Wife was in the mood for some Peruvian food and decided to give this local spot a try. Although we drive by all the time today was our first time. They've been open for 39 years and really we had to kick ourself afterwards for not coming sooner. The restaurant is right on Coral Way. There is street parking but also they have a parking lot in the back. The inside is very cozy. They have TVs playing local games but without the sound so as to not interfere with your conversation. It was a Tuesday night and they had several tables going when we came in which was a good sign. We were greeted immediately upon entering. They have a nice selection of wine but we opted for a glass of wine and a Peruvian beer, called Cusqueña, which paired perfect with my meal. For starters we went with what we consider part of the staples of Peruvian cuisine, Ceviche Mixto and Papa a la Huancaina. Both were amazing. The ceviche was perfectly balanced. It had just the right amount of acidity without overpowering the fish. We asked for the spice to be on the side but when added it gives that perfect kick. The Papa a la Huancaina, I mean I would eat sheet rock if it had that sauce on it. It's so creamy and just the right amount of tang. We immediately said no to taking of our the plates just so we could soak up the remaining sauce with our bread. For entrees, we went with Jalea and the Pollo Saltado. The Jalea, which is really an appetizer meant for sharing except I wasn't sharing, was fried just right. It had a heaping amount of calamari, fish, shrimp and mussels along with Yuca fries. Yes everything is fried but it was fried just right. It wasn't oily or over done and the portion was insane. My wife enjoyed her Pollo Saltado, which is a variation of the traditional Lomo Saltado. It looked and tasted great. The only suggestion would be to have more sauce but otherwise it was on point. For dessert we tried both the Dulce de Lucuma and Bavarois. You can't go wrong with either but the Bavarois surprised me with how light and fluffy it was. It was like an airy merengue with peach bits and a sweet cream sauce. It was heavenly. But truly what made our experience even better was the service. Renzo provided stellar service from beginning to end. Not only was he great at answering all our questions and accommodating for all our special requests but was on point with timing on waiting till we were done with apps before firing our dishes. It dawned on me that although its great to visit hot and new places it shouldnt be at the expense of forgetting those that have been around and have figured out what it takes. Like I said in the beginning, they've been around for 39 years. There is a reason why, because they focus on the foundations of a good restaurant Food and Service. Definitely put them on your list of must try for great Peruvian food.

Good products and a well -prepared and tasty kitchen.A smiling waiter.The only fault is the slightly excessive price of the wines.No bottle under $39.

This is by far the BEST Peruvian restaurant in Miami! I have traveled to Peru 6 times and love their cuisine. When I discovered FAROLITO in Miami I felt like I had returned to Peru.The owner, Ricardo, is an great Host. He cooks, he serves, he makes sure you are satisfied with your food and has an excellent knowledge of good wines. His wine selection is one of the best in the area.But the food is by far the best Peruvian cuisine I have tasted in South Florida.A must visit!!
What a delightful lunch. Quaint restaurant with top notch food.Parking: I paid parking on Coral Way. They do have parking in the back but it is tricky to get there, if you call they will explain, but it's worth the effort!
