I always go back because their Peruvian food is very good. Specially the pollo Ala brasa. One of the best in westchester!

Terrible customer service!! Do not waste your time!! I placed an order over the phone and they told me to come in an hour to pick it up. I waited around doing meaningless things for an hour. When I went to pick up they told me the order was still not ready. I only ordered a rotisserie chicken with rice and salad. I then waited for another 15 minutes and still no food!! No apology or update. It's like they only began to start order once I got there. And this is the second time this happens. The first time was with Uber pick up and they clicked that food was ready for pick up but yet I still waited 30 minutes after. I thought it was an Uber cliche, but I now see it's them. If you're not going to start food until we get there then say you don't take phone orders. Do not waste a whole hour of people's time!! Freakin disgusted with you guys!!! I ended up leaving with no food!!

they forgot about our order for father's day and we were the hosts of our small get together. Terrible service. They also didn't let us know if our answer or calls so we went and they told us our huge order was forgotten about

The quality of the food is bland and the service is horrible. They give you a good size portion. Quantity over quality. 1st and last time getting food from here.

Wow! El Miski was highly recommended to me by several people. I stopped by for takeout last night. So surprised.....reviews saying it was dirty and outdated....they must have been old reviews cause when I got in I was so pleased. Clean and shiny and very nice ladies to take your order. Got the Lomo Saltado. Absolutely delicious!!!! I keep looking at the menu thinking what to get next!!!

Best Peruvian food I have had in NY! The place is a whole in the wall with great staff and even greater food! I get the lomo saltado, salsa criolla, and a side of yuca every time!

Waisted 40 min of my life waiting for my food that at the end I had to leave without eating. The food is good the place is a mess and old.

Place is not all take, but the food is the best( Im Peruvian) Ive had in between trying places in White Plains, New Rochelle, and Port Chester.

This place is ok the only problem I have is the menu. Not enough to choose from. The place needs a renovation. the Chef is doing an excellent job with preparation.
This place is a hidden gem... and this is coming from a Peruvian. Their food is the closest thing to Peru's apart from NJ restaurants. The pollo a la brasa is delicious!! The staff could be more attentive and that's why im giving 4 stars. They've never been rude to me but I've heard them be rude to multiple people on the phone and in person. A little tip: bring a jacket !! The place doesn't have heat so it can get very cold in there. Anyways... every dish here is delicious!! De lo mejor!!

This place is an undiscovered treasure disguised as a barely open taker-out restaurant next to a gas station. They only do take-out and barely speak English, but their food speaks its own language. My wife got the friend fish over rice and I got the mixed seafood with fish and they were both delicious. El Miami rewards adventuresome diners.

This "WAS" a great Peruvian place some months back . I would look forward to stopping here as the portions and quality was the best bang for the buck around Westchester NY . I've been to almost every Peruvian restaurants in the area and was happy to find one sorta local to me . I found out that the owner has recently left and the quality and quantity shows . I ordered 3 times with 3 bad experiences which gave me the urge to give this review . I was in the resturant business for over 20 years so I understand certain situation that can occur . The new person in charge here is giving a lot less and quality is poor . The ceviche portion has shrunk along with it tasting very bitter having a ammonia smell which is a result of not being fresh . The next dish was a shrimp only ceviche and not having the shrimp they gave me a mixed one . I got home to the surprise of it and when I called them to let them know they gave me the wrong order they told me they ran out of shrimp and there isn't anything they can do . My last meal was a lomo Saltado large portion as I gave up on the fish and it was full of French fries .. let me guess ran out of meat on a Friday and substituted it with rice and fries .. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere . The service is bad , the atmosphere isn't great and now the food is bad ..

My father in law had a medical procedure in the area to be done and received an hour break to eat a meal. (He had not eaten for over 16 hours). We placed our order and patiently waited over 25 mins. Given that we were pressed for time I went up to the counter and asked politely ( I work in the service industry as well) how long the food had left to go because of the medical procedure we were pressed for time could the gentleman please check. He rudely told me the food takes 15 mins I don't care sit and wait. I was shocked. I manage a business locally and will let everyone know not to eat there. It is a shame given that the food is good but service is always most important. We walked out and even though I live in the area I will never return there again and will make everyone I know aware of the poor service. The world has changed competition climate is huge just in the area there are 4 more Peruvian restaurants. I hope you guys learn that poor service will ruin your business ! Mi suegro tenía un procedimiento médico en la zona a hacer y recibió una hora de descanso para comer una comida. (Él no había comido por más de 16 horas). Colocamos nuestra orden y pacientemente esperamos más de 25 minutos. Teniendo en cuenta que estábamos presionados por el tiempo me fui hasta el mostrador y me preguntó cortésmente (yo trabajo en la industria de servicios también) cuánto tiempo la comida había dejado para ir debido al procedimiento médico nos presionaron por el tiempo podría el caballero por favor comprobar. Él groseramente me dijo que la comida toma 15 minutos no me importa Siéntate y espera. Me quedé sorprendido. Yo manejo un negocio localmente y le permitirá a todo el mundo saber no comer allí. Es una pena teniendo en cuenta que la comida es buena, pero el servicio es siempre lo más importante. Salimos y aunque vivo en la zona nunca volveré allí y hará que todo el mundo sé consciente del mal servicio. El mundo ha cambiado la competencia clima es enorme sólo en la zona hay 4 más restaurantes peruanos. ¡ Espero que ustedes aprendan que el pobre servicio arruinará su negocio!

This restaurant is located in an old diner. Decent Peruvian food but nothing special. White Plains has a large Peruvian population and best indicators of quality food is to follow the natives. There are other better places around town. Till they fix their quality, presentation and service, Don't waist your time here. Sad because they mean well but it's the hard reality.
