    Maduros, Green Plantains, Rotisserie chicken
    Dave K.

    One of my favorites Mexican Peruvian restaurants. Always attentive advice, inviting space and a full menu of delicious dishes. Highly recommend the rotisserie chicken, tostones, and guacamole.

    I stopped by here for a quick lunch after a doctor's appointment, and it was wonderful. I got their Bistec a lo pobre lunch special, and boy was it a lot of food. There was a small steak, eggs, fries, plantains, a small side salad and a drink. There were a few tables filled when I arrived, mostly smaller parties and a one other solo diner. It made me feel a bit relieved seeing there was another solo diner besides myself! From the time I sat down to when I got my food, it was about 15 minutes, so not too long. The service was quick and efficient, and none of the waiters/waitresses ever rushed anyone. I'm not usually in the area so I wasn't familiar with what's good in the area, but I'm happy I stopped by Riviera Maya for lunch. It was a pleasant surprise to a great afternoon.

    This was one of the worst Mexican Peruvian fusion restaurants we have been to in Astoria. Everything, was off from the bland food we received to the wait service. The empanadas were not fresh. My quesadilla with fries was just plain awful. We had to wait endlessly for service and out seating arrangement was uncomfortable to say the least.

    Service and food always impeccable. I was craving seafood and opted for a whole fried fish that did not disappoint! The sides it came with was an avocado salad with tostones and it was an excellent combination. My boyfriend got the mole poblano with steak and he loved it! He is very picky when it comes to mole, and it's all he gets when he goes there so that says a lot! We always get a pitcher of sangria because it's delish! Their 2-go drinks by the way are SO worth it! Strong and delicious :) try their guava mojito - believe you me you will not be disappointed! You are welcome, and cheers! ~Susan

    We have been wanting to come here for a little while now, always see it when im walking on steinway in the neighborhood. Its our Date Night so we decided on this place which has outdoor dining. Service was excellent & prompt, the food was really good and the drinks were tasty & strong just like i like my men lol. We ordered the beef saltado & the salmon and shared both. The beef was really good, the salmon was nothing special. But good For an appetizer we got the octopus which was a little gummy but tasty. We got the mango mojitos. The plates are big and you def get full Had some serious ittus afterwards. Our bill came out to about $100. Not too bad. Great experience overall.The real vegetables growing in the garden outside was really cute. Hey, at least you know its fresh.

    We just got home from the most incredible meal we've had in years. The guacamole was super fresh, and my husband and I shared the Roca Maya recommended by the manager. It was phenomenal. The atmosphere was great and the food was even better. We'll be back soon.

    My second time having dinner here. The drinks are great (for the most part) and the food is simply scrumptious. Today we had the Roco Maya, enough food for two guys who like to eat. The bottom of the dish had salsa verde which was the cherry on top of this already flavorful meal. The first time we had ceviche mixto and the skirt steak with vegetables. All mouth watering. We will definitely make this a regular spot. They have a lunch special as well, might be worth checking out. Service was attentive too! Overall: I recommend it.

    We went to Urubamba for a family celebration because we were looking for authentic Peruvian food…read more We were a group of 10, and they were able to accommodate us quickly. The service was attentive throughout our visit. We ordered several appetizers, including anticuchos, rachi, and salchipapas. Everyone enjoyed them, especially the salchipapas. For my main course, I had the tallarín verde with steak. The steak was cooked perfectly, but I felt it could have used a bit more seasoning. My husband ordered the goat stew, which he really enjoyed. If you're looking for authentic Peruvian cuisine, this is a great place to visit. One of the highlights for me was the chicha morada, don't skip on ordering that drink it was absolutely delicious and one of my favorite parts of the meal.

    Dined in this time and the food and eating experience is way better!…read more Ambiance: It really is so cute inside. The purposeful interior design of this restaurant sets it apart from other JH restaurants. Food: Mini Jalea is definitely a showstopper, there's nothing mini about it. Lightly crispy and perfectly flavored . The Lomo Saltado skirt steak was delicious and tender, the sauce was sooooo yummy. The tallarines verdes was good, it tasted like pesto! The grilled chicken thighs on top of it was also fantastic. Service was solid. No notes, it was an all around 5 star dining experience.

We ordered: * two whole chickens * lomo saltado * 5 ribs * yuca * 2 orders of maduros all for $85 cash. Chicken was great, it was juicy, steaming hot, and well seasoned on its own. The lomos saltado was our least favorite dish since it did not taste good and the meat was very bland. Ribs were not bad, some pieces were pretty soft. Overall we would definitely come back just for the chicken because it was so tender and soft.

Sadly, those days are long gone, and it's now obvious why. The quality has gone way downhill. The chicken portions are noticeably smaller, but that's not even the worst part. What really shocked me was how I was treated when trying to make a simple, health-conscious request. I attempted to order two white meat meals, as both my mother and I have cholesterol issues and cannot eat dark meat. I was told I had to order a mix of white and dark meat, that they "don't allow" two white meat meals. Even after explaining the health concerns, they still refused. The only "solution" offered was to buy a half chicken (with dark meat we can't eat) and then purchase an additional quarter white meat. On top of that, they tried to charge me an extra $3 for it. Being told what I can and cannot order especially when it relates to a health issue is absurd. And trying to sneak in extra charges for a workaround that they forced on me? That's just bad business. This place has lost its heart and its standards. If you're thinking about coming here ...don't. There are far better spots that actually care about their customers

    Delicious food and excellent service. I've been coming here for a few years now. The quality of…read morefood here is always the best. I've tried their jalea (crispy fried shrimp, fried yucca, fried squid, fried fish, fresh mussels), cau-cau (honeycomb tripe stew with tumeric sauce served with white, tallarin verde con bistec (pesto sauce with pasta and grilled steak), and papa a la huancaina (steamed potato covered with yellow pepper cheese sauce + a olive on the side). Every single one of those dishes are very delicious. My favorite is the jalea. Get the large! Additionally, I really enjoy their chicha morada. It is very refreshing and not too sweet. I recommend the half pitcher for a table of two. Great spot for a date or just to catch up with friends!

The choclo and the amount of ceviche is delicious. You can share or you can have a plate of your own. If your like me you want a plate or your own. After we tend to get a entree to split which is usually more than enough food. The service it usually pretty quick here and you are not waiting a long time. The food is flavorful and tastes fresh. The sangria here is also the perfect amount of liquor to juice. But we only wish that there were more fruits. The desert, alfajor, was baked just right. It's tough to find a good alfajor but this place has one of the best in the areas. This is a small restaurant so get there early and give it a try. It is a great place for Peruvian food!
