Beautiful restaurant with good service…read more Our favorites were: ceviche classic, beef empanadas, fried sushi. Will return to try more dishes.

Hate to do this ... but…read more Awful service. Like, catastrophically bad. We were seated all nice enough (we had reservations). Drinks took ten minutes. Appetizers were on time. Then we sat ... and sat -- two hours for the entrees. During the wait, the untrained waiter asked for our desert orders. I mean, WTF! Food ok. Drinks ok. Nice menu. But the untrained and disengaged servers / kitchen / management... So shoddy. Do not come here.

Let me start by saying, I really love this resturant! This is my second time going there, as I went…read morethere last week with friends, and wanted to go again as their menu was extensive! I wanted to wait and give a review after the first time as I hoped it wasn't one of those, ("the first time it was great! The second time...not so much.), let me reassure you that was not the case with Autentico! On my first visit, I had a seafood selection, and it was so fresh and so good! I was also checking out my buddy's chunks of beef that were part of his meal, and wanted that too! He gave me a chunk and it was so tender, juicy and good, I knew on my next visit, I would have to order some form of their steak! The service was spot on, and food order time to table, was exceptional! My next visit came yesterday, and yes I ordered a steak! It was a late Friday afternoon, and even though they were busy with a few large tables of people, service was still outstanding and the food was even better than the first time! If you have read some of my reviews, by the time I think to take pictures, there's not much left to take a picture of! Also, I know some people just take pictures and not much else, and while something can look really good in a photo, you have to dig into it to unearth what's really good about the dish, and everything I have tried at Autentico, was superb! I ordered the NY Strip with fries and instead of the rice that comes with it, I asked if I could substitute veggies for the rice? They said no problem! While the first time I had a couple bottles of their Corona, which was very cold and was also provided with a frosted glass, this time I asked for a Modelo Especial. I was told they had it on tap! Major points, as I love all of Modelo's products especially the stouts! It was just my buddy from work this time and me, and we had such a great meal and the ambiance was awesome! I had joked my first time visiting there while driving in, that there was an Irish resturant right next to it! I mentioned that we should go there after for a couple pints. We never got around to it, as we were too full both times to make it in. But that resturant is in the back of my mind for a future visit! So if you do go to Autentico, you won't be disappointed. It's a great location that's worth the drive, and an exceptional resturant!

Back again after their recent rebranding from Pio Pio to Autentico. Came with the same friends who…read morefirst introduced this spot to me. I ordered the seafood mix paella and it was so delicious that I finished the entire portion by myself. I initially wanted to save it for dinner. I'd love to come back again to try other food on their expanded menu. Likely the most authentic Peruvian food spot in nova.

TLDR: A fantastic game day spot with an energetic atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious…read morePeruvian food. The only downside was the limited and not very clean restrooms during a busy event. First, let's give an applause to their social media team for helping me discover this place. The game day promotions caught my attention, and they absolutely delivered. The decor, atmosphere, and energy were all fantastic. You could tell Inca Social was well prepared, with a fully staffed team that stayed attentive throughout our visit. Whether it was quickly finding us an extra chair or constantly refilling our water, the service was excellent. The food was equally impressive. I highly recommend the lomo saltado, and the pasta served alongside it was surprisingly delicious. The Inca Balls were also a great appetizer with a light, crispy exterior and a savory filling. The drinks were solid as well and rounded out the experience nicely. My only complaint is that there are only two restrooms, and given how busy the restaurant was, they weren't as clean as I would have hoped. Overall, this is a lively spot with great food, excellent service, and a fun atmosphere that I'd happily return to.

I had been here before and the food was not bad at all as well as the service. I decided to go for…read moreMother's Day since I had not been here in years and was hopeful the food would be the same if not better. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Food selection was smaller, food was not worth the price and service was awful. We did not have a reservation but saw several tables open. They sat us near the welcome booth as we were a family of 5. We were given menus but not enough utensils and thought eventually we would get it along with the menus. There seem to be a huddle of employees in the entrance of booth and the waiter did not show up for another 5 minutes. Another 5 minutes passed and a different waitress showed up asking if we were ready. She did not tell us of any specials and we had to ask her the price of the bistec a lo pobre which she said was $26. We also asked her about other items we saw at the online menu but she said they weren't available. We decided to stay and order ceviche, lomo saltado, anticuchos and bistec a lo pobre. My husband ordered a beer and I ordered a chicha. There was no physical menu for children and she verbally told us the options. I ordered chicken tenders and fries for my toddler. She took our orders and food came out after 15 minutes. The meat was missing the sauce the menu said it came with, the ceviche tasted very lemony and the chicken tenders were more like chicken balls. The waitress never showed up with our drinks and we decided to just eat and go as the staff seemed to want to socialize more than tend to the customers. Once we were done, we asked for boxes and the check. Apparently, gratuity was already included and maybe thats why the service was so bad? She hardly came to check on us and to top it off she was surprised when we told her drinks never showed up to please take it off check. She didn't apologize or asked how the food was. She gave us boxes and off we left. Later, we realized the bistec a lo pobre was $28 instead of $26 and we had ordered two. I just wanted to leave at that point and not wait another 5 minutes for waitress to fix her mistake. The ad, as shown in picture, said all moms receive a flower but I guess having three kids with me wasn't enough for me to get one. We also noticed when we left their website said a party of 6 or more has gratuity included but we were a party of 5. What is shown online is very different than what you get in person and if the food was great I would gladly go back for at least takeout. Food is not worth it, the service for Mother's Day made it worst and the environment was mediocre at best. Prices were inconsistent and menu is not appealing. Not sure what happened here but changes should be made at least for Mother's Day.

My friend raved about the Arlington location. I was visiting family in Fairfax and she asked me to…read morebring her some food back. Although she had never tried the Fairfax Blvd location, she wanted to take the risk. She placed the order online. When I arrived, the order was not ready. They also hadn't followed the notes she entered. She wanted her coleslaw in a separate container away from her hot food since Richmond is a few hours away. After getting the order remade appropriately, we hit the road. The food traveled well and made the car smell SO good. Upon arrival to my friend's house, she collected her food and went inside to reheat and eat it. She still prefers the Arlington location.

I got the quarter chicken (white meat) with fried rice and pinto beans. While the chicken could have had crispier skin and been a little juicier, it was still a very tasty and satisfying meal. When I return, I'll try the cilantro rice and get a side of ceviche. Service was quick and friendly. Tables were clean. All in all, it's on par with the majority of Peruvian chicken joints I've been to, but I don't mean that as a dig. I'm planning on retiring sooner than later!

First, the seasoning of the yummy charcoal-grilled chicken is really nice. Second, the yucca fries are wonderful, but you may have to wait a few minutes for a new batch as they are a popular item. Third, this Super Chicken was renovated in summer 2025 - with new signs for menu options. It still has a casual vibe if you choose to dine in. The only minus is that prices have risen a lot since 2022 (as with many restaurants). But the family specials are a treat every now and then.

It came with a spicy cheese possibly Monterrey jack, onions, and jalapeño peppers. The portion was just right and enough to fill me up for dinner really. My boyfriend ordered some type of pastry that appeared to be very rich in calories. We both ordered regular Cafe Americanos with leche even though it was late afternoon. Therr was one Server helping everyone in the cafe and I thought she did an awesome job. The cafe is clean and bright and comfortable enough for short stays. In other words, it's not the type of cafe where one would just han out for an extended period of time. Everyone here was very cordial and we had a relaxed time.
