Peruvian Restaurants in San Francisco, CA

“The food is sooooo good and delicious with a very nice ambiance and atmosphere in their patio dining ..“

“Came here for dinner. This is a Peruvian restaurant, and the menu does the classics: empanadas, anticuchos, lomo saltado, pollo a la brasa, the whole rotisserie chicken program.

The cocktails were good. We started with the empanadas, which had a lot of flavor packed into them, well seasoned, not just a pastry shell with filler. The pollo chicharrones (deep fried chicken nuggets, basically) were also solid, crispy exterior, juicy inside, properly seasoned rather than relying on dipping sauce to do the work.

For my main I got the lomo saltado. The beef was cubed and tender, and the brown sauce had real depth to it, savory without being one-note. Everything I ordered was well prepared, no notes, no surprises, just good execution across the board.
The vibe inside is laid back and a little goofy in a good way. The floor is covered in astroturf, there are decorative butterflies all over the walls (fitting, given the name), and they had the World Cup playing. It's not trying to be a serious dining room, and it doesn't need to be.

Good food, good drinks, fun room. Would come back.“

“The best Bang Bang Wings and the food it out of this world! 👌🏼“

“El Rincón de Jorgito is a must in San Francisco if you’re craving authentic Peruvian food. From the moment you walk in, the service is warm and welcoming—like you’re being hosted by family.

And the food… wow. The ceviche is absolutely magical—fresh, bright, perfectly balanced, and packed with flavor. The lomo saltado is to die for: tender, savory, and cooked just right. And the causa is amazingly delicious—creamy, flavorful, and the kind of dish you keep talking about after you leave.

Simple, honest, unforgettable Peruvian food with great portions and genuinely kind service. Highly recommend! 🇵🇪🔥“

“Everything that I got so so delicious“

“We had two events here recently and it was a wonderful experience. The staff was great to work with, the owner and his wife were both there to make sure everything went smoothly. Their event manager was great to work with and it was a very streamlined process. The food was excellent, drinks were great, and the restaurant had fun decor. We received so many compliments on the venue and food from our attendees. We will definitely be going back for future events.“

“Everything on the menu needs to be experienced.“

“Wow. Everything we ate here was fabulous and the cocktails were delicious. I especially loved how tasty and juicy the chicken chicharrones were.“

“The pollo a la brasa was delicious, juicy and the portion was generous! Great vibes, very family friendly and good music- we even had live music! The staff, especially Vanessa was very friendly, fast and helpful. The bathroom was very clean and easy to use. Will be coming back!“

“We’ve been eagerly waiting for this to open. Managed to book a spot during its soft opening. Giving them a bit of grace as they work through kinks. They really did a great job with the spot. I ordered the maracuya pisco sour which had passion fruit. It wasn’t sickly sweet and it tempered the sour if you’re not too keen. We split the dungeness crab causa. They had a potato masher to mash the purple potato. We ordered lomo soltado and thai salmon. The rice that came with the lomo soltado had a few pieces of the giant corn. It was noticeably delicious but not enough to sop up the juice with the lomo soltado. I would have ordered more but wanted to bring some leftovers so it was fine. We split the churro ice cream sandwich which was delicious but you have to eat quickly because the ice cream melted. I had the lucuma tiramisu which was sooo good. Never had lucuma before but it was good. Glad that I ordered it.
Someone ordered the sophi sashimi which came in a glass dome and lots of smoke. Lots of smoke that lingered and smelled like camp fire. Great presentation but a bit much after effects. Overall, great experience albeit a bit on the pricey side. Will come back again once they’ve worked out the kinks.
Update: Been coming here for the happy hour. Great cocktails and nibbles for $10-13 or so. Definitely worth checking out.“

“Highly recommend is one of the best Peruvian food in the Bay Area , excellent service nice friendly service“

“The ceviche is my favorite dish here! The fish is always incredibly fresh, perfectly marinated, and full of flavor. I love the traditional sides of sweet potato, corn, and crunchy toasted corn that make the dish complete. Every bite tastes fresh and authentic. If you’re visiting for the first time, I highly recommend trying the ceviche.“

“I rarely post reviews but had to chime in as this was such an outstanding experience with Lima Peruvian! I catered an event in my home and the food arrived on time, piping hot, carefully marked for ingredients and allergens and was just so delicious. I received countless compliments and requests from guests to find out where the food came from. The order included a mix of meat, meatless and vegan offerings that really hit the spot. In particular, the Loma Saltado, Aji de Gallina (Creamy Yellow Chicken), Seco de Pollo (Green Herb Chicken), Vegan Split Pea Amarillo and rice were outstanding. Thank you Lima Peruvian!“
