Jumping Lomo Peruvian Cuisine — Restaurant in Pensacola

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the culinary delights of the Jumping Lomo Peruvian food truck, and I must say, it was an absolute treat for the taste buds! From the moment I approached the vibrant truck, I knew I was in for a delicious experience.

The menu offered an array of authentic Peruvian dishes, each bursting with flavor and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I sampled a variety of dishes, from traditional Lomo Saltado to flavorful Ceviche, and every bite was a true delight. The fusion of spices, aromas, and textures in each dish showcased the culinary expertise of the chefs behind this mobile kitchen.

Not only was the food exceptional, but the service was also top-notch. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and passionate about sharing their love for Peruvian cuisine with every customer. Their enthusiasm was contagious, and it added to the overall enjoyable dining experience.

Impressed by the food and service, I decided to hire Jumping Lomo for catering my event, and it was a decision that I did not regret. The guests at my event were blown away by the delicious offerings, with many going back for seconds and even asking for the food truck's contact information for future events.

A Disrespect to Peruvian Cuisine

I had high hopes walking into Jumping Lomo, but unfortunately, this place is nothing short of a joke especially if you’re familiar with real Peruvian food. As someone who knows and respects the culture, I was honestly shocked. This isn’t a fusion spot trying something new; it’s just poorly executed JOKE.

They served papa a la huancaína with French fries. Let that sink in. One of Peru’s most iconic appetizers turned into some bizarre, lazy side dish that felt more like fast food than tradition. It’s insulting to call that “Peruvian.” The flavors were off, the presentation was worse, and it clearly lacked even basic understanding of what the dish is supposed to be.

The service? Equally disappointing. Staff seemed disinterested, borderline rude, and completely unprofessional.

Overall, Jumping Lomo feels like a parody of Peruvian cuisine. If you’re looking for authentic food, or even a respectful adaptation of it, look elsewhere. This place is a sad reminder of what happens when culture is used as a gimmick instead of...

Unexpected Peruvian Delight in Pensacola 🇵🇪

I happened to stumble upon this Peruvian food truck by chance while visiting Pensacola and was instantly intrigued by the menu, so I decided to give it a try. It’s located in a plaza with several other food trucks, but unfortunately, this was the only one open at the time — which made the atmosphere a bit quiet. I believe the experience would be even better if all the trucks were operating.

I ordered the chicken empanadas — they were incredibly fresh, the filling was flavorful, and the crispy texture was just perfect. I also had the shrimp “fideo saltado,” which was absolutely delicious. The only downside was that it was a bit oily, but still, I thoroughly enjoyed every bite.

To top it off, the passion fruit smoothie was divine — super refreshing and flavorful. The two ladies who took care of me were incredibly kind and welcoming.

Hands down, this was my favorite food experience during my trip to Pensacola. Highly...
