I happened to be searching nearby for Peruvian food and came across Bravazo. While i thought it was…read morea new spot, this pkace hs been opened for a while. We decided to order a 1/2 of rotisserie Peruvian chicken- chicken only ($10). Ceviche clasico ($20) and a side order of plantains ($6) and a bottle of my favorite Peruvian beer cusqueña ($6). We sat down about 6:30pm, the restaurant was relatively empty, seems like ther take out business was moving. We kept noticing people just coming from the outside to use the restroom. Food service was very quick, we noticed the rotisserie chicken breast was a bit dry, the leg and tight seem moist. The tostones were perfectly fried, the ceviches was fine nothing special. The typical green sauce was set in the table and it paired well with the chicken, tostones and ceviche. Overall the menu seems difficult to understand prices. Menu has family meals, and meals that are protein only such as the chicken i ordered. But in my opinion this is confusing, maybe family meals work when you have 4 or more people but for 2, its too much food. Psrking was difficult, when the bill came, the tip is automatically added onto the bill, while i dont have a problem tipping, they should tell you that from the beginning and not just add it to the bill automatically. When the server gave me the bill, they had also made a mistake to charge me for tap water. I went to the counter and i asked why there was a$2 charge for water and they told me it was a mistakebut neither the server or the person ringing the bill caught it, until i told them. I definitely had better Peruvian food but as a last minute decision we ate here because we were visiting my family nearby. I normally goto to Long Island, Ocenaside to eat at Ananau, now this joint the service, ambiance and the food is definitely 5 star. Bravazo did not feel like s restaurant ambiance, felt like a take spot. Dont get me wrong, the server was very nice but i wouldn't come back. While my wife was washing her hands in the restroom, some guy off the street who was not a customer came in loud, and started to bang on the door of the restroom. Nobody in management or even the servers said anything to him, weird situation and what was more disturbing was that he was hanging out at the pizza place next door. During our dinner, i notice people from the pizza place where coming in to use the restrooms in the restaurant.-totally weird.

I got the chicharrones with rice and beans and potato salad (comes with half an avocado). Every aspect of the meal was delicious. The pork was perfectly crispy, the rice was soft and delicious.

I saw a lot of New York breakfast friendly options on the menu for a very reasonable price. They take cash, credit card, and apple pay!

La Costa Verde in Perú is a fairly small stretch of coast in Lima, where green waters, strong…read morewinds, and intense natural beauty make for one of the nicest stretches of urban beachfront on Earth. It's a fairly lofty name for such a workaday Peruvian eatery, but the food flies high enough on its own. Before your meal, a nice salty tray of roasted hominy is brought out to tease your taste buds. During lunch, you will be joined by area locals who come in, order a lunch special, and quickly return to their jobs. The special ($7) comes with choice of entree and a nice cilantro soup. One interesting option is the chaufa, a dish so similar to Chinese takeout fried rice and found in chifas in Peru, but most of the others around you will be eating chicken. The restaurant does Peruvian specialties very well. That very rotisserie chicken is spot on, and the anticuchos ($7.25) are good substitutes when you are not in Lima, despite the unfortunate fact that they carry no picarones here. Walking down the street in any central coast city in Perú will present many hand-written menus with aji de gallina written at or near the top. The dish is a staple and an ultimate comfort food. It translates directly to chili chicken, but spices are mild in Peruvian cooking, the yellow aji covering thin chicken slices and potatoes. The dish served here ($9.25) is served with white rice and half a boiled egg. On a most recent visit, we decided to live on the edge and skip the normal ceviches for picante de mariscos ($14.50), a hot seafood dish that is medium spicy. The sauce is nice but it did not quite give us the same love as the delicious cold ceviche that can be eaten here. I do not remember eating a tamal ($5.50) while traveling in Perú, so I was interested to try one here, but unfortunately they are far less tasty than their Mexican rivals. Too much corn taste and too dry, but there is an olive inside. What I did have a lot of on that visit was chicha morada, a slightly sweet drink made of purple corn and very delicious, despite what my friends thought. At the very least, it is worth a taste for everyone. The service here at Costa Verde is very sweet, despite its functional nature. A couple scenes of the Andes Mountains decorate the interior, but not much more. I left with a feeling of wanting more immediately. It is impossible for one person or a small group to sample all the necessary items on the menu, so visit multiple times or bring a lot of friends.

Ask for a side of that green Aji sauce because that stuff literally tastes good with everything. My group also ordered a plate of loaded fries to share. The fries were glorious, it came loaded with hotdog pieces, drizzled in mayo, ketchup and cheese. Again, I preferred to dip my fries in the green Aji sauce. The fries were good for the first few bites, but then it got a little too overwhelming with all the sauces. I love this place and will definitely return.
