Machu Picchu Restaurant

I recently ordered takeout from MACHU PICHU Restaurant in Brookhaven and the entree I ordered was absolutely delicious! I ordered the LOMO SALTADO (stir fry beef with onions, white rice, french fries). The meal was well-prepared, had excellent flavor, and was made with fresh ingredients. It's clear the kitchen puts a lot of care into the quality of their meals.However...I did feel that the portions were a bit small for the price ($24) especially for a takeout order. While the flavors were fantastic, I found myself wishing there had been just a little more to enjoy.Overall, though, the food was excellent, and I'll definitely order again.8/10

Machu Picchu is a ;delicious Peruvian neighborhood eatery in Brookhaven.Here are the dishes and beverages I tried:Ceviche de PescadoLomo Saltado a lo PobrePicaronesChicha MoradoHighlights were the ceviche, which was vibrant and tangy, lomo saltado, with its tender, seasoned steak and onions, and plantains, which were well-balanced with just the right amount of crispy edges. Overall, this is an eatery that is definitely worth a visit for lunch (they have lunch specials until 4p.m.) or dinner.I'll be back soon to try their stews and other seafood main courses. Stop in also to speak with Zoila García, MP owner who is passionate about serving the BuHi community!

Authentically Peruvian. Verified by my friend. Simple and true home cooking. Love to support small businesses. Worth trying to expand your horizons if you aren't familiar!

This is a mom and pops family owned restaurant. At first glance it seems quite simple but clean. However, they have little to no AC. Just fans and unfortunately that is not always the best in 90+ degree weather. At the time, only a mom and son were at the front, attending to customers. There may have been a cook in the back. Service is slow but friendly. I ordered the chicken empanada with side salad and yucca. Honestly, it was all delicious. The empanada was perfectly fried but once you opened the empanada a yummy chicken aroma burst from the inside. The chicken mix had a soupy yet mole texture. It was a pleasant surprise. The taste of the empanada was also another unique taste different from the Cuban and Mexican empanadas. The salad was fresh. And the yucca was also tasty. I hope they can get the AC running because I'd like to come again and try other dishes.

Food was really good. I went with a group on a whim and was not disappointed. It's pretty clear this spot is primarily serving people of the culture, so your best bet is to ask the staff what's good if you want the best. I had the calamari & lomo saltado with egg and was not disappointed.

I am on the hunt for more Peruvian restaurants to eat at in Atlanta.The waitress was great and very friendly. She spoke good English and was very nice.We were served bread and it came with an open butter so that is a little questionable. We were scared to eat the bread or the sauce it came with cause it could have all been old..Lomo saltado was decent but came with crinkle friesMilanesa de pollo was good, little rice and the salad was so dry, had no flavor.The service was good but the food was not. We won't be coming back here. We will continue to look for another Peruvian restaurant to enjoy. Microwave food was definitely a vibe here. Not much of a fresh taste.

Arriving in Atlanta on business, I was delighted to find a small cluster of international cuisine in walking distance of the hotel. I decided to try Machu Picchu Restaurant as I'd never before had the opportunity to try Peruvian food. Well, I'm only here a couple of nights and I believe I'll be going back.The hospitality was excellent. I mentioned that it was my first time trying Peruvian food, and they happily guided me through some recommendations. I ended up ordering the Anticuchos Especial (beef heart skewers served with their boiled potatoes and yellow pepper sauce), as well as the Arroz con Mariscos (Peruvian style paella).Both dishes were truly delicious. The beef heart was marinated in a succulent blend of spices (flavor, not heat). The papa a la hunacaina was very flavorful, and I could have consumed a LOT of the huancaina (yellow pepper sauce). I just wanted to dip the beef heart slices in that sauce all night. The paella was savory and comforting. In all, I ordered too much food for dining alone. I have no regrets... and I have leftovers for breakfast before I head to work.I'm only in town a couple more nights, and may find myself there for both of them.

Another hidden gem in north ATL.Our meals were fantastic, filling, and perfectly seasoned. The service is fantastic. The booths are comfortable and the music sets a good vibe. We plan to come back for our birthday dinners this year.

So sad to see the downward spiral in food, service and ambience. I loved the old location and was disappointed in the lack of flavor from the food, bareness of decor, and indifferent service @ newer location.
