    Lomo
    Priyank R.

    Food was great. Got the lomo with chaufa and steamed veggies. Green sauce was amazing

    Breaded Chicken Breast-Half
    Nicole G.

    Dinner delivered arrived hot to the neighboring town. Dinner for 4 was 2 servings plus leftovers. The entree portions are large. A variety of sauces come with your order. The food is well seasoned. Grilled chicken was a tad bit dry but the sauce took care of that. Black beans no pork is hard to find in the area. The food is really good. I will order again.

    Beef Ribs-Half
    Tanzel S.

    I'm scanning door dash and boom PEPE'S pops up and boy did I have a treat! The portions were out of this world, the food was still hot and everything was so good. I got the Half order of Rotisserie Chicken and the Beef Rib plate. When I opened the lid I knew it was going to be good it looked beautiful. The chicken was so moist & juicy with a bunch of flavor. It literally fell off the bone the tenderness was out of this world. The Arroz Chaufa rice was the perfect side dish reminds you of an Asian fried rice but you get that Hispanic flair. The veggies were broccoli & carrots I love me some steamed veggies and I had no problem with them at all. The Beef Ribs had a nice grill taste and they were perfectly seasoned. They were firm but had great chew, a perfect cook in my book! I don't know what the green sauce they gave me was but man it was fire, it had a little bit of spice and a strong cilantro flavor. This is a hidden gem that's had to be found by everyone!

    Had the chicken and pork ribs bbq ... delicious! The ribs are amazing.. and the chicken was cooked perfectly and not dry.

    I'm not sure about the bad reviews here but this is by far the best Peruvian restaurant that I've ever been to. Their chicken and pork ribs combo is simply delicioso!!! I would travel from Clifton to West Orange just to get peruvian food here. Prices are reasonable and parking is never a problem. I never have to wait that long to get my orders whether I walk in or order though phone. I would definitely recomment this place.

    Good juicy & tender chicken, came upon this place while landscaping in the area and we got lunch! It was amazing! Chicken, Fries & Salad. Visited another time and got Chicken, Fries & Rice my favorite and super loved it!! Good spot to grab a bite and be on your way. I went again this past Saturday after returning from my bday getaway and after traveling all day, my spirit called out and said...YES GO THERE!! I obeyed!!! Really good food, you will not be disappointed!!!

    from left to right 16 ounces, 12 ounces, 6 ounces and don't know exactly how many ounces in the pepe's bottle but maybe 7 or 8

We ended up chatting away even after we dined. Staff was very polite reminding us they needed the spot and was also kind enough to give us a some time even before the reminder. Would definitely recommend this place!

I made a reservation and they've respected my request to be seated inside. The atmosphere inside is very vivid, like the name of the restaurant... it feels like you are in a party. My only wish is that they would play Peruvian music so the experience would be more immersive with the food. The menu is big and one of the things that I've liked was to see a lot of dishes that are not common in a Peruvian Restaurant outside Perú... like Aji de Gallina, Anticuchos and Picarones. Now the most important, the food... the quality was very good, since the plates arrived to our table, the smell and the presentation was a temptation to go all the way in. The ingredients used felt fresh and made to order. Every plate had its own characteristic and flavour... good size too. The "choco lucuma" cake for dessert was a great finish... moisty and the intensity of the chocolate and lucuma flavor to a good ratio. If you have the chance to try it... go for it, you'll not regret.

The menu is a fantastic blend of authentic Peruvian flavors with distinct Japanese and Chinese influences that make this cuisine so unique.

I had the Bistec a la Pobre ($22) -- a perfectly-marinated hanger steak served over generous portions of french fries, white rice topped with a freshly fried egg, and a side of grilled sweet plantains. YUM! The flavors were absolutely spot on. My dining companion loved her Pollo Saltado ($19) -- a generous portion of tender, boneless marinated chicken sauteed with onion, peppers, and tomato served over french fries with a side of white rice.

    We can't say enough good things about Pendragon's Smokehouse!…read more The jerk chicken (we tried the Hatchling for the kids and the Scorchling for the grownups) was bursting with bold, smoky flavor and just the right amount of heat. The ribs (Pen's House Ribs) were fall-off-the-bone tender with a flavor that hit all the sweet and savory notes.  The sauce is perfection, but they stand alone without it too!   The sides were just as impressive. The mac and cheese was rich and creamy with a panko crunch, the green beans were seasoned beautifully, and the rice and beans were full of flavor and cooked to perfection.  All of them complemented the chicken and ribs very nicely, and together with the BBQ it was the perfect amount of food for our family of 5 (though I could have eaten the chicken and ribs forever). And let's talk about the delivery, because that can make or break any meal, especially BBQ -- not only was it on time, but it was hand-delivered with care, arriving at the perfect temperature like it just came out of the kitchen. Every bite tasted fresh and made-to-order. You can taste the love and craft in every dish. Pendragon's Smokehouse is a must-try - absolutely soul-satisfying food -- and we can't wait to order again!
