Peruvian Restaurants in Alexandria, VA

“Delicious beef stew soup with rice. Pure comfort food for those chilly days!“

“Kevin went above and beyond. This is the juiciest most delicious chicken sandwich I’ve ever had. Expectations are fully exceeded!!!! THANK YOU KEVIN!!!!!!! Everyone pull off Rt1 and treat your taste buds to a power punch!!!!!!!“

“Good place to eat, carne asada is so delicious 😋“

“Outstanding place, which we plan on frequenting. Huge line of folks (always a good sign), though the team kept up well with the lunch crunch. Sparklingly clean throughout the building. Warm, attentive staff. Most importantly, flawless food. We got a whole chicken with four sides, each of which were spot-on. Even my kids who don't like rice and beans were impressed with that side. I don't typically eat chicken skin, but couldn't help munching on some of that marinated, crunchy goodness. We've eaten in many Peruvian chicken joints, and this ranks among the best.“

“Chicharron de pescado and ceviche are my favorite ones of this restaurant, horchata is pretty good. Food in general is pretty good. The servers are nice, but the structure needs a tlc, is very well located, has some parking, in rush hours is usually hard to find a spot.“

“Delicioso, pedi Parihuela“

“Found this place by accident. Everyone is super chill and feel like place have not gotten enough exposure.Food was amazing, every dish was amazing. There seafood is top notch.Im very picky with peruvian food so I would highly recommend this place if you like good peruvian.“

“My car battery died so I stopped by after getting that fixed next door at K&B Auto (Tom is great btw).

The Lomo Saltado was by far the best thing I’ve eaten in months. I’m sitting there enraptured and the manager happens to walk by to check on me; probably due to the stupefied look on my face. He was super nice and I told him how much I loved the food. The guy up front also introduced me to drink Maranon and taught me about how it comes from the cashew apple (apparently cashews aren’t nuts too lol). I walked out to my car specifically to grab a $5 tip.

Sure no one wants a dead battery but given that it lead me to this experience, I can’t even be upset about it!“

“The lady at the cashier today was so helpful and kind, the chicken here was super fresh and in my opinion some of the best I’ve had in the Mount Vernon area. Even better than Su Pollo! Whole chicken with 2 sides and a salad came to about $30. I only wanted dark meat for the whole chicken and the cashier made it happen and I’m grateful for that

The yucca was super fresh and wasn’t the frozen stuff that other places have. Yucca is a must try here!“

“I had the July Special, it was good! The price was a little high in my opinion since half of my plate was broccoli and rice (not expensive ingredients).
The place has sitting areas and it’s located at a plaza so there is free parking“

“Wide variety of Central American foods on the menu. Not just Peruvian chicken. Love that they serve chicken and beef soups. They are so pretty - a great alternative to Vietnamese pho - and a popular menu item. Passion fruit drink was yummy and not too sweet. Will try cashew fruit drink next (marañon).
