This restaurant is awesome, I stopped there after an appointment. Our server Ale was friendly and explained the different lunch specials to us as well as the ingredients because we have some dietary restrictions. I am a big fan of ceviche and I love that you can get a smaller portion of ceviche as an appetizer and a larger entree with lunch. If you haven't tried the purple corn drink it's called chicha Morada. I highly recommend it! Service was fast and there was no wait, it was peaceful at that time of day with plenty of booths available. I also had the Papas a la huancaina, I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't spicy. I do not handle spice well and most Peruvian restaurants make the ceviche and the Papas heavily spicy. I thoroughly enjoyed lunch and I will return again soon for dinner.

We went here with family and friends for lunch today. It was 6 of us in our party & the restaurant was only 1/4 full; about 15 people. The waitress seemed nice at first but after about a minute, she was just passive and uncaring. She was just going through the motions "What do you want to drink? What do you want for appetizers?" No enthusiasm. No suggestions. We were happy to be there; a big party; and would've gave a great big tip. I didn't think much of it at first and I was hungry so I went ahead and ordered the Papa a la huancaína appetizer. Then...as we're waiting.. here comes our discovery~ On the way to the bathroom i discovered (on the front counter) a small 10x7 plastic table stand-up sign that said "SPECIALS"... I brought it to our table to show my family & friends. We were in shock that **the waitress only gave us the full price menu & did not even mention any lunch specials (that are nearly half the price of the full price menu!** The specials menu has great deals at about $12 you get a full meal with appetizer & salad! We felt like the waitress didn't want to tell us about the specials so she could get a bigger tip (given a bigger total on our 6 person check!) It was shady (& deceiving) to say the least. After eating, the food was good.. nothing super amazing but good. Throughout the time we were there, the waitress was missing..I had to get up 3 times to get another waitress' attention. She never refilled our empty drink glasses.. never checked up on us.. never even asked if we wanted dessert. So here's the gist~ The restaurant ambiance is nice. Great fun Peruvian décor (pictures & signs) The food is OK. The waitress was horrible & shady. Non-attentive uncaring..& she still got a "gratuity included" tip on the bill. I WILL NOT BE BACK & DO NOT RECOMMEND.. There's so many amazing good Peruvian restaurants with great customer service & great food..So why settle for bad service.

El Fogon was really enjoyable. Better than most Peruvian restaurants in the area for certain. Absolutely the best Pisco Sour I have ever tasted, no lie, and i could've eaten a ton of the concha that was put out on the table. For anyone that has never had concha, it's basically dry roasted large kernel corn, and it's freaking amazing.As far as entrees, we stuck with traditional dishes and ordered Jalea and Lomo Saltado. Both meals were prepared perfectly. Fresh, crispy seafood, tender beef cooked to medium, served with delicious sauces.Enjoyable. Will return for sure as it is close to home.Only thing missing was Pulpo tiradito...

I tried the ceviche and my colleagues tried the chicken/beef with rice dishes. Everyone was pleased with their meals. Service was great for such a large party. The ceviche was delicious, very flavorful.

Came here for a work lunch and had a good time. Service was good, we had a large group and they kept track of all our meals and it all came out great.

We had stopped going to this place for some time as the quality had been going down, mostly salty in seasoning. We decided to give it a try once again this week, what a mistake. We had the fish and shrimp plate, my son has been throwing up since that meal, the rest of us not so great either. Very disappointing to say the least. Customer service was great, waitress was very attentive and with an excellent disposition to make it a good dinner experience. This is the only reason for the 1 star. I would definitely not recommend going here.
