Charming place off a busy street the only drawback. Very friendly service. Attentive and personalble. The food was well prepared and tasty. I picked the place because of the name. Glad we went.

The food was super good! I had the pollo saltado that was delicious! The Maracuya (passion fruit drink) was super delicious and refreshing as well! Special shout out to everyone working tonight (Tanya, Alexis, and Leyna). Everyone was super helpful and nice!

Stopped in this evening out of pure cusitioty of the branding and name. Talk about service! Interacted with Tanya (princess in the making), Leyna (busting her ass), and Alexis (sweet pea making all the things happen)! Loved these ladies! Tonya served me and was out-freaking-standing!
The food? 🤌 So good! I had a couple drinks and the wonton soup with the saltado Mar y Tierra. Loved it! Also had some of their plantains which were exactly sweetened to perfection without being too much. Very tasty!
Highly recommend swinging through Flama Llama! FANTASTIC service. Food matches the level of service. Overall outstanding experience! 👍👍

Flama Llama is a true gem, an Asian and South American fusion spot that brings authentic flavor and creativity to a region mostly known for its Mexican cuisine. It’s refreshing to see a place that celebrates South American food properly and does it with so much love and respect while blending it beautifully with Asian influence.
Our servers Kylie and April made the experience even better. They were incredibly accommodating, kind, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain each dish perfectly and made us feel right at home.
As someone whose family is back in South America, this is the closest I’ve felt to home cooking in a long time. The plantains (“plátanos”) are absolutely perfect, crispy, sweet, and comforting, and the tamarind wings are out of this world. Honestly, I can’t recommend everything on the menu enough.
Flama Llama isn’t just a restaurant, it’s a taste of home, warmth, and genuine hospitality. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again.

I don’t glaze service too often but Tonya was genuinely excited to tell us about the cuisine and profiles of each dish. Yucca fries are a must, they are better than french fries in my opinion. Food came out within 2-3 minutes, so nice. After tip for 3 dishes and an authentic Peruvian banana pineapple drink it was $60. Filled us 2 up nicely. Such a quality experience, looking forward to coming back.
