EL AJI PERUANO — Restaurant in Banning

We had been looking forward to coming here. The food did not disappoint. It is nice seeing more variety of restaurants come to Banning. It is nice to be able to support a family restaurant. Everyone was so kind there. We were so excited and hungry that we forgot to take pictures of the food. Oh well, next time.

We ended up getting 3 appetizers and 1 main dish. Shared it between two adults and a toddler. They also had an infused water with lemon and blackberry. Empanadas, Papa Rellena, Ceviche and Arroz Chaufa with chicken. The empanadas were so fresh/yummy and came with a side salad. The potatoes were really good and a hit with our child. The ceviche didn't come with chips which is what we are used to yet had an amazing flavor. The fried rice is the freshest that we have ever had with a great variety of vegetables.

Alright, I just saw this peruvian spot open in banning and wanted to give it a shot. The place is a bit small. Family restaurant for sure as they had a younger girl helping wait the table. She was very nice. I got a variety of plates to try them. The saltado de lomo and shrimp were really tasty. The chicken one was not l, it was too sweet, alsmot tasted like teriyaki chicken. These portions were very small. Maybe make em a bit bigger. Also had the arroz chaufa and the bistek de pobre. The rice was really good and a big portion.

I will come back when improvements are done. Overall, 4 stars based on taste and service . Improvements are just a bit more food portions, and glass...

I’ve become a regular customer since last year every chance I get I will eat here. Why ? Because it is the best food I’ve ever eaten so tasty and cooked to perfection. The owners are going to have live music starting August 30th 6PM to make the ambiance even better in a small room. If you want to try something new and delicious please come and eat here I know you won’t be disappointed One less star as in the hottest part of the day the AC has a hard time keeping the temperature lower especially when it’s 102 outside it’s not as cool as I would like it to be but still comfortable enough to eat there. Avoid the afternoons near 2- 3 PM when the heat outside is over 100 degrees or ask the owners to place a fan...
