    Half of a Limeña Sandwich
    Alexis F.

    First time trying Peruvian food and it was amazing. My friends got tallarin and the other got lomo saltado and I was able to try a bit of each and both were also super delicious. I got the Limena sandwich. Sorry for my half picture, I completely forgot to take a pic at the start it was so good! The portion size goes with the pricing when you're looking at that just know you will have some for leftovers or you'll be very very full after your meal. The guy working at the front register is really nice and check in on us to see how everything was going. I'll definitely be back to try more things!

    Authentic Peruvian casual family owned restaurant. Everything was so good! It's a small place, but it does have a good sized patio area. There are a few parking spots that you'll come across in the front to the side, but there's also street parking.

    Limeña is probably one of the best kept secrets in the 805. My Wednesday was made a little bit better by being able to finally try some classic Peruvian dishes at Limeña Peruvian Eatery in Thousand Oaks, California. Gabriel and his team are insanely passionate about the business and their community. I was only here about 30 minutes but I felt right at home, welcomed and eager to come back for more AND WITH FRIENDS. This is the kind of restaurant where you bring a group, everyone orders a different dish, and then you pass them around to get an amazing bite after bite. With Gabriel's help I was able to narrow it down to a few dishes that I had to try. The interior here is super cozy and inviting. I grabbed a big table against the wall and was delighted to see all of the customers that rolled in after work hours. I love seeing those in the community that feel at home coming into restaurants such as this, where their native language can be spoken and all of the great Spanish hits from my youth were playing in the background. Really the ambiance and atmosphere here is so inviting and warm. What you absolutely MUST order: Ceviche Carretillero : I don't know which food gods are shining down on me this week but this was ANOTHER one of the best bites I've had yet this year. Their famous Peruvian ceviche topped with fried calamari. It totally works and knocked my socks off. It's super refreshing with the Leche de Tigre, cold halibut and sweet potato, yet topped with that perfectly crispy calamari - this is a dish I won't soon forget and honestly will be longing for. Pollo Saltado : a more well known Peruvian dish, traditionally comes with beef, chicken or seafood. This lovely stir fried dish with onion, tomatoes, fries and rice is a Peruvian staple and fan favorite here. I opted for the chicken this time and was blown away by the flavors and textures. Such a solid and hearty dish. Definitely you'll have room for leftovers. All of this delicious food washed down with a Passionfruit Juice Please come give them a try!

    The owner greeted us warmly after finding easy street parking for lunch. He provided us photos for the items we were interested in. My wife is very sensitive to cilantro flavor and thankfully we could barely taste it in the ceviche mixto and Loma soltado sauce. A very hard feat to achieve! Overall flavoring was great. We wish there were some tortilla chips that came with the ceviche. The steak could have been more tender and would have been perfect. Overall nice spot.

    Lomo Saltado

    Delicious food, clean flavors, great plating, extremely fresh ingredients. It's a casual place despite the expensive prices. But the food is definitely good. We ordered the mariscos aroz, lomo saltado, and the yucca. Yucca with the three dipping sauces was perfect. Fluffy interior, crispy exterior, and the sauces were extremely complimentary. The mariscos aroz had a lot of seafood and was so flavorful. I think this was my favorite entree. The lomo saltado was also delicious with strong flavors. It is definitely pricy, especially for the setting, but it's so rare to find Peruvian food this good. I'd definitely come here again.

    Pollo a la brasa - breast
    Melissa K.

    I've been craving pollo a la brasa for a while and finally came across this place while visiting CA and was so happy. Service was quick and super friendly! Ambience was casual but a really cute set up. I had the pollo a la brasa and it did not disappoint. Green sauce was on point and I loved the salad dressing. Yuca was fresh and fried perfectly. Chicken was deliciously seasoned and had a little kick like I love. It's slightly pricey but so is everything when eating out these days so I don't blame them. Wish I lived closer so I could keep coming back Updating this to say I tried the ice cream and yum!!! I was too full to get the one that came with plantains but I can imagine how yummy that would be!

    Pollo Saltado
    JR F.

    Had a delicious meal with the family at Limeña! Everything was on point. We ordered saltados, chaufas, tallarin, bistec, plantains. We even went for dessert and had lucuma ice cream and a superb flan. Gabriel, the owner, was so nice and welcoming. The restaurant is well kept and clean, including the restrooms. Highly recommend this little gem, especially if you're craving some latin cuisine. They know what they're doing!

    Overall very good but not great. I ordered a half chicken with two sides of salad and a side of salsa criolla. Everything was tasty. The only downside was that the chicken skin was not crispy at all. Service was good and the place is cute and clean with a few outdoor tables.

    Good Peruvian food for the Santa Clarita Valley. No need to drive over the hill to get a taste of Peru.

    Food (5/5): This place is not only delicious but consistent! I've come multiple times here during…read moremy visits to LA and the food is always the delicious. The chicken with the green sauce is amazing and the fries are so nice and crispy. The green sauce is just so yummy. The fish tacos are also really good with nice crispy fish. The lomos saltado was also super tender and flavorful. Service (5/5): No issues with the service and the food came out with a good speed. The staff was friendly and attentive. Ambiance (5/5): Chill ambiance with good music and nice views of the beach. There's now a good sit down area.

    My first time trying Peruvian food and wow!!…read more The Lomo Saltado was so tender and flavorful. The fried fish tacos were perfectly battered and fried, I liked the onions on top as it helps cut through the friedness of it all. Yucca fries were delish, dip it in the green sauce and it's perfection. The ceviche was fresh and bright. Love the citrusy sauce at the bottom, yum! The corn is not like the regular corn we have at the grocery store. It has a bit more bite to it in terms of texture like it's not soft. Passion fruit juice was absolutely needed after all day on the beach. The cake has swirls of dulce de leche, very tasty. I would come back just for the lomo saltado alone! Service was friendly and fast. They have a few tables inside and a few outside. Right on the Venice boardwalk so if you dine outside, you also get a show with your meal.

    I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet, I've eaten here for years…read more I have frequently ordered out but ordered at the restaurant once. My go to empanada is the chicken Al pastor oh my god it's a flavor bomb empanada, so delicious. I also get every so often the Nutella and bananas which I mean you can never go wrong with those flavors. The fries idk what they put in them but they are so addicting, before I know it I finish the whole thing. The service is great, the people are friendly. Parking is a big things for me and this area has plenty of it in the shopping center where it's located. Overall amazing empanadas.

    First time I was at the restaurant with a group of friends trying the empanadas for the first time…read moreto see if I wanted to order for a party on the weekend. We enjoyed the empanadas, I think for our group of 5 we ordered at least 20 empanadas and 3 plates to try. I asked a man behind the counter I need a order for 2/3 dozen on Sunday around 12pm. He said not a problem, I should call Sunday at 10 to place the order. I asked "are you sure" he responded it would only take 20 minutes. Problem number 1: No one was answering the phone Sunday morning, I called multiple times. Problem number 2: It take forever to place the order via the website AND there is a superfluous "support local fee" that cannot be opted out. I want this refunded. As someone who invited the group to dinner there Wed where we spent at least $150ish to my order for Sunday around $170, how dare a "support local fee" be added that could have been avoided if someone answered the phone. Problem number 3: The order was 30 mins late. Lack of personal awareness regarding your capability to answer phones and prepare orders on time is a problem. My first and second experience was so vastly different, beyond disappointing, on a day where I am putting things together to host a party it caused unnecessary stress I sent an email and didn't hear back and wanted to post my experience.
