Peruvian Restaurants near Pasadena, CA

“Hidden Gem in Pasadena! Very Yum!“

“This place exceeded my expectations. I just picked the first Peruvian restaurant in the area because I was craving this type of food and I went thinking it was just a little place with ok food. The ambience is cozy and the food was excellent. All the servers were attentive and quick to take our orders and bring food. My only complaint is that they are too far away from me so I wont be able to come often but if I do, I know is worth the hour drive!! This place is 5 out of 5 . I definetly recommend the ceviche B69 and Chiquitos Serranos“

“My only complaint was it was hard to speak to others at the table because the music was loud. The owner is a very sweet guy who comes to your table and gives new people samples of their drinks and popular Peruvian ice cream .He proudly explains the popular dishes and their Peruvian ingredients. The staff, owner and food made this restaurant so classy! The homemade food was not only delicious but special. The owner gets his ingredients from and that are grown in Peru. It was fun to eat food with ingredients that is new and tasted sooo good! It was such a treat. The Peruvian ice cream made from Locuma fruit is actually nutritious! The chicha morada drink also is different and beneficial.
I'm coming back for my son's birthday! You can't go wrong with this wonderful restaurant!!!“

“great food and the owner and chef are my good friends!“

“Love the food. Great quality and friendly service“

“It's been many years since I had been here since I moved out of area. I visited yesterday for my birthday and was pleasantly surprised restrant had been remodeled looks crisp and clean. Service was great. They served us Bread rolls that are addicting with creamy butter . Food was just as tasty as I remember. I started with fried calamari it was very tender and beautiful crispy crunch. A must try for sure! We had Loma saltado and shrimp saltado flavors were pleasing to my taste buds. We also ordered Garlic shrimp plate . The shrimp was large and plenty . Flavorful . They all came with a side of yummy rice.we were to full for dessert but i'm hoping to pace myself next time so I can try one.I recommend this place.“

“Amazing authentic peruvian food!!! We tried their ceviche at the Peruvian Festival in Plazita Olvera this year and had to come try more dishes. Aguadito soup is DELICIOUS!!! Tallarines Verdes with steak was EXTRAORDINARY!!! Definitely will be coming back!“

“Very good place to get your Peruvian food fix. The menu is pretty diverse. We got the classic lomo saltado and tried the ceviche de pescado. They first gave us bread that was garlic bread surprisingly with the aji sauce. It was delicious and spicy and garlicky. The ceviche de pescado was excellent. It had that tangy citrus orange marinade with lime and with the nuts and corn nuts. The white fish was soft and cooked thoroughly and delicious. The lomo came out in huge portions that surprised me (basically two meals). The sauce and fries went well together with the onions rice and tomatoes. The meat was decent and it all went together well.

The table came in a lazy Susan style for family style sharing which is convenient. The waiter was very nice but not very attentive as we had to ask for water and check & boxes by intentionally getting their attention and walking to them for assistance. The decor is very chill and homely with a variety of music in the background. The whole place is very red and decorated with various Peruvian cultural references.

Prices are fairly reasonable for the portions you get.“

“Really good Peruvian Food we had the whole chicken 2 of them and 3 Lomo saltados with rice n beans homemade flour tortillas nd all the sauces they had were really good. Delicious grub..“

“A top restaurant in LA for me. Hummingbird has some of the most creative and delicious handrolls and crostatas I’ve ever tasted. Their food will make Peruvian folks excited to see something familiar and those unfamiliar very curious. The service is laid back and easygoing — I’ve always been impressed with how quick the food came out. I’ll never get over the wonderful atmosphere, purple corn tea, and orange salmon handroll. A must visit in LA!“

“First of all this restaurant deserves its flowers and praises. Their rotisserie chicken is so good and tasty didn’t leave anything behind, I almost ate the bone 🤤 I’ve have Peruvian food all of the world but this right HERE is the best chicken I’ve ever aren’t in the states, it’s seasoned to perfection and it’s crispy not greasy nor oily. It melts in your mouth pretty much“

“AMAZING!! THE BEST PLACE IN SOUTH EL MONTE!! TRY THE LOMO SALTADO ANDA THE TIKI FRIES“

“Absolutely the best new restaurant inLos Angeles. Wonderful staff. Gorgeous facility indoors and patio. Exquisite and unique delicious food.“

“Got the lomo saltado and tallarin Verde. Tallarin was ok but the lomo was good. I give it a 7/10, the food was hot and fresh. This is a very small spot, so u might have to take it to go. The lady that served us was very nice and polite, loved the service.“

“Pollo a la Braza, Lomo Saltado, Ceviche y la Jalea de pescado son mis favoritos!!! Somos clientes desde hace cerca de 30 años, desde el primer día que abrieron.“

“We had fantastic time at Lola's. Food was amazing and portions are vere generous. We were there on Friday night ans it was packed. Live music was a total hit so after delicious dinner even did some dancing. By far one of the best looking peruvian restaurants. If there was anything to be desired it was hot outside and couple of their ac units were not functioning so it was a bit hot inside but ambience and food and service made up for it. We will gladly come back.“

“Absolutely delicious chicken molè burrito. Highly recommended. I always will ask for the beans and rice to be on the side instead of inside. That’s just me though. Oh but the music was a bit to loud, I could barely hear my buddy for a conversation.“
