    This is truly Peruvian food. Delicious!!! Service is great. We try Pescado A Lo Chorrillana - perfect! Yuca con Salsa hacking and Causa de Atun - Delicious!!! Ceviche de Camarones!!! Lots of locals eat her, so you know its good.

    I been in the hunt for Peruvian food, since the fall of one of my favorites Marios in melrose. I found this place in the city of Van Nuys The classic bollos with ají it's just warming! I got to try their lomo saltado, bistec a lo pobre, some of their Chinese Peruvian menu everything was amazing i would definitely drive that 45 min again Service it's great, they treat you like if they know you, that always great, ambience it very familiar

    Parking for Machu Picchu was fairly easy on the street, and if you come after 6pm, you may even find free street parking! The inside was fairly quiet for a Wednesday evening, but the food did not disappoint! The staff were also extremely patient, since my friend and I weren't active speakers of Spanish. They started us with some bread and salsa; the salsa was new to me, but that green one slapped! We with the Papas a la Huancaina, and it exceeded my originally low expectations. (It's potatoes and cheese, a little hard to get excited over.) The potatoes were boiled to softness, and the cheese sauce, what's their secret? It was not super salty and packed quite a nice kick. If nachos were paired with these, the entire party bag will be gone! For dinner, I felt adventurous and had their Bistec a la Chorrillana. Everything was perfect as could be; the beef was juicy, tomatoes sweet, onions crisp - even the rice was fully finished! I looked over at my friend's Lomo Saltado... gone! The restaurant overall doesn't boast a large staff, but it's clear how attentive they are to all guests regardless of background. Paying may take a bit, so I recommend walking it up if in a rush. Overall a nice spot for a sit-down meal - will definitely be returning!

    I was skeptical about this place at first as it was empty upon entering. I was offered some tea, that was too slimy for my liking. I also had the lomo saltado which was good, I've had better but again wasn't bad at all. The aguadito de pollo was really good though. Service was good, as the waiter was very attentive (probably because we were the only ones to serve lol). Not sure if this is a place I'd return to right away, maybe if I'm in the mood for some aguadito de pollo.

    I love trying new places around my neighborhood. This place did not disappoint. Food was amazing. Service was ok. She wasn't rude or anything but she didn't check in nor did he refill our cups with waters. I got the machu pichu Salgado and it was a 10/10. Would come again forsure.

    This is by far my fav Peruvian restaurant! They make the best chicken chaufa with amazing wok char- this is my fav fried rice and it tops all the Asian places I've tried. We come here often and love everything we've tried, from the steak plate to the tamale, and the fried platter and ceviche. Make sure to get the onions! Service is friendly and it's a cozy simple environment. Metered parking out front and a small lot in the back.

    This is my second time coming to this restaurant. I haven't been able to a better Peruvian place other than what I've had in Miami. I bring everyone here to taste my culture!! It's incredible with amazing portions and honest pricing. Delicious and highly recommended!!

    The food was very tasty , the ceviche was fresh, and the Chinese noodles were delicious. The service was attentive, and the restaurant was very clean. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely stop by.

    This place was so delicious. I ordered ceviche and it was very good. I love the fact that they put a sweet potato in the ceviche very good. The service was very good and a very, just a very quaint little place on Van Nuys Blvd. I highly recommend this place if you're in the mood for ceviche or any other thing on the menu Can't wait to go back

    Food is good but the portions are small. I'd give it 4 stars but it's expensive for what you get.

    I ordered the $1 Taco Tuesday special online and it did not disappoint! Such a great deal,…read moreespecially for the quality you get. The ordering process was quick and easy, and my food was ready right on time when I arrived. I was in and out with no hassle, which I really appreciated. The tacos were delicious -- the pineapple added the perfect touch of sweetness that balanced so well with the savory flavors. The sauces were also amazing and really brought everything together. Each bite had a great mix of flavor and freshness. If you're looking for a tasty and affordable Taco Tuesday option, this online special is definitely worth it. I'll absolutely be ordering again!

I got a whole chicken with the sides and I decided to try the Peruvian ceviche. The chicken was good, seasoning was there. It was already precut for me so that's was kind. I was really looking forward to the ceviche and it was not good. The lime juice or the leche de Tigre was very bitter, and it just didn't taste good... Something was off about the ceviche, perhaps it spoiled quickly as my drive back home was an hour, i unfortunately had to throw it away because it did not taste edible. Service is quite friendly, and quick. I'd come give it a second try for the ceviche, maybe it was not the freshest batch or my commute was too long but I don't think food spoils that rapidly. Either way I definitely recommend the rotisserie chicken with the sides!

    A happy birthday lunch was had here for our first visit - and we're better for it. I got the…read moreBurrito Saltado and my birthday buddy tried the Lomo Saltado. We shared a side of fried plantains. I'm a sucker for a lot of fusion-esque burritos that wrap up traditional cuisine dishes in a flour tortilla. The tortilla usually tastes of higher quality (ALWAYS a highlight) and I was most interested in having a familiar dish spun a little differently. It did not disappoint when it came to the expected flavoring of the veggies and lomo saltado style steak. There was plenty of filling and it sang with the aji verde and orange pepper sauces, but it ultimately was not a revelation. The traditional Lomo Saltado plate was not culinary brilliance either, but it was the favored of the two selections, as it featured the grill in the back of the kitchen more effectively. Anything that is exemplary of mainstay dishes from a regional category is still very special, and this plate will be worth returning for. That, and of course the Inka Cola I've always had to order with my Peruvian plates, where available. This place boasts really good roasted chicken and when you see working men order the la brasa by the basketfull for lunch, you start making conclusions about what an authentic experience at an establishment looks like. So we plan to eat what the regulars do upon the next visit. We weren't burned for starting with the cow though. Guess I had to have my birthday steak one way or another.

    So sad to find out they're permanently closed. Best Peruvian chicken in the valley, hands down. Now…read moreI'll have to wait til I'm in LA to stop by Pollo a La Brasa.
