El Chullo Peruvian Restaurant & Bar

I love small family businesses and this restaurant is just that. Small interior but very friendly and efficient staff. They seat you immediately and bring out your food quickly after you order. I ordered the Causa de Camaron, a Lomo Saltado and a jugo de piña (pineapple drink). The Lomo Saltado was authentic and delicious. It comes with beef tenderloin strips, fries and white rice sauted with onions, tomatoes and cilantro.The flavor was not overpowering and the seasoning was on point. The portion was huge and it went well with the jugo de piña. The causa de Camaron came with mashed potato, avocado and shrimp. Definitely recommend if you're around the area. Come support !

El Chullo is a humble spot in Phoenix that packs a lot of flavor! Ceviche - a good portion and I enjoyed how thin the onions were and the crunch of the peruvian corn. The dish tastes fresh, and citrusy. Causa with crab - crab potato salad so if you enjoy dishes with a soft texture, this is for you. I think I was expecting more of a punch of flavor with the vibrant color. Anticuchos - very tender skewers and I liked the blistered tomato sauce!Pisco mango and Arribaria (Peruvian eggnog) - both very dense drinks but they were smooth!

This Peruvian food was very good! I got the ceviche de pescado, which was super flavorful! It's raw fish and red onions, sweet potatoes, corn, with an acidic, creamy sauce. It is served cold, so don't be thrown off by that! The only thing is I wish it came with a noodle or rice or something. The service was good. The restaurant is pretty small and there aren't many parking spaces. I would come back!

The restaurant is small but they also have space for bar seating. The parking lot is not good; there are about 5 spots, and they are hard to get to and more difficult to get out of because you have to reverse into the busy street.The food is delicious, especially the Shrimp Causa. I got the Beef Seco a la Nortena, and that is also really good. The purple drink "chicha morada" is too sweet for me. Good drink menu.The service was fast for lunchtime, and customer service was good.Overall, a great place to try new dishes. I will come back again for more of that Causa.

A bit late of a review...we came back in April and had the same great experience as before. Service is quick, efficient and friendly. Marco was our person and he was great! This time around we had the Pollo Saltado and the Ceviche Clasico. We absolutely love the ceviche here. Theirs's isn't the classic shrimp that Mexican ceviche tends to be made with. They use a white fish that is swimming the creamiest and most yummy, limey flavored sauce. It comes with sweet potatoes and corn, some crispy and some boiled. The Pollo dish was good and because I had to experiment, I ordered it with spaghetti just to see how it be...actually loved it! I included a photo with f the fried fish because we always amazed at how much they give you! We will be back!!!

Small cute place. I enjoyed the artwork, see pics. Service was ok. We enjoyed our meals. I liked my fish stew. The cookies alfahore were too small I. Size to savor the flavor.

This place doesn't look like much from the outside but don't judge a book by its cover! In the hunt for Peruvian food? Here's your spotThis is the original location which has been a family favorite for many years. This is food you can't get anywhere else truthfully. The owners are from Peru so you know it's 100% authentic I'm so excited they opened up a new location and can't wait to check that spot out! The service is delightful. Kindest people you'll meet. I love the chicharron and ceviche mixto. My favorite drink there is the Maracuya Sour. You won't be able to get that in many places so I highly recommend that A fun spot to check out if you want to try something new

I'm sorry but this place has almost no idea of what Peruvian food is. I cameFrom California, where restaurants like Inca Mama's and Inca grill mesmerize diners with authentic, tasty, Peruvian dishes. They serve fresh baguettes with a sultry, green aji sauce squeezed out of a bottle, and all the traditional dishes to make your mouth water. But this place sure ain't that. I was perplexed because of all the raving reviews. Either people in Arizona don't know Peruvian food very well (likely), or this was a really bad night. Either way, I will rate El Chullo as 3 stars (average) and nothing more. I'd go lower, but I concede that they could have been having a bad night. We ordered the aji de gallina, and it was dry and tasteless. The rice was particularly bad. We had the saltado and it was really just average at best. There was nothing that made me want to come back. Again, I'll give them another shot and chalk it off to being busy, but as Peruvian restaurants go, if you want to be blown away, go to Inca Fusion in Goodyear. Now that's amazing. But I'd say very average for this place.

"The 7s" -- 7th Ave and 7th St are each blessed with a neighborhood gem of a Peruvian restaurant. For the unfamiliar, Peruvian food can be as simple or as complicated as you prefer. The secret is the seasoning. I'm by no means an expert on the cuisine of Peru, but it's not known to be spicy hot but, rather, flavored with a pleasant array of herbs and spices. With a bar and about a dozen tables, the 7th Street location is cozy. My companion had the Pollo Saltado, a pleasant sauté of onions, herbs and tomato with fries and rice. I chose the Arroz con Pollo and it was delightful. The surprise star was the side of Papa a la Huancaina. This is also available as an appetizer, which is highly recommended. It consists of potatoes covered with a yummy sauce that I can't fully describe except to say 'your tastebuds NEED to try it."Service was excellent from a knowledgeable team who knew how to attend to guests and make them feel at home.

Extremely hidden gem in the Valley.Service was extremely friendly, the head chef even came out and offered samples of experimental menu items for myself to try.The Lomo Saltado is by far the best I've had in the US...perfect amount of sauce, fries, meat ratio and cooked absolutely perfectly. Will be back again !! 17/10 recommend!
