It's the best Peruvian food I've had in my life! The rotisserie chicken was so tender and juicy, the noodle and seafood soup was delicious!! I strongly recommend to try their food if you are in town.

My mom took me to this place for the first time to this place and I really love their food. They are amazing, and their food feels like you are in Peru. Also, Jesus was great too. Great service. 🙂 I really recommend this place in Union City, Nj.

Highly recommend! Lena Y Carbon is one of my top 3 fav Peruvian restaurants. What makes this location even better is how clean and nicely decorated it is. Their ceviche is one of my go to appetizers, and the seafood or beef saltado is a must try. Would visit this restaurant every weekend!
