Ceviche mixture my top dish here, flavor is amazing. Lomo saltado is another great dish with an inka cola.

If you’re looking for REAL, authentic, soul warming Peruvian food with incredible flavors and even better people behind it, Asumare Peruvian Cuisine is the place!!!
This was one of those dining experiences that sticks with you, and not just because the food was amazing, but because the hospitality made it feel like you were being welcomed into someone’s home.
We started with the Yuca Frita with Huancaína, and it was the perfect introduction to the menu. The yuca fries were fried beautifully, crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. The huancaína sauce was rich, creamy, and full of flavor. That yellow sauce had a subtle warmth and depth without overpowering the yuca. It was comforting, and impossible to stop dipping.
Next up was the Lomo Saltado and woah this dish alone is worth the visit. We ordered it with ribeye and chicken thigh, and the combination was incredible. Everything was sauteed perfectly with onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, creating that classic savory, tangy, umami-packed flavor Peruvian cuisine is known for. The meat was tender and juicy, the vegetables were cooked just right, and the French fries soaked up all that flavor beautifully. Served alongside fluffy white rice, it was hearty, soooo satisfying, and incredibly well balanced. You could tell this dish was made with intention and experience.
We also tried the calamari which was another solid hit. And a first for me! Lightly fried, tender, and not rubbery at all. It was clearly fresh and cooked properly. It paired really well with everything else on the table and made for a great shareable dish.
But the real star of the night was a dish that completely surprised my partner and I! It ended up being our favorite dish, and it was the Tigre de Leche. THIS was hands down one of the freshest, most vibrant things we tried. The citrus was bold and super lemony, in the best way possible. You could taste the lime juice, the chile, onion, and cilantro all working together to create something bright, refreshing, and layered. It was zesty, slightly spicy, and incredibly clean tasting. One of those dishes where every spoonful wakes up your palate. If you’re a ceviche fan or just love bold citrus flavors, do NOT skip this. It is a definite MUST try.
Another thing that deserves a special mention is their iconic green sauce. It seriously went with everything we ordered. Creamy, herby, and just the right amount of kick, it elevated every dish from the yuca and calamari to the Lomo Saltado.
We found ourselves reaching for it nonstop. Seriously one of those sauces you immediately wish you could take home.
The customer service truly elevated the entire experience. Fabrisio, the owner, was phenomenal!He took the time to personally explain each dish, walk us through the flavors, and even share the story of how his restaurant came to be. You can feel the passion he has. Not just for Peruvian cuisine, but for creating a welcoming space for people to enjoy it. Super nice guy, super chill, and genuinely down-to-earth. The whole place gave off strong family vibes, which made the meal even more enjoyable.
Shoutout to Melissa as well, who was serving us. She was attentive, kind, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. The service felt thoughtful and personal, not transactional.
Over all we had the best experience, truly. Whether you’re new to Peruvian food or already love it, this spot is a gem. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit.
We will be back and have already recommended this place to my family and friends! Thanks so much for having me. :D

The Peruvian food was incredible, and the staff made us feel like family. Even though they were closed, they opened just for my friends and me so we could enjoy Pan con Chicharrón for breakfast before our flight home. Truly above and beyond. 10/10 recommend!

Hands down the best Peruvian food in Los Angeles! This small business is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you can tell it's the real deal – the aromas alone transport you straight to Peru. We ordered the lomo saltado and ceviche de pescado, and both were incredibly authentic and bursting with flavor. What's even better is how fast the service was, without sacrificing any of the deliciousness. You can tell they put a lot of love into their food. If you're looking for a quick, authentic, and unbelievably tasty Peruvian meal, look no further. Five stars all the way!

Authentic taste and friendly Service. 😋 it's my go to for Brazilian food 😋
I really hate to dunk on a super cute little place run by, i’m sure, great people but here I am. This place is STUPID OVERPRICED!!! I ordered just a lomo saltado to go, and she looked me dead in the face and said $20. I did a sextuple take. There were no prices anywhere, and on their yelp it says the lomo is under $13. “Maybe this will be the best fries, onions, steak and cilantro I’ve ever had!” I thought. The food came out quick enough, but was in no way shape or form worth $20. It was a decently large portion, but the steak was frankly not good. This is the first negative review I’ve ever left in my whole life and this happened over a week ago, but I still feel so ripped off I had to come vent. Maybe their other dishes are fantastic and well worth it, but I know for a fact you can get much better lomo with more bread and even rice for more like $12-17 at any other Peruvian place in LA. Let alone what you could get for $20 anywhere else. Sorry y’all, your place is super cozy and you all seem very nice but I feel how I feel.
