“Excellent time at this quaint stylish restaurant. Not super familiar with Peruvian food but they had excellent flavors and enjoyed the overall experience. Thought the rice was a bit salty for my taste but each dish came out super aesthetic. As others have reviewed prior, the ceviche was a highlight and would definitely return for it. I would say that the service of the staff was all top notch and made our dinner really pleasant; just make sure to refill waters as I didn't get a refill until end of dining session upon request. Only about a dozen tables so make reservations. Well worth the effort if you're in the area“
“The food was artistically presented and delicious. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Ambiance casual yet classy. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves in terms of the absolute artistry this place has in presentation of its delicious food.“
“I was really impressed by this place!We got the coconut shrimp bao buns to start which were absolutely delicious. The shrimp was crispy and hot and the sauce/toppings took it over the top. Perfect snack before our entrees.I got the “cheese steak” ramen and it was truly one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. The short rib was tender, the caramelized onions brought so much flavor. The portion was extremely generous, was only able to eat half and took the other half to go.The tres leches tiramisu is a MUST. It was perfectly decadent without being too sweet or heavy.The service from the entire staff was amazing. They were super attentive with refilling our waters, clearing dirty plates and wrapping leftovers. Every staff member that interacted with us was extremely pleasant, accommodating and welcoming.My only small complaint would be that the tables are EXTREMELY close together. Like truly a couple inches. It made it hard to have conversation at times and it was awkward when you or the table next to you had to get in or out because it was very tight.Overall, we will absolutely be back and we look forward to trying more dishes!“
“Thank you for the excellent service Meybelin, very attentive and helpful, the food was delicious, the service very excellent, I love this restaurant and that is why I visit it frequently ??? the person who served me was super friendly, he deserves a raise ?“
“5 Star Spot ! Been going here since opening and service and food is always the same, TOP QUALITY - owner has staff well trained and the food reflects the quality and pride the owners have for the restaurant. Must try Chaufa and chicken ! and can't forget the chichi morada drink !“
“This is a complete taste of authentic Peruvian food! All my experiences here have been with takeout. Calling to place an order is always prompt and accurate. Pick up isn't ever more than 20 minutes for food to be ready. The weekends seem to be the busiest as tables are filled with customers. Walking in on the weekends, you'll be walking into classic Peruvian music and/or modern Spanish music. The llama upon entrance is a nice touch to its culture and opportunity for a nice photo. Most importantly, thumbs up to the fresh seafood used for their ceviche mixto. Don't forget to add the papa ha la huancaina as a side dish. Overall, I find the prices here fair for the quality and quantity of what they serve.“

“This spot is definitely a hidden gem.The location is conveniently located but the parking may be a bit difficult depending on what time you go.The service is wonderful! The young lady who served us was truly attentive & listened to all of our vegan needs. The food was amazing!! Fresh & super tasty!!We had the vegan sliders, waffle fries, vegan lo-mein, & the burrito grande. This location has portions down packed!! You get a great amount of food for what you pay for & quality taste. Our drinks were made to perfection!! Passion mint lemonade left me speechless!! Getting that every single time now.If you have any dog allergies be mindful of the fact that there is a business dog on premise. She did not bother anyone nor was she a nuisance. Something to be mindful of if you have allergies to dogs.We will definitely be returning.Thank you guys!!!Dietary restrictions: Vegan friendly!!“

“I live in West New York and I come with my family to taste delicious grilled chicken, the best is their fries. My kids love the Chaufa joint. Their portions are abundant and the food is very fresh. Pablo, always kind and helpful, takes great care of us.The owners are charming. Highly recommended.“
“The food is very good, the service is also very good because I thank the lady from Moños for being patient with me since I was a new customer and she very patiently attended to me and advised me on some dishes that I undoubtedly loved as well as me and everyone else. @ my family, I thank you very much for the attention of the ladies who are at the cash register, without a doubt it is a place where I would return for their service and attention“
“Really cool, hip spot in Caldwell for good Peruvian food. Our server knew exactly what to recommend as well when we asked about the specials, entrees, and appetizers. We had ceviche as a appetizer as well as some Maduros and they were quite tasty. I really enjoyed my main entree which was a Mofongo saltado which adds a nice Dominican fusion/flair to it. For dessert I went with the flan and espresso and I feel like you can't go wrong with that choice. My friends had the tres leches and they mentioned it was super tasty too. Not too many seats in the restaurant so make sure to call ahead and make a reservation.“
“Have been here a total of 3 times and it’s never a disappointment . Food is delicious and so well presented. If you want to give them a try would be great for lunch as lunch is 12.99 and they have so many delicious options that you cannot beat!!!“
“Very good food! All very well. I loved the huancaina noodles with loin. Come quick and try their amazing food!Parking: Parking is good but I didn't know there was parking in the back.Kid-friendliness: My daughter loves this restaurant. They gave him a puzzle!“
“The food was amazing, I would love to call out Aries and Angela who were the cooks behind the amazing cuisines I got to try. As well as Joseph and Kathy who were amazing servers, they were so attentive and gave some of the best customer service. They are an excellent team, with some of the best personalities. Not only were they friendly and fun to converse with but they positive, and welcoming. It made the aura the best to have a meal in.“
“There are many Peruvian restaurants but Julia’s Cafe is one of my newest favorite Peruvian food in town. The food is definitely authentically made by a Peruvian cook that understands the passion of culinary through Peruvian cuisine. Even down to sauces and spices you can taste some authenticity. We often get catering when we have a get-together or a birthday and they often times accept despite not having delivery drivers sometimes. I’m grateful for the owner and his service and for food. Everyone should give them a try and have a taste for themselves. ??“
“In a town with a thousand Peruvian restaurants.. la casa de ceviche is one to check out! Went there late for dinner on a Sunday. Ordered shrimp chaufa and chicken chaufa and both were very delicious. For $19-22 a plate, the serving size did not disappoint. The waitress did not understand English but the menu has both Spanish and English.10/10 would recommend trying.Que rico, gracias!“
“The food and service were excellent. The prices are affordable, they serve you the quantity and taste of their wonderful food. I went on a Saturday and they had live music. Good to enjoy with family, as a couple, with your friends or simply alone. A 10/10“
“First of all, the attention to some, the very kind lady waited for us because it was almost time to saw but the atmosphere was good vibes, for example the music, the food was very delicious, the airport, the magician's candy, the acevichado sushi, ufff, I have to return the acevichado maqui, I said sushi for They knit it for you, but one is Peruvian, it turns out that it's your za but recommended your guy Y7it?“

“A friend and I stopped by after driving for hours looking at apartments. We were just hungry and desperate for good food. Divina Frontera exceeded any expectations we had. We came around 6-7pm and everything we ordered (which was a lot) still came out fresh and delicious. I must say one of the things I’m most excited about moving to Elizabeth is being close to this gem.“
“A splendid place to eat with your family. The food here is filling as well as being well prepared, food can take as long as 15-30 minutes to complete on a busy day but the wait is worth it. The service is equally as great as the cousine. I would highly recommend anyone to come “
“Fast service and great size servings.Impressed on a Monday night all the tables were occupied in this small business.Food speaks for itself, and if you love Peruvian food you should try it out.Parking is tough, but what do you expect at Rahway.Staff was super friendly and for a speak easy restaurant the music playing in the background was delightful.“
“Went here on a Sunday, service was top notch, there also wasn't many people. The Waiter was very nice, helpful, and energetic. The food was very delicious! The Arroz Chaufa, Grilled Chicken, and Fries that my family ordered were the best of the best. If I could give this Restaurant more than 5 stars, I would. Definitely Recommend for anyone trying to look for delicious food!Kid-friendliness: Atmosphere is very calm and of the many times I've visited this Restaurant, I always see a family or two dining.Wheelchair accessibility: At the Door Entrance, there is a ramp accessible for People in Wheelchairs.“
“First time trying Peruvian food and it didnt fail me ❤️We ordered , lomo saltado , jalea and cevichewhen the food arrived ,our expectations continue to be exceeded.Every bit of our meal was scrumptiously satisfyingThe lomo saltado was cooked perfectly and the flavor tantalizes my tastebuds .Jalea contained abundant seafood that was almost too good to stop eating whileCeviche was also in generous portion , there was a perfect balance of fish and other fresh ingredients and spice ..i love mine extra picanteOver all the food and service was superb !!!Will definitely come back !“
“I loved this place. Excellent food and good service.My only issue is that the atmosphere could be a little more cozy. I only went in because it was highly recommended, but perhaps if it hadn't been that way, I probably wouldn't have gone in.Parking: Parking is small but free.“
“It is a small place but very cozy, it has a wide Colombian menu, I ordered the tripe and I really liked it, they have a menu for children, do not miss this experience since it is not a spicy food Low in salt, the rice has that garlic flavor and onion reminds us of the homemade “
“Great restaurant and atmosphere, the food was very delicious and to its perfection. Abel our waiter was so welcoming and very professional. He gave us options in regards to menu options and would highly recommend to anyone around the area. Will definetely come back for the food and drinks ?“
“My family and I love ordering from this restaurant. The food is always fresh, delicious, and plentiful. The owner is always pleasant to speak with and the service is always good. The ambiance is small but comfortable. Their lomo saltado and chaufa especial are our go to order, it's delicious every time.“
“Humble place, but don't let it fool you.This is the BEST PERUVIAN FOOD I've tried in the area and I'm a big fan of Peruvian food,This is the best food so far, fresh and tasty made with loveAmazing lomo saltado, the Ceviche was very fresh, and the seafood soup was “
“We have been to the cheapest to the highest class Peruvian restaurants. We have never been charged, much less $5, for the little bowl of corn nuts (cancha) you get at every Peruvian restaurant in America. To sum it up, I brought six people, spent over $200 and they felt I needed to pay $5 for something that is free at 98% of restaurants. You also get six fries/potatoes in your lomo, so be ready for that.“
“The food is amazing I had the chicken fried rice and it’s amazing. The waiters are very nice and they are there to help with your every need. I have been coming to this restaurant for years and would recommend.Parking: There is a lot of parking in the back of the restaurant.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp.“
“I built a core memory today, the day I found the best Peruvian Food in New Jersey. WOW! My expectations have been met and exceeded. The Chaufa was so good and such a large portion they clearly price the food knowing they are going to sell out. The ceviche mixto was amazing perfect lime and spicy level… I’ve always had to add lime or salt from other ceviches but not this one.The filete de pescado was perfectly cooked. Overall I’m excited to try the other dishes they offer I know I will not be disappointed.“
“I have returned after a certain time and I have to say:EXQUISITE FOOD.CAREFUL AND VERY ATTENTION ATTENTION.REASONABLE PRICES.THE ENVIRONMENT VERY NICE AND COZY.CONTINUE LIKE THIS!!!I have returned after a certain time and I have to say:EXQUISITE FOOD.CAREFUL AND VERY ATTENTION ATTENTION.REASONABLE PRICES.THE ENVIRONMENT VERY NICE AND COZY.CONTINUE LIKE THIS!!!“
“So I would say food is good, service is great overall. Just a heads up: when ordering online for take out, the sauces they give are almost not even filled up and more watery consistency. It used to be creamy. It was not like this before, dont know why they changed it. Unlike when you eat in, the same sauces are actually better ??♀️“
“Loved the food and drinks we got here. Those yucca balls were really tasty, must be the sauce. Octopus appetizer was good. The Combo Marina was almost perfect: bass cerviche was amazing and so was the tuna, the seafood rice and fried calamari were a bit overcooked. Conclusion is although the food was good, it was a bit too pricey to return...especially for Linden area. Parking was only 50 cent / hour.“
“I couldn’t believe when I saw it about this restaurant selling my typical food from my town in Perú!!! I have been looking for so long a restaurant that will sell my jungle dishes from my town in Perú.If you haven’t tried authentic jungle food you got to try this place, is small place has few seating inside but food is delicious!!! I got Juanes, tacacho mixed with bits of fried pork skin, humitas saladas, arroz chaufa and papa a la huancaina (the last two dishes are typical Peruvian dishes)Also they have aguaje ice creams, cocona drinks and uvachados (exotic drink) delicious!!I’m definitely coming back to eat more of my favorite dishes!!!!“
“Coming from a music artist, this restaurant is truly my favorite restaurant. Good place to sit, eat, and think. The food and service is amazing. Affordable prices, very good. Really good Peruvian Restaurant in my opinion. 10/10 restaurant, no doubt about it.“
“If you want authentic Peruvian food look no further, it’s right here in Clark. The portions of the dishes are more than generous. But the flavor is what keeps you coming back over and over again. I ordered the bistec de pobre and it was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend this place.“
“This place has some of the best chaufa in the area and other menu items are equally as good. Its a small restaurant so if you are a larger group it would probably be best to get takeout (we always do). If you're looking for peruvian-chinese fusion you will NOT be disappointed.“
“I walked in on a whim and was greeted with open arms and an education into what Peruvian food is traditionally and how fantastic it is. There were so many possible options that I couldn't decide. I ended up with the ceviche combo plate, and wow! I will definitely be back next time I'm in town.“
“I have never physically been here. I always order through DoorDash. Food is delicious! Customer service over the phone is one of the bests I have received in Jersey city/Union city and I work in restaurant as well. If they ran out of something they offered me other varieties. (I majority of the time order late, close to closing)Griselda is the sweetest! I had an issue with my order and she went above and beyond to make it happen for me. Now I want to physically go and enjoy their in person service! You guys rock!“
“I had a creamy Shrimp Soup that was loaded with veggies it was delicious. The service was good and they have lunch specials. I have to go back and try one cause everything coming out of the kitchen looked AMAZING!!!! Get up and go get you some“
“Yesterday we went to eat with my family, we were 7 people and the food was delicious..... Each dish took us back to our country and the prices were good, the best thing was the attention of the girl from Bolivia was excellent!!!! We hope to return and always recommend it to our compatriots ❤️??“
“This beautiful small cozy Peruvian restaurant has Real Authentic Peruvian dishes that you cannot replicate anywhere else. The owners were super cordial and kind. Excellent conversation starters while respecting your space while eating. The food was phenomenal and the portions are super reasonable and enough to fill even 2 people. Will be back again for sure, thank you Mrs. Rosita ?✨“
“Best rotisserie chicken I every had. I you like Chinese fried rice like me, this is the best place to get the best of both worlds. Seating is limited and parking is very hard to come by. My other issue is they only accept cash so you getting bring some. Other than that, I love going here even if it far from me and parking is hard.“
“Wowwww I was surprised by the taste and size of the dishes here at this place. It is a bakery where it serves breakfast but also lunches and main dishes of Peruvian cuisine. They have dishes from 12 or 15 dollars onwards and in the bakery you can eat a sandwich for 8 dollars. Their menu is well stocked although physical space is limited and you have to find parking but I think these are normal things for a small place. But its flavor and service are worth it to visit it.“
“I just went to check out the atmosphere inside. And it was very impressive what they did to the place. They really take care of the people that go there. I didn't stay for the late night activities that really start booming around 10 pm. But living close by I hear the music pumping and hear the people having a great time.“
“This was my first Peruvian Chinese experience, and honestly, I'm not sure if I can ever go back to normal Chinese food. These guys are just operating on a totally different level, and even though it's far away from me, I can't wait to get back there. The Peruvian Lomain is on a different level. The cuts of meat are so generous and tender. And the portions are very large. But the thing that blew me away now than anything was the Wonton Soup, easily and by far the best Wonton Soup I have ever had. The cuts of Pork are massive, and the stewed Cabbage adds depth to the dish, I also like that the Wontons are so meaty and tasty. If you have never tried Peruvian Chinese food, then you absolutely have to come here, You just have to try it.“
“(Translated by Google) The food is very good, the attention takes time, the food arrives and then the cutlery, plastic cups. They forget the drink. Of course, they do not forget to charge themselves and include the tip in the total.(Original)La comida muy buena, la atención tarda, llega la comida y los cubiertos luego, vasos plásticos. Olvidan la bebida. Eso sí no olvidan cobrarse he incluir la propina en el total.“
“Had the opportunity to return to this treasure in the heights - this time I got the invigorating soup called caldo de gallina. This is not your run of the mill chicken soup. This is a meal and made me feel like a million bucks and like I could shovel snow the rest of the afternoon. I was contentedly full the rest of the day.“
“Beef chaufa was fantastic with green sauce. Wife said her soup was 7/10. Yucca fries and huancaina tasted odd to me so I didn't indulge after ordering. Service not great (perhaps understaffed?), and dining area was ridiculously cold during winter, not comfortable. Would eat here again but bring more layers to wear. Parking very challenging.“
