    Pot roast
    Elizabeth S.

    Terrific little place. Service was fantastic, friendly and fast. We had the potential to roast and baby beef. Tender and flavorful. Maduro were cooked perfectly. If we are even back in Ft Myers definitely eat here again .

    Giant red snapper. Yummy

    Good day. Made good money at work plus $5k in Bitcoin so felt in the mood for something special. This restaurant was across the street and did not disappoint the fish did not disappoint. The tamale was different but good

    Chicharron de Calamares
    Jason F.

    I stopped by here yesterday for dinner. Our family had found el patio on Yelp and after looking at the menu decided it would be a great place to eat. We decided to place the order through the Yelp app via Grubhub and I ordered a Aji de Gallina while my wife went with the Chicharron de Calamares and my father in law the Ensalada de la Casa. We received confirmation that our food would be ready in 15-35 minutes and it was ready whenever my father in law went in to grab it right around the 35 minute mark. Whenever we got the food home, we all dug in. My dish is what you would expect from an Aji de Gallina as is was served with boiled potatoes and white rice, and garnished with black olives and a slice of hard-boiled egg. As for the taste itself, it was decent. The sauce had a mild flavor to it and my favorite part of it was the texture from the nuts. Due to the sauce everything sort of tasted the same and by the time I was done with my portion I was still wanting more food. My wife thought her calamari was decent. With that being said, it's the first time I have ever see her not finish all of the calamari on her plate. Last but not least was my father in laws salad which unfortunately came without any dressing. The bottom line for me is that I probably wouldn't stop by here again in the future. While there was nothing wrong with our food per se and I thought that the Aji de Gallina was pleasant, I do think that there is better food out there.

    Tamales

    We love Peruvian food and found this gem in Cape Coral. The ambiance is very homey and welcoming. The staff is very pleasant and polite. We had a great experience with some delicious food. The ceviche was a perfect blend of flavors with great acidity and the fresh herbs. Lomo saltado was just amazing and flavorful. The tamales was very well seasoned and delicious. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to try the other dishes and appetizers.

    Bistec Encebollado (I think this is what I ordered)

    I went to Peru a month ago so I have been craving food since. While my parents were out at a doctors appointment I ordered from El Patio on Grubhub. The food was delicious. It was still hot when it arrived too. The steak came with two sides which I picked rice and salad. It was very filling. The potato appetizer was good too but I was full so I only had a couple bites. I saved the dessert for later. It was also yummy! I would definitely order from them again.

    Pescado a lo Macho / Camarones (Shrimp and yellow sauce)

    One of our favorite restaurants we tried during our stay. Great service, friendly/helpful staff, and very clean restaurant. We had Pescado A Lo Macho/Camarones (Shrimp in a delicious yellow sauce) and Tacu Tacu Ca=on Salgado De Maris (Seafood Mix over white bean/rice in a sweet soy sauce). Both dishes were fantastic. We had for dessert, Flan De Coco (Coconut Flan) which was very rich in flavor and Picarones (Fried donuts) in a homemade honey sauce with cinnamon sprinkled on . Both very good and all desserts were made in-house. Every dish was tasty and delicious. We will definitely try again.

    10/10 great flavor, lots of food for the price.  The ceviche was delicious!

    10/10 great flavor, good service and lively ambiance! Try the Peruvian beer - Cusqueña Golden Lager

    OMG.....what a fabulous find !! It's a small place, on Pondella Rd. in North Fort Myers, just off…read moreHwy 41. Walking in the restaurant smells marvelous..... not a spicy smell, but more a blend of savory. The table had white paper and was decorated for Valentine's Day !! Nice touch. First time for us.... They were not very crowded for lunch and we were seated right away. Victor approached us to take our drink order. What a friendly, nice guy. I ordered the Red Sangria, ($15.00) in a big wine glass which was very tasty. I then ordered the Pulpo Al Olivo from the "starters" menu, with a side of Tostones. (Which was Octopus, sliced avocado & a terrific Kalamata Olive cream sauce. The octopus was tender and piled on slices of avocado. They didn't skim on the avocado at all. Wasn't sure why the club crackers were added to the plate. I pushed them aside at first, but then used them as they were intended..... OMG..... the crackers added a slight buttery, savory taste to compliment the Kalamata sauce. And, it was extremely tasty and plentiful. Definitely would order this again !!! My husband ordered Tallarin Huancaina Con Savana de Lomo. My best interpretation was ~ skirt steak on pasta with a spicy cream sauce !! He LOVED it !! We asked.... they provided !! We were able to buy a 16oz jar of the delicious Huanciana sauce to take home. YES...... YES..... highly recommended and we will be back again !!!

    We drove to North Fort Myers for an early Sunday dinner. The parking lot gave an impression that it…read morewas converted from a convenient store into a restaurant. Both inside and outside tables are available but we opted for inside table. There are many Christmas ornaments both inside and outside at this time of year! Nicholas greeted us with a warm welcome. He is personable, with a friendly smile. In fact, he informed me that the word, Sunqu, is a Quechua word that means "heart" and comes from the Incas. We were set up with fried plantain slices, roasted corn nut, concha, with dipping sauce. Both tasted freshly made and crunchy. It went well with my full glass of Sangria. A great way to start your meal! Wife ordered her favorite Peruvian dish, Lomo Saltado. She loved how the beef was cooked and the seasoning is perfect. I ordered the grilled octopus. It was tender and flavorful. This is a culinary experience you must try! The presentation for both dishes are colorful and artistic. In fact, I ate the flower as Nicholas told us it is edible! The chef, Oscar, ask me how I like the grilled octopus. I said, "Love it and well done". We were so full and did not try their Seven Leches cake! If you like Peruvian food, this is the place for you! Check it out for yourself. You'll not be disappointed. Five stars rating!
