“This restaurant deserves 10 stars! From the moment you walk in, the staff at very friendly and accommodating. They go out of their way to make sure that your experience is comfortable and enjoyable. I appreciate their hospitality and the food is so fresh and delicious. Make sure to order a pisco sour! The arroz chaufa de vegetales is the best vegetable fried rice I’ve ever had, the camarones al ajillo are served in such a well seasoned, creamy garlic sauce, the ceviche mixto is super refreshing, and their lomo saltado beef is perfectly cooked. Plus, the live music was such a nice touch to the overall atmosphere. My family and I will be coming back for more!“
“When I found out this family business is co-owned by a fellow Queens College Alum, I had to come!!! It's so inviting and the hostess (sister) was more than accommodating. We were seated quickly and we were able to see the menu both print and via QR Code. We (my husband and I) loved the drink we had as well as the Aji Galina and Arroz Chaufa con Pollo. Extra sauces and a small corn based appetizer was given right away as well. I also appreciated the clean bathroom, which has a urinal and normal toilet, also ADA/wheelchair friendly. The music was excellent too. The fact that this is also family friendly is the ultimate selling point. There's something on the menu for everyone. I will definitely come back with my in laws! This is the freshest, best Peruvian in NYS!!! I WISH YOU ALL THE SUCCESS AND DECADES IN BUSINESS!“
“Came here to eat with the family and we had an awesome experience. The service was amazing! I didn’t get her name but our server was very attentive and hilarious. We all ordered a variety of food like arroz chaufa, salchipapa, jalea mixto and we were 100% satisfied. Definitely worth going back to !“
“We visited Pio Pio at Glen Cove with a large group not too long ago.The whole group enjoyed the various dishes they selected. The space is open and had a bar towards the back. The establishment also offers valet parking.I wouldn't mind visiting more often if it wasn't so far north. All in all, I would visit again when close to the north shore.“
“Wow, I enjoyed this menu. Great Latin dishes like classic carne asada, ceviche, empanadas, cheese bread, arroz con camarones, lots of seafood, yummy yucca fries, a variety of home made fish stews and soups. Daily lunch specials make this place a great value. Table service or bar seating available. Every server was friendly and hospitable. Totally will return, especially for the lomo saltado de carne y pollo. And the tres leches dessert!“
“Staff is very friendly and efficient, rice and beans / plantains are really good! The buffalo chicken empanadas are my favorite.Vegetarian options: Tons of vegan desserts, empanadas and salad!Parking: Small parking lot, street parking just past the street light“
“Food was excellent as well as service. Bother in law that who is a chef also agreed .The problem I have is they have a policy on weekends to add 18 percent tip to bill. I do not mind that but it not clear when I was given check .I saw a total for food and tax tip was not included. When in got my statement form AmEx I noticed the discrepancy. I then called manager and he said i in fact tipped twice as he then said something about a red flag that is on check that indicates a tip will be included . Very confusing so be careful when receive you check as waitress does not inform you either. I believe it has been noted in other reviewsParking: Lot is next to restaurant“
“Always the tastiest food and amazing service. We love going here and our kids love it even more than we do! Also, being that I had a crazy day, after dinner I forgot my purse when we left, and only realized when we got home that I didn’t have it. I called them and they told me they had it safely put away for me until I went back the next day to get it. Couldn’t ask for better service than that!“
“Ordered take out for a family night in. Called in a pretty big order for 6 peopleEverything was ready in a timely manner and packaged nicely for take out.The ceviche was to die for ! The arroz chaufa was the same delicious flavor I remember from my childhood.“
“Best Peruvian food in Long Island!! When craving peruvian food i don’t mind taking 45min ride just to get there, because is worth it! Its so hard to find the exact essence of peruvian cuisine and this restaurant knows how to do it. Meet this place back on 2020 and every time I go they exceed my expectations, polite, friendly and respectful. Food is the best!! Cabrito & anticuchos con rachi my favorite!!“
“Great service! We enjoyed our dinner. It was my first time having beef heart and it was quite delicious. The chicken -pollo a la brasa is always amazing and so well seasoned. The skirt steak was good but I felt the portion of the steak could've been a tad bigger. The taxi tacu rice was yummy! Overall it was a satisfying dinner. We had their ice cream and it was unique flavors...I would recommend that you try it.“
“The Portobello Saltado was excellent. So was the Margarita. The waiter was great. A few issues. The Portobello Saltado is on their online menu. It’s not on their restaurant menu. I was told sometimes they don’t have portobellos. Ordered the avocado salad. They don’t have avocados. Ordered two mojitos. Out of mint.Vegetarian options: Portobello Saltado was excellent.“
“It is a very small place with 3 tables to accommodate like 12 people. The food is excellent. A lot of people take out. The portions are very big. The lunch specials they charge $15, which includes a large, tasty soup, salad, potatoes with cream, rice, and meat. I had the fried chicken. Go, give it a go!Parking: It's the strip mall parking in Staples complex.“
“(Translated by Google) Very good service. The popusas are delicious and only $ 2 !!The client cervical is very good here. The manager who took good care of me.(Original)Muy buen servicio. Las popusas son ricas y solamente a $2!!El cervical al cliente es muy bueno aquí. El manager que me atendió muy bien.“
“The BEST rotisserie chicken in Elmont! Even my vegetarian family members rave about the smell alone in the car when we get takeout rotisserie chicken and say it's the only time they've considered eating meat again. It is well seasoned and though it's getting pricey, the chicken is consistently good. The place is small but clean and the staff aren't necessarily chatty but not rude. I always miss this chicken when away from Elmont. Haven't ventured into the rest of the menu, but the chicken with rice and beans is my go-to.“
“I cant say enough nice things about this place. First of all...they have GREAT burgers! They are fresh, grilled on fire and the brioche buns are delicious. Everything that I and my family have ordered from there has been absolutely GREAT! The place is spotless clean, the owners and staff are wonderful and the prices are fair. This is one of my favorite places in the area!!! Try it tonight!“
“I ate the food so fast I forgot to take a picture, food was excellent, waitress did not speak English but I know some spanglish so it worked out. Service was great, my wife and I both ordered from the grill, wife had salmon, i had the chicken, shrimp and sausage. I left a 20% tip. I will def be back.“
“I'm shocked this restaurant doesn't have more reviews! This is truly an authentic and underrated Peruvian spot on Long Island. This location was formerly known as The Inkan Restaurant & Pisco Bar, but it had closed some time in 2021. Latino Café & Bar replaced this location afterwards (different owners). They have Peruvian fare as well as some Latin American dishes. I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally decided to order lunch from here today. For lunch, I ordered the Lomo Saltado and a Chicken Empanada on DoorDash. The food was piping hot when it arrived and tasted so fresh! The steak was nice and tender. All of the food was seasoned very well. I also loved the spicy green sauce that came with my empanada. The food was very reasonably priced as well. I'll definitely be giving more dishes a try from this place. I highly suggest you do the same :) *Note* This restaurant makes delivery orders only on DoorDash and Uber Eats. They do not make orders on GrubHub! My order on GrubHub had unexpectedly been cancelled, but when I called the restaurant, woman on the phone told me they don't offer GrubHub.“
