Happy 4 th of July! We came here for lunch in Haleiwa. It is not a food truck but has indoor and outdoor seating. In this 80 degree heat ceiling fans were barely keeping up so we sat outside. First time trying Peruvian food. Doc had ceviche, I had steak noodles and hubs had tres leches chocolate only cuz he knew shave ice came next down the road. I found my noodles super delicious in some kind of yellow sauce but it wasn't curry. My steak was highly seasoned surrounded by veggies with a tang. I concentrated enjoying the noodles. You order at the counter on the left. Other people did take out. A young lady brought cold water, and our utensils wrapped in a paper napkin. Doc bused our table before we left taking the plates, cups and forks inside.
Pretty good Peruvian food on the island with Inca kola. Can order at the counter or table service. Very casual island vibes out of what looks like a garage. When we arrived it was virtually empty and we said for 8 people and young kid at counter said we need reservation for more than 5. We all were like whaaat! Smarter young girl came up and said no worries and sat us. Was a little funny since there was plenty of open seats.
The boy helping us was so helpful, friendly and efficient! The place is really cute and fun to sit in to eat. The restrooms are clean. We got the yucca fries and homemade cheesecake- both so good! The texture of the cheesecake was extraordinary! One of the best cheesecakes. My kids dad really loved the ceviche trio and he also enjoyed the cheesecake and fries! We can't wait to come back on our next trip out here. Highly recommend.
Hidden along the roundabout to Waialua is this gem of a Peruvian experience. We would not have noticed it had it not been for the neon sign, saying that it was open. Blink and it's easy to miss. While there may not be much of a parking lot, stopping at the Peruvian Corner is like hanging out at your aunty's house, spacious and cozy interior with a television, children's books, and, music to match the experience. So rare so go to a cultural restaurant that plays music to match the cuisine. Speaking of cuisine, SO 'ONO. The casava chips are a family favorite but to be honest we enjoyed everything we ordered. Will return if we're ever in the area.
What a rare find this place is! I knew about it only because my friend had tried it before. I wanted to try a bit of everything, I got the ceviche topped with fried calamari spicy, Lomo Saltado with pasta, baked scallops, and fried yucca. I also got the chicha morada to drink - purple corn drink. Fried yucca is one of my favorite and the cilantro sauce on the side was so good. The ceviche was probably one of the best things I've ever ate. The spice was addictive. It didn't need the calamari. The loma saltado with pasta was very rich, I probably should have had it with the rice and fries but the pasta had a nice buttery taste. The scallops came with a show, a fire in the middle of the scallop shells. The scallops were very cheesy and they had a good flavor. The chicha morada I wasn't really sure about. At first I didn't like it, but then I shook it and I really liked the unique flavor, the cinnamon and pineapple were really good in it. All of that food cost me $80 but I had a lot of food! I am always happy to find a random place on the side of the road, and this one is definitely worth returning to.
We've been here several times, and it never disappoints! The lomo saltado is always tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, and the yuca fries are crispy and delicious. Every meal has been consistently fresh and packed with flavor. Definitely one of our favorite spots for food in Waialua/Haleiwa. We'll keep coming back!
what a fun find! do note that the address on their IG and yelp is wrong!!! they are behind smoking boar and coconut!!! i drove around the old sugar mill and couldn't find it but luckily someone else has posted they are at a different location now! There is not that many places that serve Peruvian food, especially with this extensive of a menu thats offered! I love that theres pictures on the truck, so it's easy to see what the food actually looks like and it is received exactly the same like the picture. They are truly a hidden gem as they are tucked in the back of a existing restaurant in their lawn area. upon entering a small pathway youll first come across some plants for sale ($5) which feeds the homeless! Pretty cool, but i also have a black thumb! There is a bunch of tables with umbrellas and when we went there was a singer! what a cool vibe they got going on here. best of all it is dog friendly! I got 3 items ( the scallops, steak/pasta, and empanada) and it came out to about $60 with tip. My friend got the ceviche with white fish which turned out to be Hamachi. It was also very yummy! Service was also super friendly and best part of all is that it's dog friendly! whoo hoo!
We stopped by for lunch after shopping at a local farmers market - it is a stationary food truck tucked in the back of a cafe in front with plenty of seating and daily live music. I'm so glad we came here! I've been to Peru and love the cuisine! I've tried many lomo saltado (soy sauce "shoyu"-marinated beef strips with tomatoes, cilantro over fries) in San Francisco, here and elsewhere. Peruvian Corner Hawaii serves such a tasty Lomo Saltado that I think it is one of the best I've had! The family that runs it is so hospitable and Aloha! Thank you so much! I would definitely stop by again!
Absolutely incredible. We rolled up to this location right as the rain was dying down, there were puddles on the ground and a kid playing in the mud. It felt comfortable, everyone there seemed like friends and the neighboring restaurant welcomed everyone equally. I spoke a little Spanish with the woman behind the counter and I swear that must have unlocked the floodgates of familial care even further because our serving sizes were incredibly generous. Being able to eat outdoors or in only added to the home like ambiance and comfort. The octopus in the pulpo grill had zero flaws. Cooked to perfection with a lovely sauce, each bite perfectly measured with fat and flavor. Each bite of the ceviche returned energy to my soul and body, refreshing me to take on the rest of the day. So much citrus and spice, yet not an ounce of flavor lost in the mix. And of course yuca fries are amazing, if you've never had them you could do much worse than trying them here.
First time here after seeing all the wonderful reviews as soon as we found the place our family was greeted by the 2 owners they were so nice & friendly we placed our order at there beautiful food truck area then waited for the our food it was made so fresh. We got 2 plates & the lilikoi cheese cake dessert which was nothing short of delicious I Recommend this place!
Highly recommend this place! Food is great with many options to choose from. Every time you go back the only struggle you'll have is picking what you're going to eat for that day! Service is great and the music is bumping. This has become my girlfriend's and my favorite North Shore snack! Always looking forward to eating at Peruvian Corner!
The food stand is located behind the building. They do have a restroom in the building that you can use. The food is very good and definitely made fresh. The wait isn't too bad and there is seating outside. I really liked the flavourful food and definitely would like to go back next time I am in the area. The service was good, but they did not mention that tip is included in the card transaction. That was slightly annoying.

I love supporting local and I love that this restaurant is family owned and run. The food by far was very tasty. Arrived on a Saturday afternoon with 1 other group waiting for their food. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating but the indoor was soooo hot so we opted for outdoor seating. Please ring the bell at the counter to let them know you're ready to order bc they're working in the kitchen. Fanny (the wife) was very friendly and gave the best and most popular recommendation. We waited a bit for our food but we were busy answering emails so it was not a problem. The food came out hot and fresh. Portions were big so I only ate half. Otherwise, I would have had a kanak attack driving home. Would I come back here again? Absolutely! There's more I'd like to try! read more

I'm always on the hunt for new types of restaurants, and this hidden gem did not disappoint! Tucked away in Waialua, right before the bridge, you'll find Peruvian Corner. The restaurant has a private parking lot that fits about seven cars. It's small, but I've never had an issue finding a stall. The restaurant has lots of seating inside and outdoors. Just beware that the inside can get hot depending on the time of day. The owner and her children are usually the ones working the front of the house when I visit, and they're always so friendly and helpful with recommendations. The owner, especially, is incredibly bubbly and welcoming! But what I really come for is the food. I've tried a variety of dishes, and everything tastes like what I imagine Peruvian comfort food to be--made with lots of love. I've tried several types of ceviche, and my favorite is the one with ají amarillo sauce. I've also had the yuca fries, cheesy flaming scallops, lomo saltado with noodles, octopus with potatoes, chicken fried rice, and more. But my absolute favorite has to be the Seco de Carne Con Frijoles (stewed beef with beans). That dish was the ultimate comfort food for me! Can't wait to visit again and try even more of the menu! read more

When my husband asked me where to eat for my birthday, all I could think of was Peruvian Corner! This was our third time to visit, and we've always loved their food. We really love Peruvian food because it is unique and something you will not find so easily on the island. We had a plan for what to order, but when we arrived, we noticed they added new dishes to the menu, and everything looked so appetizing and delicious. We decided on the Peruvian Chicken, which I believe is called Aji de Gallina. It came with a light, creamy, and delicious yellow sauce. We also tried the calamari ceviche, which was fresh, lightly breaded, and ono! I couldn't resist trying a Peruvian empanada, so we got the Wagyu beef empanada. It's unlike any other empanada I've had (but in a good way). The pastry is light, flaky, and puff-like, slightly oily but delicious. Auntie Fanny also taught us how to eat it with ceviche sauce, yummy! And to finish, we had their tres leches cake, which was light and creamy. Something we really enjoyed! For drinks, we got the Inca Kola (like a light cream soda) and the Chicha Morada, a must-try Peruvian purple corn drink that Auntie Fanny makes from scratch. Beyond their amazing food, what keeps us coming back is their kindness, authenticity, and warm aloha spirit. Quick Tip: They're now open Tuesday through Sunday at 67-456 Goodale Ave, Waialua, HI 96791 (behind the Smoking Boar and Coconut). We can't wait to go back. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to try something unique and delicious! Mahalo nui loa Chef Miguel and Auntie Fanny! read more

An Explosion of Peruvian Flavor! This food truck is a gem! Tucked away in the north shore, this little corner of Peruvian gastronomy serves authentic and delicious dishes. Got the Lomo Saltado and it was absolutely spectacular. The meat was tender and juicy, perfectly sautéed with onion, tomato, and those irresistible fries; the sweet and sour sauce that coats it is perfection. Plus, the Yuca Frita was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the ideal accompaniment. To drink, the Chicha Morada is a refreshing drink with a unique spicy flavor that you can't miss. It's the perfect finishing touch to the meal! But what really makes this place shine are its owners Fanny & Miguel. They are the kindest and loveliest people. They make you feel like you're eating in their own home. They smile, chat, and clearly put their love into every dish. Thank you for such an amazing meal. read more

We've been to Peruvian Corner several times now since November. At this point, Aunty Fanny and Uncle Miguel do not disappoint us when we come and with whatever they serve us. I don't know what I'm ordering and pretty much just pointing at the photos as I'm eating with my eyes first and it's just as advertised and delicious. All seafood is fresh and really good. The ceviche is a great appetizer. The menu has grown and makes us want to try it all! We ordered a chicken with rice in aji amarillo sauce almost looking like yellow curry but there's not even a hint of curry in it. Excellent new dish on the menu! Ask for more aji amarillo as it's a sweet but mildly spicy pepper sauce. The things I do know I ordered are tallarin saltado, chicha morada (a must buy drink) and inca cola. We always leave with a to go order because something about this food, their seasoning, and the smell of it makes us want it again. Also that chicha morada is too good to not stock up on. They are now regular at their Waialua location behind the Boar and the Coconut Tuesday to Sunday 10am to 730pm. All seating is outdoors. They will accept private parties as well. We will be back as they make us happy and our stomachs happy! read more

This place is the bomb. The vibe is very north shore, you eat outside beside a small veggie garden in the sun under umbrellas. The hospitality is 10/10 and the husband and wife that work here will treat you like family. THE FOOD is honestly made with an artists touch. Super flavorful and authentic Peruvian with awesome refreshing homemade drinks. The ingredients are fresh and everything is made from scratch. If you ask Fanny about the healthy aspects of what they serve she will explain that the salsa they make has medicinal properties and it tastes so dang good. I love to get the lomo soltado because it's a classic but I have never had anything I don't like here. Whether it's a super hot day and you want some super fresh ceviche or a hearty warm meal come and try this out 10/10! read more

Everything I've had here is so tasty! It's no surprise because Miguel was an executive chef in Argentina for 20 years! With Peruvian roots, a passion for good food, and years of striving for excellence, you must try their humble establishment on Oahu's countryside, Waialua. You'll enjoy anything you have here but today I encourage you to try their tasty health drink called chicha morada! It reminds us a lot of hibiscus but carries a mouthfeel all its own. Fanny makes it from scratch and it's very special. They make their sauces and desserts from scratch actually, so you've gotta lean into this fantasy made reality. Wild this place is empty. I mean they did just find this space to settle into after a couple years of finding their way. They would prop up tents, break them down, and do it again. And again. And again! Reminds me of what it takes to have a dream come true! One step at a time. I first met this family at a pop up event in Hale'iwa, then an event at a local elementary school and now at their very first establishment in Waialua. We used to have trouble tracking them down but now we know where the treasure gets to bubble and live! This family has only been here for two years but the aloha spirit is palpable! Let's continue to guide each other to this authentic Peruvian food made with aloha. I had trouble finding their hours so thought I'd share a few notes here. Open Monday - Friday 10:30am - 6pm Saturdays and Sundays, open from 3:30-7. Unless they're working an event! Check them out on instagram where they post where they will be if not in their said hours @peruviancornerhawaii read more

One of the best things we had on Oahu. We stopped next door to eat at Jenny's Shrimp and decided to get the Peruvian food when the woman working with her husband waved us over. I'm very glad we did. Turns out the lomo saltado was a perfect complement to Jenny's shrimp. For $20, it was a delicious departure from all the meals we'd been having all around the island. Service was friendly and quick. They don't accept credit cards, so I payed with venmo. read more
