Hadn't been here in about 8 years. Went for dinner...wasn't crowded…read more Food was good but I could definitely tell the difference with the amount of food/sauce I received on my meal. I remember when the cream sauce was thicker and a bit more flavorful and it used to literally cover the fish. Not nearly as much sauce was on my plate this time. We were only given 1 serving of tartar sauce for our calamari (which was delicious) but for 2 people, it was not enough. At $3 for another serving! Nope I could buy a whole jar at that price. Food overall was good with good service.

We were seated right away and the restaurant was mostly empty. Upon sitting, they brought out some bread to snack on, kind of like a free appetizer. Our server gave us some recommendations. I went with the oxtail fettuccine and it came out as expected! Though, some oxtail was chewy instead of tender and the fettuccine was pretty standard. Serving sizes were huge, so all of us took home leftovers, which was nice! Kinda got 2 meals in one lol. We also got some maracuyá (passion fruit) juice that was refreshing. Just note you'll need to ask for ice on the side if you want it cold. Overall a solid spot for a chill family dinner. Would come back if I'm in the area.

So many things change over time. This used to be our go-to place for feasting on Peruvian cuisine…read more My Dad enjoys what we order from here so we decided to order for our Father's Day dinner. Such a letdown. The order was delayed 45 min and no one even felt bad about it. Get our order and the two whole chickens look suspiciously like one chicken. And they gave us the wrong order and when I called, the guy on the phone says it's basically the same thing. Nope. Chicken is not beef. And when I mentioned the major delay (which delayed our dinner) and the wrong item, no apology. I guess years of loving the place, I approached our disappointment with a light touch but maybe that gave them the impression I was okay with their delay, and their oversight of actually messing up our order. The prices have gone up and the quality and portion size has decreased and while I am slow to share reviews where I express my disappointment, it was such a bummer from a long beloved restaurant that I felt the need to update my 8 year old 4 star review.

We also shared sushi, and it was just as fresh and delicious as the entrées. The service was friendly and attentive without hovering, and the restaurant was clean with a relaxed atmosphere that made it easy to enjoy a long meal with family. If you're looking for something a little different than your typical sushi spot, this is definitely worth checking out. We'll be back to work our way through more of the menu!

The restaurant is absolutely adorable, and the decor makes you feel like you've stepped into a cozy Japanese restaurant. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing dinner. I ordered the combo with the sashimi bowl and mixed tempura. The sashimi bowl came with salmon, yellowtail, and tuna, and everything was incredibly fresh. The fish was buttery, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The tempura was just as impressive. It included shrimp, cantaloupe, potato, and shishito peppers, all fried to perfection. Everything was light, crispy, and wonderfully crunchy without feeling greasy. I especially loved the variety of vegetables paired with the shrimp. My friend ordered the soba noodles and was kind enough to share a few bites. They were perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. Honestly, everything we tried was fantastic. Overall, I had a great experience and can't wait to come back to try more dishes from the menu. Highly recommend if you're looking for fresh, delicious Japanese food in a cute and welcoming setting!

Or Lomo Saltado is you prefer beef which I normally do but in this case I recommend the chicken. There are 4 or 5 El Pollo Inkas in the SouthBay so its a local favorite. This review is only for the Hermosa restaurant but all the locations are great. It's located on PCH at Aviation Blvd so its pretty easy to find. There is a medium sized parking lot but it is a very busy center so parking can be difficult sometimes. We both had the Pollo Saltado which comes with a cup of chicken soup and fresh rolls. The Saltado is shredded rotisserie chicken grilled w/ onions, tomatos, french fries and is served with garlic rice. I know, I know french fries & rice but believe me it works so wonderfully. And you must drench it in the Aji sauce, it's a magical thing and I put it on everything! The staff is friendly and the store is very neat and clean. Something that extends to the parking lot which is always well lit. If you need to walk off the meal there is a Trader Joe's & Five Below in the center.

I also loved the music--very Latin/Caribbean, which adds a really nice vibe to the experience. Prices are reasonable too. I've been back a couple of times since then. Definitely a great spot if you enjoy or want to try Caribbean food.
