Cerviche Duo - Basa cerviche and Chicharron de Pescado, both are delicious Maracuya was a medium sized carafe Chicken Skewers were delicious Causa with Octopus was very good Seafood Aeropuerto Chaufa is delicious! I'll be back for more. We had no idea these plates were so big, we ordered for a whole family lol. I honestly thought the ceviche would be a small cup hehehe

This upscale Peruvian restaurant is very easy to find in the heart of Garfield. The ambience was…read morevery Latin centric with upscale field and Instagram worthy decor. The salsa music in the background gave it a nice touch as we enjoy a great appetizers and plentiful meals with phenomenal flavor. Highly suggested to try any of their wide range of plates, including the soups, ceviche, and fish dishes, and classic lomo and steak plates. The salad, including the mango and avocado salad was a hit, especially with the red onion. The only downside is we came on a Tuesday afternoon and the kitchen was understaffed so the food came out a little bit slow. However, everything was hot and still tasted amazing so we really didn't mind waiting for a little bit while catching up. The space is a small restaurant in a shopping plaza and will not easily accommodate parties larger than six. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area and are looking for an upscale twist to classic Peruvian cuisine.

Outstanding food and excellent service!!!…read more I had a great experience at Santa Brasa. The food was full of flavor and cooked perfectly, especially the grilled items which really stood out. Everything tasted fresh, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. The staff was attentive and welcoming, making sure we were taken care of from start to finish. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great place for both casual meals and special occasions. Overall, Santa Brasa delivers quality food and a top-notch dining experience. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to coming back again.

I recently visited Santa Brava with my wife and our in-laws, and once again we had an absolutely…read morewonderful dining experience. We ordered three lomo saltado dishes (delicious, perfectly cooked), and my wife had the seafood soup, which was rich, flavorful and comforting. Each dish was served hot, fresh, and full of flavor -- clearly prepared with care. The service was friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The portion sizes were generous, and for the quality and taste we felt it was excellent value. The ambiance was relaxed and pleasant -- ideal for a family meal. This was our third time in under four months, and the quality has been consistently top-notch every single time. They've proven they can deliver excellent food and service over multiple visits -- no drop in standards. If you're looking for a place with great Peruvian/Latin food in Clifton NJ, attentive service, and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend Santa Brava. We'll be back again soon!

Had the chicharrón sandwich which was crowned "Campeón del Mundo" in breakfast foods around the world. And also tried the Lomo Al jugo with a side of different breads to assemble your own yummy sandwich. It was all so good! I couldn't pick a favorite, they were both excellent and extremely satiating, I was full until dinner time after eating that for breakfast. The breads they have are all Peruvian style bread and are freshly baked every morning. The place is small and humble but packs a punch of flavor! Went with my boyfriend and enjoyed every bite. The coffee is pretty good too! Over all great food and service.They give you spicy sauce on the side and whatever other sauces you may want for your meal or sandwich. Muy bueno!!! Todos los sándwiches hechos a la orden, el pansito bien fresco me gustó la experiencia. Todo estuvo muy rico y bien servido. Seguro volveré muy pronto!

For dinner we ordered "pescado a lo macho" one with fillet fish and the other with a whole fish. Dish comes with a sauce and white rice. The sauce was delicious. I will say the fish was a salty. I will try this spot again because i do like that they have different protein options on most dishes and that there is a quinoa option. Which is a plus because my mom is a pescatarian.

Highly rated Peruvian food at Montclair downtown so I decided to give a try. The food is…read morewonderful!!! It's a small place (5-6 tables) so it's better you go early or make a reservation. Parking is tricky since it's at downtown area (meter street parking at paid parking lot). Grilled octopus is really tender and flavorful, the sauce on top brings it to another level. Calamari is not the best, I feel it's cold. It's very small , all I can taste is the fried batch. I don't recommend. Arrozo Con Marisico is a must try. Basically rice soaked in seafood broth, very flavorful and soft. It comes with variety of seafood in there. Perfect portion for me. The staff is nice and attentive. Homey decorations. Clean. Definitely give a try when you are at the neighborhood.

I had tried Aji Limon many years ago, before El Fogon took over, and unfortunately, the quality of…read morethe food and the service have both declined. We waited 10 minutes before we were able to get a menu, then another 10 for someone to take our order. The food took over 30 minutes to be served and they don't provide any snacks (Peruvian restaurants usually give you canchita to snack on while you wait); our server was very rude to us, she was the one to "greet us" when we entered and just looked me up and down and walked away, then we were seated and had ordered drinks, she didn't bring my water at all - I had to ask a different server to please bring me water after 15 minutes. We spent around an hour and a half at the restaurant solely because of how long it took to serve us, bring out the food, and get the check. The jalea and ceviche were both okay - not the best but also not the worst I have tried. I asked the ceviche to be spicy and it wasn't, nor was I given rocoto on the side when I asked for it. The jalea only had calamari and fish, when it's supposed to also have octopus, shrimp, etc. I will not be coming back.

Unfortunately, though serviceable, this restaurant was a bit of a letdown. The Ceviche Mixto and Ceviche De Camarones were just average for me. They tasted fresh, but lacked any real flavor. On the other hand, their Anticuchos was quite enjoyable. Maybe they do cooked dishes better. I might come back to try other menu items next time in the area, but currently on the questionable list.

They seem to have good food as well. I haven't tried it yet, but I definitely will as I will be coming more often to this place. They do have valet parking. Parking around this area is bad!
