not coming here any more.

    Spicy Cherry shrimp (5 year olds favorite)
    Tina J.

    Another banger dinner! Cherry chicken and shrimp per the request of my 5 year old! Food is fresh and delish! Family ran restaurant serving good food and great Customer service! This small business is the best Chinese food in Vallejo!

    Pescado frito

    Good service. The dish they gave me was delicious. The fresh fish and the portion of yula with the sauce were very good.

I opted for the house fries over the salad because I love me some fries. It was very good, the calamari was tender and not greasy in the slightest. The fries were Kennebec potatoes that melted in your mouth - light, crispy and tasty. My friend got the mixed seafood ceviche ($19) which came with fish, one green lip mussel, scallops, shrimp, calamari, and clams. cancha corn, choclo corn (reminded me of fresh corn nuts LOL) slice of baked yam, and platano macho chip. I tried the fish portion as I hadn't experienced shellfish as ceviche before and was a bit wary, but my friend who loves Peruvian food said it was excellent. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices are a tad bit higher for credit card, like less than 1%. Will totally come back here just for the fries alone.

Being a pescatarian, I am sadly not able to eat at most soul food places unless they have seafood options, which many don't. Urban Fusions even has vegan collard greens on their menu! I was expecting the place to have the traditional greasy spoon diner feel that a lot of soul food places have. Instead this place had more of a artsy urban feel to it, which I loved. My son got the fried okra and the southern 3-way plate with the fried chicken, fish, jumbo shrimp and fries, with Mac n cheese for the side. He loved it and of course couldn't finish it all, so he saved it for later. His friend had the sticky ribs and fries, which he said were amazing. I ordered the fried basa with vegan collard greens and of course fried okra, which my son and I order any time we see it on a menu. The fish was PERFECTION. It was seasoned just right and fried to the point of being crunchy but not at all greasy. The okra was flavorful and not too salty the way it can be at some places. I tasted the mac and cheese and really liked that it was seasoned with a touch of garlic. Yum. Our server Lyla was sweet and attentive. Be sure to tip her well when you come to this place. None of us could finish all of our food and had to take the remainder to go. We all left feeling super full and happy. All three of us slept like logs. Urban Fusions is a must-return spot for sure!

For entrees, my fiancé and I shared the Pollo a la Brasa and got the whole chicken. Honestly with the side of fries and salad this meal is enough for 3 to 4 people, especially if you had starters / small plates first. All of it was delicious. We had leftovers for both of us, and it was more cost effective than ordering two separate entrees. Don't forget to use the side of sauce with the chicken! Reservations are easy to make, and parking usually isn't too difficult in the area. The only thing that keeps us from coming back more than a couple times a year is how pricey it is - we usually spend a minimum of $100 just on the subtotal for food before drinks, tax, and tip.

However, My friend said he thought Parada was better than Limon in Walnut Creek for Peruvian food. So I figured I'd give it a shot and try something new.

The food wasn't amazing but not really bad either. The empanadas were really good and the corn was good too. In my opinion it's not a good value for what you get here. It was pretty pricey but the portions were very small for $18 to $25 per item. In my opinion they should consider bigger portions to provide a better value for customers. Ultimately, I think it's definitely worth trying. I'm sure there are lots of people that would love this place. It just wasn't a great place for me.

The reviews are mostly five stars, but I suspect that's from people 1000% unfamiliar with what real Peruvian food tastes like. If you've had it done right, you'll notice immediately here. The one bright spot: service was genuinely excellent. The staff was warm, attentive, and made the experience pleasant. That's the only reason this didn't feel like a complete waste.
