Taste of Peru | Urban Kitchen & Pisco Bar

Nov. 13th 1960 - November 13th 2022 and I somehow lived long enough to make it to the Taste of Peru. We went there on a Sunday so the drive was easy. The restaurant is clean, family oriented and the staff was wonderful. The menu was a little light, but there was enough that you had options to choose from, and as usual we just ordered to our stomachs delight. For appetizers we had the Yuca Dorada with Huancaina sauce, which were firm on the outside and tender in the inside. I had the Chaufa Trio which is a fried rice with chicken, beef and shrimp. The food was well seasoned and the meat was tender, just so well prepared. We also had Pollo a la Brasa, a 1/4 chicken, jasmine rice and plantains. The chicken was delicious and moist even a day later. The papa's rellana was superb. For dessert was a slice of Tres Leches cake and a serving of Lucuma ice cream. The tres leches cake was good but not what you expect if you are looking for the wet version. The ice cream was the star, think soft serve and creamy, and worthy of a fist fight for the last bite. We came from the west valley and the trip was worth it, can't wait to go back.

The Service at best was a below average. The only thing I enjoyed was the Peruvian potatoes with the mustard sauce. It took about 45 minutes to get my chicken order. No flavor for the chicken as it tasted like it was a rotisserie from Costco. The owners were nice but maybe they were overwhelmed. To be frank, I'd probably never go back there again. Sorry but I was extremely dissatisfied.

The food was so delicious and the service was above and beyond! This restaurant did not disappoint. I highly recommend it❤️

Pésima experiencia, recomendé a unos amigos americanos a comer comida peruana pero fue una gran decepción Nuestra gastronomía es fantástica , reconocida a nivel mundial pero este tipo de restaurantes improvisan con una pésima calidad con una ordinaria presentación más aún con un precio que no justifica la comida ni la atención . Ojalá y algún día tengamos en Arizona un restaurante que tenga todas las cualidades y el mejor estándar con cocineros certificados de experiencia en un local acogedor, grande que merece la comunidad peruana en este estado. No recomiendo este restaurant , no apoyo la improvisación.

Delicious food. Wonderful staff. Local and family owned. Highly recommend!

A nice change of pace from my traditional haunts. The staff is very nice and the food is really tasty. I got the Peruvian fried rice and I don't know what they cook the chicken in but it's fantastic. The chicken noodle style soup was also very good. I'm gonna need to come back for their 1/4 or 1/2 chicken meal as well as some other things that look stellar.

Overpriced! Charging $16 for a vegetable stir fry where the only visible vegetable is red onion. Lucuma ice cream was decent. Wouldn't go here again though.

A local Peruvian Kitchen and Pisco Bar. Comfort food is served here. The menu is a wonderful selection of authentic Peruvian dishes. The restaurant is very clean and organized. The server and owner are extremely friendly and answered all our questions .Come hungry because your taste buds and stomach will thank you later.They offer lunch specials and a variety of cocktail. There is also a Kid's zone menu.So glad I decided to venture into this hidden gem. Definitely will come back if in the area.

Delicious food. Excellent service. Highly recommended.

What a gem of a restaurant! It's the perfect place for date night, complete with yummy food, nice lighting, happy service and lovely music. I appreciated the generous portion sizes -- let's hear it for leftovers!

This place is absolutely delicious. Arroz Con Mariscos has a nice spice to it and the flavors are amazing, not too salty which I prefer. I'm so glad I found this hidden gem! I can't wait to try all their food!

Stumbled upon this place by accident when the restaurant I was planning on was unexpectedly closed. I don’t normally leave reviews but my experience was so pleasant I had to share.I had the lunch special Lomo Saltado, and it was delicious! The beef was tender and the flavors of the sauce accented it perfectly. The quantity of food was more than enough for me, and I ended up taking the rest home. The complimentary cup of chicken soup was spectacular as well, with a unique flavor and a touch of spice that wasn’t overpowering.The staff (owners?) were very personable and attentive, it felt more like I had been invited into someone’s home for lunch. I can’t wait to try another dish next time I’m in the area.

Food was super delicious!. Peruvian roast chicken. Husband said," It was fantastic"We are coming back. Excellent customer service. Good environment:)

Amazing food and services we enjoyed and will be back

Very friendly staff, and delicious food... we wanted to try something new, and found our new favorite restaurant. Only place in Phoenix with quality seafood dishes. Thank you for the experience! We will most definitely be back!
