One of my favorite parts of my travels from Peru was definitely the food. Before I met my husband, I never tried Peruvian food before and I'm always grateful that I married into such an awesome culture.
With that being said, I have seen the rise of Peruvian eateries in Vegas and I have an itch to try them all. This time around, we came here to Peru Chicken. We ordered the pollo a la brasa (1/2 chicken) which is like a rotisserie style chicken. The combo came with rice and beans for the side, which I think is a nice change. Normally places will serve pollo a la brasa with a side of fries and salad. You also have that option here, but we thought we would switch it up. The chicken was juicy and the seasoning was on point. I'm not one who is crazy about eating the skin because it can sometimes be fatty and chewy, but the skin on this chicken is melted down beautifully and retained the seasoning well to make it super flavorful. The beans were also cooked and seasoned well. If you're not afraid to mix your food, I would totally recommend mixing the rice and beans.
The atmosphere itself is very authentic as well. Colorful decor, Latin music playing throughout, and the ovens were visible from the seating area so you can watch the chickens cook. I felt like I was in a restaurant in Peru.
I also really liked that this place sells Peruvian goodies like Doña Pepa and they also make alfajores and picarones AKA the best desserts ever! Not a lot of places in town that I've been to make picarones.
I really liked this place and I can't wait to come back to try more stuff.
