“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."“

“Shirley and all staff were amazing. Food was delicious and all their recommendations were on point. I highly recommend this place. Bring family, friends and even better if with your partner, spouse etc. you won’t t regret it.“

“Nuestra primera vez y no será la última. Como peruana que soy les quiero compartir la excelente experiencia que tuve con mi familia. Todos los platos y postres tienen el sabor 🇵🇪😋🇵🇪👏🏻“

“A Hidden Gem! I’m so happy we stopped here for lunch—what a wonderful surprise! I had the lomo saltado and it was absolutely delicious. My husband ordered the fish and he said it was amazing as well. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We truly enjoyed everything about this place. Please open a location in Clermont, FL—we’d be your first customers!“

“Absolutely delicious 😋 🍯😍🤣“

“la comida es excelente, el servicio es excelente. Lo único que no nos gusta es que ponen mucho reggeton, demasiado, por lo cual la estadía no es tan agradable“

“They came down from Brooklyn! Carribbean inspired dishes that taste great! Nice and friendly staff. Awesome, freshly cooked rotis! Just had their jerk chicken and it was amazing! And they do catering and have a beautiful party room and outdoor area!“

“I haven't been to La Granja since they just had the chintzy location on OBT, I'm happy to see they're expanding, and the food quality is just as good, if not better! The building was super clean, the staff were very nice, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. I'll def be back!“

“Went to eat for the first time and it was very good! Food is fresh and tasty, the employees were helpful. I’ll definitely go back. ✌️“

“This is literally one of my favorite places to eat. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly they really stick to their slogan home style food fast.

They have a toppings bar with a habanero sauce and onions, garlic, onion sauce, a mild tomato onion and cilantro, and then a spicy jalapeño cilantro and onion.

If you haven’t eaten here you should.“

“Nobody else in Orlando does Peruvian food better than Aji! I have been a huge fan of their 2 other restaurant locations (Aji Ceviche Bar). Now with the Aji Express they have taken it to another level. They offer Pollo a la Braza wich is so juicy and full of flavor. They have a huge selection of dishes that are found at their other 2 restaurants. The food is always so fresh, you can taste the quality ingredients in every dish. We took my mom for Mother's Day and she was over the moon. The service was fast and the staff incredibly helpful. This Peruvian girl will be telling everyone about this new location. The quality of food you get for the price can't be beat.“

“This location treated me & my son with much respect & care while eating here for a quick lunch. The managers & workers were very kind! A worker saw me with my son & helped carry the high chair for me, then later brought me a spoon because I had a fork, later my son knocked over my plate before leaving and they kindly made me a plate of whatever I lost on the floor. They even helped me clean the spot. The food was great & they kept the area clean while we were eating. Picking up as the day went along. Definitely will try to come back and this was my first time eating from here, especially inside. Appreciate the nice service & glad I left a tip👍🏽💯👏🏽😎🫡“

“Ordered two meals, grilled pork and lomo saltado, and both were amazing! The plaintains and rice that accompanied the meals was also delicious (super tasty and not dry). Ordered "to go" at the restaurant, and it was cooked and packaged quickly.“

“Love this restaurant. The food is fantastic, and the same with the service.“

“Muy buena atención de parte de los meseros . Ambiente familiar y la comida buena calidad ☺️“
