Casa Chaskis

By far, some of the best Peruvian if not the best food I've had in Long Neacj for some time. Save a handful of restaurants, much of LBs food has been hype without the hurrah. This spot is nowhere near the big DT players but it should be one of them. Food was insanely good, presented beautifully but not presumptively. Service was attentive but not overly so. Prep and service was fast. Decor, in and out, was in a similar vein to the food. Securely with a trek to the Wilmington side of Long Beach.

Friends recommended Casa Chaskis which is how I found myself ordering take out from here on a lazy Sunday night.The menu includes all sorts of Peruvian favorites ~ all versions of saltados and chaufas.I shared the following:-pollo saltado ($13.99): chicken stir fry with onions, tomatoes + French fries with rice-tallarin saltado de mariscos ($19.00): shrimp, fish, calamari, clams, + mussels stir fried with noodles, onions, and tomatoesAs a matter fact preference, I like a pollo saltado over a regular lomo saltado. I found the chicken in my dish to be really dry. The pollo saltado tasted a little rough and lacked the saltado flavoring. I also found the tallarin saltado de mariscos to be lackluster. There wasn't a ton of flavor coming from the seafood. I felt like both the saltado and tallarin to be really bland. They resembled their respective dishes, but beyond that, lacked any flavor. I don't know whether it's because I ordered take out on a Sunday night our food tasted so haphazard? In any case, I'll have to give Chaskis another go. And maybe I'll have to dine in and order the greatest hits the next time around.

I had very high hopes due to Yelp reviews; unfortunately, I was disappointed. As you see in my review history, I like to try different Peruvian restaurants. I went with my family and the dishes we ordered were Lomo Saltado, Paella, Lomo a lo Pobre. The Lomo Saltado was ok but it was lacking the magic of the Peruvian flair. It tasted more like the Ecuadorian Lomo Saltado. The Paella was tasty but it had more of Indian inspired flavor. I must say the service was excellent, the young waitress who helped was extraordinary!!!Would I go back, not really!

I have been wanting to visit this place for a while and finally had a chance. We arrived right when they opened so we were the first diners. The decor was quaint and colorful decor and we were greeted immediately. For starters we ordered the beef empanada and the yucca fries with the queso. The empanada was very tasty and we enjoyed. The yucca fries were hot and fresh but the queso was served cold. I wasn't sure if that is the norm or not, but it did throw me off a bit. For the mains we ordered the pescado frito with frijoles and the loma saltado. After we received our meals, I asked for bread and to my disappointment they did not have! He said their supply did not arrive as of yet. That is one of my favorite things to dine on at a Peruvian restaurant with the green sauce. The fish was fried to perfection and the loma saltado flavors were on point. The beef was a little chewy, but still good. Of course we had to wash it down with an Inca soda. For the first time we had the diet version and we liked! We ordered the ice cream to share and it didn't look anything at all like pics on the menu which was hand scooped ice cream in a glass dish. It was served in sealed container with such a small portion. I would not have ordered it I had known. All in all, this visit was a high 3, but I feel for review they deserve a 4 and maybe higher in the next visit. We enjoyed our meal and glad we got to experience Casa Chaskis.

Casa Chaki's is a hidden gem! It's a Peruvian restaurant that feels like it's quickly becoming a new favorite. Tucked away, it offers plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, with the added convenience of a parking lot for customers.I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of vegan options on the menu. I opted for the lomo saltado with steak, paired with a strawberry lemonade and a beef empanada. The meal did not disappoint. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the portions were generous. The lomo saltado was especially remarkable; I almost considered ordering another plate, despite being fully satisfied!Our group of six was welcomed warmly, and the service was impeccable. Our server was attentive, greeting us promptly, seating us quickly, and offering thoughtful recommendations. To top it off, we were treated to complimentary freshly baked bread, which was a nice touch.Casa Chaki's delivers both on taste and hospitality. For anyone seeking excellent food and exceptional service, this place is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to explore more of their menu.

Delicious and very well made! The fries in the lomo saltado were crispy and the meat was very tender!!! The green sauce you put over the the lomo is salty, sour, spicy, and creamy. The service is excellent and the ambiance is like going to your parents home for dinner. We're definitely coming back

Amazing food! I liked being able to eat outside too. The service was a little slow but to be expected with such quality food.

Second time here and I'm done with it. First time we came it took a long time to get our food. About a 30 min wait. They had people in the restaurant so I figured it must've been a busy night for them. The food was good but the wait was long. Second visit was today. We (wife and I) called around 3 to get FOUR Lomo Saltados and they took our order but the old man on the phone was short with his responses and gave zero customer service. We told him we would pick it up at 6 pm. We were meeting my father for his birthday and Peruvian is what he wanted. We arrived at 5:50 and they said it would be ready in another 10 mins. We got our order at 6 and they gave us TWO Lomo Saltados. We told them we wanted 4...that's what we ordered and the guy at the register said if it was done in the morning then it was another guy. No we called around 3....doesnt matter who took it...it was wrong. We know what we said. Second visit with bad service is now a pattern. No complaints about the taste of food but if your service is weak then the food isn't worth it.If you decide to come here I highly suggest you repeat your order if it's over the phone and give them plenty of time to have it ready. If you're eating here...be ready to wait. Plenty of other Peruvian places to get our food at so we will be taking our money there.

This place is amazing! Went for my birthday and we ordered a feast. Had the ceviche de pescado, arroz con mariscos norteño, papa a la huancaina, and the tallarin verde con pollo. The chicha sangria was great! I highly recommend this place if you're looking to try something new. I will definitely return to try the tamales.

Very good food. Vegan friendly. Vegetables all home grown. The staff was nice and considerate. Definitely recommend!
