Food was phenomenal and our server was amazing!!! Came here for my brother's birthday with the whole family and everyone was through the roof happy with the food quality, fantastic flavors, and great energy. I'm in the area quite a bit for work and would definitely suggest this for lunches more often. read more

In the past month they changed their menu. We did not realize they changed their menu until we visited for dinner recently. My favorite salmon dish is no more, but I tried the alternative salmon option. Salmon was cooked well, there was a flavorful sauce but it was too salty. My friends each ordered a chicken dish and found them both to be overstated as well. One of the chicken dishes didn't even have seasoning on their chicken. The service was friendly, but a little slow. read more

Five stars. I hope many in the Roseville community will support this restaurant. This spot is a hidden gem in Roseville. Came here for dinner with two friends. We ordered the Northern Lima Ceviche, chinese peruvian orange chicken, Arroz con pollo, a tamale, and the peruvian paella. It was all perfectly cooked. No piece of seafood in the paella was overcooked, I was amazed. Our server was awesome, attentive and helpful. The restaurant was immaculate, restaurant was probably half full. It should be packed every night though. Can't wait to go back. read more

We had an enjoyable time here. We really enjoyed the empanadas. They were super flavorful! The pork tamale was okay. We also really enjoyed our main entrées. I had the salmon with the cilantro rice. The salmon itself was quite rare in the center. I think this might be the default cooking method. I believe you can ask for medium well also. My husband had the beef and spaghetti and had his meat medium well. Both dishes were very flavorful and quite delicious. We finished with the churro dessert. It was a nice light dessert to share (not too much ice cream). The restrooms were clean and well-kept. The service was good and the overall ambiance was pleasant. We did have one issue with the food, but we did not bring it up with our waitress. Other than that, our experience was very good, and the one negative thing wasn't a deal breaker. We would certainly recommend this restaurant to others. read more

Came here for a date on a Wednesday evening. There were a few parties, but we were seated right away and tended to. We told the waiter that it was our first time there, so he welcomed us. It was my first time having Peruvian food, so he described what the flavor profile would be like - South American with an Asian twist. I ordered Aji de gallina, a chicken and rice dish, while my date ordered Loma Saltado, steak, rice, and veggies. We also both got pisco sours - a peruvian cocktail. I got lime and date got passionfruit. They were interesting. I didn't taste much alcohol, but I'm sure a few would sneak up on you. The egg whites in the drinks made it quite frothy as well, so an acquired taste for sure. The food was good, but very pricey. We did get free dessert - mini chocolate croissants. I had a couple times where I needed refills of water. I am glad to have tried it, but would probably try elsewhere if I were to go again. read more

Lunch time and we were craving Peruvian food. After a quick Yelp search and reading reviews, we decided to check out Chichas. Plenty of tables available and restaurant appeared very clean. Decided on the following items: 1) Chicha morada - Thought I read that it's made fresh so wanted to give it a try. Tasted good. Maybe not as strong tasting as others I've had, but still refreshing. 2) Chicharron de pollo - kiddo ordered this one. Didn't get to try it but kiddo said the flavor of the chicken was good and meat wasn't dry, but wished the exterior was crispier. 3) Pesto con lomo saltado - Hubs ordered this one and let me try the pesto pasta. I thought the pesto came through really nicely and liked that it was creamy. Hubs said good flavor with the lomo saltado. 4) Pescado a lo macho - I liked the white fish, crispy on the outside and fish was firm. Also liked the sauce and the combo of that with the garlic rice. Topped with one mussel, good amount of calamari and about 4 pieces of shrimp. 5) Anticuchos - we love beef hearts and were excited to try these. Liked that it's served with corn - different. Unfortunately, the hearts themselves were over cooked and tough. Flavor was a bit lacking as well. We were disappointed with this dish. Other than the anticuchos, we enjoyed our other dishes overall. Service was ok. Didn't really check on us after bringing our food to us read more

Excellent food. Homey environment. Professional staff. It's a different experience than the competition nearby La Huaca. Chicha is more like a family atmosphere like going to Olive Garden, casual and relaxed. La Huaca is more on the high end more formal. Both restaurants offered Peruvian cuisines that complement each other. Depends on your mood. A more casual relaxed atmosphere, Chicha is better. A more reserved formal environment then La Huaca. read more

Nice feeling atmosphere. The presentation of all dishes were colorful and beautiful. The Fried Plantains were very nice. $7.95 The Peruvian style of Paella ("arroz con mariscos") was very nice. $25.95 The Salmon Costeno was good as well. $24.95 The Papa A La Huancaina although beautiful looking was not very good. The cold potato was very dry and overall we weren't crazy about this appetizer. $12.95 The Yucas fritas were pretty good. There was a slight hint of fish odor which I suspect was due to being fried in oil where possibly fish is fried in. $10.95 The red wine of the house was very descent for the price of $8.00 The Peruvian gold pale lager European style beer Cuzquena (in a bottle, none on tap) is over priced at $9.00 The loud background music (fast paced I believe Peruvian) was both too loud as well as too fast paced for me to relax comfortably. Plus we felt rushed by our Luis our server. We'll try them again next year with being sure that we don't sit near the entrance which is where the speakers are located. read more

Our friend who is from Peru recommended this place, and we were intrigued by the last Sunday of the month buffet, so made reservations. There were several parties gathered before the restaurant opened, and the first seating was from 11:30 - 1pm. First time around, I took a small portion of each food offered, and cleaned my plate! Everything was authentic and well-prepared and presented. Second time, I ate the things that I liked the most, then got some of their bite-sized desserts. Then went back for more ceviche, even though I was full. It's just that good. The waiter we had was pretty terrible. He took forever to bring us water, and then disappeared. He never refilled our water, and we sat for at least 20 minutes after we were clearly done eating, waiting for the bill. We were not the only table of his that he neglected. He just disappeared! He did offer us 10% off cards for our next visit, but I will admit that we tipped him lower than usual (10% vs our usual 20%). When it's a buffet, your only job as a waiter is to refill our waters and get us our check, and he just didn't do that. So why does this place still get 5 stars? Because the food is just that good. Ditch that waiter and keep up the great food! :) read more

Came here with my wife who is from Peru (fairly recently). Per her, this is the best Peruvian food we've had so far. Better than the 5+ places we've tried in LA. She said it's EXACTLY the same as in Peru. She was very impressed, we will probably be back a few times this week before we head back to LA (home). Service, atmosphere and food were excellent! We ordered the rice with shrimp and also the Jalea, fried seafood. read more

100% Recommend this place! My partner and I are visiting the area for and this restaurant caught my eye while browsing for places on Yelp. If you've never had Peruvian food before, this is a must! The staff are very friendly, the food is delicious, and the restaurants decor is great. One look at the menu and you'll immediately want to order everything (we definitely wanted to!). I'm got gluten intolerant or vegetarian, but it looked like they had a very good variety/selection to cater to those dietary restrictions! The dishes we ordered tastes absolutely delicious. There was so much flavor (without being overbearing). You'll definitely get food that's anything but plain. I'm not familiar with this region, I don't know what's the average dish price, but the items on the menu aren't low cost. HOWEVER, I think they give great portions so I think you're getting your money's worth! I have no comments about drinks (we just stuck to water). Other quick comments---they do take reservations, credit card, have bathrooms, and parking wasn't hard for us to find (on a Thursday evening). TLDR, if you want delicious food, highly recommend giving this place a shot! read more

Gonna be honest up front, It is quite expensive for the service we got! Want to start with how long everything took for us to order, get to our table and even for check I had to go up front because we asked for check and nothing came by for 15 minutes. They were not that busy either it was mid-day Saturday. Restaurant is cute but not very authentic if you are looking for that. I have three stars for the food, food was delicious but service and prices were terrible! read more

This place is legit and authentic Peruvian food! Their service is amazing and every time it has been a great experience. I've tried their ceviche, arroz chaufa, and lomo saltado. It's so good that one of my post Covid meals was this and even though my taste buds weren't 100% ordering this food was the pick me up that I needed. Their chicha morada is really refreshing. They get very busy, I've done delivery and eating at the restaurant. Both have been great service. They have music on specific dates and hold a nice buffet on the last weekend of the month, you have to confirm which date. There's parking right outside, is on the Cirby and sunrise plaza. Definitely recommend! read more

It was my first time having Peruvian food and I absolutely loved the flavors. Surprisingly enough, my favorite item was the beef heart. I didn't think I would enjoy it at all but I was so wrong. I tried the "national dish" but it honestly tasted like regular food I'd cook at home. Just a mixture of meat, fries, rice, tomatoes and onions... a little random. I thought it was awesome they had a happy hour for some appetizers so I took advantage of that to try a lot of stuff. The restaurant was quiet and empty. The server was very sweet and recommended I taste their chicha morada which is a purple corn drink loaded with health benefits. I tasted a lot of pineapple in it and overall, it was refreshing. I do have to mention that it took an insane amount of time waiting for each dish to come out when it wasn't busy at all. The other hiccup I unfortunately encountered was that they tried implementing a new system/tool for giving patrons their bill and I was charged over $80 for whatever reason which took an hour to resolve. The lady was extremely stressed and apologetic but because of that mishap, the other diners that came after also experienced horrible service and wait times because she was the only one working the front. It was tiring waiting. The food was good, though. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our food. It was our first time and we ordered the Lomo Saltado and the beef really stood out. It was prepared great and was highly quality. I couldn't get enough of the rice, onions and sauce. The initial rolls we got were a bit stale, but the second round were fresh and hot. The restaurant is very colorful and had a happy feel. read more

I had been looking for a Peruvian restaurant since relocating here from a very busy, very culturally diverse city four years ago. I found no place that I would return to. We stumbled on to Chicha and I will thank my lucky stars from now on for this wonderful place. There is a specific dish that I use to tell if a Peruvian menu is authentic and Chicha NAILED it! My boyfriend, our closest neighbor, and I each ordered an appetizer, an entree, AND a desert and shared. Each of us fought for the last bite of every single dish - no joke! They tried a new beer and are now looking for a local place to purchase it for home. I can not say enough about how neat and clean the actual facility is or about the cool Peruvian like "tourist" videos they play which made our visit really fun. This is my new "take an out-of-town visitor to dinner" restaurant. read more

Chicha Peruvian Kitchen - Looking for this to have at home after trying it here. - Peruvian Near Me - Roseville, California

Came in on 2/26/23 at approx 3:30pm. Finally able to try it. I walked in with my two daughters. There was a large table full and many tables on the side that were taken there were two 4 seater tables open and available to my left, a lady that was setting them; she kept looking at me but never approached us as well as others just standing looking but not saying anything. Finally she walked over and said "this is a buffet, we are ending it at 4pm and then dinner at 5pm.." I looked at her confused, I wanted to ask so I can't sit down? Or order? She just looked at me sort of rude so I said "oaky we can come back." Didn't seem to bother her she walked away quickly like nothing. I wasn't going to wait especially with that sevice type of attitude. So I went to La Huaca in Douglas and it was perfection. From the warm welcome to the food, and everyone inside. read more

AMAZING FOOD!!! My friend recommended this restaurant and it did not disappoint! I went to Peru last year and was so excited to try Peruvian food again- it was so authentic and fresh!

Some of the best Peruvian food I've had in years ! We stopped by on the way home to San Francisco from Tahoe and absolutely loved dinner ! The highlight for me was the ceviche ! It was perfect and took me back to when I went to Peru many years ago. The lomo saltado was also amazing. Excited to come back next time we are driving home from Tahoe ! 10/10 come and support this family business and eat some delicious food ! read more

Be prepared to wait if it is busy. I think it's worth it though since there aren't many Peruvian restaurants, let alone ones that are actually good too. I ordered the beef hear anticuchos, tallarind saltado with steak, and the lomo Saltado with steak to go. The anticuchos were a good size and the meat was not too tough. It was easy to bite and chew. The potatoes were also yummy. The tallarind saltado was probably my favorite. The sauce is so good over the noodles. The steak in both entrees weren't tough at all and you could even just pull it apart with your hands. The rice was also seasoned as well. The food here is really delicious! I'd recommend trying to go for their happy hour. Unfortunately I was too hungry to take pictures of my to-go orders read more

We returned for a 2nd visit. We ordered Anconero Ceviche and Vegetales En Crema Andina. We found these two dishes to be so-so, unlike the salmon dish that I raved about in my initial review. The Aji Amarillo and Black Mint sauce on the Vegetales dish was quite unremarkable compared with the same sauce that I've had at other Peruvian restaurants. We found it difficult to get the waitress' attention for service. read more

The lime pisco sour is great - do order that Chicharron de pollo is really good - would order again The happy hour yucca fries were ok - with a bit more salt and a bit more crispiness I would get again Passionfruit pisco sour is very sweet Lomo Saltado plate with veggies and rice was really good - would order again Good service and vibe read more

This place is AMAZING! One of the best Peruvian restaurants in the area. The inside is cute and intimate. We started off with a bottle of the Intipalka Chardonnay that was crisp for all the seafood we ordered. We got the Pimental, Tiradito costa verde, and Chalaco and they were all sooo delicious. The fish was fresh and the sauces were flavorful. The chaufa was one of my favorites and didn't expect it. The lomo saltado has good quality meat. The service was attentive and helped with all of our questions. Anytime I'm in the area it's on the list to stop at! read more

Pretty good! They start the table off with some bread and what tasted like garlic butter, the bread was pretty crispy, but I like that. For a drink I got the Chicha morada (a corn drink) it was a little sweet and honestly tasted like pineapple. I thought it was tasty but if you're not into a sweeter drink I'd get something else. My husband got a Peruvian beer and he said he liked it. I got the lomo saltado, I only remembered to take a picture in the to go container. It was pretty good! My mother in law had the salmon that was pan fried and she enjoyed it. My husband ordered the Aji chicken and it was tasty. The service was overall good. My only complaint is that they don't have a changing table in their bathrooms. I had to change my baby on the floor. I know they're kid friendly because they have a kids menu. They should at least get a little table with a changing pad Update: The owner messaged me and let me know they have ordered a changing table. What a great business to take such considerations! read more

Wow so disappointed maybe they had a different cook or staff then when my father went but I came here for the lomo Saltado the waiter told me excellent choice and claimed they had the best ... when it got to me it was extremely dry! Literally no juice at all none ! The meat was so dry I came here after trying la huaca on Douglas blvd because I was told they had better lomo saltado... hell no not even close la huaca is so much better no debate la huaca is very juicy especially if you do the buffet you can put as much juice as you want on it and all you can eat for the same price as one dry dish from Chicha hopefully in the future they can put some juice with the rice and meat and not serve this disrespectfully dry dish ! Horrible a whole hour of work wasted not to mention the $12 tip I left ... besides the terribly dry dish the service was decent but the personality of the staff was great they were all kind and charismatic even tho I was lied to and told the lomo saltado was the best . Please don't serve it so dry in the future and put some juice I mean not even a drip of juice NONE not a drop I can't believe how dry it was ... did I mention the fact that the dish was dry? My goodness read more

Everything was amazing! And so flavorful. I had never had Peruvian food before and wanted to try something new. Was not disappointed.

I am not a Peruvian food connosiuer, but I like and enjoy it occasionally. You don't see Peruvian food in Sac area and Chicka showed up on yelp with good reviews. The restaurant is nicely decorated and clean (including the bathrooms). They have lunch menu for $12 and $16 with a side dish (salad or soup). We had Aji de Gallina and Lomo Saltodo de Pollo with corn cilantro soup. While everything was not bad, it really didn't wow me at all.....Definitely not good enough to impress me and make me want to come back. Again this place is not bad, but if you had a fair amount of Peruvian food then you won't be impressed. This place to me is more like 3.5 star but rounding up to 4. read more

A very cozy, cute place to go out and enjoy some Peruvian Food. Fresh taste from drinks to dessert. Cool staff. Great ambiance. Very clean. Felt a little rush at the end after almost finishing my food. Only because my bills was on the table before my dessert. Felt like eating my dessert and paying at the same time. Because we were planning to order more to go but bill arrived first so, we figured time to go. Overall, I recommend this place The food & drinks won't disappoint. Cute place to dine in. Pretty decor. Nice staff. You will be satisfied with your meal. Provecho! read more
