What diners say — our read

Reviews here split hard: 17 five-star against 2 one-star, with little in between. Service tends to be raised approvingly here, averaging 4.5 stars.

One subject never comes up here: how long an order takes. If you had to pick one number to represent this corpus it would be 5, the most frequently given rating (17 reviews). 19 of 22 rated reviews are four stars or higher; 2 are two or lower.

The inspection lands in between as well: DBPR graded this kitchen a C (71/100), citing 3 high-priority and 5 basic violations. DBPR last walked in on March 18, 2026. The trend across inspections is improvement. Ranked against Orange County, it is safer than 9% of the restaurants we score. The citations behind that grade include cross-contamination and food-contact surfaces clean and sanitized.

The honest summary is that the evidence is mixed on both sides. The individual reviews are below, newest first, if you want the raw material.

    Tuve una muy buena experiencia en Taste Peru. Es un lugar agradable, limpio y con un ambiente acogedor para disfrutar en familia o con amigos. La comida peruana es deliciosa, con mucho sabor y porciones generosas. Además, los precios son razonables para la calidad de los platos que ofrecen. Otro aspecto que destaca es la atención al cliente. Las meseras son muy cordiales, amables, bellas y siempre están pendientes de que no falte nada en la mesa. Su trato hace que la experiencia sea aún más agradable. Sin duda, es un restaurante que recomendaría a cualquiera que quiera disfrutar de auténtica comida peruana, buen servicio y una excelente relación calidad-precio. ¡Volveré pronto!

    If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would! Not only was the food delicious and beautifully presented, but the staff also went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. They were warm, welcoming, and gave excellent recommendations. We tried the mixed ceviche and my husband had the Seco de Cordero and both were spectacular. Amazing atmosphere, top-tier hospitality, and phenomenal food.

    Realmente nunca coloco reviews pero la experiencia sobre todo con el supuesto Sancoché de pescado fue realmente pésima para un lugar peruano y más con los precios que manejan.

    10/10 - I’ve been to quite a few Peruvian restaurants, but this one is it. The atmosphere, food, and service are all amazing. It’s clean, and most importantly, the food tastes delicious!

    Amo la comida del restaurante pero si tienen alergia a los mariscos no les recomendaría. Puedo yo me pedí jalea de PESCADO y ceviche. De PESCADO y me dio una alergia terrible. Parece que hay contaminación cruzada, deben tomarse más enserio el separas los pescados de los mariscos!!!

    Amazing service and food. Will return!!
