Well i was kind of disappointed, i ordered the Chicharron de Pollo and it was maybe 2 pieces of chicken for 15$. Cut up into small piece, it was good tasting just the portion was WEEK at best, a few full pieces of chicken was what i expected from the photos on the site. I also ordered Arroz Chaufa de Pollo, it was good, its hard to mess up fried rice. In addition i ordered Lomo Saltado, it was ok, not as flavorful as i remember it being. I been eating here for over a decade. It changed names a while back if i remember correctly Overall i was disappointed for $60 for the 3 plates. I checked online for the amount it would be $59.27 for the 3 plates, when i tried to call in the order i was quoted 64, i asked why the difference as it should have been cheeper as i had an addition Convenience Fee: $2.49. So i ordered it online. I wanted to pay cash but ened up getting cash back from the CC purchase. The waitress who gave me my order did it with a big smile, That was the best part of the meal.
First visit. Waited to be seated and stood at counter about 5 minutes with no acknowledgement, eye contact or even hello, be right with you. Even customer there for pick up and felt invisible. Many empty tables so not very buay. Very personable waitress but orders for 6 of us served with 15 - 20 minutes between each item!! 3 of us ordered the sautéed shrimp in garlic butter with rice, took 2 times asking when would we get it(over 40 minutes waiting) and then received FRIED shrimp and told that was what Peruvian sautéed is. REALLY!!! Staff offered to take back but did not want to wait another 30-40 minutes. 3 of us got the wrong order. No one wanted to be accountable. No discount or apology. Needless to say, do not recommend and will not be going back. Nothing special. Photos below of menu and guess chef needs education on meaning of sautéed. Very disappointing
My daughter's swim schedule prevents us from doing international trips so I try to introduce her to international cuisine as much as I can. They use fire to cook their lomo saltado which my daughter ordered. I had the gambas al ijo. Yummy! Definitely a place to return anytime we are at La Mirada.
My coworker was craving Peruvian food and she said she saw this spot every time we drove by, so we checked it out. Probably one of the best Peruvian dishes I’ve ever had. I had their pescado sudado and popcorn chicken. The fish was phenomenal, especially the sauce it comes with. The starter bread is great with the butter. Their full plate of calamari, fried fish were excellent. Great flavor and it was a delicious dish. The popcorn chicken aka chicharron chicken was also delicious and I used the sauce from the fish to make it even more delectable. The plantains were also very delicious too. Overall it was a solid lunch experience with excellent customer service. I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items.
I Come here for the lunch specials and the waitress is always so sweet and attentive. She knows my order but always confirms. Thank you!Love this place great service, food and music highly recommend for good Peruvian cuisine
