El Gordo Restaurant is a Peruvian eatery that offers a variety of dishes. Standout options include the lomo saltado and Tacu Tacu with bistec, which are highly recommended. The pollo a la brasa, a roasted chicken dish, is available with different sides, although substitutions may be limited. The green sauce is a popular condiment, but its flavor varies depending on personal preference. The food is often described as fresh and delicious, made to perfection. While the place is small and may feel more like a takeaway restaurant, the staff is friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable. However, parking can be a big drawback, as customers have reported difficulties, needing to double park to pick up their orders. The restaurant's location might be more convenient for those within walking distance.
