The Best Restaurants in Sacramento, Roseville, and Elk Grove | Eater SF

"Consider the culinary sister city potential between Lima, Peru, and Sacramento: both capital cities of the Americas that blend and champion the many cultural communities that have flocked to their borders, making them greater than the sum of their parts. How fitting that “chicha” refers to the migration of Peruvians from outside Lima into the city; it is precisely the ambitions of these newcomers “bringing their dreams, food, customs, and folklore, that a new culture emerges around Lima’s surroundings.” That appreciation brims from Chicha Peruvian Kitchen, which recently opened a second Midtown location to accompany its original Roseville spot. A trip would be incomplete without a survey of ceviches, which all feature white fish, and the chauya taypa, which honors Peru’s Chinese influence in a surf and turf stir fry." - Tamerra Griffin

Amazing food, amazing service! It was our 1st time in Roseville, we stumbled upon this place. Very cozy, quiet, and romantic place for lunch. Diego, our server was great! The owner was also very nice and offered a lot of good suggestions. We enjoyed all of our orders. I have been craving ceviche and I found this place to serve good ones. We were not asked how we wanted the steak to be cooked, came out medium well. The taste of all the dishes were not too strong. Will come back again1

Best Experience Yet – Thanks to Jacky! I’ve been here three times before, but this visit was next-level. They updated the ambiance and the menu, and it was exceptional — seriously, I need to come back and bring everyone I know! The real star of the morning was Jacky, our server. From the moment we sat down, she was so friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. She walked us through the menu, made amazing recommendations, and just had such a warm and welcoming vibe. And the food? Incredible. I’d give it 6 stars if I could. The sangria was honestly the best I’ve ever had, and the alfajores were out of this world. My friend (who was here for the first time) was blown away too — from the service to the food to the atmosphere, it was all just perfect. Such an amazing experience — I can’t wait to come back!

Excellent food with authentic peruvian flavors. Lovely restaurant, beautifully decorated with a mix modern style and a touch of peruvian objects to decorate, dinning room had tables well spaced and restrooms were clean and plenty of space for mobility challenged people. The food was outstanding, we ordered the ceviche sampler, peruvian paella and lomo saltado, all with a nice presentation and generous serving portions . Friendly staff, parking was easy, just a few steps from the door.

Jacky, our server, was very helpful with suggestions about the food. She was able to get the chef to prepare a typical Peruvian dish (tiradito) for my friend that wasn't on the menu. Everything was delicious, from the Pisco Sour, to the aji de gallina, including the fried bananas and yuca, in the picture. And the alfajores just melt in your mouth. Great place, great ambience, great food!!!

Great 👍 food which tastes delicious 😋 Nice interior design and music. They say that the restaurant has live music on selected days and an end of the month brunch buffet. 2 location. One in citrus heights and midtown Sacramento. Hope you can experience Peruvian food.

Lovely ambiance, good food, nice service. We tried many things we haven't had before. The Chicha drink is a bit sweet, and the sangria is light n yum.

This is my first time trying Peruvian food. I came here with a group of friends. We ordered different dishes, so we can share family style, and get try a variety of different items. Everything was very good. They offer a buffet on the last Sunday of the month for $45. The staff was very nice and friendly.

So disappointed with our dinner and we had such high expectations based on the reviews. We went with a group and there was one table with a small group in the restaurant beside us. There was one waitress and it appeared there was maybe one other person working. There was 7 of us so the waitress was clear that there was an automatic 20% tip for a group this size. I am fine with that and I am happy giving more than 20% but with one person, who took over 15 minutes just to get us a glass of water. Additionally the waitress didn't get my wife's dinner order. She order an appetizer and a main meal. When dinner was served, she didn't have my wife's order. The language was clearly an issue as we tried to ask about the menu. We were not experts on Peruvian food. I'll give it up to maybe a language issue but not an apology or any concession. Food, was just ok. I ordered the Bistek Lo lobre, which is Steak, fried onions, eggs, potatoes and plantains. The French fries were cold, the Steak, was tough, grisly, and really no flavor and the plantains were not great. I am just not getting it! Service was horrible, food was mediocre at best and the entitled attitude for a tip when they were way understaffed, it is why I gave 2 stars. Too many other great options. Sad because I wanted it to be great.

Came in on a Sunday with reservations for a quick bite and drinks as we killed time. Friendly staff and they were quick to get our orders. The maracuya is amazing, both the virgin and alcoholic option ! Would have this over and over, the michelada was okay. Great portions on the ceviche, but wish they offered yuca chips or some other chips to go with it. We also had some yuca fries and empanadas which were great and good portions. The ambiance is great for both casual or more intimate style. Pricing matched the portions and quality of the food. Would come back again to try more options.

My first time having Peruvian food. I had no expectations and was simply looking forward to trying something new with my friends. There are two locations, Sacramento and Roseville. We visited the Roseville location for lunch. My first impression of the decor is very festive and colorful with Peruvian vibe. Maracua sour is a fruity twist on the Peruvian favorite pisco sour. The fragrant passion fruit made this drink a combination of fruity, sweet-tart, refreshing drink. 4/5 Trio Cevichero It's a sampler of 3 type of fish. They all kind of taste similar to me. I recommend ordering the taro chips. It balance out the mild fishiness. 3/5 Yucas & Platanos Fritos I like anything fried. I totally enjoyed this dish. The fried cassava sticks and fried sweet plantains dipped in the sweet creamy sauce was very good. 5/5 Pollo Saltado It's a Peruvian favorite! Wok stir-fried chicken with onions, tomatoes, soy sauce, french fries, jasmine rice and fried egg. I liked all the ingredients in this dish. The chicken was a bit chewy and way too much onions. 4/5 They also have a buffet on the last Sunday of each month but November is the last one of the year. It's a nice spread for $45 per person. I just don't eat that much to take advantage, at least not $45 worth. Friendly service. Our waitress was great at explaining the menu and attentive.

I was on the way to Tahoe for holidays and wanted to stop by for a bite to eat and a group of my friends suggested Peruvian food. Tried to research and this restaurant seems promising. When we got there , late afternoon and looked pretty slow only one big table. The server came out to greet us and show us the table. She is really nice and take good care of us. The food that we got were the ceviche, shrimp soup Fettuccini stir fried beef and bisteak. All the food were amazing , I wasn't expecting anything and everything was good. Especially, the ceviche was my favorite, the flavor was sour not too spicy. The seafood was fresh. All the beef was tender. I really recommend this place if you're ever in the area.

I have been meaning to write this review for so long. We set up a lunch with a friend and chanced upon their last Sunday of the month buffets. We lucked out and got seats, but you need to reserve in advance. Other Sunday lunches are regular sit down meals. I felt especially fortunate because we hadn't tried Peruvian food before and this buffet style gave us an opportunity to try many dishes at once. This was a great fun meal, all dishes were absolutely delicious. Like many places in the burbs of Sacramento, not much to see on the outside, but lively and flavorful food on the inside. I am thinking about when we can go again. Also they will be opening a 2nd restaurant in the downtown area. So I look forward to trying that!

Our second meal here. Another Sunday dinner for us. This time, there weren't that many customers. We got seated near the bar. For drinks, we got the Chicha Morada (purple corn) and Pisco Sour. Both were refreshing for drinks that we've tried for the first time. For main dishes, our son chose the Bistec a lo Pobre (10 oz NY steak) with fries, fried sweet plantains, fried egg and fresh tomatoes. My wife opted for the Lomo Saltado a la Antigua, stir-fried tenderloin with onions, tomatoes and fried egg served on a bed of fries and rice. I got the Chupe de Camarones (Peruvian shrimp chowder) with aji pepper, quinoa and fried egg. Now, the obvious commonality with our picks for dinner is the fried egg. Maybe unusual for dinner but no complaints from this family. Desserts were son's and wife's preferences. Churro & Caramel Sticks and House Peruvian Bread Pudding to end our dinner. Our server was nice and helpful. He gave us two servings of the house bread with garlic butter. Full bellies out the door. Planning on returning for Happy Hour (Monday to Friday 3-6).

Not only was the food amazing and flavorful the service was TOP notch. Some of the best service I have ever gotten. Our server was amazing giving us the best recommendations and just overall had the best energy. They even made my grandma feel so special on her birthday. The food was so good we were all swapping plates to get a bite! My personal favorite was the fettuccine. The restaurant is tucked away in a shopping center, but don't overlook it!

This colorful Peruvian place is in a strip mall with plenty of free parking. It decorated with many colorful paintings and has Spanish music playing as you walk in. We came on a rainy afternoon and had the place to ourselves at opening. The service was attentive and personal. We came here as we were craving Lomo Saltado and this did not disappoint! The savory sauce with the beef, tomatoes, onions and French fries satisfied the craving. We also tried a new to me fish dish called pescado a lo no macho which was a tender light fried fish covered in a delicate seafood sauce. This dish is best eaten immediately and not as a take out as the fish will get soggy. We will return.

Unassuming from the outside in a strip mall, but cute place on the inside. Had dinner here the day after Mother's day weekend so it was still full of balloons and decorations celebrating mom. They also had causa available which isn't on the menu b/c it was available for Mother's day. I'm glad I asked!! Brought my Serbian colleague here - her first time in California and her first time eating Peruvian food. She thoroughly enjoyed the Chicha and her pollo saltado! I had the Chupe de camarones and it was warm, delicious and cozy! Don't find myself in this area often, but would definitely recommend and revisit.

Incredible food and service. Very cute place with great ambiance. This was our first time here and we're adding it to our regular spots. Tried the ceviche sampler. So good! The stew sampler was the perfect amount for 2-3 people to share. Highly recommend the pork belly appetizer. It is one of the best things I've ever had. Incredible flavors and presentation. The maracuya sour was great. Perfect amount of sweet and sour.

This is my GO TO restaurant when I am in the area. Great Peruvian restaurant. Flavor is very good, menu is somehow limited but the dishes I've tried were good. Pricing is no cheap though. Couldn't it be better ? Yes. Does it taste just like food in Peru? No, but it is still very good. That is the reason I am only giving 4 stars . Service is good and ambiance is ok.

We dined last night for Valentine's day and thankfully had an early reservation. The place is super cute and they did a great job of decorating modestly for Valentine's. I liked how they had balloons tied to the bottles of Malbec at specific tables. While I didn't ask specifically, I think it was their way of noting which tables were reserved. After being shown to our table and seated, we perused the menu and were excited to try some new dishes.... ...(5 minutes - nada) ...(5 more minutes - nada) ......(5 more minutes - nada) At one point, someone dropped off two hard biscuits and left. We weren't even offered water, yet. We waited and noticed a couple seated well after us was already placing their order and had water. At this point, I was about to get up and pour ourselves some water, instead, I flagged a server down and asked for some water. The server looked frantic but thankfully got us water, but immediately left. This is the point, where the sever should have said something like "sorry for the delay, your server will with you shortly". The person who I asked for water wasn't assigned to our table. It is Valentine's day and I get it, it is busy and they are doing their best. So we wait...ever so patiently. We never once complained. We waited. After waiting some more, the server assigned to us showed up and apologized for being busy. They asked if we wanted to start with drinks, we said that we would also order as well. We placed our appetizer and dinner order along with two pisco sours. Once our order was placed, the food came out in a timely fashion. However, our drinks somehow did not make it. We figured they'd be out shortly, after about halfway through our meal our server came to check on us and we reminded them about the drinks. We could have been on our second round of drinks if they were delivered on time, alas we only had one round and ended up boxing up the rest to take home. I still give them 4 stars because the food was that good and I liked the setting. Now if they can improve on their service this place will be a great spot to visit regularly.

Fantastic service and delicious, elevated Peruvian food! Everything is prepared to order so it's easy for them to work around food allergies and adjust spice levels. Gluten Free and vegetarian options are clearly marked on the menu. If you are clean and sober: ask them to remove any alcohol from the table before you are seated so it doesn't trigger you.

When we first moved out to the Sacramento area, this was our place for Peruvian food. Since they have opened their new location in Midtown, it makes me sad to say that this location has dropped down in food quality. The service was excellent, the ambiance was "peruvian" and their waiters are very attentive. But unfortunately, the food is no longer as good as it used to be, the Peruvian drink chicha you can tell is not made fresh - but maybe more of the powder mix? I am Peruvian and I can surely say that that is not freshly made chicha. That or they need to change up the recipe for it. Aside from the food quality dropping, it's definitely gotten more expensive since they've opened the new location. Sad to say that due to the price, and just the overall food quality, my family and I have decided not to return unfortunately.

Wow so disappointed maybe they had a different cook or staff then when my father went but I came here for the lomo Saltado the waiter told me excellent choice and claimed they had the best ... when it got to me it was extremely dry! Literally no juice at all none ! The meat was so dry I came here after trying la huaca on Douglas blvd because I was told they had better lomo saltado... hell no not even close la huaca is so much better no debate la huaca is very juicy especially if you do the buffet you can put as much juice as you want on it and all you can eat for the same price as one dry dish from Chicha hopefully in the future they can put some juice with the rice and meat and not serve this disrespectfully dry dish ! Horrible a whole hour of work wasted not to mention the $12 tip I left ... besides the terribly dry dish the service was decent but the personality of the staff was great they were all kind and charismatic even tho I was lied to and told the lomo saltado was the best . Please don't serve it so dry in the future and put some juice I mean not even a drip of juice NONE not a drop I can't believe how dry it was ... did I mention the fact that the dish was dry? My goodness

BEST Peruvian food hidden in a strip mall next to a karate place. The food!! The food!!!! The food was so good, let me start with the dessert. Peruvian flan is wayyyyyy better than the Filipino or Mexican version. I said what I said!!! Get the Flan! It was incredibly thick in size. I want to say it was cooked in a Bundt pan due to the height. The flan was silky, creamy, sweet, but not too sweet. And they added chocolate and white chocolate dabs on top of the flan. I didn't think it would go, but boy it did!!!! Both chocolate dabs complimented the flan soo incredibly well. Make room for the flan! The dinner items we orders: 1. Lomo Saltado - This kid doesn't order from the kid menu bc he has an appetite. An appetite so big that he polished off all the steak pieces on this dish. Super flavorful meat. Loved how much onions were in this dish as well. 2. Pescado A Lo Macho - the hubs ordered this dish. I definitely had my fork all up in his plate. It surprising tasted kind of Italian as the sauce was creamy. Loved all the flavors 3. Peruvian Style Paella - So so good!! The amount of seafood in this dish is worth it. They definitely did not skimp out on the seafood. Huge chunks of octopus and squid, fish, shrimp , and clams. I can't wait to eat here again!!!

Food was phenomenal and our server was amazing!!!

I'm in the area quite a bit for work and would definitely suggest this for lunches more often.

We really loved it! It's not a fancy restaurant, but it doesn't need to be. It was clean, modern, the music was not too loud, the hosts spoke perfect English - clearly and understood what we were asking. It seemed family operated and a definite sense of pride in their work. The questions we asked our server about wine, food, flavors, spice, heat were answered spot on! In comparison to the other Peruvian Restaurants in the greater Sacramento area, this one was AMAZING! If you'd like to experience good authentic Peruvian food, this is the place. Prior to ordering, we read the menu and watched as plates were delivered from the kitchen to tables. To start we ordered the ceviche, and the steak skewers, followed by paella. All the while enjoying homemade Peruvian Sangria! Very Nice, I will be back!

Meeting a friend for dinner, she decided on trying Peruvian food. It was only my second time having Peruvian food so we let the waiter make recommendations and everything we tried was absolutely delicious. I wish I could remember all of the names, but we split an appetizer that was a cold potato dish with a cream sauce, a main dish that had thinly sliced steak and some fried yucca potatoes. All in all, everything was very delicious and I appreciated the explanation of each dish by our waiter. The service was fast and friendly, and the interior decor was warm and inviting. If you have never experienced Peruvian food before, I would highly recommend giving this place a try.

First time here, was a Saturday evening, Wow! Greeted by a beautiful singing Voice. There's a talented solo vocalist here on Saturdays apparently. Every Saturday evening. I will absolutely come here on a Saturday next time. It was such a treat! So then the appetizers came and I was even more delighted. Yay! Beautiful tender Beef Heart in light pesto with these crazy good potatoes, and I don't even eat potatoes usually. This place will be My Exception! Super yummy. Creamy and flavorful potatoes with beef heart. I could eat this every darn day. The white fish ceviche was so tangy citrus and refreshing. Lots of beautiful onions and nothing was overwhelming, just beautiful and fresh. Then comes a clean feeling beef stew with rice and a seafood paella. Also yummy. I feel the Paella is poorly named and should be readdressed as a Seafood Risotto. It's not like a flavorful Spanish paella, but more of a mellow creamy risotto. Very nice texture. The appetizers were so filling. We had to take most of the entrees home. Oh, did I mention the garlicky herb butter they serve with the house bread rolls. Too good! Salty Herby butter and tastes like a soft pillow of potato bread roll. Mmmmm.

We went there for the 1st time with a big group on a Sunday (buffet style). The food is great until I got a hair in the beet salad. after that I just couldn't eat. I have a video, but I can't upload it for some reason. So, I took a screenshot from the video.

My husband talked about how good their food was on a stop to Reno. Found out they have a buffet every last Sunday of the month and made the hour and a half trip today. Soooooo worth it! Loved the variety of the buffet with ceviches, quinoa and beet salad, chupe, aji de gallina, seco, lomo saltado plus more. They also have Peruvian desserts and fresh fruit. When the waitress came over she asked if there's anything we need and I replied "another stomach please so I can eat more" Words can't do justice how good the food was. They do change the dishes in the buffet every month so we will definitely be back!!!

I realllly wanted to like this place but man, it was just bad all around. There were two other people in the entire place on a Monday night and it took 40 minutes for us to get our entrees. The fettuccine... awful. And all the meat tasted like it was lathered in cumin and no other seasoning. Giving it two stars because the churro dessert was good.

Family told us to try this out. Small place in a strip mall, inside is clean and inviting. Staff was friendly. We had a ceviche appetizer that had fish and calamari. It was excellent, but very pricey at $25.99. Ingredients were very fresh and nicely balanced, it really made the taste buds dance around! We tried two dishes, one was a noodle dish with beef I don't recall the names of either dish, but it was excellent. The other one was a rice dish with beef and different veggies. I dropped a star because of the high end pricing for the the portions you get. It was very good tasting, it just cost more than what we want to spend on a date night dinner. For two entrees and one appetizer and waters to drink, it was still over $80, add $15 tip and that's an expensive date night.

Excellent food. Homey environment. Professional staff. It's a different experience than the competition nearby La Huaca. Chicha is more like a family atmosphere like going to Olive Garden, casual and relaxed. La Huaca is more on the high end more formal. Both restaurants offered Peruvian cuisines that complement each other. Depends on your mood. A more casual relaxed atmosphere, Chicha is better. A more reserved formal environment then La Huaca.

The food is great, with excellent customer service! The ambiance is quite nice, and fun. The music is not too loud, and the atmosphere is light. Highly recommended the Beef Loma Saltado! Pictured! Beef tenderloin! Tender and delicious! The White fish Ceviche is a great place to start! Enjoy!

11/20/22 My oldest son and I were craving some Peruvian food and found this spot on Yelp. Thank you fellow yelpers for helping us! Location was very colorful in decor both outside and inside. For today's visit, I ordered the Lomo Saltado A La Antigua and my son ordered the pork tamale. The Pork Tamale came out with pickled onions on top and had olives inside. It came out more wet vs dry with the pickled toppings. $8.95 for 1 pork tamale. My son wasn't a fan of the pork tamale and ended up sharing my Lomo Saltado A La Antigua which was seasoned well. I was hoping there was more fries and that it was a bit more crispy but overall it was a good dish. $25.95 for rice, seasoned beef with onions, tomatoes, soy sauce and topped with a fried egg. There wasn't a lot of beef or fries. There was lots of red onions. The dishes IMO were on the pricer side for both brunch and dinner options. While I was checking out Yelp, I noticed many reviews mentioned all you can eat buffets. When I inquired about it with our server, I understood they have these on the last Sunday of every month from Jan-Sept and require advance reservations as it gets extremely busy. What a great concept! I would definitely be back to check that out in 2023 so I can different dishes offered. Bel Air shopping plaza Location has ample parking and this location is at the corner end of the plaza.

On Sunday, September 25, 2022, I attended the 2nd seating, 2 PM - 4 PM, for the last buffet of the year. Advance reservations were required. Buffet cost was $34.95 per adult and $14.95 per child. The restaurant needed time to transition from the 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM 1st seating, so we waited outside in line with the restaurant's front doors closed until maybe 2:15 PM or 2:20 PM, assuming I remembered correctly. We were checked in one party at a time. So many people, primarily Latin Americans, attended! I think I and perhaps one table of Filipinos were the only non-Latin buffet guests. That's how you can tell the food is authentic and special. There was one other table of two non-Latin customers, but they weren't there for the buffet. All the buffet dishes were labeled in Spanish. That was a lot of work for me to translate, compare against the regular menu, and ask the waitress about! The buffet offered more dishes than I could try! If you really want to try everything, you can only have one small tasting of each. There is no stomach space for second helpings of your favorite dishes. I took so long to finish my second plate that most of the dessert bites were gone by the time I waddled up there. Restaurant was super wise to portion the desserts into small squares and serve them in condiment cups, which enabled customers to sample more desserts. I was so full that I couldn't even finish my 2nd plate or my 3rd dessert bite. LEGEND X Customer Favorite (dishes that ran out or low) O My Favorite APPETIZERS * Assorted Rolls and Pastries in a Basket X * Fresh Salad (Ensenada Fresca) * Huancayo style potatoes (Papa a la Huancaina) * Ocopa sauce potatoes with hard-boiled eggs and olives (Ocopa) * Russian Beet Salad (Ensenada Russa) * Seafood Ceviche (Ceviche con Mariscos) X * Fish Ceviche (Ceviche de Pescado) O * Chicken Chowder (Chupe de Pollo) O SIDES * Garbanzo Beans and Pork Fried Rice (Arroz con Garbanzos y Cerdo) O * Beans (Frijoles) ENTREES * Chicken with Aji Amarillo sauce (Aji de Gallina) O * Beef Stew (Seco de Res) O * Pineapple Pork (Chancho con Piña) * Fish with Seafood Sauce (Pescado con Salsa de Mariscos) X * Stir-fried Beef Tenderloin with French Fries (Lomo Saltado) X * Mushroom Pesto (Pesto con Hongos) * Chicken with Peanuts (Pollo con Mani) O DESSERTS * Rice pudding (Arroz con Leche) * Churros * Chocolate cake * Watermelon * Flan? * Cheesecake? * Tiramisu? * Too many others that I couldn't examine, try, or identify!!! My tendency was to prefer the saucy meat entrees eaten over rice. The other customers loved the seafood and steak dishes. Other than water, beverages weren't included with the buffet, so I ordered a Chicha Morada, a sweet Peruvian punch made of purple corn, passion fruit, lime juice, and house bubbles. It is a pretty fuschia color. Because I was a solo diner, I started my meal at an outside table for 2. After other customers finished dining and left, I was moved inside to be closer to the buffet tables and for AC. The buffet food warmers were beautiful, festive, and cultural. Buffet was overkill for me, so I'm better off with a lunch or dinner plate, but it was a great way to preview the culinary skills and menu of Chicha. Here are some other noteworthy offerings: * Peruvian breakfast is offered Saturdays and Sundays from 9 AM to 12 PM. * 20% discount on all Ceviches every Tuesday (5 different ceviches!) * 20% discount on all Wine Bottles every Wednesday * Lunch Specials run Monday to Friday, 11 AM to 3 PM. $13.95 for entree or $18.95 with an appetizer. * Happy Hour runs Monday to Friday, 4 PM to 6 PM, 7 plates ranging $6-$10. * $24.95 Seafood Duos are available Monday to Friday, 11 AM to 5 PM. A Seafood Duo is Tiger's Milk seafood cocktail (Leche de Tigre) with your choice of Seafood Fried Rice (Arroz con Mariscos) or Fried Seafood (Jalea). For 2022, Chicha is doing a $360 Thanksgiving special that feeds 8-10 people. Orders will be taken until Monday, November 21. * Whole turkey with gravy (15 to 17 pounds) * Fresh salad with red fruit dressing * Mashed potatoes with garlic * Roasted vegetables * Green beans with bacon and almonds * Hot sauce Someday I would be interested in trying the Chaufa Aeropuerto Taypá, which is fried rice with chicken, shrimp, and vegetables wrapped inside a thin omelette. The Chupe de Camarones or Shrimp Chowder also catches my eye from the restaurant's Facebook page. Thank you for your authentic fun menu offerings, Chicha!

This is such a top notch Peruvian restaurant. Loved their leche de tigre appetxier and the pescado a lo macho. The leche de tigre was a great combination of seafood and citrus. Wow! The flavor packs a punch. Then I got the seafood dish. This came with a lovely array of seafood. Loved the spicy flavor and the delicious and flavorful broth. The rice soaks up the sauce. So so good. I enjoyed these two dishes and there are so many to choose from. Great place!

In the past month they changed their menu. We did not realize they changed their menu until we visited for dinner recently. My favorite salmon dish is no more, but I tried the alternative salmon option. Salmon was cooked well, there was a flavorful sauce but it was too salty. My friends each ordered a chicken dish and found them both to be overstated as well. One of the chicken dishes didn't even have seasoning on their chicken. The service was friendly, but a little slow.

First visit, lovely ambiance, amazing sauces, delicious food, great service, interesting drinks, superb presentation. Loved it all!!! Side note: There's lovely music, but soft, so conversation is priority. And the one TV was off! Yay! Lastly, save room for the churros dessert...heaven!

Excellent experience for our first visit. More visits to come! Ceviche flavors were on point and the Jalea was perfectly cooked. The service was top notch, staff was kind, friendly and bilingual.

I went to lunch today at the sunrise one, and before that in another day I went to the downtown one. in both I had the same problem, very bad treatment, very bad attitude. they a picture on here warm bread and butter, that's bull. the bread at one point, stale and hard, then when I asked for more bread, she gave me one from the freezer, at another point, microwaved and hard. the butter, came out from the freezer. and the waitress for today at the Roseville one, was very unhappy with me. my coke had no ice in it, and warm. the restaurant "at lunch hour" had only two customers "a couple" and they appeared to have the same problem as I did. if you guys "the owners or the waitresses" don't want customers to come in, why do you open a restaurant? why work there? do you expect us to kiss your axx for serving us? we pay your wages, we pay for your mortgages, we pay to keep you guys floating. please adjust your attitude. the food was really good "ceviche" , but the service in both locations sucked big time.

Stop by this Peruvian restaurant on the way to Reno, this place definitely hit the spot if you looking for some Peruvian food. The trio ceviche was delicious and my husband had the tamal and it was very delicious with the aji. Also the lomo saltado was full of favor and juicy. Definitely will come back if I'm in the area.

I really enjoyed this meal. I've never had ceviche before, wasn't sure what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised. I loved the intense lime flavor coupled with the spicy peppers. The rest of the menu looks amazing too. Definitely try out this little hole in the wall. The service is great, very speedy and friendly. The bread intro with garlic butter is delicious. Ceviche was not too filling and I had room for dessert. I got the bread pudding which was good although a little too sweet (that's just me though). I'd go back here anytime.

Gonna be honest up front, It is quite expensive for the service we got! Want to start with how long everything took for us to order, get to our table and even for check I had to go up front because we asked for check and nothing came by for 15 minutes. They were not that busy either it was mid-day Saturday. Restaurant is cute but not very authentic if you are looking for that. I have three stars for the food, food was delicious but service and prices were terrible!

AMAZING FOOD!!! My friend recommended this restaurant and it did not disappoint! I went to Peru last year and was so excited to try Peruvian food again- it was so authentic and fresh! I have a gluten allergy (along with some other food allergies) and the staff were very knowledgeable. Many items on the main menu are marked gluten free. I had a delicious meal and did not get sick. HIGHLY RECOMMEND !

The good: Peruvian food is easily one of my favorite cuisines (top 3 for sure). It is always a pleasant surprise to find a Peruvian place in a very unassuming location. The exterior and plaza might make you think that this place wont have a great date night or special occasion atmosphere but the inside is moody, cute and transports you! There's some fun wall art, a curtain made of fuzzy ball garlands, intricate tile, and some fake plants on the ceiling. They also have some small outdoor seating spots. I had the chicha morada, passion fruit cheesecake, bread pudding, 2 of the fish dishes and a ceviche. The ceviche was fresh and delicious. The fish entrees were perfect. I love the interesting flavors and the balance of acid and salt. Making reservations in advance was easy online. The bad: The desserts were just ok. The interesting: This was the first chicha morada drink I had that didn't taste cinnamony. It was heavier on the pineapple juice side. The dessert are on display in a case.

Loved it, will be coming back! We did the empanada duo which was fantastic, but the real star was the ceviche. So healthy but flavorful. Our server Diego was attentive and suave. I'm impressed by the entire bilingual staff. Next time I'll practice a little espanol .

Best beef hearts I've ever tasted. Usually they take too rich and like minerals. Fantastic texture, seasoning, and test. The chicken thighs were juicy and perfectly cooked. The fish was excellent. I'm usually not a sauce person but the two sauces, one with the potatoes and beef hearts, and the one with the yucca fries and the chicken thighs were simply delicious. Even the passion fruit mimosa was fantastic. The service was super welcoming and friendly. The ambiance was so authentic and beautiful. I was mesmerized by the art and the decor.
