I met a friend for a late lunch at Brasas Peruanas. The restaurant name "Brasas Peruanas" is…read moreSpanish and means "Peruvian embers" or "Peruvian hot coals." A little irony in that...Peruvian restaurant with a Spanish name. Their authentic Peruvian cuisine has bold flavors and traditional charcoal cooking. Brasas Peruanas is a medium sized restaurant with seating on both sides of the bar and at the bar. It is warm, inviting and laid-back...ideal for family meals as well as friend meet ups. My friend and I both had their standout dish, pollo a la brasa, a Peruvian classic (chicken marinated with spices and slow roasted over charcoal until the skin is crisp and the meat stays juicy and flavorful.) The pollo came with a green salad and French fries. The plates were quite generous and tasty. Perla, our server, was friendly and bubbly. Overall, good dining experience...next time we will try the seafood fried rice. Someone ordered this rice seating next to us and it looked amazing!

I found Inka Chicken to be awesome. If you like Peru's cuisine, you'd love Inka Chicken. The…read morelocation is easy to get, it's at the corner of Wells Branch and Owen Tech Blvd. It's not quite in Austin and not in Pflugerville, it's in the middle of the two. For lunch, I made ordered the Naked Burrito. It has the contents of the burrito but no tortillas to make it, made into a salad. They serve with a variety of dressings. The service was pleasant. And very alternative in the server's tasks. He deserved his tip (18 %). Yes, he was that good. They also have chickens in various dishes. I like the charbroiled style either a full size, half and leg quarters. They are open daily. Their hours are 11:00 am till 9:00 Monday thru Saturday. Sunday is 12:00 pm-8:00 am. The restaurant is decorated as if you were transported to Peru.

Hubby loves rotisserie chicken and we saw Inka while we were out and decided to try it. Needless to…read moresay, he and my daughter were pleased. They loved it! I got a beef empanada and my husband said, I thought you didn't like those. Well I'm not sure where I got the last one but this one was GOOD! It is seasoned well and the sauce on the side is perfect for it. If you like rotisserie chicken, then you need to try it.

really enjoyed everything about llama queen. The esthetic,…read morethe service, the food and the cocktails and the over all vibe! I will say, everything was a bit on the pricy side. Majority of seating is out doors, plenty of shade, fans and misters there were also heaters sitting around when cool weather strikes. Our waitress was kind and knowledgeable about the offerings , she was sure to check in with us through our time here. The arroz mariscos was my favorite dish, topped with the spicy sauce they served separately, I did noticed there was 6 muscle shells but 3 of them were empty. we also had the following: causa limena - it was good I really liked the civiche on top, the chicken salad wasn't too amazing and the potato was intresting, the juice at the bottom was delish! arroz chaufa - this was a fried rice dish , it did have a little cinnamon in it so beware if you don't like cinnamon/ lomo à la hauncaina- I tried the noodles which were a great texture- they sauce it was served in was okay- wasn't crazy about it and I didn't try the meat but heard it was amazing! tacu tacu - pan fried potatoe pattie toooed w onions and cilantro, loved this dipped in the spicy sauce we had on the side! papa andinas -not a favorite, tastes plain with lots of flavorless seasoning dusted on them- they were okay once dipped in the sauces served on the side but the potatoes them self needed salt and maybe another seasoning to make them pop sarza criolla - just a mix a red onions, cilantro and seasonings- a few dishes were already topped with this mixture. 10/10 recommend checking them out !

Lima Criolla Peruvian Restaurant, located in Lincoln Village on IH-35, looks very inviting from the…read moreoutside looking in. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor tables are covered with blue umbrellas to protect you from the pesky sun. So I walk into Lima with a food blank slate. I was not super hungry, but I wanted something to quench my hunger. I ordered the Aguadito soup (chicken soup with rice and cilantro) and plantains along with a Alfajores cookie (made with dulce de leche). The soup came with chicken on the bone along with fluffy rice, peas and carrots. OMG...this soup was amazing!!! It tasted like something your grandmother would prepare. I am a picky when it comes to plantain (no green, hard plantain for me). The menu stated, "golden, caramelized sweet plantain, fried to perfection). Lima had me caramelized. My ideal plantain is sweet with a crispy edges. Lima's plantains are my new favorite! Don't tell anyone, but I ate them with my hands...like a little kid. The cookie was also baked to perfection...really enjoyed my cookie. When I walked in, I was immediately escorted to a table by a friendly hostess and server. She was quiet-spoken and super nice. This was an excellent dining experience...will definitely be back...sooner than later!

The black beans were rich and flavorful, the empanadas were crisp and satisfying, and the Yuca con Guasacaca dish was so good it honestly surprised me.

We went with another couple friend so we ordered 3 appetizers:…read more - tequeños - mini empanadas - arepitas All were solid choices! Really couldn't go wrong with any of those. Our server was great! She was nice, checked on us and refilled our waters frequently. Entrees: - Pabellion Criollo: meat was a little too salty for my friend's taste but she said the rice balances it out really well. They accommodated her request for scrambled instead of fried eggs. - Asado Negro: Sooo good. It was like, beef and gravy, but better. They allowed me to sub the beans for extra rice - Surf and turf sandwich: Hubby said it was okay but adding more of the green sauce helped a bit - Filet mignon (can't remember the exact name): our other friend liked his staff as well! They also accommodated his request to have the egg on the side. I guess it could be a hole in the wall place since it's in an unassuming small business strip but the music was good and everyone loved the food! Be warned: there is only 1 bathroom so plan your potty break accordingly...

THE FOOD HERE IS AMAZING…read more Peruvian food that's as good as my grandma's is hard to come by...esp in Texas. This food truck is as real as it gets, the Lomo Saltado is to die for, and I will be coming back to try the rest of the menu. It is hard to find, so just be on the lookout when you drive up the street, you should see a tent with a blue table underneath it that's next to the truck. The owner is very friendly and made me feel at home, excellent service. The ambiance is very authentic, he even has a small bluetooth speaker playing latin music and everything. The sauce that comes with the Lomo Saltado is a heavy hitter too, he makes it himself. This is a must!!

I have been wanting to try this place for a while now and I finally got the chance. Located in a…read moresmall unassuming lot, this food truck is a one man show that serves up delicious Peruvian food. I got the lomo saltado, a classic for me, and it was worth the visit. The meat was tender and flavorful, the fries were crispy, and the sauce was addicting. I got there right at opening and waited over an hour for my food. Note that I also came in the middle of summer so everyone walked out of there with mosquito bites. Luckily, he did have bug repellent available for use. I'd come back to try more food, but would probably wait until the winter.

It matched well with a glass of the wine outside on the sidewalk patio, the sun setting and the sounds of the square at night. You don't have to have a meal - but if you're hungry you should. If instead you want something light and a glass of wine outside, that happens here too.

The price is now $25 per person and half price for kids. The buffet includes so many delicious fresh salads, fruits, plantains, and pastries, and the entrees from the kitchen (you get to order two with an adult brunch and one for kids) are always great -- salmon tacos, chilaquiles, waffles and pancakes with fancy toppings like mocha whipped cream and fresh berries. Reserve your table on Google and they will have it waiting for you with your name on a sign, which is a nice touch. Really great people here!
