Love Peruvian cuisine!!! This mom and pop hole in the wall joint is where it’s at! Growing up I’ve always had Relatives who... owned small family Owned joints and honestly these are the places you’ll find the most authentic dishes quality & quantity!!We didn’t feel like cooking the other night after my daughters gymnastics so the wife and I decided on take out I picked thespot ordered the family pack 12 tacos 6-G.beef hard shell tacos, 6- carnitas supreme tacos and 1-dish of the chicken spinachgreen pasta. ???? nothing short of amazing. The place itself is old run down But the owners were awesome great hospitalitywill definitely return and recommend to anyone!! Read more

Can't stop thinking about the chips & salsa. Perfection! The carnitas tacos had homemade tortillas and you could taste the... difference. So far the best birria tacos, street tacos and chips and salsa I've had in Sac Read more

First time visit. No customer service. I ordered the beef LOMO SALTADO and it is not worth the $19 and I don’t even recommend... it. Just save yourself money and cook marinaded beef with soy sauce, throw some fries in the air fryer, cook some rice, chop apound of red onions and add two pieces of tomato. Just order something else from their menu and hopefully you guys get somecustomer service. 2 stars cause the fries were crispy and well seasoned. Read more

Caveat: I'm going to give this place another try before I pass final judgement That said, the place is nice and clean, with... friendly staff. There's indoor seating but spaced so as to be not too crowded feeling. Ordering ahead for takeaway thru ChowNowwas easy and accurate. But if anything the food was under seasoned to a fault. The tallarain con camerones tasted just like thesoba noodles the dish was derived from, basically soy sauce. My wife felt her dish was fairly bland as well. Again, it wasn't*bad*, and everything else is fine, so it's worth another shot Read more

I come here specifically for the Peruvian ceviche mixto. It's the best in Sacramento. When I was younger, before I went bald, I... had long, luxurious, silky hair. It was glorious. I... Was glorious. It was a time before the responsibility of adulthood waslaid upon my shoulders and the world still felt new. The internet, the thing I'm typing this review on, was still in it'sinfancy. I'd spend my evenings (when not conditioning my lustrous hair) on AOL chat rooms. "ASL?" Someone wouldask. "20/M/Sacto... Amazing hair," was my response. That joyous feeling of meeting and exceeding expectations I had felt thenwhen I looked at my magnificent hair every day... Is the same level of joy I feel eating this ceviche. 5 stars. Read more

I had the Peruvian pescador, my wife had a very flavorful chicken dish and her boss had the marisco. Mine was fried just so and... the fish was very tender and was very flavorful. The tarter sauce had some spice and lime inside and made for a wonderful dipfor the fried seafood. They also have a pesto like dip from the salsa bar that made the chips taste perfect. Everything was sogood and the servings were generous. A great treat! Read more

First time here and boy oh boy am I happy I found this hole in the wall! From the outside not much of an appearance but once you... step inside the whole place smells Awesome! Ordered the seafood platter, 3 meat combo with a side of tilapia...and don't get mestarted on those desert cookies! So good my wife and I couldn't resist not sharing...oops! And Thank you Jimmy's for making somelegit horchata!! Read more

Amazing quality food at reasonable prices, feels like you're Having a meal at a friend's house. The dining room is simple and... small chips and salsa bar is available. The need to work on the ventilation system as the restaurant got little smokey. Wouldrecommend the restaurant, 4 stars only due to the ambiance. Read more
