    Ceviche and Chicha morada in rhe front Lomo saltado in the back. Everything was top notch!
    T D.

    Great food, great service. The place was clean and cute. The alfajores de maizena were delicious! This little restaurant is a hidden gem. The serve picarones on Thursdays, yumm.

    Whole roasted chicken combo was supposed to come with salad fries, and a 2 L of Inca -Cola.

    Unprofessional and no integrity. I ordered an hour ahead of time for my husband to pick up 2 whole chicken combos and 2 ceviches. The restaurant called to confirm with me. When he got to the restaurant he was greeted with puzzled looks. They acted confused, so I called. The lady who answered told me to give them 10 more minutes, I said no worries. 40 minutes later, still no food. I call again, they tell me 10 more minutes. Now I feel like I'm being played with and I'm 100% upset. I should have ordered from San Fernando Pollos a las brasas. I regret ordering from here. I will NEVER order from this restaurant again. Update- they did not give us the (2) 2liters of Inca cola. The lady keep telling me to take it up with a third party, she is not responsible, and to do whatever but she was not going to give me what I paid for. The photos I took is from their website. Worst experience I have ever had.

    First time trying Peruvian food. Restaurant was clean and basic. Server was very polite and made good recommendations. We ordered what she recommended and enjoyed it. Both seafood dishes were tasty but I found the octopus tough. We plan to come back and try the traditional roasted chicken.

    Stopped here on our way to Whidbey Island. It's a cute place in a strip mall right off the main triad to the ferry. I was craving roast chicken and salad. Ordered the whole chicken meal which comes with fries and salad and a bevy of sauces. The chicken was delicious and juice. The white meat was so tender and tasty. The hot sauce was excellent. Service was friendly and the restroom was clean. My only complaint was that the fries were not crispy. I would definitely go back if I'm in the area.

    Wow, good food. I really enjoyed the steak! So delicious. I also liked the chicken appetizer. Very nice with a spicy sauce. The veggies that comes along is great with the dressing they use for it.

    Crema volteada

    Delicious food! I had Inca Kola (a golden pop), yucca fries and the bistec, and it was wonderful. Make sure to end your meal with the crema volteada!

    Such an amazing spot with delicious food! Literally never been so excited about a place, the food is so flavorful and the staff is so friendly!

    1/4 roasted chicken, french fries, salad & appetizer
    Grace C.

    A delicious meal for one. :) 1/4 roasted chicken, french fries, salad - I want to try this with fried rice next time. I also got Papa a la Huacaína (boiled potatoes with a cheese sauce) which seems to be a comfort Peruvian appetizer. It wasn't my favorite, but still delicious - served with a half boiled egg & olive. Perfectly roasted flavorful chicken... Excited to try their other dishes and explore Peruvian food!

    Ordered jalea, lomo saltado, and half roasted chicken. All the restaurants in this plaza feel very authentic, like these people just moved here 2 weeks ago and set up shop. It's fantastic. Jalea was an unexciting dish, but the sauce was decent. Chicken was good too but once again unexciting. The lomo saltado I can absolutely recommend, not for the beef but for the rice. They boil the rice with garlic oil and I couldn't put it down. As one of the only 10 Chinese people in the world that doesn't like rice, this rice I love.

    Arroz con mariscos with super yummy sauces and salsa criolla.
    Sara C.

    Food is spot on, reminds me of my tia in Peru! Service was friendly and quick, even though I ran in to pickup my order two minutes before closing! Will definitely will be bdck

    Feels like I was transported to Peru :) opened 8 years ago…read more Ambiance, lovely service and of course the food. Went on Tues lunch- it was chill. DUO #1: CEVICHE + ARROZ CON MARISCOS $34 The seafood was tender and had octopus, calamari, shrimp and one mussel. Portion was large! LOMO SALTADO / Peruvian Stirfry Loin $23 The beef could be more tender. Fries and sauce were good (lacked the aji Amarillo) . Zero spice with option to add post. Good value ( I don't say that often these days) Parking available. Located in a quiet subtle strip mall. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful little family-run Peruvian restaurant that's worth a visit. Ignore the posts/reviews…read moreabout "service is bad." It's not. It's a small family-run place. Honestly, I get really tired of some Yelp reviewers who act so entitled and belittle a small place like this--it does not reflect well on the Yelp community. And here's a hint, you don't go to a restaurant 45 minutes or shorter before closing time and expect a perfect experience. In fact, many restaurants now close their kitchens to orders 30 minutes before that closing time; so stop acting so freaking entitled when you go in that time window. Okay, on to this place. We LOVED it. The service was friendly and helpful. No, it's not the fastest in the world, and mistakes were made (one for us with an ingredient we're allergic to--so ALWAYS double- and triple-check), but we didn't expect it to be. It was fine. The food was wonderful. These are Peruvians, and these are their family recipes. They may be different from certain other Peruvian family recipes. So what. Deal with it. The food was great. We will be returning. Many times. Loved it!

    Very nice in terms of everything! We went for lunch here on a Friday. We did make a reservation in…read moreadvance but it was not crowded, so I would think walking in would be okay too in lunch hours. But this is a really upscale place and assume the place runs at full capacity during dinner hours. There is parking under the building and you can get your parking ticket validated by your server before leaving - so no stress with parking in downtown. Yes, this is an expensive place but since we were here during lunch hours, we were able to take advantage of the Executive Lunch - Set menu for $45 per person. Among us 3 people, we were able to taste everything available in that set menu and every single dish was amazing - like truly, from presentation to flavors, especially the 3 appetizers - so so very good! This is everything we had - Starters - 1. Sunchoke Cebiche - must try 2. Roquitas Nikkei - must try 3. Clásico Cebiche - must try Main 1. Wild Mushroom Saltado 2. Lomo Saltado 3. Arroz con Mariscos Dessert 1. Tres Leches de Coco - must try Service was very well timed. We had an amazing time. Great place for a team lunch/dinner. Location is perfect, heart of downtown but none of the road noise or human traffic. A wonderful add to downtown Bellevue!

    I took my husband here for a birthday lunch and if it's just for the food, I would give it a 4.5/5…read more The food was excellent with one with one bad part but not enough to deter us from all the other foods. Eggplant dish -berenjena criolla 5/5 -- favorite dish of the day. Love that you can still taste a bit of the fried texture on the eggplant and flavor was nutty, creamy, and citrusy. Achupado 3/5 - this was a good dish, there was a variety of seafood and they were all good except for the octopus. That was inedible. I wished they cut it to smaller pieces so it can be eaten easier or give us a knife but as is, it was way too tough and chewy. Flavors was spot on, I do wish they gave more noodles to absorb the sauce Ceviche tasting - 5/5 love the variety. All of them was fresh, tangy and flavorful Complimentary corn - 5/5 this was addicting Service 3/5 : our server was very knowledgeable, he gave us a little of a tour of the menu, cam check on us a couple of times. However, I wish he would have clearly explained that the executive lunch was for the whole table, not just individual. Also, cleaning our table while we are still there is a bit rude in my opinion, almost feel like they are rushing us out. The place is fancy and very very pricey. Good for special occasions or once in a while splurge.

Relocating from California has had its challenges but dinner was not one of them, thanks to Pink Salt. We were hungry after checking into our Airbnb and this restaurant was right up the street in Magnolia's cute little downtown area. The ambience is neat and inviting.

Each dish was a crowd pleaser. We will be coming here often. Congrats and thank you to the staff for making our first dinner a beautiful memory! We are not easily impressed;)

It's a Peruvian restaurant with a very plain outside and dim lighting on the inside. The service was great, they were attentive. I unfortunately felt like the food and plating were really mediocre.

The rockfish tasted fresh! - Seco Limeno de Pollo: 3.5/5, the salsa was not as flavorful as I had hoped for. - Budin: 2/5, this was dry and small. I was really disappointed with this dessert. I enjoy that they had a menu for SRW; I would give them another try outside of SRW.

I loved it so much I went back again and ordered the same thing! Lol. If you're an empanada lover, this little hidden gem is a must-visit. It's tucked inside Pike Place Market and doubles as a small Latin grocery, stocked with sauces, spices, and other goodies from all over Latin America. Service is fast and friendly, and everything feels super authentic and homey. Just a little FYI: the yellow sauce isn't free, they charge $2 for it, so plan accordingly if you love dipping like I do! Perfect for a quick bite while exploring the market or grabbing a few specialty ingredients to take home.

    Seattle (overpriced) Empanadas in Pike Place Market [Seattle WA]…read more Saw the empanadas in a glass case while navigating our way through the crowded Pike Place Market. It was a busy Thanksgiving weekend. They are located across the Farmers Market. Got two each of the beef and chicken empanadas. They are both tasty and delicious with lots of flavors but they are unreasonably priced at $8 a piece which wasn't stated anywhere on their menu board and only got the shock when I paid for them but the beef is made with lean ground organic beef and the chicken with organic shredded chicken breasts. Maybe that's why? I dunno, organic tends to be more expensive. Each beef or chicken empanada was garnished with onions, garlic, olives, pimientos, raisins, eggs, red & green bell peppers, some yummy spices and sauteed in olive oil and butter... that's a lot of stuff crammed in those empanadas. They also have salmon empanadas and ham and cheese empanadas. I'd probably get my empanadas elsewhere but this was the touristy Pike Place after all. Review #3615
