LA Food | A Must-Try Peruvian Spot You Can’t Miss in LA! 🇵🇪✨
🏡 Mario‘s Peruvian & Seafood 📍 5786 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90038 If you’re near Hollywood, don’t miss this restaurant—it’s delicious, generous in portion, and totally satisfying! 👍🏻 🧆 Saltado de Mariscos – $22 Stir-fried seafood with fries! (They also have beef/chicken options.) I prefer the seafood version—it’s loaded with ingredients, high-protein and low-fat… eats like a dream 😌 🥘 Parihuela – $22 I’d call this the South American version of Tom Yum seafood soup! The tomato flavor stands out more (no lemongrass or mint notes)—definitely a must-try here! But honestly… the crab legs were a tiny bit less fresh than expected. 🍤 Jalea de Mariscos – $24.75 A mix of fried seafood—cooked to perfection! Crispy but not greasy! It’s already seasoned with lemon juice, so it’s good as-is. If you like it tangier, squeeze on more lemon 🍋 🥤 Inca Kola – $4 A national soda supposedly only found in Peru! I looked it up online—not sold in China. Tastes a bit like cotton candy? Not sure, but it brought back childhood vibes—pretty good, would recommend! 💵 Average per person: $30 Check out the receipt at the end for reference ~ We left a $10 cash tip 💵 Have you tried Mario’s or another Peruvian restaurant in LA?
