LOMITO Peruvian Food

So glad that there's top notch Peruvian food in town! I ordered online when I was in Darien and was in Westport within minutes - my Lomo Saltado with top sirloin and sweet potato fries (and a cup of Tres Leches for dessert) were all ready for pickup! Love their newly designed space and storefront big screen menus above. When I got home, saw that they use sustainable packaging and kept the food warm enough to eat without reheating. The beef was tender and so well seasoned along with the red onions and tomatoes on top of french fries and a generous portion of rice. Honestly had to save half for dinner and I was still full after both meals. Tres leches was creamy delicious, not too sweet and I also split that for 2 meals. I really didn't need the side of sweet potato fries, but I downed that too! The spicy rocoto red sauce was good, not killer hot and of course the Peruvian green sauce was excellent. I bought an extra 3 ounces to keep in the fridge, ha! Oh, for those of you coming in from out of town, park on Franklin St, don't park on Saugatuck Ave because you can't.

I really hate to give this place a 2 star review, but I was not impressed by what we ate here for the cost. We ordered 2 lomo dishes. Was super pumped to have found this place because it was near to us. I will say it was very easy to order online and it was ready when we pulled up. Now for the food, the portion size was okay, but not great for $18 a plate. They also offer different cuts of meat that would cost more. We opted for the top sirloin. It was nicely cooked and tender, but had no flavor to it. I think the reasoning for this could be because of their packaging. I have added photos of what I'm talking about. They use a very thin paper-like container that absorbs all the juices that the lomo naturally has. The container also starts to fall apart as you are eating. This is a big issue because this is a take out place. The plantains are five out of five. That was the best part of the dish. The rice was on the dryer side which didn't help the plate. The onions are a great touch, but there are too many of them. I'm not an expert in this dish just giving my opinion. Tomatoes are also cut on the bigger side. Overall wouldn't pick this as our go to spot. The major turn off for us was their sauces. For some reason they tasted like straight pickles which is not a thing that they were used to when it comes to Aji. Had that not been the case it might have given it a better flavor. Again I hate to give it a 2 star because I want this place to be a 5 star, but it's just not. I'm sure their other plates might taste better, but if you can't get the sauce and the lomo right it does not give me much hope for the rest of the dishes.

Best Peruvian food nearby!! The best lomo saltado I’ve ever had and best pork belly as well! The quality of the food is all consistent fresh and savoring! Thank you Deimairth for your service! LOMITO is the best highly recommended!

Lomito is amazing - I never leave reviews but while eating our takeout, my husband said “we should really leave a nice review for this place” so here we are! I ordered two servings of the Lomo Saltado for my family of three. We are stuffed and have a ton of leftovers for tomorrow. It was quick, it was delicious, it was affordable. Run, don’t walk! We will definitely be back.

very tasty food, I was satisfied. The dessert is amazing. The portion is large enough to serve two people. Very recommended!
