Llama Queen

We ate here with a large group and we all enjoyed our meal here. We showed up right before peak dinner time and the place quickly filled up, but the service from the staff still remained prompt and friendly. I really enjoyed the chicken and beef dishes, both good portion size and tasty.

We had one of the most memorable dining experiences recently at Llama Queen, and I have to give an enormous shout-out to Lilia, whose warmth, expertise, and recommendations completely elevated our night. First of all, the atmosphere was everything. We were lucky enough to catch that perfect early evening glow — just the right temperature to sit outdoors without a jacket, with a gentle breeze and fairy lighting that made the entire patio feel like a dream. The setup outside is thoughtfully done: cozy, welcoming, liveliness from the traditional music. And the food… wow. Thank you!!

This place is amazing on all fronts. A comfortable covered patio with beautiful decor and lively music. Hailey, my server, was so kind and walked me through menu options when I had questions. The food was authentic and delicious. The complementary roasted corn appetizer is a ‘destination’ item I would come back for. I hope this place sticks around because I intend to come here the next time I visit Austin.

Awesome experience. Brought my dad here who is from Peru and he loved it. They have all of the authentic classic dishes and drinks. Already planning to come back. Come here when the sun is setting and it’s such a vibe 🙌

First time in Austin. Out of 5 Peruvian we chose this one due to it being the closest to our location. We were not disappointed, we sat outside, the atmosphere was awesome and the food was very tasteful. 100% recommend. Our server Nhu was very friendly and made our stay welcomed.

Outdoor patio with live acoustic music. The misters kept it cool. It’s a pricey place but I enjoyed the authentic Peruvian dishes. I wish they used some different ají sauces for variety. The yucca fries were cooked perfectly. My plate was lukewarm but great taste. Our waiter was friendly.

Like many other restaurants, you have to dig through the internet or reviews to find photos of the menu items. I personally prefer having the menu pictures ready so I can make decisions faster on what to choose. The apps were delicious. However we were not advised at how big of portions they were (which makes sense given they were $12) I think the menu should note that appetizers are meant to be shared. We greatly enjoyed our sampler ceviches and quinoa salad with steak. The steak was delicious.

The vibes are immaculate here and the food was top notch! Hailey was an amazing waitress and made our time here even better with great suggestions! The Shrimp Anticuchos and Tres Leches were great also!

Grace was amazing during our Authentic Peruvian Experience! The Pisco Sour is so good! Ceviche Mixto Aji De Gallina

Went here for my birthday and the food was amazing! Shout out to Grace for the amazing recommendations and llama keychains! We'll for sure be back!

Woowee, this place is fantastic. Great patio and ambiance, wonderful service from our server, Hailey, and super good food. Must: Arroz con Mariscos Pulpo Rostizado Lomo a la Huancaina Chicha Sour Lucuma Cheesecake Yum! Definitely will be back!

As always, Llama Queen is a hit! I love bringing visitors here when they're in town. I always get a pisco sour and a ceviche, and then typically try a mix of things from the menu. Everything is delicious! Highly recommend the ceviche nikkei and the half chicken. Service is always attentive and so friendly. I typically uber here, but there is a free lot with several spots to the side of the restaurant. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Check it out next time you want to go out for dinner!

As all the reviews say, service is here is kind and attentive. Thank you for directing us to your favorite dishes - and creating an overall lovely atmosphere. The restaurant itself has spacious outdoor seating, beneath hanging lights that is so very nice. A perfect date spot or catching up with friends - it feels relaxed and lovely at the same time. We ordered the ceviche sampler as well as the shrimp anticuchos. The ceviche sampler was a fun appetizer - and we enjoyed each of them, which were different enough from each other, but also complimented one another. The anticuchos were tasty as well - and the highlight was the Peruvian corn it sat atop. We also enjoyed tasting the Peruvian juice drinks. Will definitely want to come back to try some of the other dishes.

Ambiance: 5/5: We grabbed dinner on a Saturday evening. Surprisingly it wasn't really busy, so we got a table outside pretty quick. They had a live band playing which added to the vibe of our experience. Service: 5/5: Our waitress did a great job at checking in and gave good recommendations. Food: 5/5: We ordered the yuca appetizer for the table and it was pretty good. I ordered the ceviche mixto for myself and I really enjoyed it. Will probably order it again next time. Drinks: 5/5: The drinks were ordered were great too.

A hidden gem, the owners have done a great job transforming their little lot on the east side into a Peruvian oasis. Despite hot Texas summers they have done a great job curating an outdoor space that makes the heat tolerable. Love the atmosphere. Fantastic food. Must try the ceviche, you can't go wrong with any of them, if you can't decide just get the sampler. Full of flavor and beautiful presentation. Also, they make fantastic mocktails!

Previously "Llama Kid," it looks like they're all grown up and now a Llama Queen! LQ is located on the Eastside, and is a mostly-patio restaurant. But don't let that deter you during inclement weather. There's plenty of covered shade and fans for the warmer days; heaters and gas fire pits when the temps drop. They also have colorful pink decor, wood sculptures, art, plants...it's a fun vibe. It was happy hour, so we started with discounted yucca fries and ceviche con leche de tigre. LOVE leche de tigre... I could drink that juice. Being that it was New Year's Day and leche de tigre is a hangover cure-all, I was all over that juice. The piscos were flowin' but I think my fave was the Pa-Llama, a mescal cocktail made with lime juice, grapefruit liquor, grapefruit juice, and soda. For my entree, I ordered lomo la huancaina but subbed the beef for chicken. The sauce wasn't as creamy and rich as other places I'd been to, but I still enjoyed it. But my fave, again, was the leche de tigre.

Llama Queen is a true hidden gem. We started with the ceviche tasting, which included a mix of fresh seafood and crispy fried fish--bright, citrusy, and super refreshing. Each bite had a great lemony kick that set the tone for the rest of the meal. The grilled octopus was the star--unbelievably tender, it practically melted in your mouth. Served over stir-fried vegetables and plated with vibrant colors, it was as beautiful as it was delicious. We also tried the beef skewers anticuchos--well-cooked and flavorful, though in hindsight we should've gone all-in with a full fish entrée instead. The beet salad on the side was a great palate cleanser--light, sour, and perfectly delicate. And the mocktail was a pleasant surprise--minty, citrus-forward, and rich in flavor. There's plenty of outdoor seating; it was hot, but the fans made it bearable. The service was friendly and attentive. Definitely a spot I'd return to--delicious food, great presentation, and chill vibes.

No more llamas on the tables sadly! I really liked those-they were very cute. Very limited indoor seating. There is more outdoor seating-there are fans outside and it feels nice. The rice is too salty. Jalea Mixta is good but came with only one dipping sauce so I got another one. I didn't realize it was $1 more. I feel like sauce should be complimentary. I like the drink Chicha Morada-it's definitely a fall drink because it contains some spices-pumpkin? One unisex bathroom stall.

Such a great spot with the most delicious food and drinks. Everything was super fresh, and the flavors were amazing. The vibe was perfect, and our servers, Juan and Lillian, made the experience even better. I'm so happy this place is just five minutes from home--we'll definitely be back! Our order: Ceviche tasting Aji de Galtina Lomo Saltado

We only stopped in for a cocktail before a dinner reservation elsewhere and the vibes were right and the menu looked fantastic. We ended up getting an appetizer of the leche de tigre and upped it to the llama queen way. 10/10 would get this again. We're already making plans to come back for dinner. Grace our server was very knowledgeable and gave great drink recommendations. Shoutout to Haley (another server) too!

This is my third time being here, came here to redeem an offline offer. We ordered two dishes and they are both amazing! The Arroz con Mariscos is very creamy and I love that there are so much seafood (shrimp, clamps, and squid) on top of the dish. As far as the Jalea mixta, it's really crispy - there's a sauce on the side to dip and I wish that they gave us more bc it's delicious! Absolutely love their food and the atmosphere is great. Service is fast and superb. Will come back here again!

The place is so cool! I felt like I was transport somewhere else. The drinks were super good and balanced. They were attentive and brought out our food at a good time. The food had a great presentation and the flavors were interesting. Some of the food was a bit salty for my taste but I'm assuming maybe some Peruvian dishes are on the heavy on the salt because the stuff I did recognize was good. Overall, want to come again to try out their other drinks and food. It is on the pricey side though.

Amazing food, lovely ambiance, stupendous service. Best night out at a restaurant in a long while :) Get the ceviche sampler, beet salad, and the antichuchos (beef). All outstanding! We shared a short rib seco as our main, and while delicious, wasn't anything I'd order again. Drinks are all tasty - so many options. Get several. Thanks for a beautiful night, Llama Queen.

Went here the other day with a group of 6 friends. They have a parking lot which is always nice plus indoor/outdoor seating. Most spots are outdoors in huge covered patio with misters. Inside seating is limited but available. Service was on point and the staff was super helpful and friendly throughout. I got the ceviche mixto, lady llama drink, and a tres leche cake. The ceviche mixto had a wonderful array of different seafood and the sauce was so good you wanted to drink it. The lady llama was fresh and not too strong. The tres leche was light and moist. Would definitely come here again!

Don't be a drama queen! Eat at llama queen instead. The Ceviches were amazing so tangy, we tried an original and a mixed ceviche. The chichi morada drink was delicious. Our server, Glrace was so cutesy! This is a ceviche heaven! A must try for any ceviche lover! They are the llama queens of Austin!

The food and Grace were amazing. The ceviche Nikkei was one of the best dishes I've had in Austin.

Food was fantastic! Grace took care of us and was very knowledgeable about the menu which it was our first time so we really appreciated it. Ceviche Mixto was so refreshing I could eat just that alone and be happy. This place was recommended to us by family member who spent significant time in Peru and said it brought her right back there so we had to check it out. Did not disappoint and will 100% be back!

Food was amazing! Drinks were really good. Service was spectacular, thanks Nicki for a wonderful first experience

We decided to come here with my mother and father-in-law when they flew up for a visit. We all love Peruvian food and were excited to try this place. The seating is mostly outdoors on long picnic tables, and much of it is covered and partially protected from the elements which was really nice. The staff were prompt and helpful, and the vibes were so fun! The music got a little bit loud to speak over, but it made it fun for sure! The food was awesome! I got the pollo a la brasa which was so good, and everyone else got the ceviche classico, which I'm told "Hit the spot." We loved it and will definitely be back!

What a delicious dinner at Llama Queen! Happy to see this establishment re-open, as the Ceviche Mixto was on point, paired with plantain chips. I ordered the Pollo a la Brasa, and it was moist, and crispy on the outside. The potatoes were golden brown, and the salad was crisp drizzled with the right amount of dressing that had a perfect amount of tang. My husband ordered the Risotto de Mariscos and it was creamy and flavorful. Topped the evening with a slice of Tres Leches. It was superb! I loved their music selection, as I love salsa music. The restaurant was well lit, and I loved the outdoor seating. Our waitress was delightful, kind, and gracious! If you love Peruvian food, or want to try Peruvian fare, Llama Queen is a must try. ¡Todo fue muy rico!

Wonderful experience at Llama Queen! I had been craving Peruvian food and everything here is authentic & flavorful. The owner is from Peru and the menu reflects a variety of local favorites and ingredients. This is actually the only sit-down spot in Austin I know that offers Peruvian and does it so well! First, the ambiance. How CUTE is this place!! Love all the thoughtful touches, colorful pieces of art, and Peruvian decor. The glossy tables and string lights make for a cozy, elevated outdoor dining experience. It's a beautiful and lively space! Inside you'll find a smaller seating area with a colorful bench, little skylight, and eclectic bar area. Drinks are a must, the cocktails here are fantastic! We definitely wanted to try the traditional pisco sour as well as the chicha sour -- a more tangy version made with chicha morada (or purple corn) -- and it was my first time trying the latter. We LOVED them both but especially the chicha morada! So tasty with foamy egg white and it's a gorgg purple color so that's a plus :) To start, we got the yucas fritas (or cassava fries) and they came with a huancaina-like yellow dipping sauce but cheesier, almost like a queso. The combo was fantastic and the yucas fries were made perfectly! Fluffy inside but crispy on the outside. We also got the ceviche tasting, which is a great choice if you can't decide which one you want or want to try them all. This includes all 3 -- ceviche clasico, nikkei, and mixto. My partner loved the clasico and my favorite was the nikkei! The tangy sauceeeee is just amazing. For our entrees, we got the lomo saltado and pollo a la brasa. The lomo saltado is a classic favorite! The pollo a la brasa is a more simple, roasted chicken dish, but the flavors were all there. The potatoes that came with both were addicting! Neither came with a dipping sauce so we asked our waiter for some and he brought out this orange spicy sauce and a green cilantro sauce that complimented the dish well and were great for dipping the potatoes. Finally, dessert! We got the Lucuma cheesecake and Suspiro a la limeña because they sounded the most interesting. Our waiter described Lucuma as a Peruvian fruit and only after biting into it did I realize I have had it before (or something similar!) It tasted like Sapodilla. While unique, the cheesecake was a little grainier than I prefer. The Suspiro a la limeña was a combination of caramel and condensed milk in a martini glass. While it was pretty sweet, what's not to like! Service was great! Everyone we spoke to was attentive and helpful, knowledgeable of the food and ready to offer suggestions. They checked in on us often and made sure we were taken care of. We had a lovely time and can't wait to return!

This was a fun find! When the restaurant down the street had a 2 1/2 hour wait, we ventured into Llama Queen and decided to give it a try. We sat inside (very limited seating, but it has A/C and it was one of those over 100 degree days). However, we decided that due to the misters and covered seating outside, next time we should try that instead. Our server, Laura, did a wonderful job of taking care of us and offering insight into the different dishes and cocktails we should try. She even made sure to let us know about their weekend happy hours. We arrived in time to try some of their happy hour specials and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The cocktails were $10 instead of $15 and were delicious. They also had a few food items at happy hour prices, but I can't remember which ones they were. We decided to order several dishes for sharing and did the Ceviche Tasting, Risotto de Mariscos and Yuccas. The tasting was fantastic and I would highly recommend it. We left happy and excited to come back.

This is a solid place to meet up for dinner to catch up with a friend or small group. It was cold when I went and there is a small kitchen with a few spots for seating indoors but they do have an area enclosed by plastic with tables and heating lamps so that you can eat your meal comfortably. The service is table side so its pretty much as if you're eating at a restaurant, minus the plastic walls. I bet they're able to be opened when the weather is nice which should provide for a great atmosphere. One thing to keep in mind is that the prices for the dishes are on the pricier side. ($25-$30 per entrée) but I would add that their portion sizes are decent. Depending on your hunger level, you can probably stretch out the food over two meals. Now for the highlight, every single thing that I ate there was delicious. I had the Chicha Morada to drink which had a pleasant, not overly tart or sweet flavor. The Papas Bravas were cut perfectly sized and crispy. They were accompanied with a white aioli sauce that was divine. I asked for extra to take home with my potato leftovers. For my main course, I had the Lomo Saltado which came with beef in a brown sauce, more potatoes and rice. The sauce was to die for. I loved dipping my rice and potatoes in it as I ate the meat. It was a perfect combination. I tried my husband's Lomo with Fetuccini. It had a bit of a spice kick for my tastes (I'm a wimp so if you're into spicy food, you will most likely hardly notice it) and the consistency of the white sauce on the fetuccini was delectably creamy. We met up with a friend who we hadn't seen since before the holidays and had plenty to celebrate so we decided to order a slice of the Lucuma Cheesecake. We didn't know what fruit it was but my goodness, the texture and taste of the cheesecake was absolutely mouthwatering. It was a berry compote on top that complimented the creamy, dense, sweet, rich texture and flavor of the cake and the crust was perfect as well. I highly recommend this unique option of you're looking to get dessert!

Llama queen offers authentic Peruvian food voted one of the best places to eat in yelp. Majority of the restaurant is outside but there is plenty of shade and fans to keep you cool. All of the food we had was great Peruvian dishes offer very heavy potato dishes. We got an order of the Yuka fries which features a delicious dipping sauce. For our main dish we got the chicken which comes with more potatoes and was really delicious. Service was ok they were a little slow and there were times that they forgot about us. It could have been better. Overall I really enjoyed the food and the vibe of this place.

Ambiance and food was great! Our server Haley was very helpful!! We had the tres leches and it was good.

We happened upon llama and so happy we tried it! The food was fantastic and great quality! We got the ceviche, lomo saltado and quarter chicken. It was a bit on the pricey side but when we got the food it was such good quality we understood why. There's lot of parking, most of the seating is outdoors in their covered patio area

Nhu was an amazing server! The food and ambiance is exquisite and llama queen deserves 5 big booms!

Amazing food, plenty of Gluten Free options and our server, Haleigh, was great! We hope to be back soon!

Im not sure if this will sound right, but gere we go. Service Grace was amazing and food was good. But it lacked flavor, seasoning to be exact. But overall not our first time coming and it just did not have the same great flavor. we will be back and the ambiance was good as well comfortable.

Long wait walking in but food was well worth it. Loved the lomo saltado, cheesecake, and sandwich. Restaurant is next to a brewery and two other bars/restaurants in walking distance (though you do need to cross traffic). Service was extra slow which sucks for a big table trying to flag down your waiter for water or more drinks, though it was busy so maybe they were just understaffed at the time. Regardless, good enough to come back for.

This is a lovely restaurant with ample parking spaces and outdoor seating. Perfect for patio season. The decor is very cute and servers are extremely nice and knowledgeable. We ordered the Maracuya sour and Maracuya juice which I love. We had the yucca frita and that very soft on the inside while crispy on the outside and the yellow sauce it was served with was amazing! For mains I went with the pulpo which was a nice size dish. It was a bit more to the salty side and very garlicky. I love those flavors profiles, but if you're not a fan, ask your server for options. The pulpo was soft and the broccolini and potatoes added to the freshness of the dish. Just wish the pulpo had more of a char, but it was very flavorful nonetheless. Our server brought us a chocolate cake, which I just had a small bite as I'm gluten intolerant, but it was nice. Not too sweet and the caramel sauce it was served with was delicious. My friend had the 3leches and those were big portions. Can't wait to be back again for those late night summer dinners.

Splendid location and food!! And talk about a great staff! Everything was delicious and they really did an amazing job for our family get together- we had a large 14 people group and they put tables together for us and were so helpful with all the orders!! Loved our time there. This Peruvian restaurant has taken care to use natural ingredients as well as they will carefully inform you of ingredients if you have gluten allergies, etc. it was great to work with knowledgeable staff as we had several dietary restrictions and they were super helpful about it... and then we got coffee in these absolutely cute mugs that some of us purchased for $10!! Perfect ending!! Anyway first I ordered some general appetizers for all while everyone decided what to have. I got us some ceviche (traditional) it was exquisite! Some of the beef anticuchos, they were very savory seasoned (but sadly,not heart) we also got some huancaina potatoes very very yummy and jalea which was delicious. All these dishes were not hot (picante) which I would have liked a little more of, but that's my personal preference. They did put side dishes of the 3 aji styles that they have, the green one, the yellow one and the rocoto ted one that was my favorite and quite flavorful (but not as hot as you can get in Lima - lol-) try them all! You have to ask for the hot sauces. Then we each ordered our main entree and I got the aji de gallina. Oh it did not disappoint!! It was GOOD! I tried to taste my partner's lomo saltado which had delicious cubed pieces of beef ( that were actually cooked to your desired point (he wanted medium and they were so!) but he was chomping away with such gusto ... and so was I... that neither of us offered! Next time we will leave room for dessert... I bet it's just as delicious! Enjoy!

Incredible food 100% would recommend. This is the best Peruvian food you will get in Austin. Their Lomo Saltado w The fettuccine noodles is delicious! Definitely try the Nikkei ceviche and the seco too!

We had been wanted to try this place for a while and finally went and loved it! We will def come back! We LOVED the ceviche - we got the sampler to try them all and the original and Asian fusion style were my favorites! I personally just prefer fish ceviche to other seafood but my fiancée said the other seafood ceviche was also delicious! We started with the yucca fries and they were fried perfectly and great side sauce! We also split a half order of the rotisserie chicken, it came with a house salad and side potatoes. Honestly everything was so fresh and great flavors. We got the maracuya juice too and loved it. We have no complaints - service was great and ambiance was super nice as well. Decor is so cute and colorful! We sat outside with our dog too so they are dog friendly! Can't wait to go back for the ceviche - just get it!!

Food is good. It's a bit pricey but the quality is good and it's the only acceptable Peruvian food in Austin. It doesn't compare to the Peruvian food in Miami /South Florida but it's very good nonetheless and the patio is super cute with a great DJ and nice service. It does feel overpriced for the portions and the fact that it's mostly patio seating though. Regardless, I hope this place sticks around! I ordered a causa with red snapper ceviche and then the arroz chaufa (not pictured). My friend ordered the lomo saltado which came more in thin slices than chunks but tasted very good and she said she enjoyed it.

Food was dope. I don't know how authentic everything was but it tasted pretty good to me. Great portion sizes, great location, drinks are outstanding. I drank chicha morada so fast. I don't know what it was like when they were still llamas kid but the rebrand seems to be doing well for them cause the spot was packed

10/10!! atmosphere is amazing. outdoor seating is clean, fans with the mist, live music. service was great (i forgot her name but she was the young Colombian girl)... super attentive and very knowledgable about the menu. always checking up in us. my husband is from peru, we live in california and have tried manyyyy peruvian restaurants. this was his favorite he has had in the USA. very authentic. ceviche mixto was our favorite. wish we had something like this in California.

Have been wanting to check this place out forever! We got the lomo and the neikkei ceviche. That ceviche was everything I dreamed of. I was ready to lick the plate clean from that little sour lemony sauce. Soooo good! Lomo was good but nothing insane. I felt that it was a bit overcooked for beef tenderloin. This place is definitely pricey. I think the atmosphere here is really cool and intimate, nice for a date. HOWEVER: the outdoor seating is terribly terribly uncomfortable. My butt was hurting all night and I had to eat my food really fast so that I could leave asap. Def not good for bringing older people.

I heard mixed reviews at Llama Queen and initially I was trying to meet some friends at De Nada's restaurant across the way, but there was an hour and half wait! I'm glad we migrated over here and found ourselves more enjoyable dinner with plenty of parking. The restaurant itself is mostly outdoors, but they have it covered with mist fans! I brought my dog with me and they were pet friendly in the patio which I alwats appreciate ATX restaurants are pet friendly. Customer service from our waitress "Grace" was top notch and the apps, entrees, and cocktails were tasty, & delicious. Knocking off 1 star just because I feel the pricing could be more affordable since it didn't feel like a fine dining spot.

The seating area is so beautiful. I love the rustic feel with the string lights, wooden beam structures, and the warm toned benches, although a little hard to sit on and far from the table. The general area is very well done and is a nice place for a summer date night. Parking is a pretty spacious lot and did not have issues finding a spot. You can pay your check through the QR code on the tables which is handy. We got the classic ceviche ($23) and lomo saltado ($28). The ceviche was very fresh and tangy, really nice flavor that lingers on your tongue even when you are finished with the meal and driving back home. The lomo saltado has a very home style taste and is comforting and very saucey. I will say even though both dishes were good, the portions were on the small side and it's a bit too expensive. I think they make more sense at the $16-18 and $21-23 price point, especially at its east side location in the middle of nowhere. I wouldn't say these flavors are unique enough that you cannot get anywhere else, they are just well done and if you don't mind spending a little more, it's a fine choice.

I had such an amazing time at Llama Queen! The food was fantastic, the filet bites were some of the most tender and flavorful beef I've ever had! The octopus was deemed "best octopus in the city" by the table and I savored every bite. One friend wanted something a little more traditional and got the rice dish (forget the name) and she enjoyed it as well. We went on a cold night but the patio was actually very well heated and cozy. We opted for inside regardless and got to spend extra time with our lovely waitress Caroline. She was attentive, informative and funny! She provided excellent suggestions for a table of people who have never tried Peruvian food before! Would absolutely go back again and try more items on the menu. Drinks were good too! I mentioned I was doing dry January and Caroline was able to suggest a fantastic mocktail. Overall great experience and would recommend for anyone who loves or just wants to try Peruvian food in Austin.

This was much better than I expected. I thought it was simply a food truck and a cold patio table. There's plenty of parking. We arrived without reservations on a Friday night, but were quickly sat for two in their cute tented space. It was such a charming spot with lights and plenty of heat lamps. The service was so warm and genuine from every. single. person. from the hostess, our server and the food runners. They had a dessert with a fruit I've never heard of called lacuma. It's a vanilla/sweet potato flavor. We had the ice cream and it was really nice like a caramel flavor. We got a ceviche sampler, which was great because my favorite was not the one I wouldn't ordered first. I would definitely come back to try more things.

Llama Kid Went with friends for Happy Hour and this is a great deal! It ends at 6:00pm on Friday, so get there early. We ordered one of every app and I had the Maracaya Sour. This drink was so delicious - you can't even notice the alcohol. For food we got: Chicharron de calamar - very light and tasty, kinda spicy. Yucca Fries - light and the sauce that comes with is unique and tasty. Causa de Pollo - this was unique, it was cold and had a tang to it. I wouldn't order it again. Salchi Papas - this was the best dish, the potatoes and sausage with lettuce and sauce is 10/10. Quarter Chicken - very large portion and amazing with the sauce and salad. This is also a must! Can't wait to come and have dinner here! The atmosphere was great, the service was so prompt and quick. After dividing the food and drinks up it was $20 a person - great value.

Very good! Llama Kid has a vibrant outdoor patio and a compact indoor area. Even with the killer heat, most patrons opted to dine outside on the picnic benches. I haven't seen chicha morada on a menu since visiting Peru. Llama Kid's version was so refreshing and fruit forward -- delicious! This is definitely high-end Peruvian food with beautiful plating and execution. I loved the lomo saltado and Nikkei ceviche. The one questionable item was the salmon skewer as it was essentially seared salmon or medium rare at best (see photo).

Really cool place to eat and listen to live music. We just went on a Friday night to listen to the Latin Dukes and were pleasantly surprised with the food. I would have given 5 stars but the drinks took forever. First a few notes - we made reservations ahead of time for our party of nine, so didn't have to wait. The restroom was clean. The menu wasn't overwhelming. The service wasn't the best because we had to wait a long time for drinks to be made and were basically done eating before mixed drinks came. Like everywhere else, it's probably due to staffing, but that did impact the full experience. Now the food. The kids loved the chicken and beef tenderloin skewers. The potato fries were okay. The adults LOVED the short rib!! The seco de costilla plate. Loved the shrimp skewer. Loved the quinoa salad. And loved the fried calamari seafood (mixto). The drinks were good too. We did the Piscojito and mango mule. They just took long to make.

Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Plenty to share. Highly authentic including the complimentary Pisco sours served in tall shot glasses/liqueur glasses. Great ambience with patio seating. Excellent choice for lunch. I'm sure it is for dinner, as well.

THE BIG: Located in East Austin with tons of parking. I personally love their sign, reminds me of argyle. Outdoor patio is now open. THE BLACK AND WHITE: My fiance and I came here after a 2 hr paddleboarding session and it was packed! Apparently it was their grand opening of their outdoor area and they were serving drinks and hor d'voures which included: chicken skewers, briscuit baos, and dressed mashed potatoes. The line did take a while to go down, it took us 40 mins to get a table. Not sure if this is normal. When we got our seat, we ordered the full chicken and yucca fries. The yucca fries were a bit disappointing, too fried that left the starch very dry. The chicken was amazing! It also came with more potatoes. ALL THE CARBS! Service is slow. we waited for 20 mins after finishing to eat to get boxes and check out. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, the price for a full chicken + yucca fries was about $40 not including tip. A bit pricey for the food quality but if you're feeling peruvian, I'd say to check this place out.
