    Just wow! My coworkers and I visited Aji for lunch and it did not disappoint. We were a group of 8. The staff were so friendly and provided us with suggestions and did not seem to be bothered by our 500 questions. And we had a lot of questions. They brought out some canchitas, and honestly, I was not going to try them. But once it was described, I did try it and found myself not being able to stop. For my main meal, I went with the Chaufa with shrimp only. It was packed with such bold and flavorful seasonings. It can't with a delicious sauce . Lastly, met the manager, John, he was super nice and said the patio would be open soon so I'm definitely looking forward to coming back with my family.

    Fried plantains

    We love to eat here! Highly recommend the linguine huancaina with lomo, I've gotten it 4 times and it's always been good. The meat is super tender and the sauce goes perfectly with it. The plantains are the perfect amount of soft on the inside and caramelized on the outside. We got the Arepa Reina pepiada to split as an appetizer and I wish I would have got one to myself it was so good. They always let us sit wherever we want and have room to sit bigger parties as well.

    I ate here with the family and it was a great experience. It was recommended as being authentic and I would say that was spot on. Our waiter was excellent and patient as we had a few vegans in the group. The civeche was so good as an appetizer. The main dishes were tasty. This will definitely be added to the rotation.

    Just come here and get anything you want cause everything is excellent on the menu

    Friday night date night Aj Fusion. Ambience was great. Food was absolutely awesome. I highly recommend this restaurant‼

    The restaurant was a disappointment to say the least. The first person in the group to arrive, accidentally sat with the wrong group as placed her order before we even arrived, so you would think she would receive her food first right? Nope. She was actually the last person. Things from our order were missing, we had to repeatedly ask for things we were missing, multiple drinks were sent back and their soda machine wasn't functioning properly. You would think the place was packed for all this and it was not. I will say, I liked the chicken. From the comments of the others in my group, the empanada trio isn't good.

    For whatever reason, some businesses get off to a slow start. This space has been many things over the years. It's a busy shopping center, but restaurants have struggled to catch on here. I'll admit, after seeing the early reviews of Aji Fusion, I wasn't super keen on going in to check it out. But, I was in the mood for something different, and was relatively close to the area at lunchtime, so I decided to give it a try for lunch. I'm glad I did, I had a great lunch on all fronts. Value, flavor, service, ambiance, everything. I came in around 1:30, so a late lunch, but was nearly the only customer there. The waitress let me sit anywhere, and handed me both the full menu and a smaller lunch menu. Always keen for a lunch deal, I asked the waitress which of the lunch specials she liked the most, and she recommended the Chicken Saltado with fries. The special even came with a small side salad, which was a nice bonus I didn't expect. My food came out in about 15 minutes, piping hot, and looking lovely. The chicken, peppers, onions, all of it were wonderfully stir-fried. The fries were the good kind with those little bits of crispy batter on the edges. I asked for some of their green salsa for dipping (both chicken and fries). Biting in... yum! The chicken was tender and juicy. The fries were spot on. Even the small salad had crisp fresh greens. I thought this lunch was a great value for 10 bones, and it makes me want to come back for dinner soon. Hopefully, some other people will see my review and come give this place a shot, I'm glad that I did!

    Peruvian corn

    I love Peruvian food and I was super happy to find this place near home. The option of seafood, ceviche is amazing and they are super tasty! We also feel super well because of the customer service.The staff was super kind, happy, all the time worried if we needed something. When you arrive they bring free Peruvian corn that is super delicious. We ordered yuca huancaina of appetizers traditional ceviche and chicharron de pescado. I love that in this place they don't bring the check as soon they bring the food as they want us to leave. On the opposite we feel welcome and that we could stay there ordering food whenever we want. They also have a skylight in the middle of the restaurant that brings incredible light. Looking forward to go back again and try another options in the menu.

    A new peruvian restaurant opened up in greensboro. Its quite an amazement over the years of how we have become more diverse and cultured in different cuisines. Came on a Thursday morning, not busy and had fast service. I went with a friend and I ordered the Jalea de Mariscos (deep fried squid, shrimp, mussels with criolla sauce and cassava). It was good but could of been more crispy if it hadnt had lime juice over it already when served. The sauce was a bit to tangy for my taste buds. My friend had tried the lunch special chicken and rice with a choice of side of salad or soup. She chose soup and ordered a separate side of cassava fries. The cassava fries was crispy, fresh and delicous. I had some of her soup and it was good too. Tasted like green lentils soup. Next time were going to try there famous charcoal chicken.

    Fantastic lunch spot! The menu is packed with great options, and they've got a full bar if you're in the mood. I went for the street tacos and a cold beer--fresh, flavorful, and absolutely hit the spot. The staff was super friendly, and I even got to chat with the owner, who was incredibly welcoming. They mentioned awesome dinner specials and salsa dancing nights, which sound like a blast. Definitely worth a visit during lunch or anytime! 10/10, I'll be back, and I'm bringing the whole Zoom Drain crew next time!

    I ordered the veggie tacu tacu and it was so good. The food was seasoned to perfection. The veggies reminded me of stir fry veggies but sweeter. The rice and beans had a rich flavor. You can also opt for beef or seafood. Prices are fair. Our waitress was a little confused. She may have been new it took awhile to get our check also but I enjoyed this restaurant and would encourage everyone to give it a try. It is the best Peruvian food in Greensboro. I have tried all three options. This has the most variety.

    Lomo saltado
    Brandy B.

    Preface: I really don't want to hammer this place, because the person waiting our table was so sweet! And *hopefully* they get it together and come out on top - but - the truth must prevail. I imagine given the available space, we were told to sit anywhere. We were brought menus and promptly asked what we would like to drink... great! We order the empanadas to start. I ordered the lomo saltado, hubby ordered a whole chicken, and we ordered a kid's cheesy arepa. A few minutes later, our waitress came back to tell us they were out of chicken. OK. Then hubby changed his order and tried to order a side of plantains ... they were out of plantains. I asked for a drink menu and ordered a Chardonnay ... could you guess? ...They were out of the Chardonnay I ordered... whatever, right? We're committed at this point. Food was 'ok' at best - best food was the empanadas and they were "good" - but they were very empty and greasy. The best thing we had was the green jalapeño sauce. So. Yea... is Gordon Ramsey still helping restaurants in distress?

    Octopus
    Jennie N.

    Octopus was a bit overcooked so it was hard and slightly rubbery. The ceviche flight was my favorite. It came with a citrusy, spice, and mild. With different types of "chips".

    Was happy this was open when I drove by, as I've been eye balling it ever since I heard it was coming. Tonight was that night! I'm particular to Peruvian food and the best part of that food in every place is a little different. That's the spirit of Peruvian food! My specialty is always the fried rice with steak, as it was my first introduction to authentic Peruvian food from LA and a Tia from Peru. To me the green sauce was avocado forward in taste, with the perfect amount of spice! Huancaina sauce was savory and creamy Fried rice was well cooked and held the shape really well while eating it. Steak could be a little softer, but its flavor was perfect. Highly recommend this place so far. Excited I don't have to go to Embur or Inka grill for a quick, really good fried rice with steak and delicious sauce.

    The grilled octopus appetizer. Looked amazing. Unfortunately tough and chewy.

By the time I left around 6, there were people standing and waiting to be seated. The patio was open with one couple enjoying the nice weather and relative quiet of outdoors. Embur recently relocated to Smyres Place in Greensboro and the new space feels much smaller than I expected. The design reminded me of what I imagine a modern restaurant in Peru might look like. Industrial with solid wood floors, warm finishes, and a large wine display. There are around 25 to 26 tables, mostly two tops and four tops. The largest table seats six, but they will push tables together for larger groups. While I was there, a group of more than 20 came in celebrating something and they were seated quickly without disrupting the rest of the room. The small patio has outdoor seating with about 8 tables and a they have bar area with about nine comfortable seats. The menu took me a minute to understand but I ended up liking the setup. You choose your entrée, which comes with set ingredients, and then choose your protein. Each protein has a different price, so you can control the cost of your meal somewhat. Most menu items can also be made gluten free according to the menu, and vegetarian options seem easy to do. For my appetizer, I ordered the flatbread. Perfection. Rosemary, olive oil, sea salt. Crispy outside, soft inside, and so flavorful I almost ate the whole thing before my meal was served. The server came with water right away and remain attentive but not intrusive the whole time. For my entree, I ordered the Arroz Chaufa with salmon. Arroz Chaufa literally means fried rice. At first the dish seemed a bit salty to me, but once I added the green sauce that comes with it (served on the side), everything balanced out. The green sauce has very mild heat, so if you are not a fan of spicy food, that is the one I would recommend. There is a list of sauces so I assume you can customize your entree. According to my server, the other sauces bring more heat. The salmon was excellent, well seasoned but not too much, and moist. The portion was ample. I was very hungry but I had leftovers to bring home. Service was exactly what I want when dining alone. Attentive without being intrusive. I watched Netflix while I ate and enjoyed my meal without feeling rushed or bothered. The noise level is average for a busy small restaurant. Comfortable enough to relax, but if you want to talk to someone in your group a couple of seats away, you will need your outside voice. This place feels upscale without being fussy, so expected to pay more than average, but I thought it was good value for the quality and portions. I loved this restaurant and will absolutely go back. Must order: Rosemary flatbread appetizer. Tip: Ask about sauce heat before ordering. If you do not like spicy food, start with the green sauce.

I was in town for business and as in every location I travel to, I look for Peruvian food. This is in my top three. One was in Austin, TX, one in St Louis, MO and now this one in Durham, NC. I had the lunch special. It included a drink, soup and entree. Of course you have to drink Inca Cola (tastes like Squirt with Cream Soda) nice and cold. I'll have to get a Chicha Morada to take with me (which I did, and it was fruity and sweet, like a non-alcoholic sangria with cinnamon). The soup was a chicken and lentil soup with various veggies. As soon as I tasted it, I knew I was in for a treat and prayed the Aji de Gallina would be just as good. It was! Aji de Gallina is a shredded chicken dish made with Peruvian Aji amarillos, nuts, Parmesan cheese. Add in all the delicious spices Peru is known for and you have a wonderful, homey, delicious dish. I will be coming back tonight for dinner. Can't decide if I want the Seco de Res or the Lomo Saltado. Both staple dishes in Peru. Part 2 - so...I was too tired to go back for dinner. BUT, I did order in. I got the Papa à la Huancaina (so delicious, it tasted like I make at home). It is a creamy, Aji Amarillo cheese sauce over yellow potatoes. I would have liked it a little spicier, but I understand having to cater to the general public, so I'll let that slide. But the flavor was as good as you could get. I also opted to order the Seco since I thought it would travel better than the Lomo Saltado. The rice was perfect. Not soggy or spongy. Just right. Flavored with a little salt and garlic. You could eat it by itself. The Seco meat was tender. I didn't even use a knife to cut it. In fact, it pulled apart easily with a plastic fork. I would have liked a little more of the cilantro sauce to soak up in my rice. The flavors were right on, but I love cilantro...so. It even came with a Salsa Criolla (lightly pickled red onion), which is authentic and served with many Peruvian dishes. I ordered additional salsa amarillo just to taste. It's a sauce made with aji amarillo and black mint. I know it sounds weird but it's actually so tasty and fresh. My only disappointment were the beans not that they weren't good and flavorful, but they were pinto beans. I was really expecting mayacoba beans (similar to a white canary bean). Sorry, I ate it before thinking about taking pictures. All in all, I would rate this highly for those wanting to try authentic Peruvian food. My next visit to Durham I'll be trying the Ceviche and Lomo Saltado.

It's billed as Peruvian rotisserie chicken and Mexican food, but apparently the Mexican cook wasn't there so no one could fix a taco. So we tried to order from the Peruvian menu, but they didn't have the chicken on there either. At this point, we just said give us whatever you have, which turned out to be a leg quarter, fries and small salad. The chicken was very juicy and had been rubbed with a spice mixture that had garlic, cumin, salt.pepper, garlic and onion powder i think. I would have liked to have the skin cooked more crispy, but otherwise it was pretty good and the mustard-based Peruvian hot sauce was great with it. The salad was lettuce shreds with tomato and cucumber slice with a mustard and vinegar based dressing, it was ok but hard to eat with a plastic fork. The fries were just typical frozen fries, but they were hot, crisp and pretty good when doused with their hot sauce. Also had what was supposed to be a pineapple agua fresca, but it just tasted like coconut which i detest so that got returned. The plate was $7.99 which i think is a bit high for what you get. This wasn't bad, but it wouldn't cause me to go out of the way to get it again. If i were there and hungry i would go back. It's not nearly as good as the place up the street that went out of business, so i don' think this place will last long unfortunately. The man that runs it was super nice and helpful, so I wish him well.

The setup is simple: get in the single file line, look over the menu overhead while moving forward, and then place your order. The staff at the counter was very pleasant and quick to answer any questions we had. I went with the quarter chicken (dark meat) paired with the sweet potato fries and corn salad. Available beverages range from speciality fruit beverages, to bottled water, to Pepsi brand fountain drinks and of course, sweet/unsweet tea. I opted to go with just plain water. I was then given a number to place on the table of my choosing and wait for my order to be delivered. The dining room appeared clean with lots of seating. The music was a little loud for my taste, but it was probably the concrete floors and open ceilings that were more to blame for that. There is an adjoining glass window patio section that's much quieter, but it's not climate-controlled and it was pretty humid on the day of our visit, so we stayed in the main dining room and picked a table in the back. Our entrees came out in a timely fashion, and everything looked great. The chicken was moist and very tasty. The sweet potato fries could have been a little crispier in my opinion, but they tasted great. The corn salad was very refreshing.
