1st time at this restaurant. Food was good but very small portions , I could taste the MSG in the ceviche. Service was really good by 2 really nice ladies, bathroom was clean and well maintained. Not much of an ambiance I would say...salsa music playing on the TV and it was nice. We'll go back to give it a 2nd chance. read more

I order from here at least once a week. Best ceviche. I love to pickup and eat it on the beach. Super delicious and fresh

The service is very organized. The fish is all block frozen and of very low quality. If you order any white flesh fish such as ceviche or snapper, rest assured it is frozen Basa fish from polluted river waters of Vietnam and I wouldn't feed it to a stray dog. If you must go, stay away from the specials. The restaurant itself is bright and full of patrons but other than price considerations, I can't imagine why. read more

Locura 305 is one of those Miami Beach spots that just gets it right every time, cozy, warm, and inviting with a laid-back vibe that feels perfect for a casual date night or a chill dinner with friends. The service is super friendly and attentive (you're actually taken care of, not just "checked on"), and the food brings big, bold Peruvian flavors that taste fresh and homemade. My absolute favorite dish is the octopus, perfectly tender with that ideal char, packed with flavor, and the kind of plate you'll think about the next day. If you're in North Beach and want a meal that hits on ambiance, service, and quality, this place is a must. read more

The menu was expansive with quite a few choices. Our meals were tasty & delicious. The service was quick and our server was very pleasant and answered all our questions thoroughly. The decor of the restaurant was filled with plants, live edge tables and other Peruvian decor. read more

I stopped by Locura305 for lunch today after a nearby construction site visit. Located right on Collins Avenue in North Beach, it has a few street parking spots and is located near a city parking lot as well. There were a few tables outside although I ate inside in air conditioned. The space looks very clean, classy and had a TV playing Peruvian & other Spanish pop songs. My waitress was very pleasant and helpful with recommendations on a very generous portion, and explained the differences between their lunch specials and regular a la carte plates. The plates are a great "bang for your buck". I do want to come back and try their chaufa rice, as well as some of their Peruvian-Asian dishes & pisco I saw on the menu. For a workday lunch, I enjoyed their "Pollo a lo Pobre". This was two very large chicken breasts , a fried egg, french fries & sweet plantains on a bed of white rice. This plate was perfect for protein loading, and had a hint of the lime & garlic seasoning from the traditional pollo a la brasa. The fries were nice and crispy, and the rice not overly sticky. I also enjoyed a very essential cortadito after for much needed caffeine. read more

This place was recommended by one of our friends and we were so excited to try it out! The first time we swung by they were having a grand opening special that was and appetizer and entree for $15, we were able to try a few different items on the menu since we got a little of everything. I really liked everything we ate, specifically the anticuchos! The second time around they no longer had the special (I think it's now only a lunch special) so we tried their ceviche and a Chifa dish. I really liked the Chifa dish, the ceviche was okay. One odd note is that both times we visited they lock the main door. You have to wait for someone to unlock the door to be let inside. The first time we thought the restaurant was closed but there was a local nearby waiting for her takeout and she urged us to wait because the food was worth it! We did notice they were super busy that day so we waited until til a spot opened up and they opened the door. The second time (months later) they told us it was because they were working on the AC and didn't want to let out the cold air. Other than that service is great and we've had positive experiences! read more

Locura 305 - Ceviche - Peruvian Near Me - Miami Beach, Florida

Peruvian food here overall is fantastic. We have similar Peruvian restaurants near our home but none compare to Locura 305. We drive 40 minutes to eat here. The ceviche is like no other as well as the jalea and chaufa. Food is always fresh. Highly recommend. read more

Diners, Beware!! This place advertised a $17 dollar special, so we thought we might try it, instead of dining at the Locura Marina restaurant next door, where we have had several excellent meals in the recent past. It is worth waiting because you know you are going to get a very good meal. Locura 305. The food was dreadful in every respect, the service nothing to speak of, other than they seemed disinterested in recommending anything on their menu, which I now fully understand. What we ordered was the Churrasco Steak, which was chewy, very small piece of meat and tasteless, accompanied by some overcooked fries, and 1 egg on top of the rice, was not worth eating. My recommendation, after having eaten at many excellent restaurants on Collins Avenue by the beach, is to avoid this place at all costs, even if they offer you the food for free. A terrible experience by any definition, and don't waste your time or money dining at this place which I can guarantee you will be disappointed with. read more

I ordered from UberEats for dinner and my mom and I loved the food. We shared the food and the portions were great for sharing. We ordered the Jalea (mixed seafood) with yuca fries and the pork chops comes with white rice, sweet plantain and one fried egg. Everything was delicious! The Jalea was perfectly breaded and seasoned. It had the red onions and tomatoes mixture that is so good. You also get three types of sauce (tartar, spicy yellow sauce and red sauce) The pork chops were grilled and seasoned well and the rice was cooked perfectly. We really enjoyed everything and had enough food for leftovers of the next day. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures but I will next time because we're definitely going to order from them again. read more

Love it! Great flavors, easy to find, great price, customer service ( Excellent) Parking is available around the corner- Free after 7:00pm. We had an Amazing and Delicous Experience. -we ordered: Anticuchos Papa a la huancaina Lomo saltado Chaufa de mariscos Dessert - suspiro limeño. The Maracuya ( drink) was so tasty and refreshing. The place is very clean and friendly- I will highly recommend to friends and Families. The last but no least, we came all the way from San Francisco, CA to find great Peruvian food and Locura305 went beyond my expectations. Compare to Bay Area prices this place was very competitive. Do not miss this place! It is worth the try! read more

You can't beat the portions and the cost here. $15 or $20 for an appetizer and entree. I was full off of the appetizer alone. The service was excellent, they seem to really care. read more

I am sitting here right now and I am fuming. We were going to Locura Marina, right next door but on Sunday they close at 7:30, so we decided to go here instead. they brought the menu right away, including their specials and forgot about us. We sat here patiently for 40 minutes until my husband went in politely and asked if they could take our order. They finally come to take our order and tell us that none of the special are available. I am not talking about 1-2 specials, I am talking about 2 pages full of specials. None were available. I could ask for the same dishes but it would be a look a cart and cost double. This after they gave us the menu with the specials and left us 40 minutes looking at them. I feel we are either being discriminated against ( my husband is black) or they got upset because he asked if they could take our order. Now I understand why this place is so empty while the other one next to it is packed. read more

A satisfying, very affordable meal in North Beach is right here! This sister restaurant of Locura Marina next door has the more casual cuisine, as we found out, without ceviche. But your other Chifa and Peruvian staples can be found here. Their air conditioning had broken when we visited for an early dinner, so they had ceiling fans running and their door locked to prevent people from opening the door often and letting the cooler air out. We had to wait for over 20 minutes outside the front door in the humid weather in hopes of seeing someone coming out so that the door would be unlocked. We saw there was only one main server working on all of the tables in the restaurant, with another one popping in and joining the service well into our meal, so despite their seeing us outside, the staff did not let us in or immediately seat us when we came inside. We were talking about finding another restaurant in the area when the server told us to sit at a table she recently cleared. The ensuing meal turned out to be a little worth that wait! We happened to come to the restaurant and be seated when many other tables were finishing their meal or were paying their bills. This meant the service was more prompt than we thought it would be, despite the two servers available for all the tables. We had the $15 all day lunch special which included an appetizer, an entree and a soft drink. I was able to get a chicha morada included with my meal, which was the ultimate Peruvian treat. By the way, we asked about the soup of the day and were told it is only available from Monday-Friday. The Anticuchos were slightly tough to cut but well seasoned and grilled for what it is (presumably cow heart), and the potatoes that accompanied them were tender but firm on the outside from the grill. The Papa o Yuca Huancaina (also an appetizer) was filling from just one bite, from the well cooked yuca and creamy Huancaina sauce. I got the Kam Lau Wantan con Arroz Blanco, thinking it's a nice combination plate of pork, chicken and shrimp. The tamarin sauce that dressed the stir fry was a little sweet for my taste, but I can see how its duck sauce like taste with soy sauce notes is pleasing to other diners. The fried ground chicken wantons were great with the thick sauce. I just wish there had been more filling! Despite the air conditioning and staffing situation, the restaurant is a good choice for not just Peruvian food but a solid casual meal in all the touristy dining options in the North Beach area. Give it a try if you're ever in the area! read more

Found this spot on a walk through North Miami Beach and found it to be a really nice spot. Great service as well from the minute I walked in the door. The food wasn't bad but nothing to really rave for except for the Arroz con Pollo. The rice was very well seasoned but the piece of Chicken that came with it was a bit dry. It was about a 1/4 chicken if I'm not mistaken. I also ordered a mango juice but the juices were not really fresh and more so blended with ice. I also had a sangria that was a bit too sweet for my personal taste but overall the food wasn't bad and the service was on point. read more

Fantastic restaurant. I got the traditional ceviche - it was firing on all cylinders; tangy, savory, lovely mouthfeel.. great. The manager and servers were very kind and made great menu recommendations. The ambiance was great - we sat at a rustic wood table, the kind that a large tree slice is shellacked and looks real fancy. Honestly, very good and I would definitely return. read more
