The mixtos ceviche was tangy and wish it came with some chips but it was good when eaten with our meal. The sweet plantains are perfectly crisped. Lomo saltado steak was also perfectly cooked. The restaurant is spacious. Service was quick and attentive. We got a great deal with Groupon the second time around so check there for discounts. Parking is easy out front and they also have outdoor seating. Enjoy!

This is one of my favorite places. The service is always excellent, the drinks are delicious, and…read morethe vibes are always on point. I've loved every single food item i've tried from here, all the different ceviches, the Tallarines Verdes, Adobo de Cerdo, Lomo Saltado??? Everything is incredible, but once I tried the Aji de Gallina, I was STUCK. I loved this dish so much, I would come here once every other month or so to get it, including my last three birthdays. But sadly, I will say, the last two times i've been here, (since July of 2026), I've been disappointed with the Aji de Gallina. Something is different. The chicken tastes drier now, and the sauce isn't quite what it used to be. I'm not sure if the recipe was changed, but please know I am devastated and heartbroken to no longer be able to get my favorite dish and have it taste like it once did. Will it stop me from coming here? No. But I needed to make it known that the change to this dish made someone who once couldn't deviate from eating it if I tried, turn into someone who now refuses to order it because I can't bank on it being as delicious as it once was. And for that, my heart hurts. Still love u guys tho.

So, I went to this spot for a date, and honestly, I was a bit unsure at first since I didn't know…read moreanything about Peruvian food. I thought it was just a tiki bar, but it kinda is plus, the service was awesome. We sat at the bar, and the bartender whipped up one of the best old fashioneds I've ever had. They've got those giant ice cubes, which is a big win in my book. (Real whiskey drinkers know what I'm talking about) haha The bartender was super chill and asked if we had any questions about the menu. I was totally clueless about what to order, but when I mentioned what I like, he pointed me right to the dish I wanted. The vibe in the place is gorgeous, and yeah, it's a bit on the pricey side, but perfect for a date night. If you're looking to impress a girl in Petaluma, take her here! Or if you and the wifey want a night out, this is definitely the spot.

Their Colombian tamales, fried empanadas, mojarra frita, patacones and arepas are delicious and taste homemade. The people who work there are so nice and really take care of their customers.

The food is excellent, the people are wonderful, and I definitely recommend trying Chica and Café. You won't be disappoin

I was greeted by Andres who was friendly and we asked to sit outside with our puppy. Andres stopped by many times to ask if we needed anything. Our server was Marlene who was very sweet and helpful. The paella takes a bit of time to come out but didn't notice that bc we were munching on some nice toasted corn and green sauce. We also ordered the pollo del buen Chico for the puppy who loved it. They also gave him his own water bowl. It was fresh and tasty. Our paella was tasty as usual. The outdoor seating area is nice and private and quiet and clean.

It's looks like they also have live music as there was a guitar and drums waiting for someone to play them. We were only 3 people otherwise I would have ordered the whole menu! So many delicious options to pick from. We went with the Polla La Brasa, chicaron sandwich, a meat and chicken tamal and Pilsner to wash it all down. The food did not disappoint. I live an hour away and was in town for a competition- the food was so good I will come back just to eat here again.

I was born and raised in Peru, so this review comes from real knowledge and experience with authentic Peruvian food. So far, I have tried the ceviche, pan con relleno, jalea, arroz con mariscos, and picarones, and every dish has truly reminded me of home. The flavors are authentic, well-balanced, and prepared the way Peruvian food should taste. On top of the amazing food, the service is always friendly, welcoming, and attentive. You can feel the warmth and hospitality from the moment you walk in.

A bright and clean space with understated decor. Portions are good so you might want to skip appetizers though we tried the Calamari which was good and the Yuca Frita was sublime. Small wine list with good choices from South America and if you order by the glass you will be amazed at the size of the pours; double what one would normally get! Two of us had the Paella which was very good, a third ordered the excellent Lamb Shank and the fourth had the top notch Pork Rib platter which completely disappeared very quickly. Perhaps next time we'll try the Ceviche as we will return if they can remain in business with such little traffic. While not inexpensive the value is solid as you would pay far more in any other good Sonoma County restaurants for similar dishes. Polite if a bit shy service but man did she light up when we went head over heels over her family home made hot sauces which are a "must try" if you have an appropriate appetizer. Ask for them as they bring you tasty but not too spicy standard condiments. Oh, and very clean restrooms and well paced food serving times. Keep this place open, try it sooner vs later.

Nice tables and silverware and plates. They have a good sized menu. Food was the surprise. I expected it to be different but it was quite tasty. We shared the empanadas 1 each - beef, chicken, pork. We also had the sweet plantains and the mango habanero ceviche. The empanadas were a little on the small side but they were delicious. The mango habanero ceviche was really just cooked shrimp with a mango habanero sauce and pickled red onions. There was also a dried plantain chip on top. Though I was expecting a more traditional ceviche, it was really tasty. The sweet plantains were excellent, just what you expect with more onions and a sour cream type sauce. The service was quick but not intrusive. Would definitely come back.

The service was impeccable with helpful workers constantly monitoring and making sure everyone was taken care of. One of the workers was friendly and gave us the run down on recommendations and what was popular. The interior is so colorful too! This place is amazing !! The sandwich hit the spot with the perfect amount of meat and veggies along with the sauce. The pink beans were nice to try and were a nice side to the perfectly salted ribs. The ribs were made so well and had the perfect amount of salt to meat ratio and went well with the rice. The lemon zesty salad was refreshing and the garlic platains really hit the spot. We both enjoyed the meal so much and need to try other items.

Me and bf ordered a lot of food just to see the variety and a taste of everything. We shared a table with 4 other customers as the place isn't very big and honestly I felt bad since we ordered a lot of food that easily could've taken a lot of space. We tried to minimize the area by transferring similar dishes near one another and stacking our plates on top of each other or really close to each other. Overall it was good to try! Not sure if we'd go back again but it's an experience that anyone should try!

The outside was grilled to perfection--well done... *not* undercooked like some pupuserias. Lively Latin music played at a nice volume where you can talk with your companions. Merengue and more. You give your order and are given a number. You pick your own seat. Signs are bilingual--mostly Latin patrons, which is my usual litmus test that usually means the food has authentic flavor, which I love and look for from ethnic dining experiences. It's very clean and looks freshly painted. I was here just before noon and there was a steady stream of patrons.
