    The Lomo was tough
    MickeyBlue I.

    Decepcionados por la falta de sentido común en la distribución de las mesas Mi esposa y yo estábamos emocionados por probar este restaurante peruano antes de salir de Florida, especialmente después de leer las excelentes reseñas. Llegamos poco después de que abrieron y éramos los únicos clientes en el lugar. Elegimos una mesa tranquila en una esquina y realizamos nuestro pedido. Poco después, llegó un grupo de seis personas y, para nuestra sorpresa, la mesera los sentó justo frente a nosotros, ¡a pesar de que el restaurante estaba completamente vacío! ¿Por qué juntar a los clientes cuando hay tanto espacio disponible? No tuvo ningún sentido y pareció una decisión floja o descuidada. Para colmo, el grupo tenía una niña que estaba viendo videos a todo volumen en una tablet y no se quedaba sentada. Arruinó por completo la experiencia tranquila que buscábamos. Esto se pudo haber evitado con un poco de capacitación básica en atención al cliente. Por favor, enseñen a su personal a separar a los comensales, especialmente cuando el restaurante está vacío. Nadie quiere sentirse apretado en un lugar con tanto espacio libre.

    I truly believe that food is more enjoyable when it is vibrant and aesthetically pleasing. Everything I tried at Panka was made with love and delicious. I appreciated that the server was eager to help me choose and explain menu items I was unfamiliar with. I am excited that this place is close to me so I can try more of the menu. That pasta with the pesto sauce (Tallarin Verde) is pure comfort food!

    This place is a brand new Peruvian place in Ormond. I was a bit excited to see it. Something different and hopefully good. So we came in on a Thursday evening. It was quiet but that's expected for a new place. The menu is a bit large. Front and back, as you can see from the photo. My wife found the churasco streak. My daughter ordered the Lomo saltado. For the child, we got the chicken fingers. And for me, the chaufa de pollo. The rice was good and a huge serving. It was good. The chicken fingers were excellent. Crispy and nicely flavored. The Lomo was good. And the steak was also good. Just a little bit salty, but order it with less salt, and you'll be OK. Many plates come with an egg. We tried to substitute rice for French fries. They didn't understand but finally got what we were asking for. They mixed up the orders a little but fixed it right away. The service was good. The food was good. We had fun why we ate, and when we finished, we danced. That's right. Danced to the music with the little child. I am sure that this place will rock in a few weeks when the word gets out. This is a must try. I recommend it. We will be back real soon.

    Did our first takeout order here recently after having an amazing in-restaurant experience. Again, we got the Ceviche Tradicional with fish. Absolutely traveled well and they even separate the crunchy corn so it doesn't get soggy. We also tried something new for us: Lomo Saltado a lo Pobre. They also separated certain ingredients in this dish to ensure quality and it was great. We were so surprised at all the different flavors and how well they melted together and complemented each other. Papa a la Huancaina was also delicious on arrival. I had about a 20 minute drive and everything was still perfect by the time I arrived home. Worth every penny.

    Ceviche de pescado picante

    Okay first and foremost, I am from New Jersey where we have a "Little Lima" in Paterson. Whenever we leave the state we are always searching for quality Peruvian cuisine. We drive anywhere from 45 min to an hour and a half to get Peruvian food when we visit ormond beach every year. Normally we are missing the food back home. NOT THIS TIME!!!! The food here was EXCEPTIONALLY FANTASTIC!! We started off having the ahi de gallna! This normally is not my go to because it is too heavy, that is not the case here! The flavor was spot on and absolutely the best texture, the white rice was SPOT on to the way my mama Lucha would make hers! Stunning presentation! The second dish we had was the tradition ceviche pescado picante. The fish was PERFECT! Tender, tasty, and making us wanting to drink the juice at the bottom. Can I just say, THE BEST SWEET POTATO! I cannot wait to try the other options! After those two dishes we decided to order one more thing, the arroz chaufa de pollo. This is normally the primary indicator of a successful Peruvian restaurant. THIS WAS THE BEST I HAVR HAD! Must get! Everything was right! The wok flavor was there, rice was perfect, fresh and I particularly loved the ingredients. Chicken was tender and so so good. Next time I want to try beef! Overall I need to tell the staff they were fantastic. Friendly and helpful, attentive and knowledgeable! The service was on point. I highly encourage people local and afar to come here if you want to taste the BEST Peruvian food in Florida!!

    This place is a hidden gem. Very authentic food choices and the taste is amazing. All dishes come with huge portions and the staff is very helpful in making the right choice for your dish

    Delicious and beautiful presentation!

    Delicious experience at Panka Ceviche & Grill! Girls dinner out and we shared the Huancaina Yuca appetizer, Pollo Asado and Tacu Tacu W/Aji de Gallina. My first experience eating authentic Peruvian food and I will definitely be back! Excellent service and lovely, clean atmosphere. Give it a try!

    Finally got to check this place out and I wasn't disappointed. The food was excellent and there's so much selection the service. Was great she knew? Everything about the menu. I would definitely recommend this place. Peruvian food is hard to find good around this area.

    Ceviche (fish and shrimp)
    Robby B.

    I've always enjoyed Peruvian food. I used to go to a few Peruvian restaurants when I lived in south Florida. The ceviche and pisco sour I just had at Panka was better than any recollection from those other Peruvian restaurants. I really enjoyed it. I hope Ormond will come out and support this little gem.

    Pulpo a la parrillo (Grilled Octopus)
    Samantha H.

    So excited to find this treasure of a restaurant. Inside is a cute little restaurant with a small bar and plenty of seating for the size. The food was excellent. Service was also great. Severs were very knowledgeable and willing to explain anything. The food was fresh and made to order. We had the trilogy de ceviche seafood (with sea bass, calamari, shrimp and mussels ), pulpo a la parrilla (grilled octopus), and the tallarin verde (pesto pasta) with grilled chicken. The pesto sauce was so creamy and delicious. Just perfect. The chicken was juicy and cooked wonderfully. The octopus was so tender and flavorful and the potatoes and tomatoes paired with it were cooked perfect. All three of the ceviches had different sauces with shrimp, fish and calamari. All three were so yummy. Great flavors. Can't wait to go back again and try more dishes.

We started with the mixed ceviche, which was packed with fish, shrimp, and calamari. The mild version was perfect for us, bursting with fresh, zesty flavors. Another highlight was the Jalea fish plate, featuring perfectly fried fish and yuca. The light batter on the fish was incredibly tasty, especially when dipped in the ceviche lemon sauce--simply irresistible. For a special treat, ask for the llomo saltado from their secret menu. This dish, served with rice and French fries, was a standout. We did not have room to try anything else but their chicken looked delicious as well! Brazas has a festive and lively atmosphere with great music adding to the enjoyment of our meal. The place is spotless and well-maintained. Plus, Wendy, the owner, ensured that everything was perfect for us. Brazas is a local gem. Worthy of trying over and over! Make sure you are hungry!!! We will be back for more!

This was just meh. GOOD: Clean place with hearty portions of food. Food is made to order. BAD: Ran out of chicken by 2:30. So I ordered the chaufa with carne. Came out piping hot with high quality beef, but the rice was mushy with little flavor and nothing else in the rice but scrambled egg. . The aji ( green) sauce was just hot without noticeable clean acidic flavor. The hot sauce was hot but had a gritty texture. UGLY: Nothing ugly but nothing to come back for.

    Simply, Amazing!…read more Llama is among the best dining experiences I've ever had. I would give 6 stars if that were possible! The food was super tasty and beautifully presented. My ceviche Classico was fresh, fragrant, and delicious. Pro tip: get the hot peppers on the side. The service was great. Thanks, Alondra. The star of this evening was the immersive and authentic atmosphere. I felt like I could be hanging out at a cafe in Peru. I would not have been surprised to see a morochuco tie up his horse, and sidle in to enjoy some pisco and anticuchos at the bar!

The lady at the bar and two waiters could clearly see us through the windows, yet instead of opening four minutes early, they simply watched us stand there in the rain. When they finally opened, we walked into an empty restaurant. We were literally the first customers there and the place was completely empty. We asked to be seated and were told by the hostess that reservations only were accepted. We then asked if we could at least sit at the bar and eat there, but she said the bar was only for people waiting and no food would be served there. What makes this even more frustrating is that when you drive by, there is nothing indicating reservations are required. We discovered the restaurant while passing through the area and were excited to try it. The flavors may be unique, but the attitude felt unnecessarily pretentious for a restaurant that should make more of an effort to accommodate walk ins, especially when the dining room was empty.

There were only a few other parties seated, but it could've been the early afternoon hour we chose. Sitting outside would definitely be nice, but this was a day where Florida had yet to acknowledge that fall is here. Our waitress was attentive and kind, especially considering my two coworkers both had severe allergies. I ordered the fettuccine with the peruvian style huancaina sauce and chicken. Absolutely delicious! My coworkers had the lomo saltado and a ceviche bowl, both of which I'm told were delightful. Will definitely be back! Unfortunately, it may be priced out of my frequent favorites, but it would be a great special occasion location.
