we decided to stop in georgia on our way home to meet up with some friends & try some new eats! one of my friends suggested las brasas as he had heard great reviews from a lot of compadres. we were sat very promptly & greeted by our server who took the time to explain the "family style" dining experience. we decided to go with the whole fried chicken which we were told was marinated for hours in peruvian spices & then fried. we also had an order of their fried rice with roasted chicken. the fried chicken was served hot & golden brown with a side of lime wedges, i am allllll about squeezing limes on any dish to bring out the flavor & squeeze i did! being honest the chicken was delicious but i thought it might have a little more ethnic kick. however paired with the rice (i think the main spice was either cumin or tumeric) & a splash of lime - the combonation of flavors was really good! read more

Las Brasas - Latin American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

I'd been to Las Brasas years ago when they were still located closer to Agnes Scott college, and when I saw they had a scoutmob, I had to go back and revisit this great place. Las Brasas is a Peruvian restaurant that focuses on their roasted meats, and just from the aroma coming out of their restaurant, you know they know their way around any and every type of meat. Coming for lunch, I wanted something different, so I ordered their Lomo Saltado Sandwich ($12) and their Flan Quinoa ($6). Taken from their website, the Lomo Saltado comes with sautéed beef filet mignon tossed with fries, tomato, red onion, aji panca pepper purée, soy sauce and pisco. Served on an H&F bun. Let's get one thing out of the way now...these guys know how to cook some meat. Their beef, which came in strips/chunks were very tender and juicy, but they didn't have a lot of flavor to be honest. The bread was crispy and the veggies were pretty fresh, but the sandwich didn't have explosive flavors that I remembered, and it was just a pretty sandwich. The sandwich came with your choice of regular or sweet potato fries, and I was kinda sad to see crinkle cut fries. I thought they would be hand cut, although they tasted fine. No dipping sauce came with the fries. Their Quinoa Flan was very similar to the sandwich, in that it was cooked well and looked beautiful. The flan had a very silky texture, and the quinoa on top was a brûlée, but again, kinda lacking in flavor, not really sweet, and just okay to me. Las Brasas is at the corner of church street and commerce, and can be accessed from Mickey D's lot if you miss the entrance on Church. There is a very limited parking lot in front of Las Brasas (on church street), but there's a decent amount of space on the side (Commerce). Neither exit is a red light exit, but getting in/out isn't horrible. Customer service is attentive and although the restaurant looks small, it's actually quite spacious. I really want to give Las Brasas 5 stars, and the quality of their food prep is definitely on point...I just wasn't impressed with their flavors this time, but i'm sure the next time I visit, i'll have to update my review to 4 or more stars. But for now, Las Brasas is just okay to me. read more

The beef was super soft and juicy. The lo mein dish was super tasty. Will definitely go back

Love the location and dining area located outside Las Brasas. One of my friends is a Peruvian Chef, so I definitely love Peruvian cuisine. We stopped here with family and friends. I had the half pollo a la brasa and vegetable mixto and yucca fritas. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the presentation of all the dishes was very pleasant. The service was great too. I definitely would come back here. Do expect to spend some money while here as many things are à la carte. [Review #410] (57th Review of 2016) read more

It's time for this to be updated. Las brasas is definitely a fav here. A small building in Decatur with BIG flavor. They have a lunch menu until 230, dinner starts at 530. Recently they told me starting 9/26 they will be open all day!!! Their food is so juicy! My favorite thing to eat is their chaufa mixto. It is a HUGE serving of Peruvian seafood fried rice. My only complaint is that it's not served all day.. I crave it and can rarely make it out there for lunch. Womp Womp. Their roasted chicken is the most tender chicken you will ever have. I always get some to take home but ending up eating most of it with my meal. So good! The lomo Saltado is amazing and something I like to get often. Big chunks of beef filet stir fried with onions fries and tomatoes, served with rice. It's indescribable. You will never see me rave about a salad but here the house salad is totally worth it. Big and fresh, served with this creamy cucumber sauce... I never miss my salad serving when coming here. Their beams look soupy but are surprisingly tasty... All in all, you can't really go wrong here. Try their inka cola! It tastes like bubble gum! I like to have it with a few splashes of chicha morada- a sweet purple drink made of corn. The prices are good for the quality of food. Lomo Saltado is the most expensive at $17, a whole chicken is $15 and half for $9. The salad is $6. This place gets its 5th star due to one of their employees, Cullen. He is by far the best there and a really cool guy in general, we always have a nice chat with him and he always remembers our names which aren't that easy. Try to sit in his section! (But only if you tip well! Hahah) Another bonus: they are building an awesome patio. And they are on scoutmob... Las brasas, the place that just keeps giving. read more

This place is absolutely delicious. I've been three times in the last two weeks. Highly recommended, whether you were looking for a lighter, or healthier but delicious fare, or if you're looking to indulge with the fried chicken. read more

We came around 2pm an a Saturday afternoon. It was busy but no wait, and not crowded. Excellent ambiance. The food was authentic. Wait staff nice. Beer selection was decent. They have a full bar, although no bartender on duty (?!) Civeche is ON POINT! I would definitely come back for ceviche. We shared Lomo Salteado which is on the dinner menu, and we had to ask for it... The filet mignon was sparce but very tasty. The vegetables were nicely grilled. There wasn't much sauce.... it had a lot of potential, but slightly missed the mark. I want to come back at dinner. I have a feeling a different cook would make all the difference. read more

I decided to have lunch here today after passing the restaurant several times. I ordered the 1/4 portion grilled chicken combo with beans and rice and it was a great value under $10 bucks. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. The chicken was phenomenal! Perfectly grilled and moist. The rice and beans were good as well. It comes with this green sauce that was delicious and a relish of sorts with onion, tomato and parsley. This will definitely be a regular lunch spot for me. read more

Fresh delicious food , all ingredients and combination of flavor are unique Service is as good as the food and price is reasonable I will come back for sure , it is now part of my favorite places to eat read more

I was a fan of Las Brasas when they were a take-out only, small joint close to Kimball House. I'm glad they have a bigger space to sit down and eat a meal, now. My concern was that the food wouldn't be as good as it was in their old location but our meal last week was delicious. The yucca fries had a really great batter on them and I like that you can order half a rotisserie chicken instead of a whole (the half is enough for two people with sides). read more

Had a wonderful experience here! I recently moved to Atlanta and was really looking to find a place where I could enjoy some Peruvian dishes that would take me back to my time in South America. The outside patio was really cute, great for a date night! I had the Lomo Saltado and a pisco sour. Both where amazing and I was finally able to satisfy my Peruvian food craving! The staff was also very friendly and accommodating. Parking is very easy, it's right next to the restaurant. Overall a great experience, highly recommend!! read more

Las Brasas - Lomo Saltado - Latin American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

A great place for take out. We walked in, ordered, and left in about 15 minutes with food to go. We got a whole chicken, green sauce, fried yucca with yellow sauce, white rice, pinto beans. Chicken was delicious. It fell off the bone and had great flavor. Rice was moist. Yucca a little dry, but the sauce helped. I wish there had been more flavor in the beans. I love their restaurant setup, cleanliness, food overall. Service was awesome. Cons: Restaurant was cold inside, and beans needed more flavor read more

The service here is the worst service I have ever had in my life. As a Peruvian, I found the food decent with a couple of flaws. My mother and I tried to speak with Julio, the owner. He refused to come to our table to discuss the matter. As we left, we approached him. We asked him is he cared about our opinion and he said "no! I don't care about your opinion." We spent over 100 dollars on a meal that could have been decent if his service hadn't been so horrendous. I will make sure to tell all of my friends to not come to a place like this. UNA VERGÜENZA!!!! read more

Las Brasas - Inner seating area. - Latin American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

My guy and I wanted to hit up some place I had never tried. Las Brasas was a place I had bookmarked and he liked the menu, so off we went. I already knew what I wanted from looking at the online menu. Though I was tempted by the chicken saltado, I ended up getting the lomo saltado. The picture looked so good online. The dish is autéed beef filet mignon tossed with fries, tomato, red onion, aji panca pepper purée and soy sauce. Finished with pisco and served over white rice. I also got asparagus as a side. My guy got the ceviche mixto -flounder fillet, Spanish octopus, calamari and tiger shrimp lime marinated with cilantro and red onion. Served with sweet potato and choclo (Peruvian corn). As a side he got the Potato Huancaina - sliced Yukon potato chilled, covered in aji spiced cream cheese sauce and garnished with quail eggs and olives. The asparagus were huge. I thought they were just OK flavor-wise. The saltado was pretty good. I didn't think it had enough meat though. The best flavor was the fries. It soaked in all the flavors of the dish. The meat itself was rather bland, sadly. My guy liked his calamari, but the potatoes were just OK. Food was cooked up quickly and our server was pleasant. Most frustrating thing was getting to the parking lot in the back. Just an odd lot set up. But at least there is free parking! read more

Very tasty Peruvian food. Well seasoned rotisserie chicken, amazing French fries (random) with a sinful dipping sauce, and good yuca! Only complaint was the yuca sauce was cold and cheese-based. That felt wrong. All in all, great Saturday afternoon lunch at $9 for a quarter chicken and a side. read more

Las Brasas - Pollo de Las Brasas - Latin American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Juicy, flavorful chicken! Great prices! Large servings! This place doesn't need much convincing, just stand 50 feet outside the door and the wonderful wafts of chicken will surely lure you in. I came here for a late lunch (theirs ends at 4PM) and was served within 10 minutes of ordering. Service was great; my waiter was friendly, quick, and made good suggestions. I ordered the chicken sandwich, which came with thinly sliced pickles, mayonnaise, a GENEROUS amount of chicken, and chicharron, all on top of a sweet bun that tasted similar to potato bread to me (not sure what it's actually made of). It's a meat and bread sandwich, with no frills or flares. The amount of chicken given is alarmingly good. I swear they try to fit half a bird in there. The meat itself was flavorful, juicy, and a good level of spice. The chicken skin was spicy and crispy; I only wish I had more to enjoy with every bite instead of just stuck in the center. I liked the pickles too, they tasted fresh and slightly sweet. They didn't overpower the sandwich which I appreciated as well. I got it with a side of regular fries which taste amazing with the two sauces the sandwich comes with. The white one is cool and creamy and the yellow one is spicy. The waiter suggested mixing the sauces and eating my fries and sandwich with that, which turned out to be a great suggestion. Would definitely come back, I paid around $12 including tip and took some leftovers home as well! read more

Great beef, empanadas and fried plantain appetizer is tasty and comes with a great sauce. Good portions, friendly service.

Their chicken is great, authentic Peruvian flavor. Their arroz chaufa is also very good and their asparagus are almost always cooked to perfection. Their papa a la huancaina however is just okay, not bad but it feels like it's missing key ingredients like the aji Amarillo, it's also a bit waterdowned. The green sauce that comes with the chicken is also very watery. Overall this place has great chicken and most of their dishes are authentic and flavorful; a couple of the dishes and their sauces need some improvement. read more

Good experience dining outdoors. I had the Lomo Saltado. It was good. Nothing all that special, but good. Nice to have a Peruvian option intown. Not sure if I will return. read more

Went here for lunch and was really looking forward to it. Let me get right to the point, when you are given a menu, you order, you expect to pay the price listed on that menu. Not here, they charged me more for a chicken plate than listed and then refused to correct bill due to increased prices with new menu. Hard to believe they would do that and not honor the price on my menu they handed me. Left no tip whatsoever. Did I mention the chicken was pretty dang puny? Just ok taste at best.. Never will return again, ever. Not my real pic btw. read more

Food was just OK. Have for sure had much better Peruvian before. The service was pretty bad though. Took forever for a waiter to even come over and when he finally did he wrote nothing down. Never brought us water or our cocktails, we had to ask the person who later delivered our food to bring us water and our cocktails. Some of the stuff we ordered never made it to the table. Skip this one. read more

Mundo is a GREAT server, so nice. I went for lunch and Mundo recommended the las brasas wrap and I added chicharrón so good, with house fries. Whatever the sauce is, it's spicy and perfect. I'll definitely go back for dinner. 5 stars Las Brasas read more

I just want to really congratulate Las Brasas on their amazing customer service, especially with group/business orders! We got catering for a work social last night. There was a snafu at the restaurant, that altered our order, but the manager and owner was so incredibly helpful through the whole complication. Highly recommend them for dinners but especially catering!!! read more

Im Peruvian and this is not authentic Peruvian food. We also asked for our pollo a la brasa and never got the fries or salad. One of our servers was lost, maybe it was her first day. We ate outside and it was really dirty. read more

Best spot for Peruvian food. The papa rellena, lomo Saltado and ceviche are my go tos! This is coming from someone who was raised by a Peruvian. Trust me! read more

I came here by accident actually, but I don't regret it. For it to be a Saturday night, it sure is empty, but then again, it is the day before Valentine's Day so everyone is all booed up with their cliche heart shaped chocolate boxes and stuffed bears (love is a beautiful thing y'all). I was immediately seated and my waitress Marta, came to take my order. I ordered a drink called Chicha Morada which is a traditional authentic Peruvian drink with a mixture of purple corn, pineapples, cloves, cinnamon, and sugar. I was so excited to taste it, but I didn't like it at all. It was way too sweet for my liking and was comparable to diabetic-laden kool-aid, so I just ordered a soda. After my Chicha fiasco, I was ready to order. I wasn't too hungry, so I just went for some sweet potato fries which was yummy, but the portions were huge! Luckily, my brother walks in and finished them off (was that devine intervention or what)? While customer service was excellent, the restaurant was freezing! I heard the bartender joking about how they turned the heat off to save a couple of bucks and based on how it felt in there...he was serious. I ended up putting my coat back on just to stay warm. When I asked what was going on with the heat, I was told that the heating was acting up and they apologized for the temperature. Now that I think about it, maybe those candles on the tables were doing double duty: decór and ambiance and trying to warm up the place! Will I come back? Once there is central heating and air, yes. read more

We had dinner at Las Brasas on last Saturday. All dishes were delicious, but we were not 100% happy with the services. We shared Pulpo (octopus), ceviche, and a half roasted chicken. The octopus was well seasoned and tasty, ceviche was fresh, and the chicken was moist and tender. However, our waiter kept checking us and asking if we would like to order more in every 10 mins or so. We can't fully relax, enjoy our food, and carry on our conversation because of the frequent check-in services. Our dining experience was a bit discounted. read more

Nice Peruvian good. Big portions. Nice food. Friendly staff. Have to drive to this spot out Decatur-ways. Decor is a little mediocre.

The food was very good! I had the Cheviche Peru (really amazing) and my husband the Lomo Saltado, that really looked the ones that I had in Peru. The Cusco Mule (drink) was good, just my beer michelada was very spicy, but was ok! A very special notice for Marce Dalia, the waitress she was so friendly! We really recommend. read more

Wow! Where to begin? My boyfriend's favorite food and his major birthday dinner seems like a perfect fit. Beautiful outside patio. 40 minute drive from us, but Freakin Incan does not have outdoor seating. I joined the email club. Nice welcome email with a free welcome draft. Nice touch! Then I booked the birthday table through the reservation system online, very detailed, time, no of pax, outdoor preference, birthday, etc etc. I hear nothing back!!! Three days go by. It's now the birthday afternoon I call the restaurant because I'm nervous. They have no sign of my birthday reservation anywhere???? The manager Shelly blames the reservation system they are using says they have trouble with it. (I told her I was glad I called them) She said they cannot promise an outdoor table? . Okay, I get it, weather is beyond your control but a little rain does not concern us. So I'm told to call back that evening to see if we can be accommodated???? It's a major birthday I don't have a back up plan. I called back later and said we would take indoors or out, even though we have pre-existing conditions and prefer outside with the Covid situation. When we arrived the Manager Shelly made NO attempt to greet us or accommodate us on the patio. (Not even an attempt to have an outdoor table wiped off) The food was pretty good. Our server was overwhelmed and a stupid party of 6 or 7 had her doing separate checks while other tables were waiting and had not even been greeted yet. I had to go to the bar to pick up our drinks as we were nearly done with dinner and our poor overwhelmed server could not get them out to us. The drinks were just sitting there in the bar well dying. Overall we would not drive that far to go back again, if we were going to sit indoors we could have just gone to Freakin Incan after all! read more

What terrible food!!!! I'm Peruvian, this food isn't Peruvian!! Chicha morada was ughhh!!! Place horrible, but if the food would've been good it Would've been a lot better. Do not recommend coming here. read more

Very yummy but seems a bit overpriced especially for the atmosphere they provide which is more of a sports bar feel

We had Las Brasas cater our wedding last weekend and the food was absolutely amazing (as always). Jonathan went above and beyond to help us make sure our wedding day was wonderful. He was generous, dependable and kind. All of our guests were raving about the food and I'm sure they will continue talking about it for years to come. We love Las Brasas!! read more

The first time I came here in the Winter, it was super crowded, therefore I didn't really feel like I wanted to eat much. This time, in Summer, at about 7.30pm, it was less crowded. I felt much better and had a better appetite. We ordered the whole chicken, the white meat was moist. To my surprise, when I stuck my fork & knife into the white meat, juices came seeping out! That was enough to tell me I'm going to enjoy my otherwise boring dry white meat. It was flavourful. And since it was the whole chicken, my husband and I both had 2 quarts. The second quart I took was the one with the thigh. That of course was even more moist. Enough said, talking about this makes me salivate. The green dipping sauce that came with the chicken I felt I didn't need as the chick was tasty enough. Next we sort of shared the Yucca. I didn't quite like the yucca as it was cut too thick and was dry and too powdery for me to like. I much prefer the consistency of fries, but not dry yucca. So after 1.5 pieces, I passed on it. Overall, I like my ice tea with loads of lemons and my chicken. It was more than enough for me. I'll be back again next time. And will try the ceviche (again) since my first visit was almost a blurr. read more
