The food was overly salty and not enjoyable. On top of that, the customer service was disappointing and not attentive. Overall, not a great experience. The anticuchos had no flavor and picarones were not good. read more

BEWARE of the guy taking orders over the phone. He charged me $12 extra for corvina even though I said fish but never specified corvina, on top of that never got any utensils or napkins. AWEFUL service and a theft.......................Tenga CUIDADO cuando pidan comida por telefono, este chico me cobro $12 extra y le puso corvina a todos los platos sin el preguntarme que pescado queria, encima no me puso ni cubiertos ni servilletas, un robo y mal servicio read more

My experience was amazing First time in this restaurant We were greeted warmly by a Venezuelan server , this review is for the location near 137 Ave I ordered a seafood chaufa rice and the taste and quality was outstanding, less amount than chalans restaurants but better quality and taste , what a pleasant experience, I'll be back soon Congratulations read more

The ceviche choices are diverse. And some of the best outside of Peru. The Chaufa Mixta was a very large portion. Very good and the meats were tender and grilled perfectly. The server was very pleasant and attentive. read more

Looking for some quick spot to take my mom on a busy Saturday, this was definitely a win! I enjoyed their ceviche and chaufas, they do start with some chips on the table and their lemonades are a highlight. They are pretty busy in the weekends, so I do recommend making a reservation. The kitchen is pretty quick nonetheless. Ample parking up front shared with CVS and the other restaurants on the strip mall. read more

Peruvian restaurants have really became more mainstream in the last ten years in the 305. It also very competitive and recently we decided to try a new joint called Taipa located off 57 ave and Bird Road. The exterior has a nice earthy and modern feel and the menu contains all the classic Peruvian dishes. For starters we ordered their crab causa topped with sliced avocados. The causa was really good and unique because they blow torch the sides which gave it a smokey taste. For the main entree we ordered their grilled seafood platter with a side of Yuca and their huancaina sauce. The seafood consist of large octopus tentacles, calamari rings, and mussels all very fresh and flavorful. The yuca was lightly fried and crunchy. For dessert we order their picarones (fried Peruvian donuts), which was delicious and crispy. We really enjoyed our meal and looking forward to dine there again. read more

Taipa is quite good. We have a few nice Peruvian restaurants near by and this one is up to par with the others. Food is excellent, prompt and courteous service, tasty pisco sours and not less important, good parking. Ambiance is nice, not too noisy and pleasant background music. We plan to visit again soon. read more

My friend choose this place because her Peruvian coworker said it was the best Peruvian restaurant in Miami. I started with a lemonade and my friend had a pisco sour. We shared a Ceviche Clasico with corvina. The fish was a little fishy but my friend liked it. I ordered the Tigre Nikkei sushi roll as my meal. I could only eat half. It was delicious! My friend had the Sudado de Pescado, which she enjoyed. Overall the food and the service were great! Will be back to try other dishes. read more

This new Peruvian restaurant is a delight. The vibe is welcoming, bright and open. There's a bar if you'd like to sit and eat, but they only serve beer and wine. No hard liquor. The service here is great, which is surprising for a restaurant that hasn't even been open for 2 months. There weren't many people in the restaurant but the time we arrived was weird and it is a Peruvian restaurant in a Cuban neighborhood. The bathrooms are worth mentioning. Cute decor, cute pics, light and bright. I just had to put this in here. We started with Pilsen Beer as they brought out the plantain chips & traditional crunchy corn to our table. We ordered a mix of different items to taste and share. We ordered a Tuna Tartar. Excellent, although not a traditional tartar. This tartar is made with acevichado sauce, a white sauce that tasted like leche de Tigre from ceviche. Different and delicous. Yuca a la Huancaina - love this dish! Although this dish is made from smashed yucca paste and not a traditional piece of sliced yuca, it was very yummy. The star of the dish though is the Huancaina sauce, it's scrumptious! Causa de Pulpo Anticuchero. Octopus marinated in panca spices and chalaca sauce. Served cold. Very tasty. Vuelve a la Vida. Chopped fish, we chose Corvina, with cilantro, onions & Ceviche juice served in a beautiful glass. This dish is a star!!! So flavorful, so smooth and so very fresh! Conchitas a la parmesana. Baked scallops served in the shell topped with butter and melted parmesan cheese, making this dish mouthwatering. Rocoto Ceviche de Pescado - Corvina. Fresh fish marinated with a blend of creamy red pepper and lime juice, coriander and onions. served with Cancha, glazed sweet potato and Peruvian corn. Absolutely scrumptious. Picarones Desert donuts similar to Cuban buñuelos made with almivar and fried like donuts. A sweet, crunchy and very flavorful desert, probably the best desert on the menu. I'm looking forward to coming back here. There are so many items on the menu I still want to try. I definitely recommend this wonderful Peruvian restaurant and encourage you to try them and do the same. read more

Really good stop for lunch. Had a minute to eat lunch and stopped at this new place. Had the lomo saltiado with green pasta. Spectacular. Great choice on my part. I'll be back soon. read more

Taipá is an incredible gem! My fiancée and I had been meaning to try it for a while. Another restaurant nearby that we love was very busy, so it was a perfect occasion to try something new. We loved everything about this place! Cozy, comfortable atmosphere, tender beef with incredible seasoning and depth of flavor, friendly host and wait staff, and amazing dessert options. Plus, ample free parking in the Red Bird parking lot! Our experience from the moment we arrived until we left was perfection. We look forward to visiting again soon! read more

When I first got to the restaurant around 6:15pm it was quiet, just one other table. By the time I left it was packed. I ordered the following. Juice- Chicha Morada, a burst of flavor. 5/5 Appetizer- Chicken Causa, I missed the cue that this was a cold app, but it was fine, just not for me. 4/5 Entree- Mariscos Saltado, this was really good, it came a variety of seafood, I did wish it came with more shrimp. 4/5 read more

Excellent ceviche. Extensive, varied menu loaded with delicious, authentic Peruvian dishes.

My wife, son (11), and I just had an excellent New Years Eve dinner at this place, which I had tagged in Yelp in recent months. My wife is Peruvian from Arequipa and in the 12 years we've been married she's been a great guide into Peruvian food. We've eaten in Peruvian restaurants in the New York tristate area, in Canada, and now that we live in Florida, lots of places here. I don't know how we didn't try Taipa earlier but we are happy and impressed with the staff, management, decor, and food. My son loves tallarines verdes but usually has a protein side so he chose the lomo saltado accompaniment that also comes with two roasted potatoes. This sounded good when I ordered so I ordered the same. My wife ordered the fried fish, choosing corvina, that comes with leche de tigre, tartar sauce, and fried yucca. We started with papa Huacaina. All of us raved and carried on how delicious the appetizer and meals were. We've been to C.viche 105 often think this is on par or perhaps better. The pesto is very creamy, making it rich and different, and the lomo saltado is flavorful, has top-grade tomatoes and red onions, and was just stellar. The beef was tender, as is proper. From this, and my wife's comments on the leche de tigre and homemade tartar sauce, and the smoothie huacaina sauce on the potato appetizer, it is clear Taipa knows their sauces. Our desserts of lucuma mousse with a crispy chocolate center and my maracuyá mouse on top of sponge cake with a maracuyá gel on top, were perfect. In all, Taipa and their team are amazing. We are coming back. read more

Beautiful place , nice atmosphere and Excellent food until a selfish patron seat down with a Dog ! Really not even a Service Dog which now a days all you have to do is buy a harness in Amazon. If you are so in love with your dog that you have to ruin other people quite time have dinner at home . For the restaurant one dog dinner and loose clients. read more

Had lunch for the first time at Taipa. We started out sharing the Pulpo a la Parrilla which was so tasty served with potatoes and Peruvian corn. For my main course I had the maracuyá ceviche with corvina and shrimp and lastly we shared a maracuyá cake which was rich tasting but light. I would definitely come again and try other dishes. Our server Alejandro went out of his way to answer all of our questions and gave us great service. The restaurant is spacious and tastefully decorated. There is parking in the lot but it does get pretty full. read more

Wow Taipa is a genuinely authentic Peruvian masterpiece that just opened in the Coral Gables area. It's been a major upgrade to the center and the interior renovation is gorgeous. The Conchitas a la Parmesana and tiradadito was delicious. The octopus causa's had smoky flavor and depth of creaminess was a party in your mouth. The fish was fresh, music was good, and decor and ambiance was just what the area needed. Can't wait to go back for more Peruvian flavors. read more

This is my second review of Taipa in the last three years. A quick lunch with a friend did not disappoint. We both had the rocoto mixed and it was delicious, refreshing and well-balanced. I am very picky about restaurant ceviches because they are usually very acidic to avoid anyone getting sick but Taipa's ceviche was well balanced in flavor and proportion. The service continues to be outstanding; friendly, a big genuine smile and you don't have to beg to have your glass water refilled. It is a small but cozy restaurant and it is always full which is a sign of excellent food and service. Will definitely keep coming back. Great job! read more

This is one of the BEST! Places I ever tried before . The food has that touch of greatness that other places don't have. I can't say enough good things about this place. The moment I walked in, it smelled amazing--like fresh lime and spices that instantly make you hungry. Easily the best Peruvian restaurant I've ever been to! . read more

Wow, excellent food and service at a reasonable price. Lomo saltado, tuca tuca, short rib stew, cheviche appetizer. All beautifully prepared, large portions, they don't skimp. Everyone said their food was great. The Tuca tuca was just like I've had in Lima. The atmosphere is lively but not obnoxious. Friday night at 7pm it was full, make a reservation on weekends. Several people waiting at the door. I feel like the prices are 30-40% less than a comparable restaurant. For example , they have an excellent bottle of Chardonnay for 26 bucks. I've spend 12 for a glass next door at pizza Brooklyn. Staff was professional and friendly. In the Red Bird shopping center, lots of parking. They have a little bar, definitely hanging out here sometime. I love this place. Go here, prove me wrong. !!!! read more

BEST new Peruvian in the area! This is such a welcome addition to the Gables/South Miami area. I discovered their Kendall location about a year ago and I'm thrilled they're now in my area. The jalea mixta was piping hot with supple pieces of seafood and an incredible onion and lime topping. The causa de pulpo had a rich and creamy texture with a limey but balanced sauce. Then there was the rocoto ceviche which really hit the mark!! The servers were ultra friendly and the beautiful decor could not go unnoticed. Oh, and a welcome difference about Taipa that sets it apart from its neighbors... it's open on Mondays!! read more

What an amazing hidden gem on Bird Rd & 57th Ave. The entire experience was superb. The food was amazing and the service was even better. I came in on a Saturday night around 7pm. The restaurant was not packed but most of the tables were reserved so I sat at the bar. The chairs were comfy and there was plenty of space to eat comfortably. The mixto lomo salteado was super yummy. Jorge at the bar was outstanding and made the dining experience a 10 out of 10. He was engaging and accommodating. Totally recommend you give this place a try. read more
