Aromas del Peru

Great spot! The service was good from the moment they welcome you. The only negative was that there is this man who seems to be the manager or something who goes around and has a bad aura, he gives this overbearing feeling, while being nice to patrons, it transmits a feeling that you know employees do not feel comfortable. He watches every employees moves. I guess the idea might be good, to have someone look over at all the customers are being looked after but it just gave me bad vibes and bad feeling. The food: fantastic. Really great flavors and good portions. Better than I expected!

The food is really good, the environment and decoration are very nice too. The service is wonderful as well. If you come here ask for Jesus he was the one that served us, he’s very charming 🫶

It's visit number 4 with my family, today I ordered a fried snapper and apparently there wasn't a more malnourished and skinny one, they also roasted it so much that it had almost no dough, we are still inside the restaurant as I post this review. I don't recommend it, we won't be back. After the review I called the manager and he told me that I should have called him earlier and that I had the right to express myself, a tremendous demonstration of respect to the customer.

The food and service is absolutely amazing! And the prices are affordable! Miet was our server and she was incredibly sweet and genuine. We spent approximately $50 per person, which includes appetizers, cocktails, the main course as well all desert.

We tried Aromas del Peru during a 9 hour layover in Miami. It was 12 minutes from the airport and parking was easy. I was impressed by the flavors of the food. We had the classic fish ceviche, the arroz chaufa with beef and the lomo saltado. For dessert we had the lucuma cheesecake and also tried the chicha morada pisco sour. We went on a Sunday around 12:45pm and were seated immediately. Service was fast. We noticed the place getting packed as we were leaving.

Great food and service! Even though we sat outside, the ambience was still good. The wait was not super long and the food came out amazing. Was definitely surprised by the flavors. Would definitely recommend a try if you ate around!

Great food great ambiance, the only little thing was the churrasco was tough and over cooked even though me and my wife asked medium, other than that everything was excellent

We had lunch and it was great, the food amazing and good portions. Our server Jesus was very attentive and made sure we had a quick and good service

I love this place! I've been coming here for a while and realized I never wrote a review about it! There are a few locations around town. I've been to 2 Kendall area locations & this one in West Miami is near where I work sometimes. The parking is tricky but I recently found out that besides valet parking there's also roof top parking. This location is the largest one I've been to. It's nit only spacious but beautifully decorated. There are touches of Peruvian art but not gaudy at all. There are very large windows that surround the room. It makes very light and bright. I came here for lunch after a dental appointment that was around the corner. I needed to eat soft food after a dental procedure. I was craving something delicious & yummy! The waiter brought Causa de tuna as sample "free tasting " along with our corn nuts., Boy was this flavorful & yummy! I had to order it as it hit the spot! The presentation was also beautiful. The plate was dotted with carrot purée & not only was it pretty it added another dimension of flavor when mixed with the creamy potatoes. The wait staff I friendly & accommodating. I wanted Chicha morada but didn't want the added sugar so he offered to have them make without the simple syrup. It was refreshing & delicious. They have a full bar here so it's suitable for any celebration or just a nice evening of cocktails & a great dinner!

Food was very tasty, tostones very fresh and crispy but not hard. Mia, our waitress was spectacular, best service ever Ambience is very authentic and fancy at the same time. We wanted more Andean music

Wow. I mean wow. Came here last night for dinner. Pretty empty but it was early Monday evening. Seated quickly and everyone is so nice. Parking is interesting. Either pay 8$ for valet or roof parking and that is a little scary. But doable. I had the spicy mama and it was good. Not as spicy as I like and they upgraded the alcohol without asking me but it was good and strong. We had Ronda fría and wow. All the fish was so fresh and delicious. The flavors went so good with the fish. It wasn't what I expected but definitely worth it. I'm not too sure about the little potato thing w tuna on top. Not for me. But the fish is amazing. Ended with a cheesecake luma and it was very good. Ended the meal nicely. Highly recommend and definitely will be back.

On our visit to Aromas Del Peru we decided to take advantage of the cool January midday weather and opted to sit on the shaded patio where we were cordially greeted and treated by an army of wait staff from the hostess, bottled water service, appetizer server, primary waiter, and desert server while we people and car watched as the world sped by on the adjacent roadway. The area was clean and orderly. The menu was extensive with excellent descriptions of each item. My wife ordered the Michelada Tropical while I simply ordered a beer. The Michelada was massive and was very refreshing. We were provided with a cup of soup along with roasted corn and sauce. The soup was a touch on the oily side that was a little odd to begin with but I could not stop drinking it. For the main course, I had the ceviche 3 ajies mix with corvina fish and my wife had the corvina gratinada with tostones. The ceviche, as the name implies, was three servings each with its own distinct sauce; rocoto, limo, and yellow spice. Each sauce was gastronomically successful and could be slurped all on its own. The corvina gratinada was full of complex flavors but a touch heavy on the salt. Finally, we ordered one cuatro leches to share. This had to be the best "tres" leche I have ever had. It was not overly sweet or soaked and the pastry still had a good chew to it. If nothing else, I would visit again just for the desert. As an aside, when we asked what deserts they had, it was an old school presentation of their dessert offerings, something that seems to have become prehistoric in the restaurant industry but something that I greatly appreciate. Overall, the menu items are on the mid-high end of the price scale but on this visit, what we had were well worth the price. The only knock is the high salt content but if they were closer to my locale, this would be a frequent visit.

Wow! Hubby and I loved this place! Service was outstanding from the moment we were greeted by the host. We sat in their outdoor area on a hot Friday afternoon, under the gentle cool breeze of the fans and perfect soundtrack of Latin and loungy music. We immediately ordered a Cuzqueña beer that came in a cold glass. So refreshing! Sandy was our wonderful server. We ordered the Chaufa with chicken and Tacu Tacu. We didn't think we'd get an appetizer, but we were enticed by the ceviche mixto with leche de tigre. DIVINE! The main course arrived shortly and enjoyed it with a second round of beers. Sandy brought over a tier of crazy-good desserts. We got the chocolate cake. It was orgasmic! I can't believe we waited so long to come here. We'll be back again and again!

In reference to: Aromas del Peru on 5757 SW 8th Street 33144 Saturday May 18th, 2024. at 3:00 pm. As always, the food was great, parking is free and plentiful (up the steep ramp in the back of the building). The staff members as always, are very attentive and professional. However, the music soundtrack played in the restaurant throughout our stay was completely inappropriate and quite disturbing. Bachata, and Merengue, are types of music for dancing and partying not for accompanying a Peruvian meal. Our waitress was very receptive when we expressed our comments about the music.

The food was great. We had the Sangria which was delicious The lomo salteado and the fried rice Great ambiance exclusive bar, the service was excellent. We loved it ! Close to our house an valet parking made this Restaurant very convenient for a second visit, in the near future.

I had lunch two weeks ago on Saturday and I really liked it . Services was good and fast. All ladies very nice , friendly and professional. The place looks nice and clean . And the good was super good we had a arroz chaufa it was delicious . I will go back to have it again.

Andrina was great, she really attentive and had extensive knowledge of the menu. The food was amazing also. So much flavor. The fried rice is better than any Asian fried rice I've had in a long time. Sunday had a good vibe, not too packed, but enough people.

I absolutely love this Peruvian restaurant in Miami--it's easily one of my favorites. The service is exceptional, with attentive and knowledgeable waiters who are always ready to recommend dishes. The citric ceviche is a must try as an appetizer, bursting with tangy flavors and fresh seafood. For the main course, I highly recommend the tallarin verde with churrasco-- which is a combination of perfectly cooked pasta in a basil sauce. The food here always tastes incredibly fresh, and you can tell they take great pride in their ingredients. Aside from the fantastic food and service, the convenience of street parking right next to the restaurant is a plus. Highly recommend!

Amazing crazy good food and the staff was incredible helpful and friendly... will come back and try other dishes

Jalea Mixta, Ceviche Achorado, pulpo al olivo, ceviche mixto, Pisco traditional/passion fruit. That's the list of what we stuffed our faces with... I believe I got everything right. lol Feel like we ordered one side of the menu Reminder to the "brave": Don't tell them to bring the heat. We did! They replied! Challenge accepted lol Nice friendly, quick staff. Nice outdoor ambiance.

Food is unusually good. Service is excellent, and, although I don't go often, they all remember me. Small, intimate and good for conversation.

Great food and ambience. Amanda is a solid host and ensures you are happy with the service. I had the tacu tacu and recommend this Peruvian spot.

I really wanted to like this place but it was missing the "wow" factor. Great pisco drinks, good service, food was okay, ambiance is nice as establishment is clean and cultural. The chicken (ají de gallina) was really good and the sauce with it was delicious. I wasn't aware it also came with potatoe and rice that also isn't substitutable (I have never had a restaurant indicate that before) so had to order side of veggies for additional cost. The lomo saltado was also good. The meat of the chuscurro was pretty rough. Staff was amicable.

I went to this terrific restaurant on the advice of a friend. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. Plenty of times the recommendation doesn't live up to the hype, but let me tell you the food and service was as good as I have had in 5 star restaurants. The staff was so attentive in fact, that I didn't see a beverage glass below half full. Lighting that was on each table added a very nice atmosphere when sunset occurred. I understand that there are a couple of these restaurants. I cannot speak for the rest of them, but if they are anything like this one do not miss dining here.

Love the ceviche and the pulpo. Delicious. I absolutely love this place. The service is always on point. We always request the same table

Really good quality food. Excellent service as well. It is the spot to go that never misses. 100% recommended

I had gone to Aromas del Perú many times when there were at their other location. Very small place but super delicious food. After they moved and also opened a restaurant at Coral Gables. I first visited the Coral Gables one and it did not disappoint. I recently visited the one on 8th St and it keeps being as amazing as always. The food as delicious as I remembered and the place looks great. The services was also good. Really recommend, I have no complaints except that you have no parking, only valet available for $8.

The food was incredible -- ceviche was a must have. Eddie was a phenomenal host. The tostone were very crispy and traditional with a modern twist

First timer here, came in for lunch today. Went with some thing simple, grilled chicken breast , white rice and tostones. It was perfect. The flavor , presentation and the service was top notch . I would definitely return.

Peruvian food is one of my favorites and I really wanted to love this place, I ordered the Corvina a lo Macho; and I did not like it at all the sauce was not like others I tried before the creaminess or flavor were not there, and the scallops were cut in huge chunks, and the shrimp were rubbery from being over cooked. The service is good and there's other dishes my friends ordered that were good. I'd definitely give them another try. The outside sitting area is pretty nice. I am not sure about the parking in the surrounding area, but they have valet parking which is convenient. The guy was nice enough to accept payment through Cash App since I didn't have any cash on me.

Our hotel concierge recommended this place & it did not disappoint! Food & service was amazing! We ordered 4 dishes that our server Julio recommended & all of them had phenomenal flavors! Especially the fried fish! We also tried 2 amazing desserts! I can't wait to come back again

Hammocks location- delicious, nice atmosphere and great service!!!! Loved it would definitely recommend!

si estás leyendo esto es una señal que tienes que venir aquí, que te puedo decir mejor servicio no lo hay la comida excelentes porciones perfectas el manager muy atento nos mandaron hacer los menú personalizados con el nombre de muestro negocio fue perfecto .

This is a little gem! The food is delectable, the service is excellent and the owner is very friendly. I took my mom and my aunt. They loved it. It was my aunt's birthday and they gave her dessert on the house. The owner came over to converse with them and he made two elderly ladies extremely happy! Definitely recommend and will return! Thank you for taking such good care of them! Greatly appreciated!

Great ambiance, great food. The wait staff was polite and delivered what was ordered.

I'm going to recommend this restaurant because of the fresh seafood, service and atmosphere. Visited on Sunday for my sister's birthday. She and my brother-in-law shared a ceviche bowl. It was fresh and abundant. They ordered a side of sweet potato as their plate was served with only one small piece. They each ordered risotto huancaina with lomo saltado. They enjoyed it and remarked about the flavor and nicely presented plate. I ordered corvina fillet grilled with a side of veggies and tostones. The fish was delicious with light seasoning and the veggies were phenomenal. The tostones were crisp all the way through which is difficult to do. Dessert (suspiro limeño) was presented with a huge sparkler atop a decorated plate with happy birthday inscribed ; several servers came to the table and sang happy birthday. Nice touch. Our hostess Jocelyn, approached us and also wished my sister a happy birthday. We shared small talk and she is truly an asset to the establishment. The only drawback is driving up and made to feel that the only available parking is Valet which is not! We found out later, by the manager, that they have ample parking upstairs by ways of a ramp. Apparently the valet is not run by the restaurant, but by the building management. That aside, I will definitely return. Kudos to the manager for such a great experience! Buongiorno

Tucked away in west Miami you have this nice Peruvian restaurant. It's got a great ambiance and service that matches expectations. With great seating outside or inside you choose. It's nestled between 6 other dine options but usually is the only one bustling. Now it is a bit far so for that reason I felt like pricing was above what I expected. I did however, order 2 items that were the "chef specials" $48 (steak and rice) and a marisco appetizer ($52). I don't ask for pricing but was a bit surprised that this far out I would find myself in this price range. I did enjoy both plates but not the price. Hope this helps. 1- ambiance 1- service 1- cleanliness 1- Food Quality 0- Price $$$$

Friendly staff, excellent food and service. Not too fond of valet parking. A more diverse beer list is needed.

Family party (15 people) was done here and I have to say that the food, pricing and quality don't match at all, I ordered a filete mignon. Food was tasteless, the only taste I had was the rice, not even the main part of the dish. If this doesn't deter you from eating here, PLEASE CHECK YOUR BILL BEFORE YOU PAY. They charged us 2 filete mignon ($42 each) which we only bought 1, plus other additional dishes. They additionally state that tip is not added but it's clearly added on the bottom of the receipt. I have to say that me or my family won't be eating here and not recommending any further services. Might as well go to Miller's Ale House, better food and service.

One of the restaurants you must go to when you're in town, it has not failed to impress my guests. Food is great, portions large enough to share, and the service is top notch. I hope Yao is your server; she is phenomenal!

Since I often get my hair done at the salon next door, this has always been my go to lunch spot after a long day of pampering myself. My grandmother and I went to lunch here the other day after getting our nails done. We hadn't been here in a while and it was just as delicious as we remember. Authentic and flavorful ceviche. You can't really go wrong with anything you order, it's all fantastic! My grandma and I shared a few beers, ceviche trio (three different flavors of ceviche), and a sushi roll. Highly recommend it!

If I could give it less than one Star I would. This has to be the nasties food. I ordered Corvina a la Plancha with their special White Wine and butter sauce. The Sauce was invisible. They told me that the fish absorbed it but it did not as it was dry and had no taste. A Filet-O-Fish from McDonald tastes better. So then they changed it to a Corvina Risotto. Again this one was the dry tasteless Fish and the Risotto tastes like it was made with Cheese-Wiz. I would stay away from this place! My friend also ordered something and her fish was also dry and tasteless so she put a lot of Lemon. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE

Love the place very good food and sometimes live music . I have been a couple of time and always satisfied

Roselin the manager or person in charge not sure who she was; was very rude. She made my whole experience uncomfortable and unpleasant She even asked the bartender if we had paid and we weren't even ready to leave. He was extremely nice and made sure we had a more amicable time after that

I am a huge fan of Peruvian food and this place is one of my favorite in the Miami area. Located on 8th st it's pretty hidden and hard to see at times. But this gem is home to some of the best ceviche and seafood in Miami. You must start off with the traditional drink in Peru the " pisco sour " but please don't over do it they can sneak up on you haha, when it comes to food the arroz con mariscos ( rice with seafood ) is one of my favorite plates, the seafood is fresh and rice is soft and hits all the spots. Fresh ceviche is always a must try and they also have the famous Peruvian causa I usually get the crab one ( cangrejo ). To top the meal off I finish with a cuatro leches and Sambuca for the digestion process. Highly recommended place with friendly staff and great vibe.

Great location! Beautiful neighborhood! Amazing food! Outstanding service! Interior is very authentic and unique! Julio went extra mile and he us like a high end host much more than just a person who serves you your food! Restaurant is very clean! Their plates are soo beautiful! Presentation of the food..quality..taste and the size !!!! Speechless!!! They have a bigger room for tables for 2-4 and another room which is slightly smaller and just perfect for a family event (just for one group). We are very pleased and we will be back ! Thank you !!

horrible experience! do not order food from here. this is there lomo saltado. 5 pieces of meat not vegetables no condiments nothing!! this place is complete trash paid over $100 for my order and this is what i get. do not order out from here!! dissapointing and disgusting!

This is a franchise like no other. All of their food is tasty and their restaurants are immaculate. There are a lot of dishes to pick from, so prepare yourself for a feast. Come with friends so you can order different things and share.

The server was very friendly and helpful. We had an early reservation at 630 and the place was quiet, but by the time We left at 8 it was lively. The pisco sours were goid - we tried three but still I prefer the classic with just lime. The lamb stew was excellent and it was both tender and flavorful. We split a ceviche as well which was tasty but not too complicated. The dessert was an unusual cheesecake which we like.

Manuela is the best sweetheart best service ever food is always amazing I recommend the lamb

Ordered take out and was disappointed by the amount of food being served. Overall is was tasty but I would not recommend getting take out. Sit in and enjoy the restaurant, I'm sure it'll be much better.

So I decided to try out this location they provide valet parking is five dollars and the the restaurant provides dining or outside dining I decided to eat outside The place was nice clean and the service was really excellent I have the papa a la hicuaina and I had a sour pisco drink which it was awesome and I had the ají de gallina with white rice

Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Clean bathrooms, well organized wait staff great manager with an exceptional attitude.

Tremenda atención la comida demasiado buena , buenísima todo muy bien , regresamos seguro que si , gracias a todos

my food had a piece of plastic, two people got sick after eating there and my friend's food was very pricey for a very small potion and not flavor at all. We will never go back

So hubby and I were in the mood for some ceviche and papa a la huancaina. So we decided to go to Aromas Del Peru because we love the place and its relatively close to home. One of our kids decided to join us, because she loves papa a la huancaina. Decided to go for an early (than usual) dinner. We arrived around 6 pm on. Sunday. It was the perfect timing. They have vallet parking for $5 (pretty reasonable). The host was very nice and offered outside or inside dinning. These days in Miami inside is the way to go. They provide a nice covered terrace for the outdoors overlooking 8th Street, but we preferred inside. Once settled, we were greeted and peivided with some canchas and a green creamy and slightly mild type of dip. It was delish. We ordered our starters and then the entrées. Food was excellent, we loved it all. No complaints. Noce portions, food was cooked excellent, the churrasco was juicy, tender and huge! The lomo saltado was tender and delicious taste. The dessert was good, but I feel they could have done better. I like tres leches to be drenched in that amazing blend of milks and I felt like this one was dry. But it did have a good taste! Service was quick, good and very pleasent!

Second time coming to this amazing restaurant. We loved that they are taking all the precautions for their customer to feel safe during Covid. They had chairs outside by the parking lot, the place was decorated and had fake grass which looked really good. We ordered the ceviche cholo power it mas amazing a bit spicy but had alot of fish. Also we had the lomo saltado it was a big portion the lomo was fantastic the fries were crispy which is very unusual since by the time it get to the table are soggy because of the salsa Of the lomo so i really loved that. We also ordered a suspiro which is like one of ny favorite Desserts and it was amazing. Service wise was super good, very attentive. I did notice that prices have increased a little but aside from that food was excellent.
