We had originally…read moreplanned to dine in, but there was a very strong sewage/septic odor inside the restaurant that made us decide to order takeout instead. The employee who took our order was friendly and courteous, and the dining area, including the tables and floors, appeared clean. We did feel the prices were a bit on the expensive side. Unfortunately, we didn't care for the flavor of the Peruvian chicken fried rice, and overall the experience wasn't enough for us to return. We hope the odor issue is resolved, as it made a big first impression.

Both the server and the owner were really nice and professional. Got a few different dishes to try a little bit of everything. Tried the ceviche, it was excellent down to the details. Even tasted a hint of ginger in the juice it is served in. A tiny detail but it sets it a step above most other places who don't bother. Also had the Papa a la huancaina which was very good! Had a tamal as well which was exactly what it should be, if not a bit on the small side compared to other places. For the main course I had the steak with two sides and it was perfect. The steak was cooked perfectly and was tender as can be. It was cooked perfectly medium as requested. Got fried yucca and fried plantains for the sides, both were very good. There were many other sides that were available to suit your preferences. Anyone who is in the area needs to give this place a try. It may not be the food you are used to but it offers many really good flavors. Nothing is oddly spiced that would be an issue for super picky eaters. I highly recommend checking it out if you are from the area, gambling at the casino or just traveling through. You will absolutely not be disappointed.

For the food: The papa rellena appetizer was cold in the middle after we waited about 15 minutes for it. Seco dish was almost $30 and barely any meat on the bone. It was like 70% bone and 30% meat. The service: The service is also not the best. Not really a positive attitude, no urgency, didn't check in unless we called them over. And to top it all off, they charge a 20% tip and we were just a party of 3. So we got bad service, cold food, high price, and were then required to pay 30%, AND 3% surcharge for using a credit card. We won't be trying this place again unfortunately. I would recommend trying another Peruvian spot.

I have genuinely never had a better experience at any food establishment than I did at Rocoto. My husband and I ordered the chicken and beef empanadas to start and the smell of the crust alone was enough to brighten our day but the whole of it altogether was an ethereal experience. Perfect combination of a delicious crunchy, flaky crust with a beautiful combination of flavors waiting inside. We would have been delighted to leave it at the empenadas, that alone would have been enough for a 5 (10 if I could) star review but we also ordered the birria tacos and the beef bistec a lo pobre which easily brings us up to a 30 star review. The tacos has a perfect balance of Oaxaca cheese and tender meat with a beautiful flavor and plenty of onion and cilantro and the perfect dipping broth to kick the flavor to the best birria tacos I've ever had. And the bistec a lo pobre with a side of fried plantains? Quoted directly from my husband, "I've never seen you have a slow blink because you've like a food this much." The plantains had such a beautiful flavor (that's the 3rd and probably not the last use of the word beautiful I've used in this review), the meat in and of itself was perfectly cooked and beautifully (see?) flavorful. I could have eaten that all alone but a big bite with the egg, plantains, meat and rice (which again, somehow could have been a perfect meal all on it's own. I can't imagine how someone makes rice taste soooo good but they've done it) was almost an exact reenactment of the scene from Rattatouille when he eats that piece of cheese with a strawberry and the scene shows fireworks and swirls as he discovered a newfound love of the new flavor combo. It almost feels like I've never had food before today it's thay good. You will almost never catch me wanting dessert at a restaurant but after what had been the best eating experience we've ever had we decided we had to stay a little bit longer, have some delicious chocolate cake and fried ice cream while we waited for our to-go order of empanadas to take home to enjoy later. The server was a very attentive lovely young woman who we sent to send our compliments to the owner (something we've never done) who was so kind to come over and chat with us for a minute. The restaurant was very calm, quiet and clean which is very refreshing for two people who are very tired of glaringly loud restaurants. The only noise we could hear between the two of us was laughter, joy and excitement over how good this food was. If you know the Lord you'll feel how blessed this food is....we walked into this restaurant after a deep heartfelt conversation about the sad things in our lives, shedding tears right outside in the car. From the moment we stepped in all the way up to writing this review 2 hours later we've experienced a joy like no other meal has ever brought us before. We can not wait to go back and bring everyone we know with us for as long as they'll let us in the building. If you've been thinking about trying this place out I say RUN, GO NOW! You do not know what you're missing.

Was super excited to try Peruvian food for the first time. The server was super nice. It seems like…read morethe business--even though set up with tables-- is more catered towards takeout. Ordering: There is a Dr. Pepper drawing on the menu but when I asked for that specific drink, the server let me know they do not serve Dr. Pepper. We chose "1/2 a chicken" as our entree but we were told it's only served on Friday's and Saturday's--we went on a Wednesday. Nothing on the menu said anything regarding that. Was a bit disappointing to get told the two things I wanted from their own menu are not being served. Additionally, weirdly, we had to pay before we got our food right after we ordered so it was not the best when it comes to knowing what type of tip to leave. We ended up buying an extra drink after we ate to leave the waiter a tip. Food: We ended up getting Anticucho de Carne in place of the chicken they don't serve daily. We had Roasted Chicken Empanadas as well as Beef and Cheese, they were delicious--especially the roasted chicken one with peppers and onions. The beef and cheese filling was very mild tasting, most of the flavor came from the outer part. The Lomo saltado was very clean tasting and enjoyable. Lastly, we got fried ice cream with honey which was a 10/10! Ambience: The dining area was super clean. There was no music. The seats are pretty close to each other, initially we were the only ones there but about 5 more parties came in and it was pretty tight but not uncomfortable at all. You get to see the bustling around the kitchen and front serving area, however, there is a wall that semi-separates the sitting area from the pick up counter adjacent to the serving area so you get to skip out on the in and out.

The service was solid if not uninspired (they checked the boxes for the basics but nothing more). I was told it would take 10 minutes but it was more like 20-25. Next time I'll call ahead.
