Chaufa Mixta
Tim W.

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.

Crab Causa!!
Gerry L.

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.

Lomo Saltado
Salvador G.

So far this is one of the better better Peruvian restaurants. Good portion and nice place with good service. I judge by the most common dish lomo saltado and it was tasty.

Tigre Nikkei Roll
Tricia K.

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.

Very nice dining room
Carlo V.

Wow nice , and brand new. I just got here for the first time and I am very impressed with the service the food and the prices. A much needed change to the pizza and sushi here , the desserts are unbelievable and so is their food. And you can actually hear each other talking because the music is not blasting like in most restaurants in Miami , I will definitely be coming back.

Awesome local spot with amazing Peruvian food! Everything we tried here was great - I got anticuchos and the lomo saltado with pasta to share. Meat was juicy and make sure to ask for the rocoto sauce for extra spice. Get the sangria as well!

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.

Causa
Sarah A.

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

Tallarin Verde with Lomo Saltado. Perfect, and we ordered two at our table.
James V. B.

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.

Maracuyá cake very delicious
Ana V.

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.

Rib Eye Saltado

This is first time for us. Every dish we ordered was delicious. We will definitely go back again.

Peter M.

Excellent Peruvian food and great service. The pricing was manageable and the overall experience was wonderful. I love this location on the border of Coral Gables, ideal for takeout ceviche. I wish them luck, I will be coming back many, many more times.

We are in Miami overnight and wanted to experience some local cuisine and expand our culinary…read morehorizons. After some research, we opted to try Ceviches by Divino. We really had never tried Ceviche before, but the online menu really looked spectacular. Our waitress was Angie, and she was fantastic. Such a great personality, and she went out of her way to explain all the details before we ordered. It's actually disappointing that we are just passing through and may never go back, because I would seriously like to try every last item. Rather than bore you with the list of everything we ordered, I'll share what we considered to be the best of the best. CALAMARI... we both love calamari, and we have eaten this dish at many different places. This was the best ever. Perfect. CEVICHE DE SALMON EN CANASTA DE TOSTON... seriously one of the most delicious things I have ever put in my mouth. While we did order both the ceviche camaron and the ceviche trio mixto, the hands-down winner, no questions asked, was the CEVICHE DIVINO. We finished with the TORTA DE CHOCOLATE and the smoothest, creamiest cup of coffee ever. My wife is a chocolate cake expert, and while I was finishing all the ceviche, she was having an out of body experience with the cake. I have to say that while we are borderline foodies and love cooking and eating, we probably are not the most adventurous. So glad today was different, and so thrilled with our decision to eat here. 10/10

Tacu Taku Peruvian Kitchen is a real gem if you're looking for authentic Peruvian cuisine…read more Everything - from the dishes to the Peruvian beer felt genuine and delicious. It's located in a very unassuming spot, tucked into a parking lot in a slightly industrial area, but don't let that fool you. Inside, you'll find something special. What stood out even more was the owner/manager, who went to great lengths to make us feel welcome. He took the time to explain the menu and recommend the best choices for both food and drinks, making the whole experience feel personal and effortless. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and combined with the authenticity of the food, it makes for a memorable visit. Definitely worth seeking out.

Upon arrival we noticed there was a dinning tent area set up outside which was empty more likely because of the heat as it was really hot out. We went inside and were greeted by a nice waitress and seated right away. Ambience was nice and dimmed lights. I appreciated the string lights and greenery decor. We ordered the Lomo Saltado which was a bit on the salty side for my taste but the jazmin rice was cooked to perfection. The Pescado a lo macho was ok. I had better. Ceviche was actually good not too tangy. Service was fast.

I rolled the dice and chose MAYU, a Peruvian restaurant located on the outskirts of Brickell. As soon as we walked into the restaurant the host was super welcoming. We got sat and immediately got greeted by our server ALEXANDER who happened to be a key element in our food experience. Many might overlook his presence as people are trying to look at the menu and figure out what they want to eat, but if you pay close attention the server, he will guide you to the best food experience you will ever encounter. Food we had in order: 1. Ceviche Classico 100/100 ( my husbands rating) 2. Ceviche del barrio 10/10 3. Acevichado roll 10/10 4. Hotate Parma without cream cheese 10/10 5. Pulpo anticuchero 10/10 (the octopus was so tender and delicious 6. Lomo saltado 10/10 ( amazing tender meat) must have !! Just as we were getting ready to leave we met Santiago, the manager and I asked him, "Why don't you have a Michelin star?!?!?" My mind was blown by how delicious and beautiful this food was. I wish them the best. This is truly a place to come and enjoy amazing Peruvian food. HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. If you're a local here, DO NOT WALK PAST THIS ESTABLISHMENT. A special thanks to Alexander who made our experience amazing by explaining every dish and making us feel as if we were dining at his home. Would love a MAYU in LA.

Our server Claudia was so nice and helpful with explaining the different dishes. You also are treated to a complimentary mocktail and sweet yam bite to start. Claudia even provided us a tablet to see the pictures of the various dishes offered which helped us decide what to try. We started off with a mocktail that had coconut, passion fruit, hibiscus tea and pineapple. That drink was delicious and I didn't miss the alcohol. For starters we had the salmon crispy rice and that was so filling and delicious. Then we had the scallops in the black truffle sauce which was perfect a seared to perfection. We also ordered the kumogani roll which is crab based and that was very tasty with or without soy sauce. We loved everything we tried and will definitely go back to try other items on the menu. I highly recommend trying them out if you're in the area.

I personally love ají de gallina, this dish takes aji de gallina to the next level. My husband ordered sushi but I don't recall the name of his order lol they were so good though and fresh. The place was beautifully decorated with Amazonian style plants and really cool lighting features. It was cozy and romantic. The service was top notch.
