“Papa Llama, 2840 Curry Ford Road, Orlando- 4-Stars Michelin Recommended- Bib Gourmand! Peruvian immigrants, Kevin and Maria Ruiz, say they founded Papa Llama in 2016 as an experimental pop up and opened the doors of this location in August 2020. In 2022, they earned the Michelin Guide's coveted "Bib Gourmand" award for establishments that serve good food at reasonable prices so naturally, I got excited. Paulina, my server, was well prepared and knowledgeable, making for an auspicious beginning in a gorgeous environment featuring good prices for dishes that could be made to satisfy both carnivores and herbivores alike. I ordered the entire family style menu which was, according to Papa Llama, "designed to be tasted together, shared, and fought over." So much food for just over a hundred dollars. The prices may have been cheap but the taste and quality of (most) victuals valieron un Perú! A hearty Big Boy Thank You (Sulpayki!) to Kevin and Maria and the culinary dactylograms of their ancestors, on this amazing cuisine (Somaq Mihuna!). The first item on the menu was Olives--whole green Castelvetrano olives marinated in house with aji panca--which were so delectable I could eat them all day. Next, the Red + Gold Beets, a minty beet salad with honey ají amarillo vinaigrette, queso fresco, and candied pistachio, which started out smooth and creamy and ended with a pleasantly piquant bite. Papas a la Huancaína followed, a fingerling potato dish with spicy aji amarillo cream, wakatay (black mint) salsa verde, and beef chicharron, topped with a fried egg. The potatoes themselves were not the star, but the combination of flavors in the sauce were amazing, unctuous but smooth. Papa Llama carries a long list of natural wines, more wines than food items, actually. That evening, I chose the Yuzu Sake, and may I say, "Holy smokes!" How refreshing after consuming so many peppers. The rest of the dishes I would give 4.5 to 5-Stars, EXCEPT for the side of frozen Sysco French fries which almost ruined an otherwise stellar meal. There are over 300 kinds of potatoes in Peru. Over 300! Perhaps in the United States we don't have the same abundance as found in El Valle Sagrado (the Sacred Valley) but, por favor, do not stoop to this! The Big Boy says, "Eat here. All the authentic Peruvian flavors at Papa Llama are 5-Star, but skip the fries, which are a corporate conglomerate frozen food disappointment."”

“The food is great but because they have so many dishes that most people are not familiar with and have Japanese names, the restaurant should have the wait staff explain the menu or at least ask if the customer would like a run though of the menu. The staff were very nice if maybe a little inexperienced and did explain some of the more obscure dishes when asked. The only reason I gave the atmosphere 4 rather than 5 stars is for how dark the place is. I could not read the small print on the menu without my phone flashlight. Otherwise, the atmosphere is relaxed but upscale with a modern, clean aesthetic.”

“Chef David and team do an Outstanding job preparing, serving and delivering the best sushi around! The food is second to none! Always a pleasure seeing the team and especially dining with all of the sushi choices which were all 5 out 5! Can't wait to go back!”

“We came from visiting Disney Springs, wanted a really yummy Bloody Mary. Googled this place, drive was 28 minutes. The restaurant is in the middle of a neighborhood which is unique. Parking is on the street. We were even lucky to get two seats at the bar. The host told us 1.5 hour wait, it was Sunday about 11:30am. Being from out of town, that would have really sucked if we didn't get to sit and eat. The Bloody Mary was delicious. The crab cakes were the best I've had in a long time. Not super greasy, light and a bit of a crunch inside with the crab meat. Maybe onion, not sure. Loved the smoked salmon and avocado pita bites. The fried green tomatoes were alright. I didn't like the kale salad. The Chicken and palmento cheese sandwich was disappointing....the chicken was over cooked like the bacon, but we just added extra cheese to help eat it. I would come here again just for the drinks, and try something else if we are in Orlando again. Both bar tenders were very friendly and helpful. I would make reservations if you plan on coming.”

“The best Italian restaurant in central Florida!”

“Go weekly for happy hour and love it!”

“Great spot! Fabulous food I try octopus wherever I can find it on the menu and I've not had any as good. Exceptional service at the bar with Justin. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Last night's visit to Hawkers was a truly exceptional experience, with every one of the five appetizers and three meals exceeding expectations. The creative drinks were an added bonus, making this a highly recommended destination for anyone seeking outstanding cuisine.”

“Love! Best truly Mexican food in a long while!”

“Nos gustó mucho, pedimos clvarios platos, lo único que nos encontramos poca cantidad es en los Chicharrones bites en comparación precio-porcion. pero muy rica la comida y buen servicio.”

“We love coming here to eat. Food is excellent”

“Delicious sushi! I got the baller set which was very good and nice to try once, but I’ll probably just order from the regular menu in the future.

It is standing room only and doesn’t feel crowded tho the place is quite small.

The only thing I really didn’t care for was the 1 hour slot, I feel like it could be 1.5 hours and that might be better because it felt a bit rushed at the end when getting the last pieces, soup, and s’mores. I felt like I had to scarf my s’mores down quickly to get out on time.

Overall, the place is great and I would come back again in the future!!”

“Came on a Tuesday before a Broadway Across America show and made it in time for happy hour! Great food and drink specials for happy hour! We ordered three dishes to share, each was more delicious than the last! The wangz were good but a tad sweet for my taste. The Brussels were fantastic, I think my favorite item we got. The sliders were delicious, well cooked and seasoned. The service was great, very attentive. Our server, Brendan, made great recommendations! The vibe was vibing too! We will definitely be back soon to try more of the menu!”
