Mi Peru Restaurante — Restaurant in Maryland

Well... was my first time here, small, kinda cozy, few tables outside, not that busy (maybe because the time of the day I was and of course the temperature outside, around 90°) well! since it's a peruvian restaurant and my 1st time, I should try the "plato bandera" from Perú right? Ceviche; I should say the taste was good, better than many other peruvian restaurants in the area (I'll say very close 2 Barra Brava), price? about the same, pay cash and save like 80¢, unfortunately they don't have liquor license yet so no beer with ur ceviche 😒 (I know a classic one), but plenty of sodas and some juices. I asked my ceviche without cancha (toasted corn) just in case, that's why is not in the picture. The reason about my 3 stars it's because the sweet potato and the corn (choclo) were so hot, I could still see the steam coming from them, maybe just straight from the hot pot, that of course make the dish warm and ruin the flavor, lime juice warm? no right? so I asked the server if I could have a cold ones but she said that was the way they serve the ceviche; really??? a dish that it's supposed 2b very refreshing turned into a warm dish with a different flavor now, warm Leche de tigre and warm peaces of fish (perfect cut by the way) in your mouth, just ruined, not good! 😒 I'll try it again in a few months let c if they improve it. or just order without them, but paying $20 (with cc) for an incomplete ceviche dish??? 🤔 kinda expensive right? or just order another dish. maybe lomo saltado, I heard...

I love this place!!!! The food is amazing and when you dine in you get the famous yellow sauce unlimited so no need to pay extra like in other Peruvian restaurants. Their weekday "menu specials" are the best deal and since they change everyday you get to try all the amazing Peruvian foods for a great deal it includes a drink, soup, and entree and the drinks are really good too. The environment is so cozy very chill place and every staff, cook and waiter are so humbly nice very eager to serve. Overall very nice mom and pop restaurant. I have been there for an all girls thing, on a date, and with my kids. The number one thing about this restaurant I love is the FOOD and drinks they are amazing! please visit you will not regret it and they are super friendly and try to serve quickly and the prices are so good for the amount of food they serve! I found my best local Peruvian restaurant. I never leave reviews but after coming here very often and every time have such great service I have to share with others it's a hidden gem....

Mi Peru must be recognized for a metric that is often overlooked in charbroiled chicken joint reviews. The chicken, which is fantastic, is similar to Sardi's Don Pollo, etc... As is the sauce. But not enough reviews go over the quantity of the sauce. For dine-in chicken, Mi Peru is SUPERIOR because you get a FULL BOTTLE of green and yellow sauce 0n the table. Most other restaurants will nickle and dime you for every drop of their sweet ambrosia-like signature sauce. At Mi Peru they supply you with the very generous amount of INFINITY. If you are looking for a dine-in chicken experience that is superior by INFINITE measure, look no further than Mi Peru. The staff is...
