So glad we found this place. Went there for the first time after tonight and will definitely be back. The food here is amazing. We loved everything we ordered. But the must have hands down is fried mixed seafood which included a generous portion of ginormous shrimp, calamari, clams and mussels in a light crispy batter. read more

Not authentic Peruvian food, food wasn't bad but definitely not cooked by a Peruvian chef. Place was extremely hot, AC wasn't on even though it was 100 degrees outside. Good luck my fellow Peruvian friends. read more

Never disappointed Great food Great service Usually crowed so go early Otherwise you have to wait. But it is worth the wait read more

The food is excellent and a great value for money. We love this restaurant and order for pick-up almost every week!

When I get a craving for some delicious Latino comfort food this is where I come! It's all love from the moment you walk in. The staff is extra special and attentive all the time! The owner is a delight she is always available and willing to share her delicious recipes:) Definitely come check it out and order the Carne Guisado or the chicken monfongo!!! My mouth is watering just thinking about it! read more

Came here for my husbands birthday since it landed midweek and we read all of the great reviews! Food was delicious! Service was fast! And you get SO much food for your money! We will definitely be back! read more

Food was great and plenty. Chances are, you wont be able to finish eating your plate because the portions are huge. Prices on the other hand are very competitive. I love the sauces, and chips that they give you once are seated. Great place, but a not too roomy. Food is fresh. read more

Good food, good service. Theyre better at seafood than the meats. Not a big fan of their steak. Although theyre a Peruvian restaurant by name, the menu suggests theyre more Colombian (more fried meat platters). Big pictures in menu so you know what youre ordering. A bit on the oilier side for me, maybe not for you. read more

Forget Westfield and Scotch Plains, this place is great! Went with a friend. We were both pleasantly surprised by the wonderful food and the great service! The green salsa with chips is fantastic, and the churrasca was super tasty! If I have one complaint, the portions were too large and I couldn't stop eating. You won't be disappointed. read more

I get this every time I come home to see my family! It's amazing I love the lomo saltado and the fish corvina! Not a big fan of the tortilla chips but everything else is a hit! read more

I am of Puerto Rican decent but my wife is Peruvian, we have been to numerous Peruvian places throughout central and northern NJ, and we are extremely pleased with the overall quality of the food and the cleanliness and decor definitely add to the experience. Definitely worth the money. read more

I've eaten here a couple of times, and every visit has been great. The staff are extremely polite. They make sure the food is to your liking and frequently check up on you. Food is also delicious my favorite is arroz chaufa the parihuela soup and bistec a la milaneza highly recommend this place to anyone who likes Peruvian food definitely the best Peruvian restaurant I've been to. read more

Love this place. The food is delicious and the service is good. I highly recommend Comida y servicio Excelente read more

Huge portions of good genuine peruvian food at very reasonable prices. The rice and seafood dish was amazing. The beef dish was a bit dry for my taste- it was so thin that well done was pretty much the only option. Service was a bit slow. read more

Delicious!! Food was amazing and the service even better. We had chaufa (sorry if misspelled) that was great, the calamari, the ceviche, and the Lomo Saltado. All amazing. My daughter broke a glass and spilled her soda embarrassing to say the least but they were so nice and came to clean up right away. You don't get service like that in most places. When we left there was a long wait because it is a small place but well worth it!! read more

Visiting from San Francisco with my wife's family and came here......AMAZING!!!....food is deliciously good. Will come back for sure.

My family and I have been ordering food from here for over a year. I recommended them to my friends as well. Their food is always great. Their soups are a good pick me up after a long day or not feeling well. read more

My first time to a Peruvian restaurant and i should say I'm overwhelmed with the tasty food that is served here. I and my friend ordered a steak and a shrimp fried rice and the taste was just mouth watering. How did i miss such a good restaurant all these days? Highly recommend this place and don't forget about this being a BYOB place. read more

Omg this place is amazing. I'm not from the area, but I was to early for a meeting and was starving, I search in yelp a place and this came up! The service is great! People very friendly. Loved that the offer you tea as an option for drink! The Food is indescriptible.. please if you are looking for a good Peruvian Place, this is it!!! read more

Their food is always delicious. We always order the seafood fried rice (chaufa de marisco), jalea (fried seafood, and their soups. Never a disappointment. I've been there to eat twice and their friendly and it's clean. Absolutely love their sauces also. Highly recommend read more

Had a great lunch here today. Agree the portions are really generous. I had the Churrasco and my husband who is dieting :-) had the tilapia with vegetables. Everything was fresh and delicious, the atmosphere was friendly, and the service was impeccable. I don't usually get seafood the first time I go to a restaurant but the paella looked delicious - will definitely be my next choice. Recommend as a nice walkable restaurant from Netherwood Heights. read more

Excellent food, nice presentation and food was very tasty. Try the seafood and lots and lots Great service read more

Punto Peruano - Peruvian Near Me - Plainfield, New Jersey

See all

Let's just say that they lost two customers. I've been here three times and with each experience it never got better. Expect to be waiting awkwardly in the front for a good 15-20 min if it's a busy day. In fact, I would HIGHLY recommend you to not go there on a busy day. Why? Customer service is going to lack. Orders will get mixed up and you will be waiting for another good 10-15 min for your food, and most likely for your check because this is exactly what happened to us. My boyfriend and I were excited to eat here because their food is good (not great because I've had better Peruvian food) and it was a BYOB place, so we brought two small wine bottles for us to drink along with our food. The place gets packed on busy nights and you're trying your best to not get in the way. While we were waiting, the waiter gave us the menu so that we could get our order ready, which helped because that way we could get our food faster. But did it really help? No. Once we were seated, the waiter asked us for our order and I noticed he didn't have a pad with him. I was skeptic that he would remember our order but when he repeated our order correctly, I was sort of relieved. Our drinks came by quick for sure but things began to go south as soon as we realized that the parties after us got their meals and we haven't received ours. Our waiter was nowhere to be seen and I asked another waiter to see where our food was because it's been 15-20 minutes and the other tables already got their food! Once the other waiter came by with our food, I realized that I didn't get the correct meal and our appetizer was supposed to be tostones, not maduros. (Eye roll and annoyed sigh). It took another good 10 min before I got my order right and voila, our original waiter came back apologizing for the mix up. As soon as he set the food down, I told him that I wanted two boxes and the check. His smile turned upside down and he began to look very nervous. Once he left, I prepared my things and told my boyfriend that we're going to eat this food at my house and enjoy our date night away from here. The waiter comes back and surprise surprise, with a free tiramisu dessert. He told us that we can't leave until we finish this dessert with a nervous laugh. Unfortunately, I'm lactose intolerant and I told him that and again, his smile faded. At this point, I'm so ticked. I told him to just get our boxes and that we want our check. Service magically came to us all of a sudden and another waiter came by to pick up our plates to put in the boxes and give us the check. I was fuming inside. Can you imagine the service for a big party of people? Oh man, I wouldn't recommend this place for sure. read more

We went there several times, love the food, however, they change the menu prices all the time, more than the menu and when we asked, they said oh new menu, new prices. They didn't tell you when you were ordering, that's a little sneaky. read more

I always get take outs from here or my husband will eat and order something to go. Today I came in and actually sat down with my husband any son. We ordered or drinks and food. We got our salad out and then the food I asked the young lady if she could get me an extra plate for me. Time passed I was half way done with my food I'm still waiting on my drink and plate. I had to grab the small plate under my husbands soup bowl to put my son some of my food. A couple walked in and ordered and got their drinks right away my husband had already finished and asked the lady for our drinks and she just looked at him and walked away. I finished my food still had time to whip the table down and take pictures of my son when finally they arrived with our drinks. My husband ordered jugo de mora and they gave him a shake. I will give it another try read more

Went here for the first time loved the food and the people they have this special every Friday for lunch which is so good for an unbeatable price of only 10$ highly recommend for anyone that loves Peruvian food !! read more

My husband and I have been looking for an authentic Peruvian restaurant for a long time. The space is pleasant, clean and charming. The staff are friendly and efficient. Menu had all the classic soups, dishes and drinks. The chips with all of the stuff are good and fun. Good prices. read more

I loved this place due to the portion sizes and delicious food. However do no treat the guests as stupid. Do not have a coupon if you have no intention of honoring it. And please make sure your staff knows how to process a coupon. I'm disappointed that instead of trying to remedy a situation that was the restaurants fault, the server couldn't care less. It's a shame. read more

Were should I start. Waitress didn't write down the orders (6 in total). Ask to have the eggs well done (that how I like them, specially if I am paying), they couldn't be more runny when served. One of the orders didn't come out, had to wait another 20 minutes for it, and share some of the food with the person that did get any so he wouldn't sit there watching everybody else eat. The fried pork was old, probably refried from the day before or earlier during the day or (hate to say) leftover from another order. Ask for a glass of plain water, waitress brought in a pitcher of water with pieces of lemons in it and when the bill came, they charged us $5.00 for it. We complained, they did not care. All we got was a "Now you know better the next time." They don't come back to the table to ask you if everything is ok. The food is ok at best, nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe that's why the orders are so big. read more
