The atmosphere seems fun but the music is a bit too loud for a conversation. Service took too long, considering the restaurant was empty during dinner. The staff was clearly not in a rush, even though very friendly. The door did not convince me either unfortunately. Carne Empanada was overstated and a bit too flaky. The main dish beef was not medium (as I ordered), but medium well
And the final blow was the check - it is too expensive for the food and service received

An absolute must-go restaurant pick if you are in Calgary. I went there with my family looking for a nice play to eat dinner and oh man did we leave impressed! Good ceviches are hard to come by and Sumaq does a loyal service to the traditional peruvian ceviches. Other dishes like the tiradito, and desserts like the churros were absolute exquisite bangers. The servers were very kind to us (as fellow latinos) they served us a small shot glass on the house of a liqour I forget oops. 10/10 would go again. Maybe the music was a tad bit loud but for the quality of the food and service it did not bother me much.

I had the pleasure of dining at Sumaq, a Peruvian restaurant in Calgary, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. The food was absolutely amazing — full of authentic flavor, beautifully presented, and made with care. Every dish brought a delicious taste of Peru right to our table. The service was equally outstanding: warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. You can tell they take pride in what they do. I highly recommend Sumaq to anyone looking to enjoy exceptional Peruvian cuisine in a cozy and inviting setting. I’ll definitely be back!

We were fortunate to discover this place on Google. We celebrated a birthday there, and the food was incredible. Each dish boasts authentic flavors, whether you're visiting Calgary or traveling from elsewhere to experience it.
The waitstaff truly exceeded our expectations in terms of friendliness. Many of the staff members speak Spanish, and the waiters are very knowledgeable about the menu and provide thorough explanations.
The restaurant's ambiance was comfortable and cozy. As we were taking pictures on our way out, a staff member approached us to inform us that there was a surprise dessert for the birthday girl. This thoughtful gesture made our experience even more special, and we were thrilled to return because the flan with ice cream was absolutely divine!
Overall, this place is a must-visit. We are very grateful to the staff and are delighted to have found it.

Best Peruvian restaurant! We had the lomo saltado, ceviche, beef empanadas and picarones. Everything was very delicious and great portions. Highly recommend it, if you want to try Peruvian food in Calgary.
I am Perúvian and I wanted a taste of home while visiting Calgary. Sumaq was perfect! The food is delicious, just like you’d find in Peru. The atmosphere is nice with pleasant music and the decoration is on point. The waitress Alba is very attentive and she gave us great advice about the food. We tried 3 kinds of pisco sour made by Robinson the bartender and all were excellent. I recommend to try the passion fruit pisco sour. Thank you for the great service.

Food was amazing!! The only thing was maybe the fries need some salt ;) everything else was fantastic and staff was very kind.
