Peruvian Restaurants near Tamarac, FL

“Sometimes the best meals don’t come from the fanciest dining rooms—they come from places that simply know how to cook food with flavor. That’s exactly why La Granja continues to earn a loyal following throughout South Florida.

On this visit, I ordered the half chicken with rice, black beans, and sweet plantains. From the first bite, it was obvious why people keep coming back. The chicken was juicy, well-seasoned, and packed with flavor throughout. Every piece had that slow-marinated taste that many chicken chains try to achieve but rarely deliver.

The black beans were a standout. Rich, savory, and full of flavor, they tasted like they had been simmering for hours rather than scooped from a steam table. Paired with the rice, they created the kind of comfort-food combination that feels homemade.

The sweet plantains brought the perfect balance of sweetness to the plate, soft and caramelized with just the right amount of color.

What truly separates La Granja from the competition is the onion bar. The selection of spicy onions, garlic onions, and fresh pico-style onions allows customers to customize every bite. Those toppings add acidity, texture, freshness, and heat that elevate the entire meal. As a chef, I appreciate details like that because they’re the difference between a good meal and a memorable one.

And yes, I’m going to say it: La Granja is better than Pollo Tropical. The chicken is more flavorful, the black beans have more depth, and the condiment bar creates a more complete dining experience. While Pollo Tropical helped popularize Caribbean-style grilled chicken in South Florida, La Granja delivers a bolder flavor profile that keeps me coming back.

Rating: 9/10

If you’re looking for flavorful chicken, excellent black beans, sweet plantains, and one of the best condiment bars in South Florida, La Granja remains one of the best values in town. Sometimes simple food done right beats everything else.“

“Amazing. I highly recommend the all you can eat for $34.99! Best $35 that I’ve ever spent on food. Basically a 6 course meal, and if you want more, then you can order more!

Our server Emilie was amazing explaining the menu items every step along!“

The food was exquisite! We ordered ceviches, anticuchos, and grilled “brasa” conch, and every dish exceeded our expectations. It always feels great to visit a restaurant where the staff genuinely makes you feel welcome and well taken care of.

If you’re looking for authentic, delicious Peruvian cuisine, this place is 100% recommended. Thank you, Guayo and Hector, for making every visit such a wonderful experience!

“The mixed ceviche was delicious. Fresh seafood with great flavor. The citrus balance was perfect. Loved every bite.“

“I have been going to la granja for years..why? Because the food is always good. Consistency. The chicken is always hot, fresh, and juicy. I love all the sauces and the topping bar. Lastly there is a lunch special that is just the right amount of food for most people. I recommend that. it’s rice beans and 1/4 chicken. for like $7,$8. Can’t beat that.“

“My husband, my youngest son and I used to have lunch or dinner here. The stuff is friendly, respectful and helpful. You do not have to expend lot of time waiting.
We really enjoyed the Latin tasting, and the amount of food is more than enough for one person; thus often we can take some to home.
Strongly recommend this restaurant 👌“

“The food is fresh, flavorful, and the veggies are perfectly crisp and not overcooked like Chinese takeout can be sometimes. Absolutely delicious. We got the beef and broccoli, beef with mixed vegetables, roast pork with bean sprouts, and orange chicken, all dinner combos that come with fried rice, egg roll and soup. The portions are HUGE. Definitely getting at least 2-3 meals from each. The wontons are delicious and actually authentic tasting Hong Kong style wontons. My whole family loved it all and will be making Wing’s a regular stop for lunch and dinner.“

“(Translated by Google) Good place to stop for a snack. Inside the Sawgrass. There are sockets to charge the cell phone almost everywhere. I went on a weekday and it was quiet with few people. There is everything from sushi to chicken burgers. Acceptable prices.(Original)Buen lugar para hacer una parada para tomar un refrigerio. Dentro del Sawgrass. Hay tomas para cargar el celular en casi todos lados. Fui un día de semana y estaba tranquilo con poca gente. Hay desde sushi hasta amburguesas de pollo. Precios aceptables.“

“Every location of La Granja is terrific. The food, quality of service, and cleanliness of the store is fantastic and consistent. The portions are generous and salsa bar makes every meal even better. The steel cutlery elevates the experience, too. I'm always happy to eat at La Granja when I'm in Florida“

“Ok. Don’t let the outside appearance steer you away.
At first, I said, what the heck…

La Granja is such a wonderful spot with a friendly crew running it.
The food is delicious, fresh and authentic.
My favorite part or this restaurant is their salsa and sauce station, where the guests can fill up their own little cups of salsas and spicy sauces to go, or to dine in.
I had the steak meal, with rice, beans and sweet plantains, it was flavorful and everything was well seasoned.
Definitely come here if you’re looking for a meal that will for sure fill you and not break your wallet“

“We stopped by for an early dinner before heading next door for a movie. We ordered the jalea mixta, the lomo saltado with pesto pasta and fried yucca. The service was fast and the food was delicious! We enjoyed our meal with time to spare before our movie. I highly recommend stopping by!“

“The food was ready fairly quickly. Large portions, so bring your appetite. Passable atmosphere, but I tend to make a lot of people stare ?

Parking: The amount of parking spaces (maybe 12) should be able to fill up their tables. There's also a drive-through for to go orders.“
