    Pasta Huancina con Salmon al Grill
    Kacey T.

    This restaurant was SUCH an interesting find. I loved the Peruvian x Japanese cuisine they promoted when I found out about them. When you walk in there a cute llama structure at the door ( I wish there were more). I also loved the colorful flags. Despite this, I feel like the lighting could've been a bit warmer because it felt a little cold in the restaurant. Our waiter was really nice and the food came out in around 10-15 minutes. The restaurant was not busy at all though. I ordered the salmon pasta huacaina and it was like nothing I've ever had before. Granted it was delicious! It had a bit of South American spice and the salmon was cooked perfectly. I only wish it had more veggies throughout. The portions are also a bit small for a hefty price. I did think that upon ordering a lot of the menu items are full Peruvian or full Japanese and less of the fusion marketed. I would love to see some more experimentation with these unique flavors. Next time I go I will try the sushi.

    Lomo Saltado

    We visited for lunch during this year's Seattle Restaurant Week. There was only one other table while we visited. We each chose a $35 menu: I wanted to try the duck, but was told they didn't have it. But they were nice enough to sub the lomo saltado (the steak was tender and had good wok flavor). We also tried ceviche + Causa Crocante Nikkei (fried mashed potato cake topped with tuna tartare, one of my favorites of the meal). Overall, food is interesting but definitely on the pricey side. A good place to grab some drinks after work, or hang out with friends when you want to try some unique Peruvian Japanese fusion dishes.

    Salmon pasta

    I was impressed by the quality of food and their beautiful presentations. Absolutely top notch. It was hard to order because so many items looked delicious. Unfortunately due to my budget, i dont have that luxury. So I ordered the cassava fries in a green sauce, the causa de pollo, and a salmon pasta. Everything i ordered was fun and beautiful, but somehow tasted better the next day after microwaving. Pasta often seems to be better after its settled longer, but the other 2 orders were originally cold which means I probably would have enjoyed them more as hot dishes instead of cold. The restaurant is located somewhat on the edge of pioneer square. For me the street parking was pretty quick and easy to find. Upon entering i couldn't help but notice the interior was very clean and felt roomy for it's somewhat small size. Probably due to the large ceilings in the front half of the restaraunt. Oddly enough the entire time I was dining I didn't feel like I was in a restaurant. Not sure if that even matters. ‍

    We went in with a reservation on Mother's Day for dinner at 5:30. The place was kind of 80-90% full within 30 minutes of our arrival. The items we ordered were Lomo a lo pobre - was good and would recommend Seco de cordero - the beans was salty for our taste, but when eaten with the meat, it didn't bother much. Lomo saltado - was good, not much different from the lomo a lo pobre Fried plantains - was good Alfajores - too sweet for my taste (don't have a sweet tooth) Didn't drink that day and hence no comments on that. The service was good and friendly. Being mother's day, all mothers were greeted with a rose. very thoughtful of the staff/owner. Being Sunday evening, I found street parking in front of the restaurant/very close by. Not sure about busy days. One of the reviewers had mentioned about high pricing and I would agree. A bill of $140+tips is a little too high is what I felt (I don't have any experience of running a restaurant, so will not comment more). Last but not least, there is a 3% charge on credit card payments!

    Left: lunch special with Ceviche Clasico, salad and shrimp fried rice. Right ceviche clasico with calamari.

    Food- delicious, fresh, felt authentic. Variety of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks available. Ambiance- causal. A little dark, and has touches of Peru! Service- very nice. They are nearing their 3 yr anniversary. Value- very good! $60 for 2 people and I am full. Location: on corner near diamond parking. Street parking available too. Recommend: YES!! Supporting small business too.

    Cuba Libre And Yuca Con Tartara

    Get to this restaurant in Pioneer Square and try some Peruvian cuisine. It may not be as common as a cuisine to find, but it's similar to Mexican in a few ways as far as flavor. Señor Carbón is pretty good as far as the prices and quality. Has authenticity. The food has few things for vegans, but there's some at least. Calm but festive atmosphere is a way to describe it. It's got plenty of room for big groups and parties. There's also plenty who go who just want to eat and talk. Has a pretty basic drink menu. There's not a whole lot crazy about this. It's about $12 for a cocktail. The Cuba Libre is a classic, with Coke, lime, and rum. It's about $12 for appetizers. The entrees have limited choices for vegetarians. Quite a few meaty things like chicken and seafood. We ended up getting the Yuca Con Tartara. Basically thick cut French fries. These come with an aioli, but I used ketchup for mine. Has good things if you like Peruvian cuisine. It's closed Mondays. This is located on 1st Avenue at Cherry Street.

    Food is delicious though slightly over salted and prices are on the high side. Potato croquette appetizer and pulpo octopus main were standouts. Service is decent as well. We came for an early dinner so the restaurant was still pretty empty and quiet but I can see it being a lot louder and livelier when busy.

    I have always wanted to try Senor Carbon because I love Peruvian cuisine. Most of the times that I have walked past Senor Carbon, they have been closed. Luckily it was open for dinner. I liked that they offer Nikkei dishes (Peruvian sushi). But I had to try their Lomo Saltado to compare to other Peruvian restaurants that I have been to. The presentation was very nice and clean. I was disappointed that they did not have aji verde sauce. They did have a red salsa, which added some nice heat. The French fries were hot and crunchy, the beef was tender and delicious. The rice had a nice garlicky flavor. The price was a little higher than what I would have expected, but the food, ambience and service is worth it. I do want to come back and try some Peruvian sushi!

    Mariscos al curry, a beautifully spicy seafood smorgasboard with shrimp, mussels, clams, and calamari.
    Rick S.

    We visited Señor Carbon while working in Seattle. After having our pockets picked by another downtown eatery, we were looking for something more modestly priced and casual. This place is very informal and comfortable located near Pioneer Square on 1st Ave. The menu is a fusion of Peruvian and Japanese flavors including plantains with a heavy emphasis on seafood as you might expect. We went more towards the Peruvian side of the menu although the various sushi offerings looked very delectable. In particular, I enjoyed the Mariscos al curry con ajies Peruanos, a beautifully spicy seafood smorgasboard with shrimp, mussels, clams, and calamari. I couldn't get enough of the broth delightfully bright with three different kinds of Peruvian chile peppers tempered with coconut milk. Poured over rice, it was amazing. We also enjoyed the Pasta Huancaina con langostinos, what I think is a Peruvian take on a carbonara featuring shrimp, carrots, peas, and bacon. Yum. The bar has a fantastic assortment of adult beverages and the prices are easy on your wallet. Service was informal but friendly and very fast. Recommended.

    Just a great business serving Peruvian Cuisine. Lomo Saltado es bueno. Chaufa us on point as well as lomo saltado

    Ivan D.

    The lomo saltado was delicious, and the plantains were a standout in both the appetizer and the entrée--perfectly ripe and sweet. I lucked out with the best table in the place, right by the window. If there's one thing that could knock off a star, it's the value. An appetizer, entrée, and an Inka Kola will set you back well over $60 with tip.

    Shawana L.

    Came here for lunch and Senor Carbon did not disappoint. I got a tuna nigiri roll and trio ceviche and my coworker ordered the lomo sandwich and he said the bread was super soft. My dishes were bursting with flavor! The only down side is that it is a bit on the spendier side. My nigiri was $13 and trio ceviche was $18. Great quality though so worth the money if you're looking for tasty Peruvian food in Seattle.

    Chicha Morada
    Jeremy B.

    On a recent trip to Vancouver and Seattle, I first tried Peruvian cuisine in Vancouver and loved it. Moving on to Seattle, I wanted more. If nothing else, some more of the refreshing Chicha Morada drink. Both cities were roasting in August, and this Peruvian soft drink sure hit the spot. Señor Carbon is a very attractive restaurant with a comfortable atmosphere. The delightful server who was so forgiving of my inability to speak Spanish, helped me to choose Chaufa de Pollo for my lunch. Tasty, satisfying, what more could you ask for? I forgot its name, but how adorable is that llama?

Relocating from California has had its challenges but dinner was not one of them, thanks to Pink Salt. We were hungry after checking into our Airbnb and this restaurant was right up the street in Magnolia's cute little downtown area. The ambience is neat and inviting. Peruvian food is a favorite of our family and we needed to get some real comfort food. This did not disappoint! The service was great. Very friendly server with good knowledge of the menu. Our dishes arrived quickly, and it was all hot and absolutely delicious. We were so pleased! We ordered the seafood rice, black cod risotto and lomo saltado. Incredible! Each dish was a crowd pleaser. We will be coming here often. Congrats and thank you to the staff for making our first dinner a beautiful memory! We are not easily impressed;)

It's a Peruvian restaurant with a very plain outside and dim lighting on the inside. The service was great, they were attentive. I unfortunately felt like the food and plating were really mediocre. We noted that the plates looked like plates you would find in a college dining hall. - Causa Acevichada: 5/5, really enjoyed the sauce. The rockfish tasted fresh! - Seco Limeno de Pollo: 3.5/5, the salsa was not as flavorful as I had hoped for. - Budin: 2/5, this was dry and small. I was really disappointed with this dessert. I enjoy that they had a menu for SRW; I would give them another try outside of SRW.

    Feels like I was transported to Peru :) opened 8 years ago…read more Ambiance, lovely service and of course the food. Went on Tues lunch- it was chill. DUO #1: CEVICHE + ARROZ CON MARISCOS $34 The seafood was tender and had octopus, calamari, shrimp and one mussel. Portion was large! LOMO SALTADO / Peruvian Stirfry Loin $23 The beef could be more tender. Fries and sauce were good (lacked the aji Amarillo) . Zero spice with option to add post. Good value ( I don't say that often these days) Parking available. Located in a quiet subtle strip mall. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful little family-run Peruvian restaurant that's worth a visit. Ignore the posts/reviews…read moreabout "service is bad." It's not. It's a small family-run place. Honestly, I get really tired of some Yelp reviewers who act so entitled and belittle a small place like this--it does not reflect well on the Yelp community. And here's a hint, you don't go to a restaurant 45 minutes or shorter before closing time and expect a perfect experience. In fact, many restaurants now close their kitchens to orders 30 minutes before that closing time; so stop acting so freaking entitled when you go in that time window. Okay, on to this place. We LOVED it. The service was friendly and helpful. No, it's not the fastest in the world, and mistakes were made (one for us with an ingredient we're allergic to--so ALWAYS double- and triple-check), but we didn't expect it to be. It was fine. The food was wonderful. These are Peruvians, and these are their family recipes. They may be different from certain other Peruvian family recipes. So what. Deal with it. The food was great. We will be returning. Many times. Loved it!

We did make a reservation in…read moreadvance but it was not crowded, so I would think walking in would be okay too in lunch hours. But this is a really upscale place and assume the place runs at full capacity during dinner hours. There is parking under the building and you can get your parking ticket validated by your server before leaving - so no stress with parking in downtown. Yes, this is an expensive place but since we were here during lunch hours, we were able to take advantage of the Executive Lunch - Set menu for $45 per person. Among us 3 people, we were able to taste everything available in that set menu and every single dish was amazing - like truly, from presentation to flavors, especially the 3 appetizers - so so very good!

Arroz con Mariscos Dessert 1. Tres Leches de Coco - must try Service was very well timed. We had an amazing time. Great place for a team lunch/dinner.

Eggplant dish -berenjena criolla 5/5 -- favorite dish of the day. Love that you can still taste a bit of the fried texture on the eggplant and flavor was nutty, creamy, and citrusy. Achupado 3/5 - this was a good dish, there was a variety of seafood and they were all good except for the octopus. That was inedible. I wished they cut it to smaller pieces so it can be eaten easier or give us a knife but as is, it was way too tough and chewy. Flavors was spot on, I do wish they gave more noodles to absorb the sauce Ceviche tasting - 5/5 love the variety. All of them was fresh, tangy and flavorful Complimentary corn - 5/5 this was addicting Service 3/5 : our server was very knowledgeable, he gave us a little of a tour of the menu, cam check on us a couple of times. However, I wish he would have clearly explained that the executive lunch was for the whole table, not just individual. Also, cleaning our table while we are still there is a bit rude in my opinion, almost feel like they are rushing us out. The place is fancy and very very pricey. Good for special occasions or once in a while splurge.
