    Ordered for pickup. Strangest place. Very sketchy. Door was locked upon arrival. Had to knock. Just the wife at the counter, husband in the kitchen. Waited at least 20 more minutes, and for the WORST Peruvian food we have ever had! Ceviche, causa, aji de gallina, cau cau de mariscos, tallarin saltado, over $200 in food. EVERYTHING was awful. Place was empty at 8:30, not surprised. Decor looks like it's been here as long as the building has been around, green carpets, dark inside, ew.

    Let me start by saying that I'm Peruvian and love it when I can find a great hole in the wall that serves my beloved Peru's cuisine. If you also love Peruvian food, save your money and go elsewhere! This is where good quality ingredients and service goes to die. Our server was this angry girl, that wanted nothing but to be proven right. I was there with my gfs, one of which was vegetarian. I asked our server, what vegetarian options do you have? My friend is looking at the salad. She responds, "what's on the menu." I let that roll, figured she's not up for small chat. When our food arrived, all of our orders were wrong. I ordered the tiradito (ceviche) and it was missing the sides stated on the menu. My vegetarian friend ordered a sad salad with like 4 ingredients and it was missing 2 of the 4. My other friend ordered the avocado salad with chicken and there were 4 super tiny pieces of chicken that she had to dig around for. I asked our waitress about my sides, and she said my fish didn't come with any. So I asked for the menu, and showed her where it said it did. She said, oh, "that's for the ceviche - you didn't get that, you got the tiradito." Hmmm...hate to burst your bubble miss, tiradito is ceviche, it's just the style of how you cut the fish. It's the first thing I order when I go to Peru every two years. Feeling defeated by her attitude and constant rudeness, we went to pay and I asked to speak to her manager. She rolled her eyes at me, pretended to check in the back, and then came to the front and said, "yeah, he stepped out." So I asked for his name and their phone number to give him a call later. She replied, "no, I cannot give you personal information, you're asking for personal information." I told her she was extremely rude and I left. About an hour later, I tried calling to ask for her manager, and she picked up the phone, refused to let me speak to him and said, "I have no idea when he'll be back, you can try later." Spare yourself the emotional high of finding a Peruvian restaurant in Atlanta. This is definitely not worth the trip or money. There are far too many great dining choices in ATL to choose this one.

    Chicha morada and inca cola....traditional Peruvian drinks?

    The place looks old and is outdated but the food is still good. There are 1 or 2 dishes that did not please, like the shrimp cocktail. It tasted like hot sauce and over boiled shrimp but for the most part, the other dishes are yummy. The staff seems to all be related but they are generally attentive and nice. Wait time is a bit long but the portions are good, the prices are alright and it helps cure a Peruvian food craving.

    Updated menu prices.

    Way over priced, food was ok but definitely not worth what they charge. Service not the best and probably won't go back I will keep on searching for a good Peruvian restaurant.

    We came here at 845pm and it looked super sketchy getting here, but the food was awesome! I only knew a little bit of Spanish, but I knew enough to be able to communicate with the awesome server :P. It helped my friend knew Spanish though haha. I tried a traditional drink made of corn called chicha morada and it was sweet and tasted awesome. My friend got a carbonated version of it and I thought it was cool how my drink was purple. We tried the mixtos ceviches ($16) and the bistec lo pobre. Amazingggg! The ceviche was really fresh with octopus, mussels, shrimp, and calamari. It had fresh lemon, onions, and lettuce. It was excellent! I was craving ceviche too. The bistec was also awesome! The meat was a little rough, but full of flavor with every bite. I liked the egg and the rice. I could have done without the little salad on the side though since I just had some ceviche. They were playing Peruvian music that was familiar from one of my good friend's parties and they had Univision on several TVs which would be great for a soccer game. Loved this place! Only complaint was it was a little more expensive than I expected.

    Rounded up 3.5 stars. This place was a surprise hole in the wall (well, HITW for me). It's not particularly pleasant from the outside and the interior is not the most appealing. It's not dirty but it is dated. You first walk in to a small bar with a few TVs. I think they get a lot of night business b/c they also had some music performance stuff advertised. The inside of the restaurant can hold about 40-50ish. The owner was a kind and helpful Peruvian lady. I think she was working by herself (waiting and cooking) b/c we didn't hear a single voice the time we were there. This also meant the service was a little slow but we weren't in a hurry that day. We got the Ceviche con pescado ($14), arroz con mariscos ($16), bistec a la parilla ($13), jalea mixta especial ($30). Everything was really good and the portions were decent but I will say the prices are a little too high. I think they can be lower. Nothing we ordered tasted bad or disappointing. Overall, it's a great tasting restaurant but you'll have to absorb the sticker shock.

    Front menu-- kinda hard to see.

    Peruvian food in Atlanta?! There aren't many places so I YELPED it and Contigo Peru popped up. My friend and I had plans today and were in the mood to try Peruvian food since neither of us has had it before. As we pulled into the parking lot, there was only one car parked there. We were a bit alarmed since it was around 12 p.m. for lunch time. As expected, we entered and the place was pretty empty besides one occupied table. The two workers in the front greeted us in Spanish and were very welcoming. We were seated, menus given, and water brought out. The ambient was pretty chill, but could've been more "festive" if there had been more customers. FOOD: My friend and I concluded seafood is the specialty here. I mean, we saw it advertised under the restaurant sign walking in. The menu is pretty extensive with items such as: ceviche, tacos, quesadillas, rice entrees, battered/fried seafood, etc. We stayed away from the "fried" stuff although our waiter suggested ONLY fried items/entrees for us to try. We ended up getting rice entrees that focused on Peruvian style marination/spices. My friend ordered #78 - Arroz con Mariscos (Peruvian style stir-fried seafood with rice) and I ordered #79 - Picante de Mariscos (Mild saucy stir-fried seafood with rice). Both entrees consisted a lot of vegetables, shrimp, squid, octopus, and a few mussels. It did take a good while before our entrees came out and it wasn't even busy so... yeah. We did doubted the freshness of the seafood due to how empty it was, but they tasted fine. My friend joked around and said they must have did a quick run to the ocean to catch some seafood (haha). The food was OKAY. Not something I would crave personally, but it was very tasteful. It was also different from anything I have tried before. Portion was plentiful as we both did not finished everything. They displayed it well and looked appetizing. I really wanted to try the ceviche, but will save that for next time. That's IF we don't get stomach aches or what not after this first visit. Just kidding! All in all, not a shabby place for Peruvian food. Definitely try it out!

    Appetizers: Causa de pollo, Ceviche carretillero (all dishes were recommended by our server)…read more - Causa de pollo was like an elevated chicken salad, but the hot sauce made it unique. They said it was from peppers grown by a local farm, and the sauce was different from a typical hot sauce - it was flavorful, not just spice and salt and vinegar. - Ceviche had some roasted corn kernels and fried squid on top which was a nice textural constant. Was enough spice to give it a bit of heat but not too much, so it would be a crowd pleaser imo Entrees: Arroz con mariscos, Pollo a la brasa - seafood rice. My wife liked this more than paella, and we've had paella several times including a couple times in Spain. They also removed the shrimp shells and head (although they put the head back on for plating), which was a nice touch so you don't have to peel it yourself. - pollo a la brasa was cooked with crispy skin but the meat stayed soft. They also had some delicious sauces including a peanut sauce that paired really well with the chicken. Drink: Chicha morada - perfect balance of spiced and sweet Lots of interesting new flavors and delicious food

The speed was super quick from sitting down to leaving so if that's what you're after then this could be a great option for you, for us however, we just felt rushed. From sitting down to signing the check it was 40 minutes and that's with an appetizer included. Unfortunately the food just wasn't what we were looking for. While I did provide a unique taste, neither of us really enjoyed our food and left wanting something different. We both had different versions of the saltado and shared the plantains. The saltado was ok and the plantains seemed a little undercooked. All in all, I think if you're after Peruvian flavors and have a dish in mind then the Freakin Incan could be a great stop for you, but it just seemed to miss the mark for us.

For starters, we ordered the yucca fries-perfectly crispy and served with huancaína sauce. We always ask for an extra yellow dip to go with them (not sure what it's called, but trust me, it's so good). For mains, we went with the Lomo Saltado and Pollo Frito. The Lomo Saltado is a classic beef tenderloin stir-fry with house fries, tomatoes, red onion, and aji panca, served over steamed rice with a side salad. The Pollo Frito comes with marinated 4-piece fried chicken, house-cut fries, aji limo hot honey, side salad, and fresh lime. I love that both entrées include a salad.

It was our first time here and he explained their background and what his favorites were on the menu. We for sure wanted to try the paella, so went ahead and ordered that first, with the carretillero ceviche, mixed empanadas (chicken and beef) and patatas bravos to start. The ceviche was delicious and fresh. Loved the fried calamari and all the toppings it was served with. The empanadas were also delicious and was served with a very spicy sauce! The patatas braves had a nice, smoky flavor. Now for entree, I ordered the veggie chaufa. Our server may have been a little biased as he preferred the Peruvian side of the menu, more so than the Cuban side. My dish was easily good for 2-3 people. It had tons of veggies and scrambled egg, plus served with a side of fried plantains. Our group ordered a bunch of other dishes and tried some of them. The churrasco steak was a little chewy but loved the chimichurri it was served with. The parrillada de mariscos was so good too, and my personal fave was the grilled octopus! Personally, I would opt for this instead of the valenciana paella. You essentially get the same types of seafood. I love that we got to dine at this hidden gem! We truly enjoyed our experience and will be back for sure.
