I love this place! The interior is nice the security guys are nice and friendly and I feel like I am in a nice supper club. And best of all they seem to have a lot of Latin music. My friend and I had a great time. The one very important feature that I would hope would be greatly considered is to put in nice wood floors or anything that doesn't stick. I am a salsa dancer and no serious salsa dancer would dance on this floor because it is sticky. You can hurt your knees as a woman doing turns on a sticky floor. I will return but I don't plan on dancing while I am there which is unfortunate. Have you ever tried to dance on carpet? I was there on October 14, 2023.

The food is fine but nothing extraordinary. The staff is great and will treat you well and they are very attentive. The food, however, is just okay. I've definitely had better Peruvian food but wouldn't go out of my way to come here again. If you're in the are it's worth checking out. The mojito I got was great though, definitely a highlight.

It's literally the best food I have ever had. Very nice welcoming people. Hospitality was great. This fish stew was awesome. The food was so authentic and fresh. The grapefruit juice was on point. The owners, mom, who happened to be the chef, came out to greet me, which made it even more amazing.

The food was mediocre at best (except for the dessert which was great) and seemed like I could have bought the food at Costco but the prices were 4x what they should have been. 12$ for a single kabab with white mushrooms. Yikes!

We walked in at 2:00 Saturday afternoon. Inside temp was about 85. Ordered the Peruvian chicken but was told it would take 45 minutes. So, settled for Chicken fried rice and wife had chicken tenders which took 30 minutes (we were the only patrons). Ordered unsweetened tea, but was told they only have sweet tea. Waitress was very nice. Very limited parking. Doubt we'll try it again.

Not worth it people! Have Nations burger across the street instead! We ordered Lomo Saltado - no taste at all and either the meat wasn't fresh or the fries whatever it was it didn't taste right. Also got, seafood ceviche - it was not fresh, little portion and no taste. Peruvian tamal - $12.00 for one and it had a few pieces of chicken, not worth it. 3 items plus 1 beer was $78.00 what a joke! Will not be returning.
El ceviche es el plato bandera del Peru. Pero aquí lo hacen muy mal. Tuve una mala experiencia con el Ceviche.

Food was delicious! The yuca especially is to die for! Incredible host and service! And the whole vibe of the restaurant was great! The owner was really nice and wanted to make sure everyone was enjoying their meals. Will definitely come again! Especially for the Yuca!

Out of all the Peruvian Restaurants in the Bay Area. I have chosen La Furia Chalaca cause it reminds me of the wonderful Chalaco culture . haven't been here since a month before Covid happened and look forward to the excellent food here.Taking my Dad here Wed 12th for my big day along with my daughter to celebrate both our days. Sooo yea, this place is a MUST!" Chimpu Callao!!"

I always walk by here and finally decided to give it a try , and man was I glad I did. I came in at 3pm on a Saturday, expecting it to be busy but it was completely empty. The employee quickly greeted me, and provided me with a menu when I told her I would be ordering takeout. They conveniently have two menus one vegetarian menu and one regular menu. I'd seen plenty of reviews on the anticuchos, aka the beef heart skewers, and I thought I would live a little and give it a try. I also ordered the lomo saltado, which is thinly cut steak served with vegetables rice and French fries. While I was waiting for my food, I could not help but appreciate the interior of this restaurant. This place is designed exceptionally well. This would be a perfect atmosphere for a lunch/dinner date or to meet friends. I was utterly amazed at the interior and ambiance of this restaurant. The food was prepared in about 10 minutes, and the entire time I could smell the delicious and mesmerizing aromas coming from the kitchen. I regretted getting my food to go because those savory scents made me want to dig into the food as soon as it came out. Once I finally got enjoy the food, my only two regrets were: 1. Why didn't I order more menu items ?2. Why haven't I tried this place earlier?The anticuchos was marinated and cooked to perfection. Beef heart is not something you see on a menu often and a lot of places that serve it tend to overcook it which causes it to be overly tough and chewy. You only get one skewer for this order, but there is a good amount of beef on that one skewer. This dish is served with sliced potatoes that added a nice textural balance to the dish. The sauce they serve it with is a bit spicy, so test it out first before bathing your food in it. The anticuchos is probably not for everyone, as beef heart has a slight iron like taste to it that some people might not like if they are not accustomed to it. The lomo saltado was pretty tasty, however I thought there was far too much rice and not enough steak and vegetables compared to most places I've gotten this dish in the past. The rice was your typical white rice, nothing special. But the beef and vegetables were seasoned nicely and cooked to perfection. Price wise, this restaurant is not cheap but not overly expensive. For the two dishes I got, it came out to around $42 not including gratuity. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes Peruvian food and/or is looking for a place with a nice ambiance to enjoy a meal alone, a dare, or friends/family. I will definitely be returning and checking out some of their other menu items.
