Amazing Peruvian food and excellent service. We ordered Desayuno de Lurín and Adobo Arequipeño, and both dishes were delicious. The flavors were authentic, the portions were generous, and everything was served fresh. The customer service was outstanding. One of the waitresses is from Arequipa, and she was incredibly kind and polite, which made the experience even better. This was our first visit to Picantería El Picarón, and we were very impressed. They also have ceviches and other traditional Peruvian dishes that look amazing. We highly recommend this place to anyone who loves Peruvian cuisine. Great food, great service, and a very welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back! 🇵🇪

We were sad to see Wong Gee go but knew we had to try the new Peruvian place that moved in. We were not disappointed. The service was prompt and the food was fantastic. We got huancaina and ceviche for appetizers, chicha marada for drinks, and they had lucuma and cherimoya ice cream for dessert that we couldn't pass up. The entree portions were very generous. All that with a ~25% tip came out to about $50-60 per person. The one Peruvian native in our group assured us the food tasted authentic. This is a budding minority owned small business that deserves your time and money and you won't regret it. I hope they get a website soon with the menu online. This should help them with outreach.

Ordered a pollo saltado and house salad. Pickup time was 4:15 as I ordered online. I get there before the time and they didn’t even start on my order but they were waiting for me to write down a tip to start my order. With my salad I asked for ranch in the notes and when I arrived. Checked my bag, no ranch I go back inside and the manager looks at me confused knowing they don’t have ranch and hands me Aji Amarillo sauce ( yellow sauce), just say you don’t have ranch. Open up my pollo saltado and everything is separated, usually everything should be combined, I have no issue with this. During my fourth bite I start chewing on a huge piece of plastic. So disappointed with this overall

I had the pleasure of dining at Picanteria el Picaron with a group yesterday, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish! I've never been to Peru.. but I felt transported as there was a clear feeling of authenticity to the food. The ceviche was absolutely AMAZING—so fresh, zesty, and perfectly balanced. You can tell they use the highest quality ingredients.

Beyond the fantastic food, the hospitality was top-notch. The staff was warm and attentive. The owner even took the time to check in on guests, which added a personal touch to the experience.

If you're looking for authentic Peruvian cuisine with a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to go. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes!...
