El Chullo Peruvian Restaurant

This cafe-style restaurant is a festive place to spend an evening with friends, either inside in the colorful dining room or outside on the patio. Assuming the monster on the outside wall doesn’t scare you away (the llama keeps him at bay), you will find food inside as good or better than we found in Lima. The portions are generous and tasty and the service is good. We ordered a second helping of the plantains, which I suggest accompanying with the house yellow sauce, which I think is Aji Amarillo-based. At first I thought some of the dishes had too many fries, then I remembered that without Peru the Earth would not have one of the foods that makes it the best planet in the Universe: the potato. So bring ‘em on. Being red wine drinkers, we were happy to see several reasonably priced bottles. If it’s a special occasion, be sure to tell them, else you’ll miss being regaled by the Inca who haunts this place. We’ll be back, especially with friends,

My experience today was great! My husband and I were looking for good food and this was the best choice. Joana took care of us SO kindly, she made us feel amazing! we will definitely come back for her! thank you Joana!

I was a complete idiota and didn’t take a picture of the gorgeous ceviche that they served me. To be fair, I was on a first date, and although I warned her of my obsession with Google maps, I didn’t want to take too many pictures and completely scare her off. El Chullo was the perfect culmination to our evening, featuring bright colors, brilliant food, and a beaming staff. For those not in the know, Peruvian food utilizes soy sauce (not in every dish, of course) because of the influence of Japanese immigrants. Who knew??

Went here with friends, and tried out several different dishes. So good! A must is their empanadas ( love the beef empanada) , served with green hot sauce. A very good restaurant with great service. Definitely coming back!

Being a Peruvian was really hard to find a restaurant that tastes like real Peruvian food when we found El Chullo my family and I can not stop coming every time we need our Peruvian food , very delicious I highly recommend Ceviche, Anticuchos, Arroz chaufa especial and Lomo saltado.
