    Pescado Frito & Maracuya
    Vin L.

    Pescado frito, or fried fish, is always a winning choice. The flavor of the fish is incredible, and paired with rice and onions, it's straight fire. It's one of those meals I'm always happy to eat. Don't forget to add some ají verde to take that flavor to another level.

    Beef lomo saltado. Excellent!
    Krissy R.

    I went here on a date friday night, I picked this place because I was craving Lomo saltado and it was the best I had in the past. So the name has changed, I haven't been here in about six months and I am assuming it is under a new management. The food was still excellent but I did deduct a star because there was only a few pieces of steak on my plate and before the meat ratio to fries and rice was much more generous and fair. Also, they do not serve the hot bread with butter before your main course anymore, I had to ask for it and was given one small cut off piece of what seemed like french bread, not the tasty rolls they used to serve. Nonetheless, the marinade on this plate remains the most flavorful and top tier I have ever tried and I will be back soon. The prices have gone up slightly but it was not an issue because the gentleman I was with paid for everything and told me to enjoy and get whatever I wanted. They ran out of inca soda in a can but again, not a dealbreaker. The waitress working that evening made sure we had everything we needed, she seated us promptly. She was polite, efficient, and friendly. This is forever my spot for delicious and fresh peruvian food.

    Lomo saltado

    My family and I have been coming here for a while and we have always loved the food and service. The Leche de tigre is also a great option, we will continue to come here.

    Aji De Gallina hard to find a good tasting ají, this is the best I've had.

    I use to live near here and was a frequent customer but now I live in Arizona and this was my first stop back. Food is always amazing and hard to find great tasting Peruvian and ají sauce. Services was excellent. Give them a try, you won't regret it!

    Hands down the BEST Lomo Saltado I've ever had I've tried Lomo Saltado from at least 30 different places over the years, and Mi Patria left me speechless. From the first bite, I knew I found the one. The beef was juicy and tender, the onions and tomatoes were perfectly cooked, and those golden fries? Soaked up every drop of that rich, savory sauce like they knew they had a job to do. But the real showstopper? That green sauce. Spicy, bold, and exactly what it should be. Not watered down, not shy -- it's got real heat and real flavor. It ties the whole meal together like a perfect final note. Mi Patria isn't just good -- it's unforgettable. If you know Peruvian food, you'll taste the love and authenticity right away. And if you don't? This is where you start.

    Lomo Saltado

    Welp, just had this for dinner last night and I was first stunned by the price increased for just a plate of Lomo Saltado. I used to pay around $19 and I was charged 24.92. No drink just the plate! The rice also tasted old and was hard. I didn't really enjoyed it. I'll most likely not return and just grab my craving elsewhere.

    PROS: - The Lomo Saltado was BOMB. - The prices appear to be cheaper than the regular Peruvian place I used to go to. - The portions were very generous. I was definitely full after my meal. - The GREEN SAUCE was the boss! It was very flavorful, but not too spicy. - Not sure if those other reviews about getting a little bit of meat was just a fluke, but my Lomo had a ton of meat. I also liked that they put a lot of onions as well. - The lady that prepared my order was very friendly. CONS: - None. FINAL THOUGHTS: My wife and I have found our new Peruvian cuisine spot! We will be back.

    We almost didn't make it through the front door, but I'm glad we did…read more When we first pulled up, the restaurant honestly looked closed. It was dark, empty, and not very welcoming from the outside. My wife and son were ready to go somewhere else, but I was determined to find some good ceviche and try Peruvian food. We walked a little farther and found another door with an "OPEN" sign, went inside, and sure enough--they were open. The food ended up being the reason I'm glad we stayed. I ordered the fish ceviche ($20.95), and it was really, really good. The fish tasted fresh and high quality, with nice-sized chunks and plenty of lime--which I personally love. The onions were great, and the potato on the side was surprisingly good. I actually wish they had given me a little more of it. The crunchy Peruvian corn was a nice addition, and even the little pieces of plantain were good, and I'm normally not a plantain person. My wife had the shrimp ceviche ($22.95). The shrimp were whole and tasted fresh, and the pickled onions were really good. It was definitely very lime-forward. She felt it could have used another ingredient or two, maybe something like cucumber, although that may just be because she's more accustomed to Mexican-style ceviche. For the price, she also expected a little more on the plate, but overall she thought it was very good. Our son had a chicken plate with a thin, well-seasoned chicken cutlet, egg, fries and white rice. He loved it and gave it a 10/10. Even the complimentary toasted bread was excellent--warm enough that we finished the whole basket. The biggest thing holding this place back is the service and overall atmosphere. The lady helping us was very nice, but the experience just felt a little strange and slow. We were literally the only people dining in the restaurant, aside from someone who came in to pick up an order, and it still took around 40 minutes to receive our food. With a toddler, that's a long time to wait. We also ordered Modelos with lime and salted rims. Mine was fine, but my wife's beer was warm and she ended up asking for ice. That said, it looks like a small, possibly family-run operation with only a few people working, and the food definitely tasted freshly prepared. So I can appreciate that good ceviche isn't necessarily coming out of the kitchen in five minutes. Overall, we WILL be back because the food was genuinely good. I just think they could have something really special here if they improved the service, made the restaurant look more obviously open and welcoming from outside, improve the vibe and tightened up the wait times. Fix those things and this could be a really nice little hidden gem in Uptown. The ceviche alone is worth coming back for.

From the moment the food hit the table, you could tell everything was prepared with fresh ingredients and genuine care. Every bite tasted authentic, flavorful, and made with love. I've been searching for true Peruvian cuisine for quite some time, and I'm beyond grateful that Tyn at Onyx Nail Lounge recommended this hidden gem. The ceviche was incredibly fresh, the flavors were vibrant, and every dish brought back that comforting feeling of homemade food. It's rare to find a place that combines quality, authenticity, and consistency so well, but Bailey Peruvian Cuisine does exactly that. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the service makes you feel like family. A huge thank you to Tyn from Onyx Nail Lounge for pointing me in the right direction. If you're looking for amazing nails with an unrushed experience, definitely check him out too you'll thank me later! Great recommendations come from great people. As for Bailey Peruvian Cuisine, all I can say is WOW. This place deserves all the support. If you're in Uptown Whittier and craving authentic Peruvian food made with fresh ingredients and incredible flavors, do yourself a favor and stop by. I came in with high expectations and left already planning my next visit. Highly recommended. A true Uptown Whittier gem!

The rice was also seasoned and aromatic. The beans were just okay, a little watery. The red sauce had a strong kick and spicy in a good way. The aji was nice and had a bit of spice as well. The pico de gallo was standard and the chimichuri was okay. It's a smaller establishment with some seating inside, but seems most people take it to go. The place felt fairly full when we arrived. The staff were very friendly. Overall was about $37 with tax. Very good quality and quantity at that price!

I would describe this place as that saying "Jack of all trades, master of none". I came with a group and we all ordered a variety of dishes, yet nothing stuck out. For a small space they have 1 waitress who needs better skills, she may be new. I say this because even as she brought out dishes she brought things out in pieces (got my shrimp cocktail, then had to ask for crackers, then had to ask for lemon, then had to ask for salt and pepper). Some points for the food: Talllarin - chicken was dry, pasta good Bandeja paisa - 7/10 arepa dry, no beef or beans Shrimp cocktail - very little shrimp, little to no juice, like a salsa mix in the cocktail Gyoza - good can't mess that up Lomo - eh fries came warm not hot, doesn't look like a traditional sauce The good things about this place: Good little green salsa and they served a good chicha de mora. Would I come back? No. You can definitely find better quality food and cheaper prices at a regular 1 cuisine restaurant. I would like to add presentation was nice on the food but nothing tasted quite right...
