So this was actually my second time at Naori, and I brought my brother and my childhood best friend…read moreTatiana because I wanted her to experience it too. I had a great time the first time, and yep it's still that girl. Let's talk about the vibe real quick. The ambiance is everything. Modern, and just really well put together. From the furniture textures to the contrast in colors it all feels super intentional but still chill. Like, they knew what they were doing when they designed this place. 10/10 on the setting alone. Let's get down to the items shall we? What We Had Drinks ____________________ + Naori Signature Drink ($15) : 8.4/10 This one's made with Pisco Berries and Triple Sec. It's a layered, fruity cocktail that's a little more complex. Personally, I prefer the Pisco Sour it's cleaner and more balanced for my taste. But if you like citrusy and berry-forward drinks, you might love this one. Again, these are my reviews based on my taste buds. You might feel differently and that's ok honey. + Espresso Martini ($16) : 9/10 Strong, chocolatey, and gets the job done. + Lychee Martini ($16) : 8.6/10 Clean and balanced. Not too sweet, just smooth and refreshing + Pisco Sour ($16) : 10/10 My fave. Fruity, with this nice cold foam on top. Pretty sure there were peach or passionfruit notes in there. So good. * Shots - We also did a round (Don Julio, I think), and it kept the vibe going. Appetizers/Entrees __________________ +Nikkei Tiradito ($19) : 10/10 Thin tuna slices with a shouyu sauce that had a little citrusy kick. I could've had another plate just for myself. +Grilled Octopus ($20) : 8.4/10 This was good! Cooked well, had a nice char. Not my favorite thing on the table, but still strong comes with Peruvian corn and potato. +Arroz Chaufa Special ($24) : 10/10 Babyyy this dish was everything. Wok-fried rice, perfectly seasoned. That filet was so tender, and the shrimp just brought it all together. Easy standing ovation for me. * Dessert - I honestly can't remember what we ordered for dessert, but it was decent. Nothing crazy. I'd give it a 7/10. Overall Experience: 10/10 Customer Service: 10/10 Would I Be Back? Without a doubt. I even told my mom about this place and I think she went a couple months ago! This establishment has been Tamied™.

Once we arrived I realized we have been here before... It's been about 10 years and my memory from back then was good food and nice atmosphere. And now we're back.... a Friday night and they have some outside tables available (if you wanted some quieter atmosphere) because inside was dinner drinking and karaoke... we had a table good for hubby and I to watch. There was a large group (a party of some sorts) and a lot of great singers; and so many people jumped up to dance along with many of the songs. We tried a couple of varieties of the peruvian classic drink, Pisco Sour... once traditional and one with a mango twist. They were very good (not my thing but very good for what they are). We shared one of their ceviches (amazing) I ordered Tacu Taco with chicken and my husband got some seafood dish; I can't remember what it was called but I know we could've shared one dish since the servings are huge. We can't wait to return !

Just tried Paradero 50 and honestly what a hidden gem…read more It was such a nice surprise to find this place in the middle of nowhere super tucked away and easy to miss since there is no flag outside but once you are in it feels like you just walked into your aunt's kitchen The food tasted completely homemade fresh and full of flavor We had the pollo a la brasa, chaufa salad and fries and everything was on point You can tell it is made with care. The chef even came outside to greet us and asked how everything was which made the experience feel even more special The service was fast and the ambiance was perfect not too loud and not too quiet. We also grabbed a mazamora Morada and some arroz con leche to go because you can never go wrong with dessert for later If you are craving real comforting Peruvian food this spot is 100 percent worth finding I will definitely be back, to try their desayuno lurin on the weekends

It's located in a very unassuming spot, tucked into a parking lot in a slightly industrial area, but don't let that fool you. Inside, you'll find something special. What stood out even more was the owner/manager, who went to great lengths to make us feel welcome. He took the time to explain the menu and recommend the best choices for both food and drinks, making the whole experience feel personal and effortless. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and combined with the authenticity of the food, it makes for a memorable visit. Definitely worth seeking out.

I made explicitly clear that I wanted Mixed seafood with Fish, ended up with not what I ordered.. I called concerning the error, as I live far away and they dont offer anything but attitude. If the owners record there calls please check. Extremely disappointed with how I was treated and the person just hung up. Update, the owner has called me, and promised to make things right. That they dont like to hear when customers are mistreated. There family owned business has built a reputation on good customer service. I appreciate the owner caring enough to contact me and listen to me.

We stopped in here one night as we hadn't made dinner, and were out running errands most of the…read moreafternoon, it was a last minute call to come on here. The restaurant was empty when we arrived. Since it was our first time, we needed a moment to look over the menu, as we stood in line, we were asked 3 times if we knew what we wanted. Of course, I didn't, but then started to feel rushed and had to just pick something. (The staff here seemed annoyed to be working.) We both ordered and then sat, waited about 10 min before the food was ready. The food came out, and everything looked ok. The steak and shrimp option I had was good, steak was seasoned well, and looked how I liked it. The boneless chicken Jason has was so bland, and dried out he didn't even finish it. The chicken was very thin, which I felt was the reason it was dry, unfortunately he hated everything lol. I thought it was ok, however, I can only give 3 stars because I didn't feel welcomed, staff were not friendly. Restaurant was clean from what I saw, the drinks stations were out of service for the night, so I assume fountain drinks were not being served, only bottle and can options.

I ordered the steak lomo saltado, which comes with two sides--I chose white rice and French fries. Unfortunately, when I got home, I realized the fries were missing and had been replaced with corn without any notice or explanation. On top of that, for the price of the meal, I expected a more generous portion of steak. The serving was so small that it was barely enough for my child, let alone enough to share. Overall, between the missing item and the skimpy portion, it just wasn't worth it. I won't be returning.

I HATE eating at the mall and only do so when I must. I was starving after a shopping trip and decided to try my chances at the food court. A BLESSING is finding relatively new Peruvian spot within the court! This is very rare and I had to try it. It's added to my list of acceptable mall food! They went beyond my expectations for mall food. You will not see food at the counter for display. They make everything FRESH TO ORDER. I tried my favorite lomo saltado and it was the best decision I could've made at this food court! The chicha morada is AUTHENTIC tasting! Sometimes restaurants use powdered flavoring that you can tell apart from the homemade stuff but this one was the real deal. I believe it was the owner that took my order and he was super friendly and nice. I think it was his customer service appeal that made me make the final decision to try them out. There may be a slight language limitation so please do be kind and if you speak Spanish opt to speak Spanish for better communication. Overall super satisfied I stopped here at the mall for food!! They've been there for about a year and can't believe I hadn't run into them earlier!

My friend Kalo is from Peru and on one of his visits to my place he noticed this restaurant. He…read moreasked if it was any good, but I had never been to it, so he offered to take me there. Which is awesome because I would never have known what to order. He did the ordering for both of us, and he ordered too much, but it was all quite good. We started with potatoes in a cheese sauce and ceviche. The potatoes were amazing. I've never tasted anything quite like them. The ceviche was good. Next we had something that was veggies, white rice and French fries in a brown gravy with beef. Also quite tasty. Then fried rice with various types of meat and seafood mixed in. I tried it and it was good, but by this time I was pretty full, so I only tasted it. I'll have the rest for lunch tomorrow. We drank Inca Kola, which is very popular in Peru, although now it's apparently made by Coke, but still, quite tasty. They have a diet version, but I don't touch artificial sweeteners. We passed on dessert as I had eaten too much already. I don't have anything bad to say about this place. The service was good, the food was good, the restaurant was clean. I can't comment on the prices because I honestly didn't pay any attention since I wasn't paying for the meal (thank you, Kalo), but he didn't say anything bad about the prices. All-in-all it was a good restaurant and certainly deserving of four stars. And one to add to my list of do-overs.

Kitchen is open on the other side of the dining room. Lots of food options on the menu from meats to seafood, pasta to ceviche and soups. My friend and I were starving and wanted to try everything but we decided to order some signature dishes. Ceviche is a must for me when going to Peruvian restaurants. The fish can be upgraded to corvina fish if you choose. The sauce is tangy and refreshing. Came with fresh onions and a piece of sweet potato. Nice portion. The Jalea is a big platter of fried mixed seafood. The breading was seasoned and delicious. The sauce it came with had onions in it which I loved! It was a little too fried for me but not burnt so it was all good. The steak and pesto pasta was hearty. The steak was grilled to medium rare very nicely and the pasta was al dente with plenty of sauce. Will be coming back soon!

I ordered a pisco sour that was perfectly made. My appetizer was a fish and shrimp ceviche: the leche de Tigre was soooo fresh and well balanced, I absolutely loved it. Main course I was pleasantly surprised to see there was an option of a plate with half tallarines verdes and half lomo saltado (the menu says "steak" and you can choose how you'd want it); I've never seen this kind of split-a-plate before so I thought I'd be perfect because you get to try two things, it's a great value. Both the tallarines and the lomo were flavorful. I just wished there was some way to keep the juices from the lomo away from the tallarines because at the bottom of the plate the pasta tasted like lomo, not like pesto hahaha -still, yummy-. Against by best judgement and my capacity I ordered dessert and the dulce de leche was a little too sweet for me (I couldn't finish it) but I ordered a coffee too, that helped. The staff was on point; I loved they were always checking on us (and the place was almost full) and I also noticed they use intercoms so they are always making each other aware of what a table needs. The owner (or manager, not sure) is very sweet and greeting all customers. The bar service seems to be tons of fun, I noticed a few couples having drinks and enjoying the evening. The music was 80s-90s: I truly enjoyed it. I definitely will be coming back. I recommend!

As far as food, they have a Combo menu that includes a list of about 15 different dishes and you get to choose 3 for $20. This combo menu is available until 7 pm. In addition to their large list of traditional Peruvian dishes, they have a separate menu for Chifa (Chinese-peruvian fusion) dishes, as well as, sushi rolls. All of the dishes we tried were very well prepared and the restaurant atmosphere was casual and relaxed. Nice choice if you are looking for traditional peruvian food.
