best Peruvian chicken in Leesburg, hands down. Prices are very reasonable and they have other main dishes that I can't wait to try.

This place is fantastic. Wife and I have been coming for 10 years and never had a bad meal or…read moreexperience. Fantastic guacamole. Ridiculously good grilled shrimp. Super yummy chicken cream. Lovely people serving. Very low-key atmosphere/decor but the food is off the charts good.

I was in the area and really wanted GST (Gas Station Thai = Thai Pan in Leesburg), but couldn't…read morefind a place to park. Then while driving around that gas station looking for a spot to park, I smelled some amazing Pollo a La Brassa and saw La Chocita behind the gas station. That smelled drew me in! The folks inside were friendly and sat me promptly. I ordered a quarter chicken and she immediately told me she didn't have any chicken today (I think she meant not ready yet). I said I smelled it and that's why I came in, so she said to wait and went in the back. She came back and said she had chicken, so I assumed the fresh, amazing smelling chicken I came in for that was being cooked was ready. Well, what I got was yesterday's chicken which seemed to be re-heated. It was dry and flavorless... very boring. No spices to be seen or tasted - So very disappointing! The beans that came with it were decent... not a lot of flavor, but great texture and still good. The salad was fresh, their "dressing" was the typical mayo-based sauce and it was ok. Overall - Nothing at all exciting about this visit... I left disappointed.

Let me start by saying, I really love this resturant! This is my second time going there, as I went…read morethere last week with friends, and wanted to go again as their menu was extensive! I wanted to wait and give a review after the first time as I hoped it wasn't one of those, ("the first time it was great! The second time...not so much.), let me reassure you that was not the case with Autentico! On my first visit, I had a seafood selection, and it was so fresh and so good! I was also checking out my buddy's chunks of beef that were part of his meal, and wanted that too! He gave me a chunk and it was so tender, juicy and good, I knew on my next visit, I would have to order some form of their steak! The service was spot on, and food order time to table, was exceptional! My next visit came yesterday, and yes I ordered a steak! It was a late Friday afternoon, and even though they were busy with a few large tables of people, service was still outstanding and the food was even better than the first time! If you have read some of my reviews, by the time I think to take pictures, there's not much left to take a picture of! Also, I know some people just take pictures and not much else, and while something can look really good in a photo, you have to dig into it to unearth what's really good about the dish, and everything I have tried at Autentico, was superb! I ordered the NY Strip with fries and instead of the rice that comes with it, I asked if I could substitute veggies for the rice? They said no problem! While the first time I had a couple bottles of their Corona, which was very cold and was also provided with a frosted glass, this time I asked for a Modelo Especial. I was told they had it on tap! Major points, as I love all of Modelo's products especially the stouts! It was just my buddy from work this time and me, and we had such a great meal and the ambiance was awesome! I had joked my first time visiting there while driving in, that there was an Irish resturant right next to it! I mentioned that we should go there after for a couple pints. We never got around to it, as we were too full both times to make it in. But that resturant is in the back of my mind for a future visit! So if you do go to Autentico, you won't be disappointed. It's a great location that's worth the drive, and an exceptional resturant!

Delicious and authentic Peruvian food! Restaurant looks casual but the staff and the food couldn't…read morebe more high end. Although the pollo a al brasa of fantastic, I encourage you to try something new. Wait staff were friendly and happy to answer questions. We've been several times and will be back.

Oh my gosh this place was soooooo good. So good my son covered himself in their pasta…read more We are visiting from out of town and this place caught our eye. If we loved here im sure we'd be regulars. My mother-in-law and I had the kebab (chicken and steak) and I forgot what the men had... the plantains were amazing, the chicken was SO tender and the Brussels sprouts were amazing. I had the house marg and it was 1/2 off, so of course I and to get two... The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the fried corn, it was kind of like the puffed up popcorn rhay doesn't pop all the way. It wasn't bad, but I think they had other better options.

It all started with an empty restaurant. Then the server's uninspired approach to our table…read more Drinks were good and came out in a reasonable amount of time. Ordered the Empanada tasting which is one steak, chicken and sausage. A few minutes later the u inspired server brings 2 of the same flavor when there should have been 3 different flavors. The manager corrected the issue and we started tasting and sampling and quickly realized that there wasn't much flavor to any of them and the sauce tasted like it had sat open in the refrigerator for weeks. One bite of each was enough to stop eating them! Then along came dinner..... Lomo Saltado and it was more disappointing than the appetizers! The steak chunks were not seasoned, the dish was very dry and the fries and vegetables were not seasoned. This meal doesn't even rate 1 star and they should be ashamed of their service and products!! Overall my review says don't eat at Mayta's!! It was a complete waste of money and time!! Horrible service and food!!
