    Arroz Tapado
    Karla C.

    The place is cute with its Cusco, Peru vibe. Staff is amazing, sweet and attentive as well as fast. I like the vibe and appreciate the vast menu. Our food was ok. Definitely not bad food but Ai feel like I've had better peruvian dishes. The Seco de Res was soft and flavorful but our mondonguito was really tough and the fried yuca with Huancaina needed more Huancaina sauce. I liked the pieces of fruit in the chicha and the tapado was tasty but a little dry. Not knocking it away completely but would need to try their other dishes. It's about 3.7 in stars if we could do that.

    Trio Marino
    Marni M.

    Having heard about this place from a few friends, I was excited to finally try them. Parking was easy as well as getting a seat. Historically, I was told that they can't take some time with completing the orders. So I try to place our orders as soon as we could. We got the Trio Marino for dinner and the Torta de chocolate for dessert. Our waiter had told us that the entrée was big enough to share for two, but we found that it was more of a 1.5 serving size and that it would've been perfect if we got one other dish as a side. I really like the ceviche in that it was fresh and zesty. Calamari was good, but was not served with a dipping sauce. Seafood rice was also tasty but slightly under seasoned. Cake was sweet and very decadent. Overall, we had a good time. It's a cute, local, family owned establishment. Staff were nice and I would like to come again!

    I finally got the chance to try this restaurant and I'm so glad I did! The staff have great customer service, they're kind, helpful and friendly. Service was quick and food came on time. I got a Ceviche de pescado and it was delicious, very tasty, I love that this Peruvian version of ceviche mixes sweet potato, crunchy corn, soft corn, there are too many flavors and it was great. Size wise I think it's perfect, enough for 1 person or 2 if they want to share another item on the menu. I also ordered Maduros/sweet plantains that were pretty good as well. And I love guanábana so that's what I got as a drink. I definitely recommend this place, ambience is casual and feels cozy and you will find authentic Latin American flavors.

    This evening we stopped by Cuzco for dinner. It is a small place on Buford Highway with bright tablecloths and a cheery dining room. The staff are polite and happy to answer questions. I has the lomo saltado and it was very good but very filling. I was hoping to try one of the desserts but simply had no room!

    Very delicious food and amazing ceviche! We ordered both the leche de Tigre and the trio de ceviches, tallarin verde, and bistec a la parilla. Our waitress , Ingrid, provided excellent service and checked on our table several times. She brought extra plates, utensils and napkins and made sure we had everything we needed. We look forward to coming back and trying other items on their menu.

    I loved our welcoming to the restaurant by our waiter JORDY! He was very nice and helpful. Our food was very delicious from our appetizers to our dinner plates which were what was expected. We actually travelled 2 hours from Columbus to Atlanta just to eat a delicious Peruvian cuisine since we were celebrating my daughter's birthday. What made it even more special was how they made my daughter feel so happy with her being sang Happy Birthday and given a birthday slice of cake with a candle. The ambience was very nice and family Oriented and they're friendly. We were even taken a picture with the alpacas in the Photo Booth decor. I would definitely plan to go there again soon and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys Peruvian food!

    The restaurant has definitely been upgraded since the last time I visited. Some of the decor has changed, it's a step in the right direction though the drop-down ceilings still make it feel a bit unfinished. You can tell they're working on it. The food was genuinely good. It was flavorful, well-prepared, and nicely presented. It felt like care went into both the taste and the plating. The service was solid too. Our server was friendly, attentive, and professional without being overbearing. The chicha and the fresh juices were a highlight, refreshing and delicious! Just a heads-up: avoid using the QR code to pay. It wasn't working properly, so you're better off paying at the register with a card or cash.

    Was excited to come & support since in my part of town there are no Latin American restaurant options (other than Mexican). Took the family on a 1hr drive. It is a family friendly restaurant with an extensive menu and pretty good price point. (Ample free parking by the way). Was seated right away. It took a few moments for menus but it seems there is just 1 server who is taking orders clearing tables and bringing out food so bring some patience with you. Being Peruvian I am particular about the cut of meat used in my lomo saltado & I was happy they had chosen a premium tender not chewy meat. All were happy with there choices and no food was left behind. We were excited to order dessert- picarones however they ran out of it & tried for the maracuya cheesecake and they were out of that as well. Overall I would return and give it another try!!

    Food was okay. I ordered a ceviche and my husband ordered the lomo saltado. We ordered at 2:00 and my ceviche didn't come out until 3:10. As if you even had to cook a ceviche. My husband got tired of waiting and ended up telling the waiter to cancel the order. The waiter didn't even apologize for the delay. My father and my grandmother have still not received their food and it is currently 3:30. Probably won't be coming back. Very unfortunate because I love supporting Peruvian restaurants. After my father complained a few times they finally apologized and brought us a papa a la huancaina for free and my husband's food for free too. Glad they ended up taking responsibility. Update: they gave us chocoflan after we paid and apologized again. I added a star. Maybe I will come back.

    Lomo saltado

    Jordy was amazing!!! He is very knowledgeable about the menu and has a very inviting personality. The food was a 10/10, the Lomo Saltado was flavorful and tender and the Leche de Tigre was delicious. Great service, great food. Check them out!

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.

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.

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.

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.

After a previous food event didn't go as planned, I finally decided to give them a shot since they were close by. Inside: The restaurant is cozy inside, though seating is a bit tight. But don't worry, they've got tons of space on the porch! I really enjoyed the laid back vibe, perfect for catching up with friends and family. Parking: You can park at the restaurant, as there's a parking lot. Just a heads-up, finding parking may be a bit tricky during busy times. We almost didn't get in, but luckily, someone was leaving after we circled around. Service: Pricing: The pricing was great, and my meal only cost $11, which I thought was a great value for the amount of food received. Food/Drinks: The menu might not be huge, but I appreciate how straightforward it is. It's a chicken shop, and who doesn't love chicken? I opted for the 1/4 Bird Meal (white meat), which included tortillas, rice, beans, pico de gallo, and both red and green salsa. Believe me, the portion size is generous! I only got the quarter bird, and it was more than enough. The food arrived hot and fresh. The chicken itself was a bit fresh, with most of the flavor concentrated on the skin. However, if you enjoy everything together with the salsa, pico, and rice, it all balances out nicely. I didn't get a drink at first, but I saw everyone ordering the frozen margaritas. I'm not a fan of frozen margaritas, but with how much they were getting, I had to see what the hype was about. So, I ordered the margarita with Jamaica. As I mentioned, I'm not a fan of frozen drinks, but after tasting it, I could see why it was so popular! Plus, it was definitely on the strong side, so one was more than enough for me lol. I cannot conclude this review without mentioning the music. The playlist was a vibe from the time I arrived to the time I left (Think 80s r&b!) I honestly didn't want to leave off the music alone. It added so much to the ambience. If you haven't tried Pollo Primo, it's a must! If I lived closer, let's just say it would probably be one of my most frequent restaurants. Looking forward to going back!
