    The best peruvian food in the area! Good ceviche and tallarines verdes Nice and clean space

    Chicken, rice, salsas, yuca

    I rarely write reviews. But this place? This place deserves it. I've been to many, MANY similar restaurants, and I can wholeheartedly say this is the best one. 1) FOOD IS AMAZING! And there is a huge variety. There is not one thing we ordered that we didn't like. 2) The sauces for the chicken are absolutely amazing and yes that matters! 3) Staff is very friendly 4) Food gets to you fast! 5) Humongous portions. Even my 1 year old (who has tried many pupusas) proved that this place makes his favorite one yet! I highly recommend it. Eating leftovers as we speak

    Castilla Asada:Beef short rib with salad, beans, rice, cheese and roasted pepper.Amazing meal and even better price!Amazingness!

    Stood there for 16 minutes, staff walked by several times but never sat us. Avoid this mediocre hole in the wall.

    Their empanadas are amazing! Like a sweet beef stew with olives, egg, beef, peas, potatoes, and more! The sauce is so flavorful!

    Chicken has no flavor, many choices but they don't justify the poor taste of the food.

    Today, I felt like I traveled all the way to Peru! Pollos Inti's authentic Peruvian restaurant was…read morean exquisite experience- from the beautiful interior decor, which has been tastefully updated to include gorgeous chandeliers, high ceilings, and BEAUTIFUL wall decor; to the incredible service, and the authentic cuisine was "mmm, chef's kiss!" For a full experience, we sampled several dishes & our table became a Peruvian fiesta fit for Kings & Queens! We had: a delicious, sweet red wine; apps-Papa Relleña, Causa de Pollo, Anticucho, Leche de Tigre, entree- Lomo Saltado, dessert- Torta Manjar Blanco and coffee. Everything was sooo tasty and wow, the presentation of the food had me saying, "oooh" and "ahhh" every time the server brought something to the table. The Causo de Pollo was probably the most beautifully presented dish...for a moment, I thought someone mixed up our app order with dessert, but actually, no, apparently, their chef is an artist in that kitchen!! The Leche de Tigre was another eye-catching dish- huge serving and stacked up high on the platter & the ceviche was perfectly cooked, seasoned and crisp. Every dish and sauce was an experience all its own and so yummy. If someone had tried to tell me before today that I'd enjoy beef heart, I'd think they were nuts, but the Anticucho was so good!! I highly recommend making this your next stop for indulging your foodie palate with the tastiness of Peru right here at home. No jetlag or long lines with the TSA necessary!

    What I think to be quite authentic Peruvian food. Lots of seating and nice staff. The food is…read morepiping hot and fresh. The quarter chicken is a lot bigger than expected- and the yuca is fried perfectly with a golden crisp. Beef tongue was flavored well but understandably tough and the fried chicharron has a crispy outside but was expecting it to be crispy throughout. Overall great food and they give you the sauce bottles and the salsa verde is amazing

    Food and vibes are just magnificent. Hands down the best Peruvian restaurant in the DC area, by…read morefar. Honestly it doesn't matter what you get, everything is just so freaking succulent. The ceviche is really good, can never go wrong with ceviche, especially if you're going tapas style. The ají de gallina, lomo saltado and lamb are so freaking good, the meat is tender, the sauces are perfection, and when you mix the rice to with the sauce it's absolutely delicious. Heard about this place a while, finally tried it out a couple times now, already can't wait to go back!

    My first time trying Peruvian food. Apparently, it's heavily influenced by the Chinese immigrant…read morecommunity, so it's somewhat Chinese in a way. You can definitely taste some Cantonese influences. Corazón: Very unique. The beef heart was grilled very tender, and the spicy and tangy dipping sauce was refreshing. I've also never had such large kernels of sticky corn before. Lomo Saltado: Similar to Cantonese black pepper and beef cubes stir-fry, but noticeably coarser. The meat was a bit tough and dry, the sauce didn't coat it well, and it wasn't very flavorful. Chaufa Mixto: Chaufa = chaofan 炒飯 (fried rice in Chinese) A very straightforward transliteration. Similar to Chinese fried rice, it had plenty of wok hei 鑊氣 (wok aroma), which is rare in the US. The beef and chicken were quite tender; however, the shrimp wasn't fully cooked, and you could clearly taste the raw texture inside. Vegetales Salteados: Seasoned exactly like Lomo Saltados, it's even stranger to use it for stir-frying vegetables... It was entirely for the vegetables' benefit; otherwise, it was completely unnecessary. Suspiro: Dulce de leche custard, meringue, and passion fruit glaze, sprinkled with cinnamon powder--it was far too sweet.

I'm not even kidding, it was 40 people with no reservations prior, they showed up with a wedding cake too lol. The staff was running around like chickens with their head cut off. The wedding party kept bumping into our table and other patrons table, needless to say we were all super annoyed, . I mean I get restaurants need business but to take 40 people without reservations on whim like that was definitely bad judgment on management. We couldn't even hear ourselves talk, it got so loud. Would I come back , I honestly don't know, but I can say the food was good, especially the leche the tigre
