Great food. Aji has been a great choice for good peruvian food in the neighborhood. Service is always good, and the ambiance is great for a date night.

Love this place so much!!! My fiancé and I went here on our first ever date and so it already holds a special place for us, but deservingly so. This place is delicious. I've tried multiple things on their menu and nothing ever misses. They also give you a complimentary chip appetizer which i couldn't get enough of and had to physically stop myself because I knew the rest of the delicious food was coming. Service is always great and the establishment is very clean. There is lots of seating and a small parking lot in the back. If that lot is full then you can find street parking. The Anticuchos, lomo saltado, jalea mixto, ceviche, Seco, and stir fried noodles are all so tasty. The flavors are never lacking, plus there are so many other things on the menu to try. I love this place and will always come back.

Best Peruvian food I have had in my life. The hardest part was deciding what to order. The menu is clean and amazing and it's a classy place. The service was also great. I had the ceviche and beef heart (trust me it takes like steak if you didn't know). Certainly would come here again.

I love what these people can do with a potato! The wine and the causas and everything is just fantastic.

Tried Aji Peruvian restaurant for the first time last night. First, there is a small parking lot in the back but the time limit says 90 minutes. I doubt the restaurant enforces this but street parking is not bad at all. We had trouble opening the front door (weak hands) so entered through the back! The restaurant's ambiance is upscale casual. The brick and high ceilings give it a warm setting. We ordered a bottle of wine; reasonably priced selection. The complimentary chips were crisp and a nice gesture. We ordered the Causa Trio and Ceviche Nikkei to start. The Causa Trio is not only beautiful but delicious. I was worried about the potato base being too heavy but it's anything but. Since there were two of us, we were delighted that we could easily cut them in half. The Ceviche Nikkei has a bit of kick to it; not anything overwhelming and the ahi tuna is chilled and refreshing. I put some of it on those delicious chips. We kept with the seafood theme and ordered the fish entree (Pescado A lo Macho) which came with rice. The sauce was so good and the fish light. It was large enough to share, given that we had two starters. Although disappointed that they have no decaf-coffee available (this is my pet peeve as too many restaurants do not offer decaf post Covid - I'm sorry but just regular coffee at night is a no-starter for me), we decided to check out a dessert and ordered the sweet potato-based doughnuts, Picarones. They came with a syrup on the bottom of the dish. Crisp and although not 'super light' were an excellent dessert to share. I'll be back!
Great food, even better service. Rosita is awesome!

Enjoyed having dinner date here on a Saturday night. Food was delicious. Serving personnel were quite friendly. Highly recommend empanadas and asking for their homemade hot sauce(s).

I’ve tried all of the ceviches here and love all of them! The plantains are also bomb. And the Seco de Res is amazing.

We went here for dinner tonight with 4 adults and two small children and I can’t recommend it enough. The space is very cool, the service was extremely nice and the food was incredible. I would especially recommend the ceviche mercado and the flan.
