So I didn't actually eat at this restaurant but my sister-in-law is Peruvian so when I saw that this was a Peruvian restaurant I expected to go inside and see a Peruvian food menu. I expected to see aji de gallina or some ceviche, etcetera... but it is more like a Latin fusion / Mexican taco food place. A lot of fried options. Definitely check out their menu before you go if you're expecting to get Peruvian cuisine you might be disappointed.
The overall atmosphere...
Pretty darn good latin cuisine. Being raised in the South Bronx it reminds me of the Puerto Rican ran shops that offered chicharrones and plantains. Very nostalgic. There's a small language barrier but luckily the menu has pictures and I can honestly say the food looks just like the pictures. You don't have to dress up and the environment isn't exquisite but if you came for the food you got the right place.
My wife and I wanted to try a place that was different from our norm so I suggested we try Pollo Loko. They didn’t disappoint.The food was very flavorful, I wish they had a variety of sauces for their meats. However, the chicken & ribs were really good. I really enjoyed the salad, the dressing is more of a vinegar base which I like. The beans and rice are excellent! I’d definitely recommend and will be a returning customer.
