This Peruvian spot is low-key and full of locals. The lomo saltado arrives sizzling, and the fries stay crispy under the sauce. I love the aji verde—spicy but not punishing. Ceviche is generous with fish and sweet potato. Plenty of parking in the lot, and service keeps water topped off without hovering

We stopped by El Rocoto before heading to the Summer Nights 2025 Brandon Lake & Phil Wickham concert, and wow—what a perfect start to the evening!
The Peruvian cuisine here is absolutely delicious—each dish was bursting with flavor, cooked to perfection, and served with heart. From the fresh ceviche to the savory lomo saltado, every bite felt like a little celebration.
Service was friendly, the vibe was welcoming, and it set the tone for a beautiful night ahead. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Peruvian food that hits the spot and then some!

Very disappointed. The worst saltado de pollo I ever had. Seems like they cooked everything separately, chicken was white, dry, like cooked then fried then added to the rest. Soggy fries, but no taste at all, same for the lomo saltado, just horrible!!! No wonder we got food served in less than 5 minutes. Regret not taking a picture, let the waiter know but he was so indiferente in making it right. Not going back!!!

If you are looking for some good good Peruvian fusion food this is your place. They have variety on the menu and definitely most dishes are recommended, I loved the ceviche and the combination ChauFa.

As always, this place never fails to satisfy my cravings for lomo saltado. Great Peruvian dishes. I have been going to this place for the last 10 years and am always satisfied.
