I ordered a dish called “Yuca a la Huancaina,” but I was served “Papa a la Huancaina.” As I’m fluent in Spanish, I am certain I pronounced “Yuca” correctly. However, the main issue wasn’t the mistake with the dish but the way the waiter handled the situation. He was extremely arrogant, insisting that I had ordered “Papa” instead of “Yuca.” To avoid creating an uncomfortable situation, as I was with other people at the table, I accepted the dish. However, the lack of manners was evident, and everyone at the table noticed how uncomfortable I was.

Additionally, the menu is poorly designed, with several basic spelling errors and a lack of detailed information about the dishes. While the food itself isn’t bad, the overall experience was very unpleasant. I will definitely not return to this restaurant and do not recommend it.

I went out after work for a couple of drinks after work. I can't give stars about the food because I didn't eat. Parking lot is deceitful and on left side if you're on Broad Street. I'll go back when my colleagues do.

Had a reservation tonight, Christmas Eve for 6:30 for 7 adults and a baby. At around 5:10 we received a message that our reservation were cancelled, because they closed at 5:00.my daughter called back the guy hung up on her. We made these reservation about 3 weeks ago!

Arrived at 7:00pm, it is now 8:35pm and our party partly received their order and just had our waiter asked us what's missing. Not cool, highly doubt I would recommend this place and return.

Really loved the food
Very tasty.
Their TVs are playing raggae tone or pop music, which can be very loud.

Been to a number of Peruvian restaurants in the area. Thought we’d try Sharks in Central Falls. Huge dinning room. Very bright. Kind of noisy I assume was because of the huge open space.
The ceviche was the highlight of the meal.
My wife had what was described as paella but was mostly seasoned rice with a huge steamed clam and some shrimp and other seafood mixed in. Mostly rice. It was served lukewarm, wasn’t hot at all. By the time the waiter came by to check on me meal it was too late to really complain. I had the fried whole Peruvian Sea Bass. Way over cooked. Dry and also lukewarm. Matter of fact the whole meal was lukewarm warm.
Asked for the dessert menu. No menu, but the dessert list was Flan or carrot cake. Carrot cake at a Peruvian restaurant ? No Tres Leche. The flan had chocolate syrup on the plate as a garnish. I have never seen chocolate syrup on a flan.
Overall we were rather disappointed. For two people: 2 drinks. 1 beer, 1 appetizer, 2 entrees and the flan the bill came to $141.00. Not including the tip.
Been there. Done that. Don’t think we’ll be back anytime soon.
Recommend to anyone? I don’t think so.

Charming dining room and delicious Peruvian cuisine. Great service. Downside was the use of an extremely loud blender nearby at the bar. Music 🎶 was really nice, but seemed like the manager went home and one of the waiters turned up the music way too loud (with three tables of customers).
Sweet plantains were delicious. Alejandra was a delightful server. Shrimp ceviche was very good as was the Marisco seafood ceviche. Tres Leches cake was delicious as well. Mango juice mocktail was really good. The location desperately needs a big sign on Broad Street that says “Peruvian food.” It’s sort of a hidden gem.

Only giving one start so I can do my review here it is:

I had a Disappointing Experience at Shark Restaurant which I recently visited in Central Falls, and unfortunately, the experience was far from pleasant. Despite the restaurant being nearly empty, it took forever for the food to arrive at our table, and when it finally did, everything was cold.

We ordered the parrillada (imagínate una parrillada fría nasty) which was supposed to include ribeye steak, but we only got a tiny piece of stake. The rest of the dish was mostly chicken and grilled mondongo, which was not appealing at all. To make things worse, many of the food/ingredients we ordered weren’t even available such as wings and lemon (really lemon) but they were out of both.

Overall, the lack of ingredients, poor food quality, and slow service made for a very disappointing experience. PLUS I believe the food is overpriced at this place, and looking some of the reviews they tried to charge 35% of tips. I did not look at the receipt bcs I didn’t pay unfortunately. However now I know why the bill was so high. If you still want to try go ahead but pay attn to the bill and charges. I wouldn’t recommend this place based on my visit.

I had a very unpleasant moment today, Sunday 10-20-24, it turns out we were at an event dedicated to the month of the fight against cancer, and when we finished my friend and I went down to the restaurant to have a cappuccino, and we finished and as is correct we proceeded to pay, we went to the back to show my friend the good atmosphere in the back, and a waiter behind asked us if we had paid for the coffee ☕️, and we called their attention for doubting our reputation, and He entered the restaurant and then, going down the steps, another employee came out to ask the same thing, and we felt very bad, and we went in to show him the receipt for the service, quite expensive by the way, 14 dollars for 2 cappuccinos, and even so we paid it as good citizen, that is to say that they have to take great caution in terms of customer treatment!!!!!!!!!

The seafood was delicious, especially the squid and octopus, the meat chaufa was also very delicious but what I really recommend is the poor steak and the mango juice, also what I like most about the atmosphere of the place It is the live music that plays at various times of the day, they provide a relaxing experience and they have plenty of talent

Wheelchair accessibility: She doesn't use a wheelchair but I can tell from a friend that wheelchair access is very efficient and good for those who need it.
