MattJuly 10, 2017The Papas Rellena and Empandas we had were so delicious! The Pechuga a la parrilla (Grilled Chicken) was covered in the most delicious spices and tasted so delicious as well. I'll definitely be back.
Dana TedescoJune 21, 2014BEST tamal I ever had in my life. It had peanuts in it!!! Creamy Garlic Ajo Shrimp was my choice & shared Lomo Saltado (though the french fries are frozen out of a bag). Caramel Cookie for dessert!!!
Redeye ChicagoAugust 3, 2014Chili-spiced ceviche and steaks cooked a la parrilla are highlights at the Peruvian BYOB. For a switch from the usual beer or wine, bring a bottle of vodka to spike a pitcher of passion fruit juice. Read more
Vanessa CamposDecember 13, 2012The food was great! No corking fee which was awesome so BYOB! The green salsa worth the bread is so good and the flan was amazing. This place was a pleasant surprise.
Historical fact - this location was a speakeasy during the prohibition era. See if you can find the trap door in the stalls of the men's bathroom!
StephenAugust 22, 2017BYOB with no corking fee! Great $25 for 2 dinner special on Mondays - ask your server about it. The arroz con pollo is phenomenal.
They raised the price of lunch. Still under $10 with tax and tip for lunch and sharing a bread basket. It's a good deal for a surprisingly tasty basic plate of fish, chicken, or steak.
Mark HOctober 10, 2011Went with a Peruvian friend who deems the place to be quite authentic. The lomo saltado was ok. So was the arroz con pollo n antichurros.Washed it down with the nice n sweet chicha:) Pretty pricey tho
Steven MinorDecember 21, 2013Everything's great. .. the yucca a la huancaina is a must and A really nice surprise!
Great authentic Peruvian food. Had papa rellena and shrimp in walnut sauce!!! Super delicious!!! Will be coming back!!
Javier AldayJanuary 25, 2011Visit Machu Picchu Restaurant Mondays and Tuesdays and receive a half price appetizers with the purchase of 2 the entrees
Fred SimmonsNovember 15, 2010The big kernel corn with the yellow sauce and chunks of queso = great. Order it.
marla skikoMarch 20, 2010If you forget to BYOB there's a liquor store 2 blocks away with inexpensive, good red wine options
Try the Lomo Fino al Pacifico, steak with seafood, simply amazing.
Charlie FerreiraMarch 7, 2010Don't let them sit you in the 2 high back tables. No lights to read the menu.
