Peruvian Corner Hawaii - Aji de Gallina - Peruvian Near Me - Waialua, Hawaii

Hidden along the roundabout to Waialua is this gem of a Peruvian experience. We would not have noticed it had it not been for the neon sign, saying that it was open. Blink and it's easy to miss. While there may not be much of a parking lot, stopping at the Peruvian Corner is like hanging out at your aunty's house, spacious and cozy interior with a television, children's books, and, music to match the experience. So rare so go to a cultural restaurant that plays music to match the cuisine. Speaking of cuisine, SO 'ONO. The casava chips are a family favorite but to be honest we enjoyed everything we ordered. Will return if we're ever in the area. read more

AMAZING FOOD. AMAZING SERVICE. the food was great quality, and i felt nourished and beyond satisfied. Please give this place a try!! Kid friendly read more

what a fun find! do note that the address on their IG and yelp is wrong!!! they are behind smoking boar and coconut!!! i drove around the old sugar mill and couldn't find it but luckily someone else has posted they are at a different location now! There is not that many places that serve Peruvian food, especially with this extensive of a menu thats offered! I love that theres pictures on the truck, so it's easy to see what the food actually looks like and it is received exactly the same like the picture. They are truly a hidden gem as they are tucked in the back of a existing restaurant in their lawn area. upon entering a small pathway youll first come across some plants for sale ($5) which feeds the homeless! Pretty cool, but i also have a black thumb! There is a bunch of tables with umbrellas and when we went there was a singer! what a cool vibe they got going on here. best of all it is dog friendly! I got 3 items ( the scallops, steak/pasta, and empanada) and it came out to about $60 with tip. My friend got the ceviche with white fish which turned out to be Hamachi. It was also very yummy! Service was also super friendly and best part of all is that it's dog friendly! whoo hoo! read more

We stopped by for lunch after shopping at a local farmers market - it is a stationary food truck tucked in the back of a cafe in front with plenty of seating and daily live music. I'm so glad we came here! I've been to Peru and love the cuisine! I've tried many lomo saltado (soy sauce "shoyu"-marinated beef strips with tomatoes, cilantro over fries) in San Francisco, here and elsewhere. Peruvian Corner Hawaii serves such a tasty Lomo Saltado that I think it is one of the best I've had! The family that runs it is so hospitable and Aloha! Thank you so much! I would definitely stop by again! read more

Peruvian Corner Hawaii - BEST Lomo Saltado - Peruvian Near Me - Waialua, Hawaii

Absolutely incredible. We rolled up to this location right as the rain was dying down, there were puddles on the ground and a kid playing in the mud. It felt comfortable, everyone there seemed like friends and the neighboring restaurant welcomed everyone equally. I spoke a little Spanish with the woman behind the counter and I swear that must have unlocked the floodgates of familial care even further because our serving sizes were incredibly generous. Being able to eat outdoors or in only added to the home like ambiance and comfort. The octopus in the pulpo grill had zero flaws. Cooked to perfection with a lovely sauce, each bite perfectly measured with fat and flavor. Each bite of the ceviche returned energy to my soul and body, refreshing me to take on the rest of the day. So much citrus and spice, yet not an ounce of flavor lost in the mix. And of course yuca fries are amazing, if you've never had them you could do much worse than trying them here. read more

The food stand is located behind the building. They do have a restroom in the building that you can use. The food is very good and definitely made fresh. The wait isn't too bad and there is seating outside. I really liked the flavourful food and definitely would like to go back next time I am in the area. The service was good, but they did not mention that tip is included in the card transaction. That was slightly annoying. read more

When my husband asked me where to eat for my birthday, all I could think of was Peruvian Corner! This was our third time to visit, and we've always loved their food. We really love Peruvian food because it is unique and something you will not find so easily on the island. We had a plan for what to order, but when we arrived, we noticed they added new dishes to the menu, and everything looked so appetizing and delicious. We decided on the Peruvian Chicken, which I believe is called Aji de Gallina. It came with a light, creamy, and delicious yellow sauce. We also tried the calamari ceviche, which was fresh, lightly breaded, and ono! I couldn't resist trying a Peruvian empanada, so we got the Wagyu beef empanada. It's unlike any other empanada I've had (but in a good way). The pastry is light, flaky, and puff-like, slightly oily but delicious. Auntie Fanny also taught us how to eat it with ceviche sauce, yummy! And to finish, we had their tres leches cake, which was light and creamy. Something we really enjoyed! For drinks, we got the Inca Kola (like a light cream soda) and the Chicha Morada, a must-try Peruvian purple corn drink that Auntie Fanny makes from scratch. Beyond their amazing food, what keeps us coming back is their kindness, authenticity, and warm aloha spirit. Quick Tip: They're now open Tuesday through Sunday at 67-456 Goodale Ave, Waialua, HI 96791 (behind the Smoking Boar and Coconut). We can't wait to go back. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to try something unique and delicious! Mahalo nui loa Chef Miguel and Auntie Fanny! read more

An Explosion of Peruvian Flavor! This food truck is a gem! Tucked away in the north shore, this little corner of Peruvian gastronomy serves authentic and delicious dishes. Got the Lomo Saltado and it was absolutely spectacular. The meat was tender and juicy, perfectly sautéed with onion, tomato, and those irresistible fries; the sweet and sour sauce that coats it is perfection. Plus, the Yuca Frita was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the ideal accompaniment. To drink, the Chicha Morada is a refreshing drink with a unique spicy flavor that you can't miss. It's the perfect finishing touch to the meal! But what really makes this place shine are its owners Fanny & Miguel. They are the kindest and loveliest people. They make you feel like you're eating in their own home. They smile, chat, and clearly put their love into every dish. Thank you for such an amazing meal. read more

Come visit them! So delicious and such sweet people! After the Kona Low floods the road in front of their restaurant closed because that is where all of the debris was dumped before it could get cleared out.

We've been to Peruvian Corner several times now since November. At this point, Aunty Fanny and Uncle Miguel do not disappoint us when we come and with whatever they serve us. I don't know what I'm ordering and pretty much just pointing at the photos as I'm eating with my eyes first and it's just as advertised and delicious. All seafood is fresh and really good. The ceviche is a great appetizer. The menu has grown and makes us want to try it all! We ordered a chicken with rice in aji amarillo sauce almost looking like yellow curry but there's not even a hint of curry in it. Excellent new dish on the menu! Ask for more aji amarillo as it's a sweet but mildly spicy pepper sauce. The things I do know I ordered are tallarin saltado, chicha morada (a must buy drink) and inca cola. We always leave with a to go order because something about this food, their seasoning, and the smell of it makes us want it again. Also that chicha morada is too good to not stock up on. They are now regular at their Waialua location behind the Boar and the Coconut Tuesday to Sunday 10am to 730pm. All seating is outdoors. They will accept private parties as well. We will be back as they make us happy and our stomachs happy! read more

THE BEST FOOD ON THE ISLAND!!!! the sweetest family and the most amazing food!!! best place on earth read more

Best lomo saltado all their food is so so tasty! Used to buy their food at farmers markets but now they have a restaurant my fave

This place is the bomb. The vibe is very north shore, you eat outside beside a small veggie garden in the sun under umbrellas. The hospitality is 10/10 and the husband and wife that work here will treat you like family. THE FOOD is honestly made with an artists touch. Super flavorful and authentic Peruvian with awesome refreshing homemade drinks. The ingredients are fresh and everything is made from scratch. If you ask Fanny about the healthy aspects of what they serve she will explain that the salsa they make has medicinal properties and it tastes so dang good. I love to get the lomo soltado because it's a classic but I have never had anything I don't like here. Whether it's a super hot day and you want some super fresh ceviche or a hearty warm meal come and try this out 10/10! read more

Everything I've had here is so tasty! It's no surprise because Miguel was an executive chef in Argentina for 20 years! With Peruvian roots, a passion for good food, and years of striving for excellence, you must try their humble establishment on Oahu's countryside, Waialua. You'll enjoy anything you have here but today I encourage you to try their tasty health drink called chicha morada! It reminds us a lot of hibiscus but carries a mouthfeel all its own. Fanny makes it from scratch and it's very special. They make their sauces and desserts from scratch actually, so you've gotta lean into this fantasy made reality. Wild this place is empty. I mean they did just find this space to settle into after a couple years of finding their way. They would prop up tents, break them down, and do it again. And again. And again! Reminds me of what it takes to have a dream come true! One step at a time. I first met this family at a pop up event in Hale'iwa, then an event at a local elementary school and now at their very first establishment in Waialua. We used to have trouble tracking them down but now we know where the treasure gets to bubble and live! This family has only been here for two years but the aloha spirit is palpable! Let's continue to guide each other to this authentic Peruvian food made with aloha. I had trouble finding their hours so thought I'd share a few notes here. Open Monday - Friday 10:30am - 6pm Saturdays and Sundays, open from 3:30-7. Unless they're working an event! Check them out on instagram where they post where they will be if not in their said hours @peruviancornerhawaii read more

Hidden gem with refreshing and tasty food. I stumbled on this gem trying to eat at the restaurant in front of the Peruvian Corner but they were closed. Owners were very nice and friendly and helped me choose items off the menu. I had the ceviche and the noodles mixto. Flavors were great and I ate every bit of both. The owners even gave me and friend a free beverage. Great refreshing food far away from town. A good stop before or after going to kaena point or dillingham air field. read more

One of the best things we had on Oahu. We stopped next door to eat at Jenny's Shrimp and decided to get the Peruvian food when the woman working with her husband waved us over. I'm very glad we did. Turns out the lomo saltado was a perfect complement to Jenny's shrimp. For $20, it was a delicious departure from all the meals we'd been having all around the island. Service was friendly and quick. They don't accept credit cards, so I payed with venmo. read more

What a joy to find this little food truck behind another business on our way back from Kaena Point!!! Fanny the owner is very pleasant with a positive outlook. Her food was absolutely delicious. We had the Noodle & Steak which had great flavor and will order that again next time I am there. The empanadas were fantastic especially the wagyu and I asked for a spicey sauce to go on top of it. Also we completed our dinner with a Lilicoy Cheesecake! Yummy!! So creamy and delicious! I highly suggest you stop and enjoy this delightful tasty read more

Excellent food with welcoming friendly service! My partner and I were recommended to check this place out when we were on the North Shore one day and were very pleased. Everything looked so good we ordered 4 dishes. Although everything was great our favorite dish was the noodles and shrimp which has a somewhat milky-curry-ish taste to it with flavorful shrimp. The ambiance is very cute and quaint. A great little courtyard area to come after the beach. We'll for sure be back! read more

I love Peruvian food, but honestly, I wasn't going to eat here because I didn't think you'd get anything special like that here in Hawaii... however, it's one of my daughter's favorite cuisines, and being that she wasn't with me on this trip and I was missing her, I decided to get it while my husband opted for one of the shrimp food trucks. Plus the owner was super friendly and engaging when I walked by. Hands down, I have to say the flavor was amazing and is one of the best Peruvian places I've ever eaten at. Definitely the BEST food I had on the island so far. I'm bummed that they don't have a permanent location though. The owner said to follow them on instagram to message them about their location if we are looking for them. (@peruviancornerhawaii). Everything was clean including the eating space which had a roof - perfect because it started raining. I got the pasta with Lomo saltado (the yellow sauce one). I asked for spicy sauce which she gave to me on the side and it was perfect. My husband ate some of mine and immediately had food envy and ordered himself one to go for dinner. Nicest people that you'd want to see succeed. Fantastic food. Plus you get a little entertainment when you watch him cook your food (I posted video)! read more

This is the best Peruvian food in the island, prove me wrong! We had the lomo saltado, tiraditos, ceviche, chaufa (fried rice), chicha morada (sweet corn drink), salchipapa (sausage/french fried) for the kiddos and all were stellar. Service was great, which is spot on with what you would expect from a mom and pop operation. It's rustic, umbrella shaded and worth the drive to the north shore with three little ones. read more

I was quite disappointed with their food! If you are familiar with authentic Peruvian food from mainland then avoid this place! They used way too much vinegar & ginger in their food. Prices are crazy high and proportions are terrible. Avoid avoid avoid. read more

Food was pretty tasty and the service was nice. The owner was hospitable and friendly! The price was a little steep especially for the size of the empanadas. We got 3 empanadas, the steak plate, and a drink and it came to around $43 (before my tip). I shouldve asked for a receipt because no matter how much I totaled up my purchase (5.50x3 + 19+ the cost of the drink) I was having a hard time coming up with $43 but I guess if gratuity was added into the price like another user said it makes sense. I would def ask for a receipt! read more
