Picarones

I been eating Peruvian food and also cook some plates for 40 years but I not Peruvian. I recommend this place. Authentic home made food. Family owned. We had Ceviche delicious Chicken Empanada Very good Lomito Saltado ala Pobre!! Delicioso!! For Desert we had Picarones. It's worth your visit!!! . I'm very pleased with the food, place, service. One more I was very hungry and forgot to take pictures of the ceviche and Empanada. En Español Toda la comida deliciosa, auténtica, rica. Vale la pena.

I've been 5 times now. So happy that Solano County finally has a Peruvian restaurant. Food has been good every time and the menu is a lot more extensive than when they first converted to Peruvian food. Prices are decent but at least I don't need to drive to Walnut Creek, Berkeley or beyond.

Ceviche

Came here on a Thursday night. Greeted promptly and sat immediately. Plenty of options to choose from. I went with the ceviche and the lomo saltado, both of which were recommended by our server. Highly recommend getting the ceviche; very flavorful and fresh.

Service is good but English is definitely a second language for the staff. The food was good but nothing exceptional. We had a Peruvian beef dis and fried chicken dish along with a tropical fruit ice cream . The fried chicken was a quarter of a small chicken . Crispy but not a lot of flavor . The beef dish was quasi Asian . It was ok but nothing I would come back for . The tropical ice cream was rich and tasted like butter pecan . A nice experience but nothing exciting. I wish the restaurant well but I have no reason to ever come back

Plenty of dining room tables

Ambiance was very chill and low key w some Latin American music playing on the tv. Food was delicious and tasty. My sever was very attentive and patient w me. It was my first time trying and I was happy to share my photos with my family and friends. I am happy we have a Peruvian spot in Vallejo and I can try something new! I will be back. Thank you & wish you guys the best of luck! They've been open for six months now.

Tallarín saltado de carne

A Taste of Peru That Feels Like Home From the very first bite, this restaurant transports you straight to the heart of Peru. The flavors are bold, authentic, and crafted with love by Peruvian hands that know how to honor tradition. Start with the ceviche, fresh, zesty, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat. Then the iconic lomo saltado, where juicy strips of beef are sautéed to perfection with onions, tomatoes, and that unmistakable touch of soy sauce and spices. The arroz chaufa is a savory fusion masterpiece, while the tallarines saltado brings a mouthwatering twist on stir-fry pasta that's packed with flavor. Don't miss the anticuchos, tender skewers of marinated beef heart that melt in your mouth, or the golden picarones, a sweet finish made with squash and sweet potato, drizzled in chancaca syrup. Pure Peruvian joy! To wash it all down, sip on a cold Inka Kola, a tangy glass of maracuyá (passion fruit) juice, or the deep, spiced flavors of chicha morada. Each drink is a memory, a story, a sip of home. And for a truly special treat, they're bringing out the Pachamanca (tres sabores) this Father's Day, a traditional Andean feast slow-cooked underground with marinated meats, herbs, and native potatoes. It's more than a meal, it's a celebration of culture, family, and roots. You will also appreciate the warm, attentive service from the owners and chefs. Whether you're Peruvian or just discovering its rich culinary heritage, this place will have you coming back for more. ¡Buen provecho!

Pollada !

New place in town , very good flavor!! The chicken and the potatoes you don't need to add anything to it

Tradicional Mostrito

Hidden treasure for sure, great food with large portions that always leave with 2nds for later. The service is quick and inside is very peaceful, great for family dinning.

Great place, love the enviroment. The restaurant is owned and run by a sweet little family. Their hospitality is so warming. Peruvian cuisine at its finest! I will definitely come back with my friends for next time. They even have peruvian products for sale. Inka cola was definitely a must have for me!

Spicy Cherry shrimp (5 year olds favorite)

I traveled 26 miles in a crazy rainstorm to this place because my 18-year-old son said I had to try…read moreit. I also wanted to go because I heard they had vegetarian and pescatarian options. Being a pescatarian, I am sadly not able to eat at most soul food places unless they have seafood options, which many don't. Urban Fusions even has vegan collard greens on their menu! I was expecting the place to have the traditional greasy spoon diner feel that a lot of soul food places have. Instead this place had more of a artsy urban feel to it, which I loved. My son got the fried okra and the southern 3-way plate with the fried chicken, fish, jumbo shrimp and fries, with Mac n cheese for the side. He loved it and of course couldn't finish it all, so he saved it for later. His friend had the sticky ribs and fries, which he said were amazing. I ordered the fried basa with vegan collard greens and of course fried okra, which my son and I order any time we see it on a menu. The fish was PERFECTION. It was seasoned just right and fried to the point of being crunchy but not at all greasy. The okra was flavorful and not too salty the way it can be at some places. I tasted the mac and cheese and really liked that it was seasoned with a touch of garlic. Yum. Our server Lyla was sweet and attentive. Be sure to tip her well when you come to this place. None of us could finish all of our food and had to take the remainder to go. We all left feeling super full and happy. All three of us slept like logs. Urban Fusions is a must-return spot for sure!

The catfish side was abundant and cooked perfectly. And the cornbread... hands down the best I've ever had -- moist, flavorful, with a subtle hint of lemon zest that makes it unforgettable. If you're craving urban comfort food done right, I absolutely recommend this place!

The food at Parada Walnut Creek is good, but the TV experience is extremely frustrating and poorly…read morethought out--especially given how inconsistent it is with their sister restaurant in Lafayette. Despite having TVs visible in the restaurant, Parada Walnut Creek does not show live sports at all. If you come in hoping to enjoy a game while eating or having drinks, don't bother. The TVs are either off or showing non sports programming, even during major sporting events. This is especially disappointing considering the bar seating and layout suggest that watching a game would be an option. What makes this worse is that the Lafayette location (Barranco) DOES show sports on their TVs, creating a confusing and inconsistent customer experience across the brand. Same ownership, similar cuisine, but completely different policies. If Lafayette can balance food and sports viewing, there's no good reason Walnut Creek can't. At a minimum, this should be clearly communicated. Instead, customers are left guessing--or worse, finding out after they've already ordered. Not everyone wants a "quiet, curated dining experience" all the time, and having TVs but refusing to use them for sports just feels out of touch. If you're looking for great Peruvian food and want to watch a game, go to Lafayette. If you're at Parada Walnut Creek, leave your sports expectations at the door.

I came here with my wife and another couple after getting a recommendation from a close family…read morefriend. I had previously always went to Limon for Peruvian food. However, My friend said he thought Parada was better than Limon in Walnut Creek for Peruvian food. So I figured I'd give it a shot and try something new. The ambiance was nice and there was live music being played on a Friday night. We were able to get seated without a reservation. The staff was friendly and attentive. The food wasn't amazing but not really bad either. The empanadas were really good and the corn was good too. In my opinion it's not a good value for what you get here. It was pretty pricey but the portions were very small for $18 to $25 per item. In my opinion they should consider bigger portions to provide a better value for customers. Ultimately, I think it's definitely worth trying. I'm sure there are lots of people that would love this place. It just wasn't a great place for me.

If you are looking for superb food, fantastic ambiance, and the most friendly service you will ever encounter, you will love this place. You cannot go wrong with their lomo saltado, ají de gallina, empanadas, or ceviche. Their drinks are dangerously delicious. The staff is so friendly you will feel part of the family.

As a Peruvian who cooks this food at home, I can say confidently: this restaurant doesn't deliver authentic Peruvian cuisine, and the prices don't justify the quality. We ordered the ceviche, which lacked the brightness and flavor it should have. The seco was worse...you can taste when someone hasn't actually made this dish before or even tried it themselves. The adobo tasted more like mole than traditional Peruvian seasoning. Across every dish, the flavors felt off, overseasoned or just plain confused, the sarsa de cebolla had cilantro! It's supposed to be mint! ‍. I've tried several Peruvian restaurants around the Bay, and this isn't competing. The reviews are mostly five stars, but I suspect that's from people 1000% unfamiliar with what real Peruvian food tastes like. If you've had it done right, you'll notice immediately here. The one bright spot: service was genuinely excellent. The staff was warm, attentive, and made the experience pleasant. That's the only reason this didn't feel like a complete waste. Save your money and your time.
