They have happy hour Monday through Friday from 5 to 8 and each day they rotate a different drink special. Beer and wine are also included in the $6 specials which is actually a pretty good deal. I went on a Wednesday so the featured drink was the pisco sour and it was delicious. The bartender put a cute little topping/design on the foam which made it feel a little more elevated and not just a basic happy hour drink. It was not overly crowded but there were still a decent amount of people there so it had a nice energy without feeling too loud or packed. A couple of my family members ended up coming too and it worked out well for just sitting, talking, and having drinks after work. Overall definitely a good spot for happy hour if you want something more relaxed with good drinks and a nice atmosphere.

We drove an hour to get to the place to find out that they did not have it. The waiter suggested I get the chicken with the tallarines a la Hauncaina instead so we did. The play arrived and it was red pasta with Papa à la huancaina on the side and one drumstick. I mentioned to several people that the past was incorrect and though it was corrected at the end when we were going to leave, it took a long time. The waiter was nice, but may have been new. The bus boy was a bit snarky, saying that I should have said something from the beginning, when honestly, I did not know what it was until I tasted it that it was not what I ordered. My husband ordered seafood and he enjoyed it. The rice was a tiny portion and it came out a bit cold, but it had flavor. I was a mix of seafood and it was good. He also enjoyed his Leche de Tigre. On the menu, the price was about $10 lower than when the check came out for the seafood plate. I'm also enjoy the music and all the Peruvian culture that was in the restaurant I think for the price the servings could be a bit bigger and that they correct plates in a timely matter.

I stopped in for lunch and loved finding a cute & clean space with murals on the wall and a few tables to sit. After asking for a bit of advice and opinions on some of their favorites from the menu, we got a little bit of everything.. Two smoothies, a chicken salad sandwich and a few empanadas. Everything was delicious! The Surtido (or Market Boost) smoothie was so fruity and flavorful, you'd think it was loaded with sugar. And the pan con pollo (chicken salad sandwich) was so simple and tasty. Loved that it had some lettuce, celery and little chips added to it for a bit of a crunch. And all on some good bread. Excited to return for coffee and another smoothie. Happy to have another great breakfast/lunch spot on my radar!

From the moment we walked in, the vibes were right. The restaurant was beautiful, clean, welcoming, and the portions? Let's just say they clearly don't believe in sending anybody home hungry. Huge shoutout to our waiter Ali S. This man knew the menu inside and out, was incredibly attentive, and his passion for Peru and its food was contagious. When someone loves what they're serving, you can taste the difference! We started with the Causa Mistura --a cold mashed-potato masterpiece packed with ceviche. INCREDIBLE. Honestly, whoever decided potatoes and ceviche belonged together deserves a trophy. Then came the fried calamari with yuca and salsa criolla . The crispy seafood, the yuca, those tangy onions, lime, cilantro, and peppers... yeah, we were officially locked in. But apparently, we have no self-control. So naturally, we ordered the Jalea Mixta --a literal mountain of fried calamari, shrimp, clams, and yuca. A MOUNTAIN. At that point, the table looked like we were preparing for a family reunion. Then came the heavyweight champion: Lomo Saltado . Tender beef, salsa criolla, beans, and rice--and now I completely understand why it's one of their best sellers. ZERO NOTES. For drinks, we had the beautiful Chicha Morada , made from purple corn with pineapple, cinnamon, cloves, and other spices. Sweet, refreshing, and honestly one of the most unique drinks I've had in a while. And because apparently we hadn't eaten enough... we finished everything off with their homemade Tres Leches Cake. Moist, sweet, rich, and made PERFECTLY. My sons and I destroyed it. Great food Generous portions Reasonable prices Amazing service Family-approved Mistura Peruana #3 is proof that sometimes the best meals are hiding right in your own neighborhood. The only problem? I came in as a customer and left looking like I might need a second chair.

We stopped at Mixtura because it was relatively close to JFK after a late-night arrival. It was a…read moreSaturday around 10 p.m., and finding an open place to eat at that hour was not easy, so this felt like a practical option on the way home. I live in New Jersey, and I knew that if I didn't eat somewhere near the airport, I was probably not going to eat at all that night. We ordered papa a la huancaína, a tamal, and leche de tigre, and the total came to about $48, which Its affordable by the area standards. Peruvian food is not necessarily cheap, so my issue was not mainly the price. My issue was the quality and the care behind the food. Its important to note here I am Peruvian, so I say this with real knowledge of the cuisine and with disappointment, not malice. The papa a la huancaína came with about four or five potato pieces, half an egg, one lettuce leaf, and no olive. Quantity-wise, the potatoes were fine, but the sauce told the whole story. It barely tasted like ají amarillo, and the flavor felt muted and commercial, like it was made more for cost control than for enjoyment. Huancaína sauce should have character, richness, and that unmistakable Peruvian flavor. This one felt flat. The tamal was decent in flavor, so I will give credit there, but it had only one slice of pork, no egg, and very little ají. It was a good size, but still did not feel worth the price. Again, it felt like the ingredients were being stretched too far. The most disappointing item was the leche de tigre. This is a dish that deserves much more respect because for many people, ceviche and related dishes are among the most recognized parts of Peruvian cuisine. This preparation did not feel delicate or authentic. It tasted like corners were cut. As someone who knows Peruvian food and has worked in restaurants before, I understand that using enough lime to properly prepare fish is expensive in the U.S. But that is exactly the point: if you are going to serve this dish, then do it right. If not, don't present it as something special. $21 for this? Honestly, I felt CHEATED. What frustrated me most is that this restaurant clearly has potential. The decor is nice, ready for selfies and Instagram pictures; you can tell effort was put into the presentation of the space. But to me, it felt like more attention went into ambiance than into the food itself. My impression was that the restaurant is aimed more at people who are not very familiar with Peruvian food and may accept a more mediocre version of it. For someone who truly knows and loves Peruvian cuisine, this was disappointing. I've had much better Peruvian food in less polished places in New Jersey, especially in Paterson. The decor at Mixtura may be prettier, but the food I had there was, at best, low-end mediocre. I ate it because I was hungry and it was late, and I appreciate that they were open when I needed a meal. But I would not go back, even in the same situation again. If you are Peruvian or very familiar with authentic Peruvian food, this may not be the place for you. If you are simply craving something nearby and are not especially focused on authenticity or quality, then maybe it will work for you. But for me, this is a one-time visit only. Sorry, its a NO-GO for a second visit.
