MEMORIES OF PERU II
Great reviews, failing grade. MEMORIES OF PERU II carries a 4.8-star reputation on 10,904 reviews, but its kitchen last graded out at 58/100 — an F on our A–F scale.
That F comes from 2 high-priority, 5 intermediate, and 11 basic violations cited on January 20, 2026.

Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
The crowd and the kitchen disagree here, and the gap is wide. How guests are treated tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 5.0 stars.
The split is 28 positive to 0 negative across 28 rated reviews. Conspicuously absent: wait times, which no reviewer brings up. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 27 of the 28 reviewers who rated.
None of that is visible in a star rating: the most recent DBPR inspection graded this kitchen an F (58/100), citing 2 high-priority, 5 intermediate, and 11 basic violations. Diner sentiment and inspection result are measuring different things here, and only one of them is checked by the state. That inspection was on January 20, 2026. Its inspection trajectory is upward over the records we hold. That puts it ahead of 3% of graded kitchens in Orange County. Among the items recorded were cross-contamination and in-use food dispensing utensils properly stored.
Taken together, this is a place diners like and inspectors do not. A good meal and a clean kitchen are different questions. Everything above is computed from the 28 reviews reproduced below.
