I ordered the classic ceviche sampler along with the grilled salmon asado. As someone who's a really healthy and conscientious eater, I appreciated how fresh and balanced everything was. The salmon was a huge piece and came with asparagus, potatoes, tomatoes, and broccoli that were all perfectly seasoned, plus two eggs on top and a side of rice. I ate every bite. It was both delicious and nutritious. It's not fancy, just a really great casual place with excellent food. We'll definitely be back.

The food is authentic and delicious, even when it is reinterpreted slightly to be enjoyable to the uninitiated palate. The service is the type you would receive in Peru: personable, amicable, and fun. It is wholesome to witness the love they have for Peruvian cuisine and culture. The place itself became even more beautiful after recent remodeling. This is as close to home as it gets in Orlando.

Entered here for lunch with a girlfriend and absolutely fell in love with the coconut lemonade! I seriously would go back just to have that! I wish that they had more appetizers on the menu, but it is Peruvian food and it is a little different from other Hispanic restaurants. MThe waitress was very kind and explained some of the dishes to us. I opted for the fried rice and my friend got a similar one with pork belly. We got toast on his for appetizers, which I thought they could've done a little more to it. Anyhow, I will definitely be back to try more of their natural juices, which were delicious! There is so much on the menu, they even have sushi, maybe I will try the noodles next time!

The aji ( green) sauce was just hot without noticeable clean acidic flavor. The hot sauce was hot but had a gritty texture. UGLY: Nothing ugly but nothing to come back for.

The servers are knowledgeable of the menu and able to answer many specific questions. At times the service felt a little rushed, which is why I gave it a 4/5, but nothing to deter me from going again. Atmosphere: 5/5 It is truly a beautiful restaurant. The décor, the lighting, the cultural aspects on the wall, the different sections of the restaurant...all really contribute to a vibrant and authentic experience. They've recently expanded as well, and I was blown away. Value: 4/5 This is truly an experience. The pricing can be a little pricey, but I believe it is worth it. This is probably not a casual night out for dinner, but a nice date night, a celebration, or an elevated experience. Opportunities for Learning: 5/5 The menu has many traditional Peruvian options with unique twists. The menu maintains many of the Spanish names for the dishes, so the menu will have you googling. I first learned about the anticuchos cooking style at Llama, and I continue to learn every time I go back.

Wow... what an experience! This cute little place packs a BIG punch. From the moment we walked in,…read morethe staff was very welcoming and friendly. We had a reservation and they sat us right away. Reservations are usually required since they get full real quick. The server was kind and explained the menu and meal service to us. We started with specialty cocktails. Everything is hand made and fresh. You can taste the difference. We got some appetizers. Personally, my favorite was the yucca with the trio of dipping sauces. Each sauce was better than the last, and I wanted to continue eating each one long after it was done. The octopus was delicate and melted in your mouth. The flavor combos in the volcano dish were so wonderful. It was like chips and dip. I was most excited for my meal. The pesto pasta with the hanger steak. EVERY.THING.WAS.AMAZING in this dish. I was savoring each bite. Getting sad when I was reaching the end. The pesto was packed with flavor. Creamy and aromatic. The hanger steak?! Oh boy... perfectly cooked. Juicy. Melted in your mouth. I wanted a lot more of that. What a great piece of meat. I was reallllly looking forward to dessert. And it did not disappoint! I got the s'mores dessert. I love s'mores everything. And this was an elevated s'mores like I never had before. The presentation was WOW. The smore was in a bag that they lit on fire at the table. The fire charred the marshmallow on top perfectly. The Carmel on top of the delegate shortbeard was melt in your mouth. Those shortbeard cookies were incredible. Buttery and crumbly. Perfect. The strawberry compote to mix with it was fresh and bursting with flavor. All the flavors melding together to light your taste buds on fire! I would LOVE to return and try some more items. We had a wonderful experience!

Nothing fancy, just really good, fresh food made to order. One of the things I loved learning about this place is that the chef actually goes fishing, and what he catches can become part of the menu. That made the experience even more special, especially because you could really taste the freshness of the fish. I had the fried fish fillet with rice, fries, and salad, and it was delicious. The fish was fresh, perfectly cooked, and I loved that it wasn't overloaded with seasoning. It had just enough to bring out its natural flavor. We also tried the chicken stir-fry, which was very flavorful. Everything we ordered was prepared fresh at the moment, and the portions were generous. And if you're wondering how much I liked it... just look at the picture of my empty plate. Definitely a little hidden gem in Cocoa Beach. We'll be back!

We were in the mood for a South American restaurant and someone suggested here…read more Walking in we felt like the food was going to be fire as it gave off an atmosphere of home cooking and the "gathering house" where everyone goes to eat. I enjoyed seeing Peruvian culture being repped on all the walls. I had to Google some of the geoglyphs like the monkey one because it was cause for a great debate at our table. The young lady server was very nice and took good care of us. The menu? Everything sounded really good and we had a semi-hard time deciding what to get. We did start off with a Pisco Sour and a Maracuya cocktail. Both were pretty light and tasty. One co-worker had a tooth removed so all he could eat was soup so he ordered the Sopa de Dia which was chicken. He said it was pretty good for the big bowl he was served. One co-worker got the Bistec Apanado (deep fried steak with sides of meduros and fries). He said the steak was tough and his meduros were either not fully cooked or overcooked. Another co-worker got the Bistec A Lo Pobre (flank steak, rice, fries, meduros, fried eggs). She said the steak was tough too. Same problem with the meduros. The other co-worker got the Arroz Con Mariscos (mixed seafood yellow rice). His came out first and it smelled amazing. He's not a fan of cilantro and it was topped with it. He's one of those weirdos that the gene that cilantro tastes like soap lol. He still liked his food and at most of it. He left the calamari rings behind stating that they were too chewy for him. We all tried it and we were pretty split on the statement. I ordered the Mixto Ceviche (raw fish, calamari, and shrimp) with added spiciness. Don't ask me why I chose spicy, I just knew that it was going to be spicy as in more spice and not like spicy hot. It was very good even though I felt as if I had too much liquid on my plate. Sopping it up was out of the question as it was very sea-salty. I'm not sure who's child it was but a young guy came up to me and asked what I was eating I told him and then he walked away. Our table was confused by the reaction but he came back later to take some of our dishes to the back. Slightly odd. I'd come back. I need to try their Chicha Morada (purple corn drink)

It comes with Chaufa de Pollo, Ceviche Clásico, and Papa a la Huancaína, making it an easy way to sample a few Peruvian favorites in one order. The Ceviche Criollo ended up being my favorite dish. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the creamy yellow pepper sauce added just the right amount of richness without taking away from the bright citrus flavors. I also ordered the Tallarines Verdes con Churrasco, and the pesto pasta paired perfectly with the juicy, tender skirt steak.
