Al Carbón is a popular restaurant known for its excellent Peruvian food and attentive service. Located on 5th Street, the new spot offers more space for diners. The restaurant's standout dish is the roasted chicken, praised for being tender and flavorful. Guests enjoy the variety of sauces, particularly the green jalapeño cilantro spicy sauce and the cilantro sauce, both of which enhance the meal.
The menu also features delicious ribs, yucca fries, and elotes, making it a great choice for casual dining. The horchata, available in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions, is a favorite among families, especially when paired with churros for dessert. Many reviewers appreciate the friendly team, noting their helpfulness and the ability to serve oneself sauces. While some feel the new location has lost a bit of its local charm, the overall experience remains enjoyable, making Al Carbón a great destination for those craving comforting Peruvian cuisine.
