El Causa Reviews
If you’re craving real Peruvian flavor, this place absolutely delivers 🇵🇪🔥 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The ceviche was espectacular—fresh, perfectly balanced, and full of that authentic citrus kick that takes you straight to the coast of Peru. The pollo al horno was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right, and the ají de gallina… wow. Creamy, rich, and packed with tradition—pure comfort food at its finest.
I’ve tried Peruvian restaurants all over San Jose,...read full review
The food here is fantastic. I had the Chicken Sandwich, The Chicken Plate, Chicha Morada Drink. The chicken was cooked perfectly, as well as the rice but I love the beets, potatoes, peas, carrots,lime,mayo,salt and pepper side dish. I could eat that everyday. This is definitely the best Peruvian food I have ever had. Please do yourself a favor and try El Causa.
