We came in on a Friday night without a reservation (which are recommended) but we were lucky enough to get a table. This is some of the best Peruvian food I have had in the city. The lomo saltado had tender and flavorful beef and the fries tasted more like freshly cut potatos, not frozen. La copa nostra is a must order for seafood lovers. There was a variety of raw fish and squid topped with crispy shrimp and more squid. They have a clean bathroom, cozy ambiance, and helpful staff. We parked at the groccery store across the street and had no issues but do so at your own risk. Will be back and I def recommend this place!

My Peruvian friends and family really like Rosty for authentic Peruvian food. I've had several meals here and find the food to be well prepared, tasty, and generously portioned. They have an expansive Peruvian menu with almost every category of cooking that you might be interested in (stir fried noodles, rices, ceviches, appetizers, stews) and amazingly, they're all done well. In my visits, I've tried the tallarin de res, tallarin de pollo, aguadito (salty), causa, papa relleno, Jalea (love this, huge portion), ceviche clasico, Ceviche Mixto, and Lomo saltado. Don't skip drinks. I was a huge fan of the maracuya which is so fruity and refreshing, and the tropical tea.

Probably the best Peruvian food I've had in LA. We started with La Cops Nostra. An interesting dish with fried seafood and Cerviche. It was tasty. We both had Saltado. I had chicken and my wife had the seafood. We enjoyed it. Was very flavorful, but we both thought it was a little oversalted for our taste.The servers were helpful. Sitting in the comfortable dining room I appreciated the vibe. A diverse mix of people and great Latin music. Worth bookmarking for next time.

My best friend in grammar school was Peruvian. Her mom was a good cook, and I would take every opportunity to stay for dinner. I've been wanting to try Rosty since it opened and finally had the opportunity. The restaurant serves authentic Peruvian cuisine with a focus on seafood & soups. The dishes are a bit pricey and vegan & vegetarian options are also available. My friend and I received a warm greeting from Cesar. He has such a great personality. We found a table, and he brought us some menus. The ambiance is casual and the exposed brick walls & décor give it a warm, cozy feel. We were undecided about what to order so we asked Cesar for recommendations. He said Ceviche was their specialty, so we requested the Ceviche Mixto (spicy) to share. While we waited for our food, complimentary fresh bread arrived with 3 dipping sauces, which are made in house. They are bombtastic! The Aji Verde was spicy, Aji Amarillo was mildly spicy, and the Aji Blanco was mild. The Ceviche Mixto was a mixture of white fish, shrimp, squid, & mussels served with andinian corn (choclo), corn kernels (cancha), & sweet potato. Cesar suggested putting the corn on top and mixing it in. The cancha added some crunchiness to the dish. The fish was fresh and perfectly marinated. The marinade was tasty - a nice balance of citrus & spicy. The serving size was generous. We couldn't finish it all even though it was the best ceviche ever! Thank you Cesar for the recommendation and your excellent customer service!*No Alcohol*Metered street parking or lot around the corner.

Parking- I didn't see any parking lot for them although around the corner was plenty of parking. Street parking too! Food- great, high quality foods and lots of flavor. My favorite was the tallarines verdes. Lomo saltado was good too. Potato balls not so much,m. Service- great service and lots of great recommendations will definitely come again. We ordered and ate our food there, but also took some to go. Food was packaged well and meat was cooked to the right temperature.

We came here for lunch on a Sunday. The restaurant was not busy. We started with a bowl of Aguadito De Pollo (chicken soup). It was big with a generous amount of chicken & tasty. The Lomo Saltado was a huge plate. The dish was very flavorful with the perfect sauce for the fries to dip in. Hubby had the Burrito De Lomo Saltado, more of a sandwich than burrito. I took a bite, & it was yummy. The food was really good. Service was adequate. We parked on the street, a block or two away. Can't wait to go back for other dishes.

Rosty in highland park was amazing. We got there it was pretty empty between lunch and dinner time. I was hungry. The bread was delicious it was like it just came out of the oven perfectly toasted with butter it was amazing. We ordered the lomo saltado and it was delicious. It's steak crispy and salted on top of a bed of steak fries with a side of rice. They gave us 3 different sauces whatever the white sauce was delicious the green was a bit spicy for my taste but still good. I wish i could show you pictures but i devoured and left no trace to show therefore i highly recommend this place.

Disappointing service. We placed an order, but one meal was completely forgotten, leaving one with food while the other had to wait with nothing. It was frustrating and unacceptable. We also noticed another table experiencing the same issue. The restaurant seemed severely understaffed, operating with 2-3 fewer employees than needed to run efficiently.
