Natalie's Peruvian Restaurant

A Peruvian gem tucked away in a strip mall absolutely delivers. Perfectly seasoned lomo saltado with tender beef, fries soaking up that savory sauce, and fluffy rice on the side. Bright, fresh ají verde that actually has depth, not just heat and would be good on just about anything. Finished it off with plantains and a creamy Peruvian dessert that hit exactly right. Delicious food. Bold flavors. Attentive and friendly staff. This is the kind of place you remember and come back to.

It’s my second time here and I constantly think about this ceviche mixto 😂 instead of getting my usual lomo saltado I decided to try the mojarra frito! And wow such a delicate flavor, it’s a whole fried fish! This restaurant literally tastes like home made food with lotsa love. The service is 10/10 , and I would highly recommend. Yum 😋

Went for a late night dinner. Our server was great. The food was very good. Would definitely go back. It is a little small, seats about 20 people.

Delicious food & great service! This is my second time here — I loved their Jalea de Marisco last time so I had to come back. We got ceviche too this time and it was really good. I really recommend this place

To start, I ordered a leche de tigre that was really good, and for the main course, they recommended the lomo saltado, which was delicious and came in a very generous portion. The atmosphere is pleasant and comfortable, and I 100% recommend the place if you want to have a good time. :)

Had a very unpleasant experience. Staff was unwelcoming and rude. During nearly my entire visit a staff member was slamming dishes and cutlery less than a foot away from my head on a counter directly behind. The server made eye contact several times with myself and other members of my party and laughed with the other servers while continuing to disrupt our eating experience. They only moved to the back area after I had finished my subpar meal. Needless to say, I will not be returning.

Great place to come eat with your family! Customer service here was nothing but AMAZING!!!! staff here were so lovely and helpful to suit your dinner. The food was so tasteful had the perfect textures and seasonings! Need a quick yummy place? This place is it for that!

Have been wondering about this place for some time, finally was able to get some food. Got the lomo and chicken saltado, very tasty and large portions. Very filling, of course got some bread and the avocado wasabi. Great spot on hwood blvd.

Best Peruvian food restaurant in LA, shout out to Letty for the best service and ambience. Been coming here for years never disappoints!!!

Had lunch here with my girlfriend this afternoon and I had a wonderful time. The food, atmosphere, and service was amazing. Most definitely recommend.

favorite place to eat peruvian food and my waiter who attended us was letty super sweet and attentive

Amazing good the service was top tier got to try differently homemade salsas Very attentive server

Amazing food, amazing staff and amazing vibes! Definitely a place to try! Such bomb food!!!

Un lomito bien rico! Out of town Peruchita from the Bay Area and this lomo didn't disappoint. Meat was juicy, and the Ají sauce gave just the right kick. Added in a Leche de Tigre, the fish was so fresh! Highly recommend for that authentic taste. Check them out!

Muy buen servicio y la comida igual muy rica en especial la Jalea de Marisco. Toda la comida que pedimos esta super rico y la mesera muy amable

No family trip to SoCal from San Francisco is complete without coming here. Our LA cousin had shown us around Hollywood and taken us here for dinner. Located in a small little plaza by a 7-11, you would have never known this was here. You'd have no idea the hidden gem hidden in the corner would have some of the best Peruvian food I've ever had. I haven't been here in 10 years, but I'm so glad we did! Food is still amazing. I never forgot about the green sauce. We ordered a variety of dishes that were all so delicious.

Food was authentic and homey, full of flavor, fresh and tasty. Service was helpful and friendly. Ambiance was clean and homey. Menu has more items which I would come back to try more items on their menu.

This is our 2nd time coming to at this location in Hollywood. Love, love their pollo saltado with vegetables and their shrimp with lobster sauce. Customer service is excellent. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Stumbled upon this little hole in the wall I'm telling ya if you guys been to Mario's or any other places you guys need to come here and try out the food Amazing Amazing !! Leticia and Brenda where so helpful and attentive to our table. There we're amazing we will definitely be coming soon

Has all the staples of Peruvian food. I love the chaufas, the special Natalie one is delicious! Staff is helpful and knowledgeable. Been coming here since early 2000's. Highly recommend.

Looks can be deceiving from the outside, but this place proved to be a delicious hole in the wall. My friend ordered Lomo Saltado while I had Mojarra Frita. They were both excellent dishes! So flavorful. I will definitely be back when I'm craving fried fish. The gentleman who helped us was attentive, patient & spot on.

Food: tasty! Orders the cancha appetizer had to get another one cause it was so cool the chicharrón chicken too Service: suuuper personalized kind and so needed after a long day of work Ambiance: great music playing

Hands down the best Peruvian food in the city. I love trying different plates. The service is awesome and always on point.

I really enjoyed the food and the variety of items on the menu. The calamari was legit and the batter was made to perfection!! Service was 5 star!! Clean and welcoming atmosphere inside. They even had a nice private patio area outside that I thought was cool. It made it feel like you were at someone's home.

Wednesday September 13.2923 Visited Natalie Peruvian as part of my walk as I hadn't been by for a couple months and do love the food here so. I elected to be Covid-safe and eat outside at one of three tables they maintain where I was served by Nancy, a beautiful waitress with a million dollar smile who made sure to remember me there while most patrons elected to dine inside. I swapped out my usual chicken for shrimp and have the Saltado de Camarones dinner and I have to say, the plate arrives and it is just a sight to behold: colorful and beautiful as it steams before me, this is a perfect saltado de camarones. The shrimp were gorgeous, lightly seasoned, cooked to perfection which, for me, means soft, moist, and chewy without becoming tough, dry, and over cooked. The french fried potatoes were delicious too as they soaked up the broth of tomatoes, shrimp extract, onions and such. The whole dish just becomes a generous feast as you mix together the shrimp with the white rice and tomatoes, hit it all with that spicy green ajo sauce, and fork just the bite you want to eat... 10/10. NATALIE Peruvian does not get mentioned enough for being the truly delicious little hidden away gem that it is. It should get much more attention than it does for the authentic Peruvian seafood and dishes as well as for the kind staff they employ.

I have not been to this location, why not?? The food was delicious! We had lomo saltado and pollo both 10/10. Yum!! Customer service was 10/10, it was not busy but staff there was so attentive. The restaurant is decent size, it was not busy when we went in so got choose our own table and was, clean, nice and quiet There's parking right outside the restaurant if not there's plenty of meter parking.

We had the lomo Saltado and the Camarones en salsa de longosta and both were a solid 9/10. We live in the valley but will definitely be making a drive back to eat here again. What made this a 5 star was the excellent service!

So sad to leave this review but they always hit the spot but this time they've been slacking on the platano frito. I ordered it and when I got home the box was drenched with grease! It was so mushy I couldn't even eat the food. The new waitress who works there has a bad attitude as well. I called to place an order she told me to wait and I waited she clicked and called back and this lady didn't apologized or anything she said "what do you want ". Hopefully the next time I come there's a new set of employees with better attitude

Wow! My man used to work nearby and he loved this place. I've been hearing about it for years, but we are never down that way as it's like an hour plus away. I was nearby so I stopped by and picked up food to go today. My first time trying Peruvian food. It was SO good. I can't believe I let years go by without trying it sooner. We both got the Mar Y Tierra and it blew me away. I had to come and leave a review to say, don't miss out on this place. It's delicious.

I'm a fan. Almost hidden hole in the wall in the back corner of the shopping center. At first site I wasn't impressed but the food made up for it. The server was really cool guy and he recommended a couple of dishes that didn't disappoint. I got the Mar y tierra plate it was delicious. My coworkers had the ceviche and the salmon we all shared and all had the same opinion. This place is five star

Great food!! Great flavors!! Great service!! I had the Mariscos a la Natalie and it was fantastic! I'll bring my family next time!

Great staff and service. Family owned vibe, authentic food. You can't miss! Pull up and stay eatin!

Moved here from Miami where Peruvian food thrives! I was in dire need of finding a Peruvian gem here in LA and have found it at Natalie Peruvian in Glendale. I ordered the Chaufa de Cameron and seafood ceviche, and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is small and quaint, and slightly hidden, but the flavors and dishes are authentic! Our server was sweet, and it definitely satisfied the taste buds. Highly recommend!

Visited with a party of two and we got the Mar y Tierra and Pescado con Mariscos a la Natalie. The food was very flavorful with reasonable portions. The squid and octopus in particular was cooked very well. Server was very friendly and helped us with the menu since we haven't had much Peruvian food in the past. The entrance was hidden away in the corner of the lot but interior was very clean and seating was ample. Atmosphere was casual with music in the background. Overall a good experience; would recommend for a casual night out.

My first time to eat at Natalie's Peruvian Restaurant Food is very good and reasonable price Great ambiance. I love the lightings Service is great too Going back for sure

Amazing food. Will be back asap. The steak and potatoes with rice is one of the best I've already had :) super!!!!

Good good good! I came here one night and got the lomo saltado....DEEEEEE-LISH! The young woman, Brenda, who was here was very nice and attentive. I highly recommend this place. Definitely will come back.

What's not to love at Natalie? This was on my constant rotation for deliveries during the pandemic, so it was nice to dine. It's a hole in the wall kind of place tucked behind a 7-Eleven with plenty of parking in the lot and off the street. We came in on weekend at and didn't have to wait, which is a plus. We got the lomo saltado and the camarones al ajo. It was so good! I've liked everything that I've ordered off of here so far, will definitely be back!

Food is delicious and service is excellent Would definitely come back , we had a bald gentleman service us and the manner were amazing

Everything on their menu is to die for. Their civeche is super fresh! Love the pescado civeche. Tucked in a corner near 7 eleven.

The food was great and so was the service. I highly recommend trying the chicha morada and ceviche. I'll be coming here again soon!

Great Peruvian hole in the wall. Jesus was a great server. Good food good vibes. Try the ceviche and tallarenes verde.

My boyfriend is OBSESSED with this place (he only orders arroz con chaufa de pollo). However, coming from an actual peruvian who's grown up around peruvian food since day 1, this place is just okay. the tallerines verdes was okay, the pollo saltado is either good or it's not, and the chaufa is either okay or overly peppered. it's kind of funny because you don't really know how your food is ever going to turn out. i don't mind coming here though since my boyfriend loves it lol

There are two locations Glendale & Hollywood. I received my order from Hollywood. For the prices & descriptions you'd think you be getting a quality plate. I have ordered from this Franchise including a review on the Glendale location. It was fresh, tasty & the quality was amazing. Last nights meal was disappointing to say the least. If they don't have all the ingredients for a player they should temporarily remove from menu. I ordered Mariscos in Langostina sauce a $25.00 plate. Per restaurants description plate come with: Mussels, shrimp, octopus, squid in Langosta sauce. Came with 1 "mussel" what looked like 2 tiny caned shrimp & maybe half a can of "octopus" in other words rubbery calamari. They didn't add the squid as they claim comes in the plate. They forgot to pack white steamed rice the plate comes with and the additional $10 I spent for plantains. I was truly disappointed in the quality of the food. I ordered 2 other plates. The Arroz Chicken Chaufa. The chicken was super dry. The one good plate was the Beef tallarín. I hope they bring back the great quality food it use to be & bring back real shrimp REAL SEAFOOD. In total we spent about $90.00 & sad to say it wasn't worth it.

Hello to everyone who loves Peruvian Seafood this place is THE ONE YOU MUST TRY! The food is amazing my favorite plate is "Lomo Saltado" it was a 10/10. Great customer service & such a cozy place feels like home.

Worst experience ever today. I placed an order to go And paid for on the spot, including adding tip. The person that rung me up told me it would take maybe 10 to 15 minutes. I told her that wasn't a problem because I would be going to the 7-Eleven next-door and would be back in time. I return back to find out that the Cook has not even began my order. The hostess responded to the Cook saying this girl is waiting on her order. I sat there while an entire family of four including three people and two phone orders go through, get placed and get handed to the people who placed those orders before me. This hostess refuses eye contact, refuses to say anything to me or apologize or anything. I am a polite person so I try not to create drama. But after seeing all these orders being placed and given two people, I asked her where my order was. She asked me "oh you need a charger for your cell phone." I said no, I asked you where is my order. She immediately got irritated and said it's coming up. I waited another 15 minutes plus if not longer for my order to be done. And it tasted it awful. I am so sad about this because this is a place I have always loved. Been going there for the last 16 years and dealing with the same woman who I believe may be the wife of the owner I don't know but what I know is, I will never go back the fact that you know that I waited for so long over an hour, and not give any perk or apology attitude because of your failure. In total, I waited 70 minutes for one order I placed ahead of time. It also didn't help that right after my order was finally done. We had a 4.7 earthquake. Not sure if that's karma or what but honestly, I've never been more disappointed in my life when it comes to a place I go to all the time. Massive disrespect. Also, this is requiring me to place a star which I would not do at all. I will never give this place any star whatsoever again.

Best peruvian food in LA! So underrated! The service is amazing, there's parking, and the food is so good. I love the leche de tigre, lomo saltado, tallarin de carne, pescado con mariscos a la natalie (personal favorite), and their flan! I've been here multiple times so that's how I've been able to try a variety of plates.

I thought I'd write an updated review for Natalie's. This place is still just as good as I remembered. I ordered via door dash, the food came quickly & it tasted great. This might be my favorite place for lomo saltado. I actually want to go back & dine in person. I remember their ceviche option being diverse & delicious but I didn't want to order it via delivery service. I opted for the fried calamari & it didn't disappoint.

Best Peruvian Food, I ever tasted it's the best you really have to come here. Jesus is the most amazing person and super helpful they have super good service. Everything is amazing super good!

Food authentic Peruvian flavor, delicious I like it a lot Service is excellent The restaurant is clean nice Peruvian decorations I recommend to everyone looking for authentic Peruvian flavors

Natalie's has Great ambience, customer service, and good food. Craving Peruvian food this is the spot. This day my coworkers and I had Aji de Gallina, Lomo Saltado de Carne con Vegetables, pechuga de pollo y canchas. My favorite drink there is Maracuya & dessert flan & lucuma.

First time here . Went because of yelp reviews but food was not as good as I was hoping. Place was small but well maintained and looked clean . Name says seafood so we were hoping for great seafood. Had a ceviche and was just ok. Had a much better ceviche at other places . I grew up in peru so I know what good peruvian food taste like . Menu did comprised of many different items to choose from. Overall just an ok experience to beat the hunger .

The food was good and came out pretty quickly. The service was mostly good. We did go about an hour before closing and we could definitely feel that the vibe was changing. The restaurant has a nice feel to it and the prices were fair. We would dine there again if in the area.

Been a regular here for a few years now and they never miss! Tried many of their dishes and all hit! If I had to pick my favorite, it would be the Camarones de ajo! Aside from amazing food, they have amazing service! Jesus is the best server ever!

Came here on a double date with some fellow Peruvian cuisine lovers. We ordered the pescado con mariscos a la Natalie, which contains mixed seafood plate in a delicious creamy sauce. We also ordered the camarones en salsa de langosta, which is a shrimp dish in a creamy lobster sauce. Though both dishes include a creamy sauce, the flavors were indeed different and I honestly enjoyed both of them a lot! Wouldn't be able to choose one over the other! We also ordered the lomo saltado and the ceviche. The lomo was good! Could be more tender but overall yummy. The ceviche was refreshing. Side note: the restaurant was super hot inside! Not sure if they have air conditioning or not.

La comida excelente, sobre todo muy buen servicio muy rico todo. Es una buena alternativa para pasar en familia.

I went here maybe about 5 years ago and loved the lomo saltado but yesterday my mind has changed about it. The flavor was more peppery than the typical Peruvian flavor. The meat wasn't tender and juicy. I found myself forcing myself to eat the dish. I had some small leftovers and usually I would take it home but I couldn't find myself to do it. I also found out the aji sauce contains peanuts which I was told after I asked the waitress if any food we have had nuts- I'm allergic. I'm sure it was an honest mistake but for all us people with food allergies it can be fatal. Luckily, I only tried a dot of it on my bread so I didn't have an allergy reaction. After finding that out, I felt almost uncomfortable eating my food. Unfortunately I don't think we would come back here again.
