Can't blame them for being a popular eatery in a neighborhood with no parking. Took a few spins around a few blocks but landed a space within walking distance. Wait staff were all very nice and helpful in ordering from the menu. Every item came to the table steaming hot and freshly made. Loved the wonton soup. Lomo Saltado nicely seasoned with a side of green (verde) sauce for an extra kick, if desired. House special fried rice and side of white beans, balanced off the order. I had them prepare a half chicken to go, which comes with fried rice or steak fries. Bill came to just under $100 with tip; a bit pricey, but we definitely got all and more for what we paid for. Dining in is a bit risky, especially if they are busy. I counted 6 tables that seated 4. But take-out seems to be a common practice among many! Highly recommend this establishment for all the above reasons!!!
Been coming here since I was a kid and still hands down the best Peruvian Chinese food I've had.
This place is amazing!!! I love this place sooooo much I just recently bumped into this place tried it and never stopped coming. I drive from nyc every week to eat here.
Highly recommend! Food was delicious and good service when I went to go pick it up!!!
Sumptuous food and good portions. We orders lo mien, chicken, two fried rice dishes, Ceviche and chicken soup with noddles. Amazing! Stop by and order a take-out but there's enough room if you want to dine in. You know it's good when you see locals eating in.
I love the food consistency so every time I come to my Peruvian to go chicken spot. There is no failure on the flavor neither the juicy and tenderness. Greatly recommended and affordable!
Alas! I get to try a popular recommended Peruvian restaurant & boy was I not surprised that there was no parking, the inside dining was full and was in line for take-out! It's on a main street which I find can be quite frustrating when desiring parking, especially when hungry. I decided to try their small size shrimp & chicken chaufa, a small duck soup, an alfajore & their special homemade Peruvian chocolates. The generous portion of a small sized chaufa awed me. I was able to take 2 lunches out of that! I was hoping to have large sized devined shrimp and pieces of tender chicken, but instead got small shrimp & mini cubes of what appeared to be on the dry side perhaps because it was from the breast. Besides that & being a bit oily, I still enjoyed the flavor of their chaufa! The duck soup called Pato Especial is surprisingly better than it looks. Unfortunately because of how small a small chinese container is, I got only a small duck portion, veggies and soup. If I were to dine in, this would likely be a main of mine to try. The duck is seasoned in what reminds me of the Chinese style, it's like roasted with that particular flavor & has a toast crunch on the skin. Wow. Along with the soup & veggies, it's just so0o warm & comforting. I really could eat this often. This was definitely my highlight. Alfajore is a never ending love. Their alfajore is an enjoyable portion which I greatly appreciate with a caramel that was soft & creamy! I haven't seen that! Maybe because it was still warm & loved it that way. Lastly was the chocolates, I was explained that they are 2 kinds, one fruits and another with a nut (if I'm not mistaken). It wasn't my favorite because both the milk chocolate & the white chocolate tasted like those easily melted chocolate wafers. I think the concept would be much improved with quality chocolate... Anyhow, overall Jaimito's is a place to dine!
