Avenida Peru shifted gears after opening their second restaurant (Lima Restaurant). They moved the whole menu to the new restaurant and turned this into a polleria with some traditional street food options. The pollo a la brasa is OUTSTANDING! We chose the full chicken with French fries and salad and left stuffed with plenty of leftovers! Delicious chicha morada, too.

Every time we come we order the ceviche and the lomo saltado because both are so extraordinary and they balance each other so well with the contrasting flavors. Just really freaking good food. The restaurant doesn’t look like much from the outside but Avenida Peru knocks it out of the park every time.
