“Authentic Peruvian dishes flavored with authentic ingredients. Sangicheria is doing it right!From first through final moments in this restaurant, it was a joy! Music and vibes, cleanliness, seating options, and hospitality were excellent! Even the temperature was notably enjoyable - I don't think I've ever thought that about a restaurant ?Most importantly, the food was DELICIOUS! All the meats I've tried so far have been well seasoned, and the cooks clearly took their time - no shortcuts with deli meats.The menu is tight and clean: A few handfuls of options, but each item is done really well. I love that they expand their menu on the weekends with more "full plate entrée" dishes and specials - always classic Peruvian dishes.I'm excited to return to try more of their menu, but of the few times I've been here, so far, so great!A lot of seating despite being a smaller restaurant, yet it doesn't feel cramped. The owner and team are always helpful and warmly available, without being overbearing. So wonderfully friendly - feels like you're really in Perú ???In their dessert case I've seen them (neatly) stocked with causa, budin, flan, Inka Kola, Kola Inglesa, even emoliente and chicha morada!From my limited experience and from what my friends who visit Sangucheria often, their quality consistency is a true highlight. That alone is a solid reason to come here!Parking: Large lot. Even though it's shared with all businesses in the plaza, I've so far never struggled to find parking.Kid-friendliness: They have at least one high chair, and the employees have been very kind and friendly to the kiddos (my own and others'). My toddler loved their food, and I was happy it's made with real ingredients! The restaurant is very clean, which to me is a huge plus in terms of kid-friendliness. ?“
“Wow! This restaurant has the best food! I have enjoyed with my family many Peruvian restaurants , but Eli the chef has a traditional way of cooking, I can say the original recipes not fusion, Lomo saltado (tender and juicy meat)Ají de gallina and Seco de carne was perfect.“
“Wish I had the picture to show how generous they were with their portions & sauces but it was way too good to even think about pictures when I ate it. I’m Peruvian and ever since I moved to San Diego I’ve been on the search for a good Peruvian restaurant and I can finally say I found it. I haven’t felt comfortable showing my friends Peruvian food here in San Diego as I couldn’t find a place but this place has changed that for me. It’s a must try for sure. The pollo was absolutely delicious and their lomo was finger licking good. Excited to try their other places !“
“We ordered a sampling of stuff off the menu and it was all great. The staff are super friendly and helpful in making recommendations. The "Tallarin Saltado De Res" was a big hit for all of us.Vegetarian options: Four dishes and a couple appetizers are vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: They have good gluten-free and vegetarian options.“
“The food was really good. However, the restaurant is very short staffed. There were two waiters for the entire restaurant which was full. The same waiters were also making drinks, helping with to go orders, and seating people. In essence, it seemed like they were doing everything besides kitchen duties. It was Saturday in the evening. They need to actively look into hiring additional staff. At least 2 more waiters per shift and a hostess. I saw one of the waiters hit his leg on a bench because he was seriously trying to work as fast as humanly possible. I would go back because the food was bomb, but perhaps at opening time or early afternoon on a weekday when perhaps they are not as busy!“
