I have tried other Peruvian restaurants, but I prefer Ceviche 19 above them all because the ceviche is really fresh, the restaurant is very clean and the I love the presentation and taste of the food. I also love the service we receive. We are regulars now, and this place is one of our favorite places to dine. read more

Didnt have chance to dine in but we wanted to try their desserts so we stopped by and got 3 desserts. Total was $28 and the chocolate cake was not it. It's still partial frozen and doesnt taste good. The ice cream is 10/10, im not Peruvian but it tastes so good! The cookies are okay 8/10 to me! We'll def come back for main dishes read more

Easily the best Peruvian meals I've had! I ordered the Lomo Fusion, and it was absolutely incredible. The meat was tender and flavorful, the ingredients were fresh, and every bite was packed with flavor. I'll definitely be back! read more

We've traveled to many countries and Peruvian food is by far the best we've ever eaten. We drove all the way from Hesperia to Anaheim to try this place and it did not disappoint. The ceviche was amazing, Lomo Saltado tasted just like it did in Lima and the Causa was delicious! Looking forward to our next visit to sample other options off that tasty menu YUM!!! read more

La comida siempre sale fresca, y caliente. Es uno de los mejores restaurantes peruanos I love going to Ceviche 19, the food is always fresh and hot, it's one of my favorite peruvian restaurant. Also very friendly servers read more

Food is flavorful (except for the overcook, dried up meats) service attentive but pricey for the location. For their Saltado, beef and chicken were overcooked. Thank goodness for the onions, tomatoes and fries, and the sauce on the rice, which made the dish edible. Aji sauce was good. For their $23 price point, you could go to a restaurant elsewhere. read more

My coworkers and I visited this restaurant for the first time for a team lunch. It was conveniently located near our workplace, which saved us time. Some of us weren't sure what to order, so we looked through Yelp review photos and chose dishes that looked delicious. I ordered Lomo Saltado (with white rice), and I was very pleased with the generous portions of beef and large onion pieces. The sauce was flavorful and paired perfectly with the beef and rice. My seven coworkers also enjoyed their meals, and we all agreed that we'd love to bring our families here to introduce them to this delicious food. read more

The mixed seafood ceviche had a wonderfully bright and tangy lime flavor. I really liked the lomo saltado as a hearty main dish with tender beef and crispy fries. read more

The ceviche was too fishy I didn't like it. The esthetic was cute and drinks were ok.

The ceviche was good. The sweet potato was too hard. The tallarín a La huancaina con lomo was lacking flavor. The mixed fried rice had an oyster sauce on it that gave it a sweet taste. Def not as expected. The waiter seemed annoyed when I called him over for aji and napkins. Literally ripping my napkin to share with my mom. The picarones were good but overall for a bill of $98 not worth it I'd rather go to Aji Limon or Peruvian rotisserie in HB read more

Cute restaurant, wonderful service. But on to the part that matters, the food. It was a very hot day. I wanted something cool and refreshing and their ceviche mixto delivered that and then some. The flavors of the "leche de Tigre" were outstanding! It reminded me of a tom kha broth. It was tangy, a bit spicy, and perfectly balanced. I am so devastated that I live hours away because this would be my usual spot for that dish. 10/10 We also got two other plates, arroz con mariscos which I'd rate a 7.5/10. The portion size was incredible with tons of seafood. I just found the sauce to be a bit too rich for my liking. When mixed with rice it levels out the saltiness and has a really nice flavor. My boyfriend got the Ají de gallina (his absolute favorite dish) and we thought it was great. 8/10. And it actually tasted better the next day once the flavors settled in. And last but not least, that green salsa... if you like spice do yourself a favor and get that green sauce. That sauce is so deliciously good. Our waiter hooked us up with it too, which we were very thankful. Overall 9/10, I'll be back next time I'm in town. read more

I was in Long Beach and I was hungry so I hopped on yelp and decided to look for a Peruvian place that I've never been to. Ceviche 19 caught my eye with its ratings and the exquisite pictures, so I decided to place an order on the phone. I ordered a leche de Tigre, arroz con mariscos and a jalea. Everything smelled delicious, paid my bill, got home and I was getting ready to eat until to my surprise 2 shrimps on the jalea were not cleaned It ruined the plate, and my family member decided to skip and I had to share the arroz con mariscos with them. I get it, it's a human error but to any of you who are ordering take out thru the phone please ensure to check that your shrimps, etc. are cleaned and edible. Other than that the Leche de Tigre was delicious. Not sure if I'll come back due to distance and bad experience from the dirty shrimp, but maybe hopefully in the future I can change my mind but until then. Check your order! read more

I went there a week ago with my family--specifically to celebrate my daughter-in-law's graduation--and honestly, we didn't like it at all; plus, it was very expensive. I understand they need to make a profit, but not like this--not with bad food. read more

Stopped cuz they have anticuchos . Anticuchos was very tasty. Hard to find anticuchos of beef heart in Orange County! :) Lomo Saltado was cooked to perfection ! We will come back! read more

Food is amazing. The ceviche is the best all around. I am Peruvian so I know the food. The Picarones are perfectly cooked, crispy outside and tender inside. The spicy sauces were delicious. The customer service is great! Highly recommended read more

First time having Peruvian in OC. Delightfully surprised. We've had a lot of great meals at El Polla Inka and El Rocotto, but we're a little worried about the quality of a Peruvian place in OC. No need to worry. Ceviche 19 had great tasting food in a very nice and cozy restaurant. The namesake Ceviche was spot on, with plenty of shrimp scallops and fish in the dish. We had the lomo saltado and the saltado de camarones along with a shrimp pasta dish that I hadn't had before but was fantastic! Sorry you'll need to look the name up on the menu.... Service was gracious but could have been a little more attentive. To be fair it was one poor guy and he was doing his best, but they needed another server. In any case, definitely coming back if in the area. Highly recommended. read more

Came here with a Peruvian friend, and I myself spent 2 weeks in Peru trying out different local dishes all over the country 2 years ago. Needless to say, we have a high bar when it comes to Peruvian food. We ordered a ceviche merkdo, saltado mixto, choco lucuma, and chicha morada. The choco lucuma (chocolate cake with lucuma ice cream) was our favorite. The ceviche was decent. The saltado mixto had very few pieces of beef, chicken, and shrimp. The menu is Peruvian for sure; I saw and tried most of these dishes when I was in Peru. But the execution is lacking. I've enjoyed ceviche and other Peruvian dishes at other local Peruvian restaurants. There was plenty of parking when we went for lunch. Service was okay. read more

Ceviche 19 - Ceviche Merk Do Saltado mixto Chicha Morada - Peruvian Near Me - Anaheim, California

I have to start by saying that the owner of this place should be very grateful to the staff working under these conditions; the heat here is inhumane. You can see the workers melting with sweat as they try to give their best. If you plan to go there, you need to know that the heat will hit you hard; there is no air conditioning, and it is simply unbearable--you'll feel like you're eating in the blazing sun or in hell itself. We went to this place to enjoy the good food--as it had been recommended by friends--but we couldn't stay for more than 10 minutes. The service was good; a waiter kindly came over after we were seated and brought us ice water, which we really appreciated because the heat inside was unbearable. We were looking at the menu to decide what to order, but we started sweating--and sweating more and more. We could hear people at nearby tables complaining to the waiters about the heat. So, we decided to place our order to go and wait outside while the food was being prepared. The food is good and the service from the waitstaff is excellent, but you simply can't enjoy any of that when the place is in such terrible condition. In fact, I don't think they should be open to the public if they can't provide a suitable and safe environment for customers; we weren't the only ones who got up and left because of the unbearable heat. We noticed other people who, upon seeing how hot it was inside, chose to go home rather than even put their names on the waiting list. I also saw a pregnant woman at another table start to feel unwell--to the point where they had to leave as well. I'm serious: the heat inside is worse than it is outside--the "feels-like" temperature can exceed 100 degrees--so that's something to consider if you plan on visiting. read more

The food was delicious and one of the top Peruvian restaurants that we had dined. Inside is small but cozy and the service is excellent. I had the Ceviche Classico which was amazing! Very fresh and well made with the right amount of spice!! Highly recommend!! read more

Just walking in the food smells amazing... Tasted and looked just as good, great service, I will definitely be going back.

Heard some good things about this restaurant. My family and I came to try it last night but we got there at 8pm and they take last orders at 7:45pm, which was fine we understood they were closing . We ended coming back the next day for dinner. There was a waiting list and they told us it would be around 30-45 minutes. They took my name and phone number and they would call me when ready. We didn't want to wait 45 minutes sitting down so we walked around the shopping center there. It was (550pm) After 50 minutes of waiting and no call from them, I went ahead and called (6:40pm). The lady that answered the phone said that she had called us 30 minutes ago (that would be 6:10pm) and that it went straight to voicemail. I told her I never received a call and why would they just call once and not leave a voicemail at least! She just said they called once, it went straight to voicemail and they couldn't call again because it was a little busy there until just now (6:40pm) when it has died down. I received two calls from my eight year old sons friends so it could've been that one of those times she may have called and it went straight to voicemail because she called at the same time they did, BUT what restaurant only calls you once (not even hearing a ring) goes straight to voicemail and doesn't try again or doesn't leave you a a message. If she did call at 6:10pm, like she stated, if I at least got a voicemail. I could've had time to call back and at least get my reservation and eat inside. Instead we waited almost an hour for NOTHING!!! This is so unprofessional and I will never come to this restaurant again or recommend it to my fellow community or Peruvian community!! Very Disappointed!! read more

Definitely would come back! Had ceviche 19 and pulpo de olivo. Both were amazing!! Next time try the lamb. Passion cocktail was good as well. Pinot grigio with passion fruit syrup read more

Decent parking Nice restaurant, they put forward the effort to make it nice. Gentlemen was professional, personable, knowledgeable, polite. Atmosphere was for friends, date, family gathering. Comfortable but nice. Chicha jar was thin necked thus the same price as if you ordered individual glasses or actually 1/2 a glass shy so heads up, unless they get other style jarras, I'd go for ordering by the glass. Taste? Spot on. Some do it too bland, some too sweet... this place does it perfectly like it should be. Thank you. Yuca. I usually pass on the pairing with dipping sauce and choose to try a variety because sadly most Peruvian restaurants do not put effort in their sauce. This place however, bravo, there's flavor! So good! What a pleasant surprise. Thank you. We shared causa sampler. My Peruvian husband wasn't a fan but I thought the shrimp one was good. Only one shrimp on top maybe because it was just a sampler. If actual shrimp one has lots of shrimp inside the bravo. Go for it! The pulpo one was not good. Neither of us liked it. The chicken was decent. Husband got passion fruit drink. Was ok. And the chupe de pescado and I got chupe de camaron. Thank you for making these well. They were missing the special cheese which would have made it the perfect dish but still was great and filling and you did Peruvian Yuca and chupe well. Thank you. We've already recommended you to many ppl at the hotel and our co workers and those we know who travel to your area. read more

Food is absolutely amazing you can not fail with the limo mixto the flavors are just mind blowing! The ceviche 19 has great flavor as well! Eli helped us and he was just so attentive and friendly we will 100% be back! Great date night location! read more

My wife is Peruvian so I've eaten at many Peruvian restaurants in CA and Peru. Family members have been raving about this restaurant so we finally ventured out to give it a try. It's located in an older strip mall and, while the exterior is nondescript, the interior is small and modern. Based on the comments of those recommending Ceviche 19 I was envisioning a larger, swankier restaurant but I found it to be comfortably cozy and casual. We definitely arrived overdressed which would be the case for anything more than jeans. Our well-groomed, attentive waiter provided excellent service. We were first brought a small bowl of conchita to nibble on while we looked over the menu. We ordered a calamari appetizer to share and I ordered the chauffa; fried rice with small pieces of egg, beef, and diced green onion mixed with soy sauce. I also ordered chicha to drink. The calamari was too chewy for me. My wife agreed but liked it far more than I did. I only ate two pieces. Oddly our main dishes arrived within a minute of our appetizer. The chauffa was superb - the smokey taste made the dish quite delicious. I was certain I'd end up taking some of this large portion home but I ended up eating every bite. My chicha was a bit disappointing. I thought the flavor of this unique purple corn drink was too weak and watery. This is definitely one of the better Peruvian restaurants in the area, not my favorite, but it certainly showcases the best in Peruvian dishes. read more

Not a fan. I was disappointed because the huancaina and aji verde didn't taste authentic like I've had before.

Words cannot describe how delicious the food was today. Me and my husband are in town for the week and we love to explore different Peruvian food spots and we both were left speechless.... I mean the food was so tasty we both had the Lomo Saltado steak and it was so tender and flavorful it didn't last 10 minutes on the table my husband devoured his. We have to say this is by far our Number 1 favorite Peruvian spot ever!!! Also amazing customer service 100000000/10 read more

DELICIOUS! Ceviche 19 is located in a small strip mall with plenty of parking. The decor is fresh, clean, & cute with a handful of booths and free standing tables. Service was quick and friendly. I came to eat with a friend from Peru so she did most of the ordering. We got the ceviche mixto to start and it was SO SO TASTY. There was a variety of seafood and the flavors were outstanding. Next up was as the causa de Camerones. This was something I've never experienced before, but it was good! Thin layer of mashed sweet potato over tons of fresh shrimp im a mayo based sauce and avocado. Served with plantain chips. Last dish of the day was the steak Lomo Saltado. This was one of the most flavorful lomo saltados I've ever had! The steak had a great smoked wok flavor and the sauce was perfectly seasoned. I'm currently debating if I should eat here again today while typing up this review. If you had ever hesitation about trying this place out, don't. The flavors will not disappoint! read more

Great service and even better food!! I drive out of my way just to come here! The place is also very clean and food is well presented.

We went for lunch . Within an hour the entire restaurant filled up ! They have booths , tables and one large table that can seat 10 !! They also have bar style seating . We ordered the grilled octopus for starter . It was so delicious and came to the table fajita style with some vegetables! My husband commented to bad there isn't any bread to mop up the sizzling grill pan !! lol We also ordered ceviche classic style , since it was lunch we shared both items we ordered ! I didn't get pictures of the food sadly . Everything was plated and served beautifully!! My husband tried the Peruvian beer and I had a sangria . The octopus and ceviche were both delicious and I would definitely go back to order again ! My only suggestion is maybe serving a steak knife with the grilled octopus or asking the chef to slice before it comes to the table . The restaurant is pretty, shades of blue !! Flowers on each table too ! I was checking out other tables orders , everything looks so good !!!!! read more
