I happened to be searching nearby for Peruvian food and came across Bravazo. While i thought it was…read morea new spot, this pkace hs been opened for a while. We decided to order a 1/2 of rotisserie Peruvian chicken- chicken only ($10). Ceviche clasico ($20) and a side order of plantains ($6) and a bottle of my favorite Peruvian beer cusqueña ($6). We sat down about 6:30pm, the restaurant was relatively empty, seems like ther take out business was moving. We kept noticing people just coming from the outside to use the restroom. Food service was very quick, we noticed the rotisserie chicken breast was a bit dry, the leg and tight seem moist. The tostones were perfectly fried, the ceviches was fine nothing special. The typical green sauce was set in the table and it paired well with the chicken, tostones and ceviche. Overall the menu seems difficult to understand prices. Menu has family meals, and meals that are protein only such as the chicken i ordered. But in my opinion this is confusing, maybe family meals work when you have 4 or more people but for 2, its too much food. Psrking was difficult, when the bill came, the tip is automatically added onto the bill, while i dont have a problem tipping, they should tell you that from the beginning and not just add it to the bill automatically. When the server gave me the bill, they had also made a mistake to charge me for tap water. I went to the counter and i asked why there was a$2 charge for water and they told me it was a mistakebut neither the server or the person ringing the bill caught it, until i told them. I definitely had better Peruvian food but as a last minute decision we ate here because we were visiting my family nearby. I normally goto to Long Island, Ocenaside to eat at Ananau, now this joint the service, ambiance and the food is definitely 5 star. Bravazo did not feel like s restaurant ambiance, felt like a take spot. Dont get me wrong, the server was very nice but i wouldn't come back. While my wife was washing her hands in the restroom, some guy off the street who was not a customer came in loud, and started to bang on the door of the restroom. Nobody in management or even the servers said anything to him, weird situation and what was more disturbing was that he was hanging out at the pizza place next door. During our dinner, i notice people from the pizza place where coming in to use the restrooms in the restaurant.-totally weird.

Their outside area could use a little more tlc but it is clean which is important. The service was just ok, the waitress was attending to many tables so it was hard to get her attention several times. I ordered their pandeja paisa which was a great size and enough to eat among two people. My favorite part was definitely their chicharrón; it was crispy just how I like it. My least favorite part of the dish was the beans; they lacked flavor and seemed to be watered down. The beans are the most important part of a bandeja paisa so I was very disappointed. I also didn't like that when I asked the waitress for the bill all she did was give me the total which I thought was super odd. I should have questioned it but since it was so hard to get her attention in the first place, I just paid and left. Not sure if I would return.

Eating at this place is like eating at my mommas house - delishhhhhh. I have been here several times and it's never a disappointment Their plates are typical colombian plates. Carne asada with rice, beans, salad and sweet plantain. Or bandeja paisa. Orrrrr juicy grilled chicken with lentils, rice, salad and sweet plantain. Right now I just finished eating their soup of the day - fish soup & my sides are rice, salad and breaded fish Nice and healthy. It was AMAZINGGGGGG A perfect meal that doesn't leave you feeling all stuffed. On top of making you feel like you're eating a home cooked meal - their prices are super AFFORDABLE. I just paid $18 for two (2) orders of what I mentioned above and the portions are just right! Oh yea - and when you eat in - their service is excellent. No complaints whatsoever Thank you Brisas del Valle for your wonderful service and for cooking with love

Cuisine: 7 Service: 6…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 8 Overall: 7 My buddy said this restaurant has been around, but for some reason, he has never tried it. Therefore, three of us came here for lunch the other day. We shared an appetizer and a couple of the lunch specials. I thought the grilled fish that came with chicken soup, rice and beans, salad, and maduro was an excellent deal for $15. The fish was seared nicely and tasted extremely moist. Wish I knew what fish it was, but I suspect it's some type of flaky white fish. I would definitely come back for this dish again. Beef fried rice was not bad, but a bit boring. Lots of sesame oil was clearly used, while the beef was pretty tough. Not my thing. Btw, the Guacamole was very fresh, served with fried plantain chips. The prices are inexpensive and the food is pretty good. I'll definitely return to try more of their menu, especially the lunch specials.

Our waitress Jil was super attentive and sweet- not just her but all of the waitstaff continued to check on us to see if we needed anything. We ordered food for the kids and it came out right away. Order was big enough for my kids to share. They got the grilled chicken, rice, beans, maduros and fries (freshly cut fries ). I ordered the bolon mixto- so fresh and crispy! I also had the seafood soup it was delicious. My husband had the red snapper he enjoyed that as well. We also ordered the cow feet soup. Everything was really good especially the drinks! I highly recommend chiflez!

Came here for a little small belated birthday dinner for a friend and we had a very nice time. We each just had a dish since we knew the portions are BIG. The menu is extensive and there was a lot to choose from. They even offer some Mexican and Italian dish options. I had the Grilled Skirt Steak (Monterey), which was SO BIG I had leftover for lunch the next day. :) the meat was pretty tender and juicy. The dish came with tostones (big) and rice. We were also served salads to start. What stands out a lot is the amazing service here. They are so polite, friendly, patient and helpful. The restaurant definitely seemed staffed properly which I suppose was a good thing because as the night progressed, the place filled up (for a Thursday night). My friends had the salmon and the Chicken Franchise. I took off just one star because they ended up charging my friends twice (but rectified the mistake), hopefully her funds will sort out. They also charge extra if you want to make any side substitutions... which isn't kind of crappy. The place is also beautifully decorated and spacious. Will def be back very soon! Next time we'll partake in an adult beverage maybe :)

I've experienced and enjoyed Colombian cuisine before, but unfortunately, I was not a big fan of the food at Barriles. We were with my brother, and the three of us shared the Ceviche Mixto, the Picada La Jefa, and Parrillada Barriles. The Picado La Jefa was the best in terms of flavor, due primarily to the sauce and guacamole. The Parrillada Barriles was surprisingly disappointing, despite the "wow" factor of the portion size. Everything on the platter was so overcooked and dry, and everything also lacked seasoning. It was almost inedible, but we took the leftovers home in the hopes of being able to repurpose them somehow since the dish cost $50. The ceviche was prepared in a traditional red sauce, which I had never had before. The texture of the seafood was decent, but I didn't care for the sauce. It tasted oddly sweet to me. Overall, I would not eat here again but would return for drinks.

We were also watching the NYK - Spurs Finals, and instead of telling us that they were closing. They just shut off the audio and turned off the tv. Mind you, we just finish paying and we would have order another round of drinks if they left the tv on for 5 more minutes. The game was literally going to end. And i get that they were closing but a friendly "hey guys, we getting ready to close." Would have been nice. The server also rushed my friend who got there at 9:55pm, and said that they were getting ready to close the kitchen. They still took 3 parties after her. Last party came in almost at 11. This place was empty and i could see why. Avoid this place. I want my tip back.
