Peruvian Restaurants near Madison, WI

“We recently had the pleasure of dining at AmarPeru today, marking my first experience with Peruvian cuisine, and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance struck us as both elegant and inviting. The decor was sophisticated, setting the perfect tone for a delightful meal. Upon our arrival, the executive chef greeted us with a warm smile, which immediately made us feel welcomed. With our excitement, we dove into the menu and decided to sample a variety of dishes: lomo saltado, paella, ceviche mixto, truffle yuca fries, and anticucho. Each dish was a masterpiece, showcasing just the right balance of flavors. We savored every bite, feeling completely satisfied yet still we left a room for dessert. We chose to indulge in alfajores, arroz con leche, and pisco tres leches. She even has us try the passion fruit juice and one of their specialty dessert. Desserts were the perfect ending to our meal, the ideal balance of sweetness and texture that we wanted. Overall, our experience at AmarPeru was fantastic! We left feeling full and happy, already planning our return to explore more of their culinary offerings. It was a wonderful opportunity to immerse ourselves in a different culture's cuisine, and I can't wait to go back! Highly recommended for anyone looking to try something new and delicious. Thank you to the chef and the entire team for crafting such a delicious meal. 🫶“

“Great chicken and love the chicha morada“

“They are super nice and the aji de gallina is delicious!!! 10/10 would recommend.“

“Ate at both the Downtown and the Middleton locations within the same week. Delicious food! The chicken was moist and the Chaufa rice was super delicious and filling! My wife loves getting the Purple Corn drink too. With such a huge menu, I think I’ll be trying something new next time for awhile!“

“Surprising authentic dishes, coming from a Peruvian American familiar with Peruvian cuisine coast to coast.
First tip would be to train servers in pushing easily digestible meals to first timers. If you’ve never eaten Peruvian I’d start the convo with opening your mind and then your stomach to new but flavorful foods. Pictures could help too!
Lomo was a little sweet but tasted home cooked which I enjoyed. Causa acechivada was delicious. Chaufa cecina was great. Pisco sours on point. Homemade chicha was so good, I’m used to the gross packet tasting kind! Alfajores had real manjar blanco OMG! I hope this place gets more business because they’re serving real authentic quality cuisine! Servers were awesome but not well versed in the dishes, get the girls to eat a different dish and ask about the foods pre shift. Portions are enough for dinner and lunch the next day Peruvian style :) As Peruvian cuisine becomes more renowned the pricing made my pockets and tummy happy ;)
Gracias ☺️“
