Inti Peruvian Restaurant

One of the best Peruvian spots in the Hollywood/Los Angeles area. They serve bread upon arrival a huge plus. Plates are a good portion size and moderately priced. There is some confusion if they provide combinations plates as it is mentioned on their IG posts. Overall very kid friendly, clean and delicious. 10/10!

Located in a corner stripmall unit tucked away from the street. This comfortable Peruvian Restaurant is unassuming for the flavors they put out! Place was crowded for a Sunday lunch. The starting bread serving was fresh and tasty. The green salsa that they serve with it is flavorful and spicy. I had the Mar y Tierra (Saltado), Essentially Shrimp and Beef. I found it seasoned well and was very tasty. My wife had the Seafood and Beef Saltado. It was also tasty. I appreciated the server brought me another glass of water without my asking. Very attentive. Overall, a great experience. Now that we know, we will be back.

My favorite Peruvian in Los Angeles. I like big portions and amazing flavor

Our whole experience there was not what we expected according to the so great comments about this place. The music in the restaurant was extremely loud. Two radios were being played at the same time which made the environment unpleasant and stressful. The food was extremely salty. Rice didn’t taste fresh but tasted super salty and greasy. We ordered two different saltados and the ratio between the proteins, french fries and tomatoes were unfair. Fries were overcooked. We didn’t taste the saltado flavor at all. The service was horrible with the oldest waitress. She took our plates while we were still eating and tried to kick us off the restaurant as soon as we were done eating.

Great little spot for an authentic Peruvian meal. Fresh homemade Chicha and Maracuya drinks and decent size portions. Come here for a delicious meal and nice atmosphere.

This restaurant is incredible. The Lomo Saltado here is really good. It is among the best I’ve ever had. The lomo is soft and well cooked. The sauce is exceptional. The Papas a la Huancaina are not bad. You get a bread basket. Service is good. They have an adjacent parking lot that fills up quick.

I went there on a couple occasions, the food was good, fresh and it has a very similar flavor to the original food in Peru. The service is good and it's gotten faster. Usually I order Jalea de mariscos or ceviche de mixto they have a unique flavor and I highly recommend those plates, the prices are moderate. The only downside on my last visit, is I noticed that the fish is over cooked in the ceviche or they started to use frozen fish. The ceviche changes a lot in the freshness (fyi).

I will definitely come back to visit this restaurant! I tried the Olluco con Apollo for the first time in over 10 years, and it was one of the best I’ve had—it reminded me of how my mom and grandma used to cook it for us. The flavors brought back so many memories. The staff here is wonderful—friendly, welcoming, and always smiling, which makes the atmosphere even better. I truly love this Peruvian restaurant, and now I know that every time I come to LA, this is where I’ll get my Peruvian food. Highly recommended!

The service was great and the food delicious. The arroz chaufa de calamares is biblical, and so is the lomo saltado. Can't wait to be back.

Solid Mom n Pop Peruvian restaurant on Melrose! The portions here were pretty big. Here are some of the dishes my friend and I shared: - Lomo Salatado: This was good, the beef was cooked well, and I enjoyed the flavor. I've had better Lomo saltado elsewhere though. - Tallarin Verde con Bisteck Frito: The pesto pasta was creamy, had good pesto flavor, and the noodles were cooked decently. However, I was a bit disappointed with the steak which was tough and didn't really give that "fried" feel. - Jalea de Pescado con Mariscos: Favorite dish of the night. I liked the variety of all the fried seafood and yucca. The fried shrimp was good and it was even enjoyable to eat the tail. I especially loved the fish which was flavorful and maintained its moistness despite being fried. Topped with fresh onions and crunchy bits, it was a great combo. The staff here were also really nice! There's limited parking in the plaza, but there's some neighborhood street parking nearby.

Uber eats order I've been to inti (in person) years ago and I remember enjoying it and from time to time I have a strong craving for lomo saltado. I saw that they were part of uber eats so I decided to place an order for dinner. The food traveled quite well. Everything was tasty. I asked for them to include extra green hot sauce (aji verde) - I always ask this because sometimes places forget to include the sauces on delivery orders. I was surprised to see that they adjusted the pricing for an additional $1.50 which was fine but in the restaurant itself, they leave a bottle and you can use as much as you want for free. Not a big deal but thought I'd point it out as I've never had a price adjustment like this before. But overall a great delivery option. The flavor was good. The food arrived hot (I chose priority delivery). A great option for peruvian food.

My wife and I ordered Inti through Uber Eats one night when we were too lazy to cook or go out. Sometimes the food comes, and is soggy and gross. But the Lomo Saltado we ordered here was delicious and their green sauce has a delicious flavor and very nice spice to it. Really good and we want to try some other dishes there next time! If you like Lomo Saltado, I highly recommend this place!!

I came here years ago and remember it was delicious! Fast forward probably 10 years and many different Peruvian restaurants later, I came back today while I was in town and my mind was blown!!! Tastes so authentic and so flavorful! I love it when you remember a restaurant being good and when you try it again it's even better than what you remembered. Don't want to go to any other Peruvian restaurant besides this one. Unfortunately I live in San Bernardino now but I'm already try to find a way back to LA eat here again! Also my two year old loved the tallarín noodle plate! And the Lucuma ice cream is a musttttttt ! Besides the Lomo Salado of coarse. They give big portions as well! Our servers were so amazing!! They were so lovely to my daughter.

I used to dine here twice a week for a few years until my job took me out of the area. It's been at least 10 years since I have been back and happy to see that they survived the many struggles. The food is just as good as I remembered it and the portions are still pretty big. My favorite thing they have here is the aji verde sauce that they give you with bread and you can use it on your entree. The sauce is very flavorful but not as spicy as I remember it. It was pretty busy most with take out orders and that did cause a bit of slow service but was understandable. It's located on a busy street in a small strip mall and it's fairly well kept up, bright and can get a little loud but nothing to complain about.

This is a very Mom and Pop vibe Peruvian not your super dressed up but the food here is beyond delicious!! Came here on a whim and absolutely loved it ! I am definitely a lover of Peruvian food specifically Peruvian ceviche, and this location ticked all my boxes! The portions here are very big and the service was very fast and efficient ! Our server took our orders and everything came out hot fresh and tasty! We have the ceviche mixto as our starter, and the portions were a perfect sharing size for everyone at our table! Usually locations are pretty skimpy on this part so I can appreciate this locations portions! Everything was flavorful and in the area I will definitely be giving them a visit again !

I was a die hard fan of the other local peruvian spot for 20+ years and now I regret not giving this place a chance. Above all the service is amazing but the food- fresh and delicious. One of the few places I won't DoorDash because it's that much better in person.

A complete hole in the wall but one you need to find yourself at. Excuse how poorly I took pictures but know that the food here is insanely delicious. I got their fish saltado which is tender chunks of friend fish in a sauce I wish I could bathe in loaded with fries and onions. My mouth is watering just remembering it. We also got their ceviche which was incredibly fresh and perfectly served with onions and boiled potatoes.

The most authentic Peruvian food, amazing big portions and great service. The only regret is that's it's too good that gets crowed all the time

Came here on a whim and will absolutely be back! Place is a little small but well spaced with tables and clean. Our server was so friendly, quick, and helpful with the few questions we had. The food was delightful! My husband got the Lomo Saltado. Although I'm not a big beef eater, this might have been one of the best beef dishes I've ever had. It was seasoned to perfection (a hair salty, but I like it like that) and the gravy that it was sitting in made both of us clean the plate with the bread that's given at the start. That bread came warm and crusty. I got the Pescado Saltado, also generously seasoned. The smaller bits of fish were a bit overcooked but the taste of everything made it completely worth it. Regrettably, it didn't have as much mouth-watering gravy as was with the beef but I just stole from my husbands plate. Both drinks were fantastic. TheChica Morada had a good bit of cinnamon (?) so it was a delicious mixture of spiced and sweet. The Maracuya was refreshing! I saw the menu offered a vegetarian Saltado and I can't wait to go back to try!

Inti Peruvian Restaurant is a little hidden gem. You may call it a hole in the wall type of place if you want and the restaurant's quaint and family feel might direct you to such thoughts; it's totally homey with no pretentious feeling of any sort and with a very basic look and feel. It's tucked away in the corner of a strip mall type of place. Parking is limited. The service was nice and friendly. My friend spoke Spanish though to the service staff and was commenting about things I would say to make them happy and show that I was pleased. We ordered several things as a party of three and all were really excellent. The portions are very good. Bread was served with a spicy green sauce. The green sauce is great! Ceviche Mixto - Ceviche with calamari, shrimp, octopus, and fish. Served with a potato, sweet potato and cancha (large-kerneled corn). A very generous portion and all tasted fresh. Lomo Saltado Strips of beef sauteed with onions, tomatoes, and french fries. Served with white rice. I've been waiting to try the infamous lomo saltado dishes of Peruvian cuisine and their version here did not disappoint. Everything was seasoned well. The meat was tender, fries cooked well, and the sauce was so amazing. The rice was nicely made as well. I can eat this every day and be happy. Tallarin Saltado De Carne - Strips of beef and pasta satueed with green onions and tomatoes. Friend's kid had this and enjoyed. Calamares Fritos - Good portion and golden brown. Friend's daughter devoured this. Inca Kola - A Peruvian soft drink. Slight sweet taste. Reminded me of Mountain Dew. Maracuya - Refreshing passion fruit drink

I needed to get a Father's Day dinner, so I headed over to Mario's Peruvian. However, I realized they didn't have any parking, so I ended up at this location. It had been years since I had been there, but they proved me wrong. I ordered the lomo saltado and the siete mares soup. The meat was tender, and everyone in my family enjoyed the soup. The only mishap they ran out of bread, go support

Good food. Large portions and good service! Authentic dishes. Ceviche and lomo saltado are excellent.

Very authentic Peruvian food. I am Peruvian and felt at home. Very homie. Will be back and back and back

This is as good as Mario's, it's different but still tasty in its own way. Prices aren't bad, small little restaurant with good service. I would recommend them

One of the best Peruvian food I ever ate, really good service, and really clean and nice ambiance. Thank you for your hospitality.

Pretty expensive for a lunch but good food. The 'spicy' green sauce made the meal stand out so would recommend it on their dishes. Wasn't really spicy but was flavorful.

This place is soooo good and way better than Marios! The best fish ceviche we have had. No fishy ness and pure deliciousness. Highly recommend. Lomo Saltado is also delicious but need to tell them not to overcook the meat. One of our fav peruvian restaurants and we highly recommend!

The service is great, the place is clean, and the food is delicious! If you're down to treat yourself, get the Lomo Saltado with fried rice! It's so delicious! You won't regret it!

La comida de aquí es muy rica sus meseras/os son súper amigables este es unos de mis lugares favoritos

This restaurant is small, quaint, not at all pretty but the food is delicious therefore its homey, robust, and special. The Lomo Saltado is simply delicious. I also ordered a chicha morada which was really good. It's such a rare thing to go to a place and enjoy the food 100% but thats what happened. The service was great as well. If I could give one note it would be to select a different bread to serve. Something fresher but other than that I really loved the place. I look forward to coming back!

All I need to say about Inti is that when I fly back to LA this place is a MUST STOP. Chaufa and ceviche, every time. They make my favorite Peruvian green sauce, of any I have tried...and their ceviche has me ruined for any other. Tiny spot, literally in a tiny parking lot, in a corner. You know in LA that the BEST places look like a little hole in the wall. Inti stands on perfection. The staff are happy and friendly, always. If you have never tried Peruvian-style ceviche, why not? You will never do ceviche any other way once you try Inti's!

Only the second Peruvian restaurant that I've been to, but omg it was so good. The food was beyond expectations! Lomo Saltado: very well-seasoned meat and fries. Our favorite! Sopa a la criolla: warm soup that is a little milky - goes really well with the Lomo Saltado. Second favorite! Papa à la Huancana: Potatoes in really good sauce. Not bad at all.

Family restaurant, best lomo saltado I've had outside my own kitchen. Finally a Peruvian restaurant that gets it right! Chicha was so delish as well. It's purple corn drink, don't knock it til you've tried it here. So good. We got a second lomo, yeah it was that good. Service was good, they brought bread and will bring more, just ask. Clean bathroom. Wish Peruvian food was this great in Oceanside

Last month, I went to LA to visit my best friend, and we both quickly agreed this was the best Peruvian we'd ever had (she's been in LA for 4 years, and I've been in the NYC area for 3 years so we've both had a good bit of Peruvian). Local or visitor, you MUST stop at Inti!! We shared the Saltado (the pescado one I believe) and the friend rice with everything. The reviews weren't lying; the Saltado was amazing. That fried rice though, to die for!! We inhaled it, and a month later I still cannot stop thinking about it. So well cooked, the seasonings were perfect! The ladies working were so kind as well, such an awesome little hole in the wall! When I return to LA, the very first place I'll stop to eat at is Inti. Just amazing!

First time today never back again .. food wasn't good and they charge 9 dollars for a 1 fried plante .. half price of the entre. Lol..

Very well flavored and seasoned. Substituted the white rice in the limo saltado for fried rice. Big fan of Peruvian food. Happy I found this place. Only reason I did not give 5 stars was because the waitress was really rude to my friend and I. But eventually we got a different waitress who was very sweet and gave us her personal favorites.

The food was sooo good! 10/10 I just discovered this place. And it's now my favorite place! They start you off with bread and green yummy sauce. The food comes in great big portions. They bring you any sauces you want. Very authentic Peruvian food. Will be coming here more!!

Flavor +++ Presentation +++ Ambiance +++ Location ++ Cleanliness +++ Service +++ Came across this place while driving back home. I was curious and tried it out. Definitely coming back!

The food is decent when there are not in a rush so half the time. The customer service is disappointing. When walking in they are not friendly and give off the gestures that you are bothering them. Lately they have been 30 minutes closing early and the staff is upset you're giving them business. They close at 8:30 pm which is not too late and the staff still wants to close at 8 pm. I have not had this experience with Mario's Peruvian which on the next street over. I will be dining there instead.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. The customer service is amazing. The food Omgosh you need to try it all and wash it down with an inka cola or a maracuya.

Food was great just like home! I got the bistec empanizado with fideos verdes ( which Is the breaded beef and pesto pasta) sooooo good and a big portion! I also had the papa huancaina and a chicha morass which u can't go wrong with. Also they gave little rolls w butter and the green spice sauce on the side. So yummy. I have to look for the picture bc I can't seem to find it since I went before Covid. Service was good too, nice and friendly. I would definitely love to try it again but I will keep you updated! :)

Amazing food. 10/10. very clean and very friendly , family style business. Whole in the wall restaraunt. i definitely recommend. The service is fast & friendly.

BOMB BOMB BOMN!!! I'm so glad I stumbled upon this listing. I had tried Peruvian food from Pollo Inka and another small business near China Town (can't recall the name) and both visits didn't convince me that Peruvian food was good BUT Inti changed that for me lol. I swear the lomo saltado was THE BEST!!! I'll be back soon - no photos to share

Was excited to try this place. Went with a big group, couldn't hear the people I was with so I asked a guy if he could turn the music down a little. He did & all was well. So I thought. My plate was taking a while, we asked for it and the same guy told us it's coming. The dish took a lot longer. Scanned the room and saw a table that was seated after us get their pollo saltado before me. When the dish finally arrived the food was cold. It almost felt like a personal petty gab for even asking for the music to be lowered. I sent the plate back. Will never come back. Horrible first experience. Can't even tell you how the food tasted bc it was cold.

First time coming here, they did not disappoint. Ordered the Lomo Saltado and it was so good! The steak was so tender, the potato's were crispy and everything was seasoned well.

Fish ceviche is one of the best we tried. It tastes so fresh, just perfect. Lomo saltado was very tasty as well. Their staff is attentive and efficient.

Lomo Saltado was so tender and flavorful. The staff was so patient with us when trying to pick what to eat and gave great recommendations. Maracuya was a great drink like a juice

Very good lomo saltado. The ceviche was okay, I've had better though. Nice staff but it has tiny parking lot and the restaurant looks very basic.

Food: the food here was delicious, i love their lomo saltado and the green sauce they give on the side! Service and ambiance: the service here is pretty bad. From the moment you walk in you get greeted with an upset stare from the older lady who works there and it just put a really weird energy in the room. She seemed like she was not happy to be there. It deterred me from dining in. Overall great food, great location, but bad service so I just stick to take out with this place. I went in on a Tuesday evening around 6:30 PM.

FOOD IS DELICIOUS! I found several vegetarian options and loved it. My family loves this place also. Every chance I have if driving near I have to make that stop.

Lomo saltado is good. But I've tried ordering thru the phone since they do take a while making my order and I've been left on hold for 10 minutes and when I let the cashier know she said "I don't think so, the phone is on and working" after being left on hold.. price has gone up as well..

This food is delicious! The employees are kind, professional, and Quick!! I always want to try something else however I stick to the Lomo Saltando (steak strips and fries). Typing this review is making my mouth water. It is flavorful, fresh, and a lot of food for $25! I look forward to visiting them when I return to LA on Sunday.

Within two minutes of knowing a Peruvian restaurant is in my neighborhood, I called Inti and ordered pickup. No reading reviews. No scoping out the joint. No menu browsing. I've been fortunate to have spent a few days in Peru and was wowed by the cuisine. So, I got excitado. Plus I need a serious break from Mexican food.

Best loml saltado in Hollywood , with chicken or shrimp or all 3 . Love the fried seafood as well.

Mediocre at best. I ordered chicken soup and Arroz Chaufa especial. The vegetable in their chicken soup consisted of cauliflower, broccoli, bell peppers and chunks of ginger that floated. It's almost like they opened a bag of stir fry vegetables from Birds Eye and through em in broth. What kind of soup is that!? Pollo de Gallina vegetables from a stir fry package? Nothing special at all. The chaufa on the other hand was very good. Don't order the chicken soup with vegetables. Not good! You're better off waiting for better Peruvian food around the block.

Good tasty food for the price. I always order ahead and it is never wrong. They could of labeled the trays though. I had 6 entrees and not labeled
