Good was overpriced and underserved. I used to purchase double the portion of tallarín verde for the same price. They changed the noodle and the servings. They don’t serve bread anymore and not only that the meat is sliced thinly now. The papa a la huancaina looked like a baby potato compared to what they used to offer and I paid more this time! Not only that the refresco they gave me half the portion for the same price as well. Never again don’t waste your time.

Came here last minute before closing and the lady working by herself greeted us with excellent service. She served us lomo saltado & it was delicious, it came in a large portion for a very low price. Definitely coming back great food and great service !

We ordered lomo Saltado and it was quite expensive compared to other places. Regardless, the quality of the food was what we had a problem with. Also, the place is cash only so beware. I would recommend going somewhere else.

Was hoping to discover a hole in the wall for good Peruvian chicken. Sadly when they opened their chickens were not ready. Starting disappointed I tried to stay pumped and ordered the lomo Saltado and fried rice instead. Both were good - nothing exceptional. Service was good- they served us fresh juices which were sweet but refreshing. A little turned off by hearing a microwave during meal prep and the cost. Not sure if I'll come back to try what I originally came for. Cash only. Minimal English. Small parking lot in strip mall.

This is a general review of Las Llamas (which means flames not the animal that looks like an Alpaca) as I have been here many times. It would be wrong to judge the food based on the neighborhood or the locale. The food is incredible. If you like Lomo Saltado ask them to make it juicy or they'll drain it to make it look more presentable. The tallerin Verde is creamy and delicious and the meat they add is very flavorful. The chicken chicharones will surprise you. The soups are great. I don't remember their names.I judge Peruvian restaurants by their Aji chili sauce and their Papa a la Huancaina. The aji is a little more hot than it needs to be but really good. The sauce on the Papas a la Huancaina leaves you craving for more.You'll be tempted to order to go but it all tastes one level higher if you eat it right away. Wish I lived closer to this restaurant.

I normally don't venture out of the typical Mexican or Italian food. Lol. This is the second time I've been here, the food is delicious, and the owner lady is very kind. The place is clean, and parking can be a little bit of a challenge. Cash only!!! definitely coming back more often. The green sauce is fire, spicy goodness.

Wonderful service,green sauce was bomb, was treated with kindness. Papa Huancaina was awesome food was awesome, totally coming again. Can be a bit expensive, but peruvian food just is everywhere you go.

Good, authentic food in a home-like environment. The tallarín verde is amazingly seasoned and their grilled chicken has a nice smokey flavor to it. I love how sometimes they're serving the aji in little cups in the center of the restaurant. The service is cordial and quick. I wish there were other options for payment besides cash, but it's definitely worth it.

This place was great. Never had Peruvian food before but this hit the spot. 1/4 roast chicken, rice, fries, bread with a very spicy green sauce and a coke for only a couple. Everything was cooked perfectly. Chicken had crispy skin and perfectly juicy inside. Fries were delicious.
