Michael V. • March 18, 2012Pupusas are delicious! Must eat!

Mario E. • August 28, 2012Come with an open mind and you wont be disappointed. Definitely get an Arepa - they are so delicious!

David R. • November 19, 2018One of the best deals in the city. Recommend the chicken, lomo saltado, mac, and beef empanadas. May reservations and get ready to be well fed.

Ami H. • October 8, 2019Original lomito (with pork loin) sandwich is substantial and makes a delicious, shareable snack. Great layers of bright flavor and texture.

Amy R. • August 19, 2014Small and cute. Romantic. Fantastic ceviche. Taquenos were delicious. Duck quesadilla also yummy. Chicken in peanut sauce was kind of bland.

Felipe O. • June 18, 2016When I miss home, this is where I come for pastel and acai. Feijoada on Saturdays are also worth a shot.

Reserve • July 6, 2016A bustling Peruvian eatery, Mochica serves up several tasty ceviche combinations including mixed seafood with mussels, clams and shrimp tossed in lime juice, and ahi tuna with toasted nori.

Ben Q. • September 24, 2018Much recommended: delicious empanadas served fresh, warm and fast + great atmosphere and service. Cherry on the cake: they have good coffee. Perfect lunch spot!

Pranay S. • March 15, 2015Ceviche to die for. So fresh and delicious. The meat plates are amazing as well and so are the drinks! Don't bring a vegetarian friend along.

Jonathan C. • July 15, 2016Burgers are delicious. And Junior, one of the nicest fellows.

Laurel F. • August 8, 2021The empanadas are amazing. They’re so big -almost a full meal on their own with a beer. Love the adobo sandwich and bowl.

Joanna F. • October 10, 2016My favorite restaurant and rooftop bar! Lolinda is an Argentinian steakhouse and El Techo is the rooftop bar on top that serves really good apps and margs.

Katie M. • May 19, 2017Not sure if they're testing a new menu, but they no longer offer rotisserie chicken here. Which is a shame.

Lesley K. • September 23, 2017the ipanema smoothie!

Anthony N. • May 17, 2011Try the chicken dish, Aji De Gallina, if you love spicy foods! The level of spice was mere perfect!

Joshua H. • February 26, 2015Favorite rotisserie chicken ever. Also love the chicharron de pollo. Great value and atmosphere, just make sure to get reservations since they're usually packed.

Pierre A. • August 18, 2020Totally addicted to their Pao de Queijo 😱 try them all!

Aldo G. • November 5, 2013I can't wait to eat here again when I go back to San Francisco! Great food and great service!

Letícia S. • August 21, 2017That's the place where diets come to die... But it's SO WORTH IT! I loved every minute of it, between the amazing food and the exquisite service is difficult to find a flaw (it is expensive though)!

James I. • February 13, 2010Great pan con chicharron on Saturdays.

Smoochella S. • February 17, 2016The Maracuya taste just like Peru!

ivy♥ • September 21, 2010The service is excellent. Enjoy their great salad bar but leave some room for the great selection of beef. PS. DO get grilled pineapple. It's perfect after you have several pieces of meat.
