    Sharks has been on my radar for quite a while and we finally made it here for dinner friends earlier this week. Being a Wednesday night, it was quiet when we arrived for our 6pm reservation, but I believe the large sized restaurant can get pretty full on weekends, especially when there is live music. The cocktail menu was full of old favorites and some Peruvian specialties, and I chose a Pisco Sour, which was perfect for a hot summer evening. For an appetizer, we shared a plate of fried fish and fried cassava. The fish was nicely breaded and the cassava were absolutely delicious. The dish came with two types of dipping sauces, which were flavorful and complemented the fish & cassava nicely. I ordered the Lomo Saltado entree, and not only was it delicious, it was beautifully displayed as well. The portion size was generous and I enjoyed my leftovers for lunch the next day, finding it even better than it was the night before because the sauce's flavors had permeated throughout the rice and fries. We were too full for dessert, but I would love to return to Sharks and will be sure to save room next time. As for the vibe of the restaurant, the dining room is large and attactgively decorated with dark wooden tables and chairs. One wall has a beautiful mural on it, and there is also a full bar. Sharks offers outdoor seating on a patio overlooking the Blackstone River, and if it had been a cooler night, we would have enjoyed dining al fresco. Service was prompt and our food was prepared in a timely fashion. We never felt rushed throughout our dinner, which was great since we hadn't seen our friends in quite awhile and we had a lot to catch up on. We really enjoyed visiting Sharks and would like to return again soon.

    We love coming to sharks! One of my Peruvian friends introduced me to this restaurant, and we have now been multiple times and it has been great each time! First of all, love that they have a parking lot, so it's easy to find parking. The restaurant itself is unassuming and quite large with a lot of seats, so you will always find a seat, no matter when. Food wise, I always love getting the trio of seafood, because it has everything that I would want and appetizers, such as ceviche, calamari, and paella. It's also a great deal. Otherwise, I know it's basic, but I love the lomo saltado. I feel like they do it really well here with a huge portion and an amazing balance of flavors, fries, rice, meat. We've also got the chaufa here before and have loved it as well, a great Peruvian-Chinese combination. Drinks, wise, we love getting their pisco sours. They are occasionally on the heavier pour side (which we love), but always delicious. Also love that they have mocktails available as well. Overall, love this restaurant, will definitely be coming back!

    Seafood rice and mussels

    Great food choices of Peruvian style. If you like seafood this is the place to visit. A variety of meat dishes to choose from also. I am a seafood guy that's why I am a frequent customer ! Check out my pics.

    Large portions mediocre food Ambiance on the deck overlooking the Blackstone River very nice. Service was poor we had to wait over an hour for main course to arrive. Appetizers were not good, the fried squid was too heavily breaded and too chewy, overcooked. The mussels on half shell were too full of chopped onions and tomatoes and the taste of mussels was lost. Main course was very very large, my friend had fried chicken with an almond sauce and mixed vegetables and fruit. Sauce was good chicken was very tough. I had a Chicken Chaufer, which is Fried Rice with grilled chicken. The rice was good but the chicken was too over grilled and tough. We ate no dessert. Price was reasonable

    Happy summer seafood
    Gail A.

    The view of the river on a summer night is delightful. Fresh seafood with the sound of the falls in the background. The staff is so pleasant and attentive.

    05-26-24 We made a reservation for 7:30pm. While enjoying our drinks and patiently waiting for our food, still no food when 9:10pm came around. Because we came to celebrate our son's graduation, we made the best of our experience. The wait was definitely too long. As for the food, no doubt it was delicious! Ordered: 5/5 -5 Bistec a lo Pobre $120 -Trio Marino $32 -Salmon $26 -Arroz con Mariscos $23 -Camarones Fritos $15 -Yucas Fritas $6 Drinks: -4 Cristal $18 -4 Cusquena $20 -Margarita De Maracuya $16 -Chicano Shark $14 -2 Pisco Sour de la Casa $24 Service: We liked our pleasant server, Alejandro. First round of drinks, we ordered 7 but he brought over 8. Before leaving our table, he said the extra one was on the house. I appreciate the generous gesture. The down side, he didn't remove the extra Pisco Sour de La Casa ($12) that we did not order. The bill showed a charge for 2. What?! We enjoyed the food and made our experience positive even though the wait was much too long

    These appetizers were amazing

    Causa Rellena de Pollo
    Vijay S.

    I'm glad we checked out this spot in Central Falls. It's located right next to the Blackstone River. There's plenty of seating inside, and it is excellent for families and kids. Everything was clean. We came here for lunch on a weekend. We got the causa relleno de pollo, bistec a lo pobre, pechuga al grill, and the ceviche mixto. Everything was really good, and the portion sizes were quite significant. The potatoes in the chicken causa were seasoned well and it was quite filling. The grilled chicken and the steak were cooked well, and tasted delicious. I also got a side of yucca fries that went well with the green sauce they gave initially. I got the gin fizz cocktail, which was pretty good. The service was excellent. Overall, it was a bit expensive but it was a very good experience.

    Chicharron de Calmar (Calamari with spicy banana peppers)
    Francheska D.

    My family came to Shark's for my mom's birthday dinner. We started with the calamari and fried shrimp as appetizers. I really loved the calamari with the spicy banana peppers - lightly battered, right amount of seasoning. I felt like it could have had a dipping sauce but it wasn't necessary. We all ordered a variety of mains but I couldn't even get pictures how quickly everyone gobbled up their food! My mom really enjoyed the Filete de Pescaso Frito - the fish was HUGE and fresh. She liked the tangy onion salad. My youngest sister ordered off the kids menu - she really liked the Salchipapas - fries chopped hot dogs with fries. She noticed some of the hotdogs were cut into cute octopus shapes. I don't recall the name of my other sister's dish but it was fried fish chunks with yuca fries and she ordered a side of sweet plantain. I ordered the lomo saltado - I received a HUGE portion and I loved the stir fried flavors. When the food came out, my aunt immediately started asking for to go plates - we knew we wouldn't finish it all. We deeply appreciated all the space inside the well- lit restaurant and the huge parking lot. We had one little hiccup when we were there - my food came out about 10-15 min later than the rest of my family's. When the waiter realized his mistake, he comped us some delicious drinks - wine and a Pina Colada. I didn't love the music playlist - it seemed random - not modern, not Top40, nor Peruvian/ Latin music. My family loved Sharks - the food is good with huge portions - and we're already planning our next visit! Highly recommend this spot.

    Arroz de Mariscos

    I went to the Blackstone River Explorer Tour and as a thank you for riding, they allow you to use your receipt for 10% off at sharks since the businesses are side by side. It gave me an excuse to try this restaurant since I believe it's relatively new. The outside of the building is beautiful, and I love the white and black contrast. The outdoor seating is also perfect since it does overlook the river. However, I was not too impressed with the inside. I was expecting the ambiance to match the modern vibe the outside gave but it looked plain, with red carpet and thick legged wooden tables and chairs. It did have high ceilings which was a highlight. One thing we were disappointed in was the complimentary starter they give. It's a plate with a little sauce cup filled with cancha, another with a green sauce, and another with tartar sauce. The problem was that I guess we were expected to share 20ish cancha among a table of 5 which was odd and did not come with any silverware. I would expect a larger portion for a larger party (parties of 2 were getting the same portion). I will say the green sauce was very good, with the perfect spice level and flavor. I ordered the seafood rice and my mom ordered the Jalea so we'd be able to share it. We were a bit confused on the difference between the two different kinds of seafood rice on the menu but we went with the "Arroz on Mariscos" instead of "Arroz a la Norteña con Mariscos." I'm used to getting a yellow sauce (I think aji Amarillo sauce) with my seafood rice at other Peruvian restaurants but this rice did not come with it and it appears they don't make it here since I asked and they brought out Huancaina instead so that was disappointing. The rice was decent in flavor but the serving size was big which made up for it. The Jalea was good, and contained a variety of seafood, but I did wish it came with more squid tentacles. It came with tartar sauce for a dip but I would have preferred something different, more fresh. The prices are around the same price as other places. There is more than enough parking and it is in a nice location so you could go on a walk along the bridge after dinner to walk off the food.

    Fried shrimp and fries
    Jocelyn A.

    1. Mango margarita: rich, perfect amount of alcohol 5/5 2. Fried shrimp and fries: shrimp was perfectly fried. Shrimp tasted delicious. French fries could have used some seasoning 4/5 3. Causa acevichada: this dish blew my mind!!! I tend to stay away from seafood but the ceviche was amazing! The best part was the delectable sauce of the dish. A spice that doesn't burn in a bad way. I would definitely try again 10/5 4. Flan: the best flan I've had in a very long time. So rich and creamy without being overwhelming eggy 5/5

    I finally stopped in this restaurant after bookmarking this place a few months ago…read more Noticed a lot of the yelpers was comparing this business to the Los Andes restaurant. And few of the reviews even stated that this restaurant was just as good but less expensive. And some reviews indicated it was a hit or miss when dining here. I just have to say that yes it's cheaper and no it should not be compared Los Andes. They may both be of a Peruvian cuisine but that's where the similarities ends. The product you get here is ok and cheaper and that's ok if you're not too worried about the quality and the taste, atmosphere or the service. This is a small dated restaurant that offers no atmosphere what so ever. Definitely not a clean restaurant by any means. Table surface was tacky and looks like the floor was not swept. I see scraps and debris under the table. So this was the the order Stuffed avocado app ( wasn't available) 1/2 rotisserie chicken ($9.50 good not dried out, but it's rotisserie chicken) Picante de marisco ( $13.99 seafood in a spicy salsa, Missing the octopus, came w/ 1 clam 2 mussel 3 shrimp,and small pieces of calamari It was bland and definitely not a hint of heat in this "spicy salsa" Arroz con marisco ( $13.99 seafood rice, Missing the octopus, came w/ 1 clam 2 mussel 3 shrimp,and small pieces of calamari This dish was also lacking in flavor So the octopus was the reason we ordered the seafood dishes and was omitted from the dishes. And the 1 clam and 2 mussels was the consolation I assume.

The views alone are beautiful right near point street. They do have heaters outside if it gets chilly. The drinks were good. I especially liked the coconut mojito. The appetizers were delicious. I did like my meal I had the quinoa bowl with salmon but I belt the lime or lemon they used over powered the bowl. I would next time ask for it in the side. I was with 3 other coworkers and we all did enjoy our time. Our waitress Sabrina was sweet, friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes. I would say dress casual. They have street parking which can be a little tricky depending on the time. We had no issues parking in a Friday @5:30pm. Just a side note if you want to walk off your meal I would suggest walking down to the pedestrian bridge it has beautiful views especially in the evening. You might get lucky and catch some entertainment
