Simple Peruvian - Sunnyside

I’ve been to many Peruvian restaurants and this is by far the best one. The place is beautiful! The menu was simple with all the best dishes. My friends and I ordered just about everything on the menu and it was absolutely delicious. We will definitely come back again

This place is amazing. The food, service - perfect. Quick and casual. But solid food. I mean look at my meal. For less than $15 is such a good deal. I got half chicken plate.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Simple Peruvian is a hidden gem! The food was absolutely spectacular — the jalea was perfectly crispy, flavorful, and easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The airport chaufa was just as impressive, packed with bold flavors and generous portions that made it a standout dish. The sampler is a great choice as it covers all angles of the palette. On top of the incredible food, the staff made the experience even better. Everyone was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, which gave the meal such a positive vibe. If you’re craving authentic Peruvian flavors in a fast casual setting, Simple Peruvian should be at the top of your list. I’ll definitely be coming back!

As a Peruvian, I am loving this place and concept. Simple and delicious. Love the pay and sit and serve concept. The lomo saltado was my favorite. Also affordable prices and good portions. All the staff was very friendly and helpful!

Food was fresh & DELICIOUS! Tried the Jalea & ceviche mixto, wasn't bad at all.... my brother had their chicken & chaufa, was pretty yummy too. All in all, definitely coming back here, (finally don't have to resort to the only Peruvian spot in Sunnyside, which was Pollo Rico)...

Came in with a couple of friends and split a number of dishes, all of which were flavorful and fresh. Plenty of seating in a friendly atmosphere, service was quick and attentive. Left feeling very satisfied, definitely will come again to try take-out!

Simple Peruvian team is extremely kind and the system is straight forward. Either take-out or dine-in. When dining in you take a number and choose a seat of your liking. When your food is ready they’ll bring it out to you. I walked in around 8:50 PM and ordered take-out for a whole rotisserie chicken. It took about 15 minutes, and the chicken came out hot and fresh. Brought it home and I was delighted to enjoy the juiciest and most flavorful chicken I’ve had in a very long time. I am looking forward to enjoying the other Peruvian delicacies they prepare. Thank you very much, Simple Peruvian!

Stopped by for dinner last week and was blown away by how amazing the food is. Great spot for a full Peruvian dinner or a quick half chicken lunch The space is cute and the menu is delicious, with all the Peruvian favorites. Absolutely love the Ceviche, Lomo Saltado, the best fried rice and Jalea

I came to Simple Peruvian after seeing an IG post that caught my attention, and I'm glad I did! This spot is pretty unique with its fusion of Asian and Spanish influences in the cuisine. You can order from the kiosk out front or directly at the register, and they even have a rewards program you can sign up for. We ordered a variety of dishes, starting with the Lomo Saltado, which came with a free side thanks to their grand opening promo--we chose the fried wontons (3 pieces), and they were quite good. For my main entrée, I had the Ceviche Mixto with rice & beans as the free side. The ceviche had a lot of onions, which I personally wasn't a fan of, but the side was tasty. We also tried the dumplings, which reminded me of mini empanadas, and they were enjoyable as well. The atmosphere is very casual. You seat yourself if you're dining in, and they bring the food to your table after you take a number. Overall, it's a nice little spot with interesting flavors and a laid-back vibe.

I went to Grand opening, boy it was packed! First you order up in the front counter, Pay and sit. My family and I ordered lomo saltado that came with a free app, the app trio, wonton soup, chirimoya ice cream and picarones. We got the wonton soup first, lacked some flavored but was full of wontons and chicken chunks. Next, the app trio which included fried wonton ( one piece), arroz Chaufa ( cold), ceviche mixto and pollo a la brasa( also cold and lacked flavor). Then we got the lomo saltado which didn't even taste like authentic lomo saltado. Then the waiter forgot our desserts so he went to get it and wreaked a good 20 mins for ice cream and picarones( Peruvian doughnuts). Ice cream was amazing of course and the picarones were ok, didn't like the fact that only 3 came out in a portion and the sauce was just drizzled on top instead of on the side or on the plate. I really liked the ice cream, so I ordered 2 to go along either picarones... boy it was the biggest mistake I did. It took over an hour to get my order right. At first they only gave me one ice cream and they forgot to put the rest in my bag. They took it back and I only had 2 ice creams and no picarones! I'm glad I checked twice because they messed up big time, shouldn't have taken that long. The staff saw how pissed off I was so they offered me a drink to go... I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon. I wish them the best of luck!

I passed this brand new store front while making a trip to Kora. Peruvian is one of my favorite cuisines so of course I had to order. The inside was very clean and pretty. It's a fast casual restaurant, where you order up front and get a # and they bring it to your table. I ordered to go. I got the half chicken platter which comes with salad and either a choice of fries or chicken fried rice. It was very well priced ($15) and when ordering I made sure my platter came with green aji sauce (which it did) and I didn't have to order it separately. My food came out in 10 minutes well packaged. I quickly looked in the bag to make sure the sauce was there. When I got home, I realized I got no green sauce. I was devastated because this is what makes the chicken delicious! The sauce cup I saw in the bag was the salad dressing. If I wasn't 1 hour away in LI, I would've went back because I was SO sad. Everything I did get- tasted very good. The chicken had good seasoning, the fried rice was good and the salad had more than just iceberg lettuce. If I had the green sauce this would've been a 5 star review.

I've been here about five times since they opened and overall, the food is great. I've tried the lomo saltado, pollo a la brasa, and ceviche, and all were delicious. However, the chirimoya ice cream was definitely not chirimoya and wasn't good. One thing that really stands out is the sauce policy. I don't mind paying extra, but $1.50 for one small sauce is a bit much--especially since none are included with your meal. If you're Peruvian, you know sauces are essential! I still recommended this place to my friends, and they loved the lomo saltado too. But the next day, they ordered aeropuerto de pollo and were mistakenly given the aeropuerto especial (which includes shrimp). One of them is allergic to shrimp, so this could have been a very serious situation. Accuracy with orders is super important, especially when allergies are involved.

I've been to many Peruvian Restaurant and this res is by far the most beautiful. The menu was short and simple with all the best Peruvian dishes. My friends and I tried almost every thing on the menu and it was absolutely delicious, especially the chicken and best of all the price was so affordable. We will be back again.

OK, only had whole chicken to go so take with a grain of salt -but chicken incredibly salty. Then why 5 stars - lovely ambiance, nice people, seem really proud Peru heritage, a couple of books on Peru cuisine, Peru Andes displayed. The salt problem is easily sorted - generous 4 containers salsa verde. I prefer salsa blanca like Riko's same block so suggest add. Will def be back when family is in town to check out the menu-very very reasonable prices a real winner. Excellent addition to Sunnyside - best wishes!

Malo el lomo saltado y muy lento el servicio deben mejorar el sazón Muy bonito el lugar pero el plato que me tocó malo no parecía lomo saltado

I loved everything I got. The lomo saltado was delicious, and the portions of the flavorful ceviche were very generous. This is a fast CASUAL spot so keep that in mind, not a bougie city spot. I will come back again to try their chicken

Went there first time and it was a nice interior design once you walk in, the cashier was friendly and helpful showing me how the menu works. I ordered the chaufa pollo and it was very fulfilling and tasty. They give you a good portion to eat. Would definitely come again.
