The specials are amazing. This is the perfect place to pick up lunch and go. You can always trust that the food will be both filling and perfect. The vegetarian options are also flavorful and filling. My advice is go experience some Peruvian comfort food. read more

This is a a good interesting spot. It's located on Walnut above Pamelas. I don't recall ever having Peruvian food before, but will definitely try again. It's a small place where everyone seems to know each other. The specials change weekly and are a good deal for $10. The service is friendly and the portions are appropriate. We started yesterday with sweet patatoe chips (I think) with some type of dip. It was very good and a nice change for a first course. I had the chicken and rice cooked in cilantro which was really good. The cilantro really gave the dish a crisp fresh flavor. The limeade was delicious and gave me an appropriate mid afternoon sugar buzz. It's a good discovery and a unique place to take your out of town guests. read more

I love this place and have a very fond memory of it........first of all, the food is unique and very good, the service is great and I love the items for sale in giftshop.....I had lunch here with my sister before she passed away (very young) from breast cancer....she is the one who introduced me to the place......it was one of the nicest times we ever had....the place just has a very nice, welcoming, happy, peaceful feel to it.....we were treated very nice, a wonderful memory.....and I've enjoyed the place ever since..... read more

The absolute best for takeout. Pair with wine for movie night. Excellent vegetarian options that carnivores would not pass on

Tasty food, kind of a strange set up. Above Pamela's restaurant, half shop (selling Peruvian handmade goods)- half restaurant (with Peruvian food). They offer three to four choices each day, meat eaters and vegetarian peruvian dishes, similar to curries. About $10 a plate. Fresh ingredients, friendly waitstaff, clean and comfy environment. They also have fresh squeezed limeade. Highly recommended but not your typical restaurant experience. read more

Absolutely the best Peruvian food in Pittsburgh. I don't live here anymore but when I return, I eat here several times. Food is super fresh, the specials are to die for and their empanadas make me smile. They buy genuine Peruvian goods to sell as well in their gift shop section. read more

Wonderful Peruvian empanadas and lovely atmosphere. Above Pamela's restaurant. Really a gem.

This is the one restaurant in Pittsburgh my friends and I can always agree on. The specials never disappoint! The chicken is always cooked tenderly to perfection and the sweet potato chips are worth an order. It took me four years to find this place because the location is slightly obscure. I wish I'd found it sooner! read more

it is not unusual to find me at LaFeria once or twice a week. It is one of the top few places in Pittsburgh to have a casual lunch or dinner that is guaranteed to be delicious every time. I have convinced almost every member of my friends and family to dine here and now they crave it too! The daily specials are fantastic, but my old faithful is the La Feria salad with Turkey and a heaping pile of sweet potato chips. I have never ordered anything here that I have not loved. The service is very casual but friendly, and are very accommodating for BYOB needs. The cafe also doubles as a shop with a lot of really fun items to peruse after your meal. I cannot say enough good things about this place, it is a Pittsburgh treasure! read more

Stop in at lunchtime for the La Feria salad, and make sure to add fresh, roasted turkey. Enjoy!

Food is excellent, very fresh. Ordered the pavo sandwich with a salad, their turkey is amazing. Small restaurant and gets kind of cramped but worth trying! read more

The sweet potato chips are the best ever. The specials on any given day of the week will be most delicious and inexpensive. Love the salad and the house dressing. The vegetarian sandwich is the bomb, so is the beef sandwich. I'd pretty much motor boat that entire menu if I could. read more

The store is really cute. Has some very cool mirrors and a few trays that are very decorative. The restaurant is small. Just 10-12 tables. The service was great. The food was OK. Went for lunch, and tried to try a few things. The empanadas were just OK. They had some interesting sounding mixes but they were just ok. I had some peanut pumpkin soup that was the best thing I tried. They did have a few veggie items, which I always appreciate. Overall a fine stop for lunch, but nothing special. read more

It's really nice place, nice food, nice service and is cheap. I just didn't like their empanadas.

Had the chicken here. Was somehow unevenly cooked and bland. So bland. Friend had a vegetarian special, which was better, but still unimpressive. Realize it was only 12$ for dinner, and yet somehow still entirely not worth it. read more

I would recommend this place for a quick lunch. I ordered the non-vegetarian special of the day, cilantro chicken with rice, french bread, and salad. The chicken was a bit on the dry side, but it still had great flavor. My meal was $11 (pre-tax and tip) which I thought was fair considering that the salad was extremely fresh and there was a decent amount of meat. read more

Service can be a bit slow at times. Also, I rarely see the place crowded. Still, its a good place to eat. Usually people go for the daily specials, where they give you a big plate with their house salad (delicious), a daily-changing entree, rice and some bread. It's about 10 dollars. They usually have 2 vegetarian and 2 non-vegetarian daily options. I love their limeade (its terrifically bright and fresh, made from real limes). Also, if you happen to be really rich (which I'm not) you might fancy buying some of the Peruvian art they sell in the store. Try touching the pelts on your way out, probably the softest fur you've ever felt in your life. Also, they have fun finger dolls, knit to look like naked people. The nudists sell for about 3 bucks a pop though... read more

I really love this joint. It is small and casual. The menu changes regularly, and there is always a vegetarian option. I'm surprised it isn't more crowded because I can't really thing of a negative thing to say about the place. The salad is yummy, and I'm not even a salad person. I think my favorite dish here thus far has been the Peruvian corn. The atmosphere is cozy with a little shop in the front. read more

The service here was very friendly, and our food was delivered quickly! We really like the large portion sizes and the relaxed and quiet atmosphere. I didn't read other reviews before I went, so I was a bit surprised to see all of the Peruvian craft and jewelry items for sale in the same space as the restaurant seating, but I thought it was all beautiful and only added to the nice cafe atmosphere. Not really a Friday night date destination, but definitely a good place to get a bite to eat! read more

This delicious Peruvian Restaurant is often overlooked due to its location over the wildly popular Pamela's restaurant. For those who don't want to wait in line for Pamela's or those who are looking for a great bite to eat, LaFeria is the place for you. All of the food I've tried there has been great. Their daily specials are usually yummy and their empanadas and sandwiches are great. I especially love their salad. Turkey breast over a bed of greens with red onions, walnuts and gorgonzola cheese dress in a tasty vinegarette. It's light, yet you wont leave hungry. While you're there, check out the Peruvian arts and crafts that are also for sale there. read more

Lovely, refreshing food, though the menu gets a bit old. Perfect, unique salad dressing. Must try it!

Can't emphasize enough how great this place is. It makes me sad that everyone goes to Pamela's when La Feria is right above it - I always go here for breakfast/brunch and am always extremely satisfied. It's a great environment: La Feria, in addition to a restaurant, also acts as a Peruvian shop. They sell clothes, toys, and even amazing chess sets. The seating is cozy, the people are friendly, and the food comes out pretty quickly. Speaking of food: It's fantastic. You'll pretty much always want to get one of the specials; each day they have a meat special and a vegetable special, but both are always great. The special (which usually consists of meat and vegetables) comes with garlic rice, salad (with onions, tomato, olives, cheese, and walnuts), and French bread. It's $10.95, which might be a bit expensive, but it'll definitely fill you up, and every bite will be delicious. Maybe you'll even have some to take home! If you don't get one of the specials, go for the ropa vieja - beef slow-cooked with tomatoes. Still $10.95, still comes with rice/salad/bread, still delicious. Bonus: La Feria has great Peruvian coffee! read more

Had the beef tapdo and it was delicious. Tasted fresh and was different. I also had the Peruvian coffee and it was tasty. I would definitely come back. Coworker had the beef empanada and loved it. read more

I know this place doesn't have "authentic" food. I know it's not always the friendliest place. I know it looks weird, eating in the middle of a store. But for some reason their combination of a simple Dijon salad dressing and rice and always a decent slow cooked pulled chicken meal makes me enjoy solo lunches with a book. Once in a while you should skip the noisy, crowded, expected Pamela's and try something that tastes homemade. read more

Fantastic find. Great food and unexpectedly awesome little import shop where I picked up some awesome things for the new home. Good service (got take out) and really enjoyed the food. read more

I can't comment on the food because I've been waiting so long to be served anything other than a cup of soup in a restaurant that isn't full. The empty cup is still in front of me though. Update: The food came and was good but certainly not worth the wait read more

LaFeria was one of my daughter and my "special" finds yesterday in Pittsburgh. Everything was perfect. The staff, atmosphere and food. With needing to be gluten and dairy free, what a find. Salad very good. Besides greens, onions etc.also encluded walnuts, Parmesan, olives and a very clean dressing. Chicken with their made pesto and Parmesan sauce. Lemonade fresly made and wonderful! Will be back in a month and LaFeria will be a revisit. read more

Had walked by this place probably 100x without realizing it was there until a co-worker recommended it to us. Glad they did because we love it now. Never had peruvian food before La Feria but now we're hooked! Always seem to have leftovers because we fill up the sweet potato chips & dip :) read more

If you go to La Feria expecting to find Peruvian food be prepared to be disappointed. There's no lomo saltado, papas a la huancaina, arroz chaufa, aji de gallina, not even some chicha morada. That being said the food they do offer isn't bad, it's just not Peruvian in my opinion and I was disappointed about not finding any of my favorite dishes on their menu. What you will find are sandwiches, salads, empanadas, beans and rice. Overall it is a good spot to have lunch, the food isn't heavy and tastes fresh. I'll probably eat here again someday but at least next time I'll know what to expect. read more

funky little cafeteria atop a very popular pittsburgh breakfast spot. it's BYOB - always nice - and the food is abundant and tasty. very casual, small menu, good, attentive service. plus they have a little shop with peruvian gifts, including an incas vs. spanish chess game, fluffy mini-llamas, and bright woven goods. read more

Great peruvian! Love their housemade salad dressing. Wish that I could buy it! Their shredded chicken dishes are always excellent. Great lunch spot in Shadyside. Lovely little import store attached. A favorite!! read more

One of my fav places to eat. As a vegetarian, there is always something for me to eat. Try the limeade...its amazing. Their ahi hot sauce is also awesome. I always buy a bottle on my way out. A great hearty meal. A must try. read more

La Feria remains one of Pgh's best restaurants -- consistently wonderful food, good value, friendly service. Viva!

Fabulous lunch if Epanades and salad...finished off with bread pudding and caramel sauce.....

The salad (with walnuts and cheese) and beef ropa sandwich are scrumptious. And the limeade, too.
