Ceviche Mixto
Orsolya D.

Our culture is filled with countless examples of pick-and-chose, this or that competitions: dog versus cat people, chocolate versus vanilla, Coke versus Pepsi, Apple IPhone versus Samsung Galaxy, DC versus Marvel and the list goes on and on and ON. Another famous battle is that of Peruvian food in Hollywood... Mario's versus Inti versus Natalie. Most Angelinos have their strong opinions on which is better (although there is room for everyone!); and I am half way through my own conclusion having tried Mario's and now having finally tried Natalie. Natalie's is a Peruvian staple in Hollywood holding real estate in a small strip plaza on Hollywood Blvd near the Bronson intersection. Careful, and don't blink or you will miss this establishment. Am I exaggerating? No. Natalie Peruvian is small... like mini pony small. So small that you better hope there is an empty table or you are out of luck and will have to wait to dine. However, don't let this deter you or you will lose the opportunity to enjoy some tasty Peruvian cuisine. The menu at Natalie includes traditional Peruvian comfort food with a focus on seafood ingredients featuring ceviches, soups, carne and chicken dishes, fried rice and of course fish galore. Plus, dessert for your sweet tooth like flan, Peruvian ice cream and cookies. My boyfriend and I arrived to a full restaurant on a Sunday (although that isn't difficult due to the small square footage); but were able to snag the last available table. There is something very home-y and welcoming at Natalie which extends to the staff whom are kind, friendly and make you feel like family. Natalie offers tableside bread and whipped butter plus the special spicy green sauce while browsing the menu to wet your appetite. To kick off our dinner, my boyfriend and I started with the Ceviche Mixto (fish, shrimp, octopus, squid in lemon juice and spices - $19.99) to share. I have been craving Lomo Saltado for MONTHS so I already knew it would be my choice (beef strips sautéed with onions, tomatoes and French fries served with rice - $19.99) while my boyfriend chose the Arroz Chaufa de Mariscos (seafood fried rice w/scrambled eggs and green onions - $20.99) for our entrees. Natalie doesn't skimp on portions nor forgets to highlight plate presentation as the plate are large and filled with bright colors and fresh ingredients. The Ceviche Mixto came complete with yucca, Peruvian corn, and large shrimps & seafood that is bright and refreshing; and although I would have liked slightly more acidity - this is some great ceviche! My Lomo Saltado was DIVINE! The beef was tender and perfectly seasoned but not overpowering the sauce, fries or veggies. This dish is a heavenly orchestra! My boyfriend has never tried Lomo Saltado (what?!?!?!) - and he was in love. My boyfriend's Arroz Chaufa de Mariscos was some damn good seafood fried rice! Light and plump rice with perfectly cooked seafood; this dish is a warming blanket of food. I would have preferred more seasoning but I am a lover of heavy seasoning and spice. Basically, Natalie Peruvian serves excellent food at a bang for for your buck. Natalie may be at competition with Mario's and Initi (try them all for yourself to decide); but they are certainly a brilliant choice for affordable and delicious Peruvian fare in a family atmosphere. Even if you have to wait for a table - Natalie worth it!

The food is really good. Hot and fresh. The green sauce is okay. I'm not a fan. The bread is soft and fresh tasting! Definitely come here for fresh rice. Service was good and Ambiance is dark and relaxing.

Haven't been here in years. Used to live within walking distance, and was a favorite. Just had lomo saltado and plantains. BOMB Tried a jugo called Chicha Morado. AMAZING. Definitely would recommend!

Loma Saltado

A Peruvian gem tucked away in a strip mall absolutely delivers. Perfectly seasoned lomo saltado with tender beef, fries soaking up that savory sauce, and fluffy rice on the side. Bright, fresh ají verde that actually has depth, not just heat and would be good on just about anything. Finished it off with plantains and a creamy Peruvian dessert that hit exactly right. Delicious food. Bold flavors. Attentive and friendly staff. This is the kind of place you remember and come back to.

38. Lomo Saltado

The Lomo Saltado was full of flavor and served in a generous portion. The staff was friendly and extremely knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations. We also tried the costillas de puerco as an appetizer. Their green salsa was to die for, I wish I could've purchased a bottle! If you're in the area, be sure to stop by and enjoy a taste of Peruvian culture.

Food: tasty! Orders the cancha appetizer had to get another one cause it was so cool the chicharrón chicken too Service: suuuper personalized kind and so needed after a long day of work Ambiance: great music playing

First time here and very impressed by the service and quality of the food! Jesus is so friendly and attentive, and not a long wait for the food. The ceviche is so refreshing and flavorful. The Lomo Saltado is perfectly cooked, very tender. The appetizers are also very flavorful. Everything is perfect! Will return.

64. Mojarra Frita
Victor N.

We come from San Jose, and we were in the mood of some fresh fried fish; and we made the right choice. "Mojarra-Whole Fried Fish" was amazing, we also tried 7 marea soup - seafood , and a delicious ceviche. The service was so good, nice environment and music. I recommend it. Thank you.

Food was authentic and homey, full of flavor, fresh and tasty. Service was helpful and friendly. Ambiance was clean and homey. Menu has more items which I would come back to try more items on their menu.

Tried #s 55 and 75 for the first time today, absolutely loved it and the service was amazing as always

I've been coming to Natalie's for about 7 years and it never disappoints. Went adventurous and tried something new today and absolutely loved it and the service is amazing as always

Flan

It's my second time here and I constantly think about this ceviche mixto instead of getting my usual lomo saltado I decided to try the mojarra frito! And wow such a delicate flavor, it's a whole fried fish! This restaurant literally tastes like home made food with lotsa love. The service is 10/10 , and I would highly recommend. Yum

Heck Yes to discovering a great sushi spot in Hollywood! Why even consider SugarFish when this…read morerestaurant exists?!? Cozy exclusive seating, came around 5:30pm on a Thursday and was able to do walk-in seating. I had a white ale to pair with sushi and that was perfect for the lighter meal that sushi is. I did notice a good selection of Japanese Whisky and Sake, but I didn't want to be over tipsy. We got the four hand rolls and four nigiri set, and added on a couple items. Perfect amount to feel full and satiated and not grossly overfed Not only the quality and freshness of the fish was top notch but the presentation and service is stellar. Water and ginger got refilled as staff is perceptive to your needs. The fish for the handrolls were so finely minced that it almost seemed ground, made for delicate bites and soft mouth-feel. It's best if you don't use chopsticks and you your hands to eat it like a small taco. The best thing I ate that night was the wagyu uni handroll, tasted heavenly with the creamy richness as if little angels were massaging my tastebuds. The fattiness of the meat was dripping oil on my hand as I was trying to slowly savor each bite. Uni used was Santa Barbara uni, world renowned for the size and flavor... my favorite yes even more than baifun uni. The high stool seating was a little awkward though as the clearance for my thighs was not enough and my knees were banging into the marble counter a bit.

Excellent excellent excellent quality of this place. This is gonna be your no-frills sushi place…read more You order a piece at a time or a hand roll a time. Exquisite freshness, and the small bit of accoutrement they have is top quality Only a little star off because after $300 I was still hungry lol I guess that's mostly my fault and not anybody else's. Also, they predominantly serve Japanese alcohol so I wasn't able to drink. I completely see their viewpoint on that but that's what the missing star comes from. Purely going off flavors it would be a five.

Amazing gumbo I just had! All from a business running from a residential building…read more So I'm sure you're wondering if it's worth ordering from here and I'd say yes. Especially if you want great gumbo and cornbread. Things to know: First off, the food is delicious. Second off, this place has an A rating for food inspection. The place is a registered business (or else you couldn't list yourself on Google Maps) Besides... you live in LA and have survived danger dogs. That A rating should help you feel relieved, either way. If not, the smile you receive as you get the food hopefully will. You have to go up a few stairs on the left to get to the spot. Don't worry, there's signs that'll tell you where it is. Parking situation is a rough during rush hour but you should be able to squeeze in the street. You get some beads with your food, which is cute. Sounds like a fun thing to get if you ordered delivery while you're drinking at home (or work) with friends. So yeah, the food is great. It's super well made. The quality is what I was hoping for from a place that specialized in gumbo. Much like how I would expect the ramen to be good when they serve nothing but ramen. 100% recommend getting the cornbread with the gumbo, btw. I totally ate most of it while I was driving home so I'd say I recommend getting extra. (they're conveniently bite sized. I couldn't help. Lol)

Came for Valentine's Day and wasn't disappointed. I can see why they're on the Michelin guide…read more Pricy, but worth it. Felt like a curated experience, and loved that I got bar seating because you can see the check prepare your meal for you, and it's well worth the show. The location was a little bit hard to find, but ask around and they can show you where it is (in the Japanese Library). The food was very traditional and there were multiple dishes where the chef would bring out the ingredients in each dish and show you how the food came to the plate (so cool!) I would definitely recommend this spot for a romantic celebration, like for an anniversary or Valentine's Day or even date night! No misses and very intimate!

Definitely one of a kind experience…read more You can't even find the restaurant until you enter Japan House and the restaurant is in the back. We sat at the counter, and each dish felt like a work of art. I really enjoyed the appetizer plate, it was so interesting and although there was a lot going on, each item was delicious and painstakingly intricate. I LOVED their A5 steak, which I've had before, but I felt like this place was the best. (Can you have different grading within A5??). It was seriously eye popping delicious. We also did the sake pairing, and it was very informative and interactive. I felt like I learned so much about different sakes and how some sakes taste so much like wine. The venue has a gorgeous view of Hollywood if you sit at one of the tables, but I'm glad we sat at the counter. There wasn't much interaction with the chef, but I loved watching him in action. The evening was lovely and perfect for a special occasion. Mostly couple were dining the night we went. Service was immaculate.

She was very knowledgeable of the menu and very pleasant. She was very attentive and was tending to the tables AND the door. She definitely made our dining experience enjoyable. The ambiance was nice... low lighting and good music. The music was loud enough to enjoy and but low enough to hold conversations. It was set at the perfect volume. Amaya recommended some items in which we ordered the jerk wings, oxtail mac and cheese egg rolls, shrimp tacos, oxtail plate and jerk salmon plate. Everything was absolutely delicious with the oxtail plate and shrimp tacos being my favorite. All the dishes were filled with so much flavor. The jerk wings had a little kick to it but it was absolutely delicious! The portion size was good for the amount you spend. The only con would be no liquor! I don't think they have a liquor license. I definitely would have enjoyed a nice cocktail with this delicious meal. Status is located in Hollywood with plenty of other bars and businesses around. There's meter street parking and there is also a paid parking lot right around the corner. I will definitely dine here again.

I finally got the opportunity to try Status, and I have a few thoughts. To start, I wasn't able to…read moreeat in the restaurant, so this review won't speak to the service or ambiance. The chicken was typical jerk chicken--solid spice level, good moisture, and decent seasoning overall. My main issue was the skin, which was a bit soggy. It made me wonder if the jerk chicken was baked. For a $30 plate, I have certain expectations, one of them being that the skin has at least some crisp to it. As for the rice and peas, they lacked seasoning. I didn't taste any thyme, pimento, or scotch bonnet. You could taste the coconut milk, which was a positive, but overall it felt underseasoned. My biggest takeaway was the additional charge for oxtail gravy on the rice ($3.50), as well as an extra charge for oxtail gravy on the side. Typically, this isn't something most restaurants charge for. Overall, I'm giving Status 3 stars based on the price point versus the quality of the food. I'll definitely try them again and update my review.
