Peru Chikann: Reviews & Ratings
Chef Freddy who has been on Cooking Network show “Cook with Bobby Flay” has opened his Peruvian Restaurant in Hillsborough. My god I have never thought in my dreams that Peruvian food is so delicious and it’s cooked really well. This is a finding of my friend who introduced me with Chef Freddy and I was blown away with the quality, freshness & quantity of the food. I’m bringing my family for diner sometime really soon. If you have not tasted Peruvian food you must visit and tell my friend (Freddy) you saw my post.
This place is amazing. I'm so happy that a Peruvian restaurant opened nearby, and even happier that it's so good. We had papas rellenas as an appetizer, which wasn't on the menu but a special today, and it was sooo good. Had the lomo saltado for dinner and it was excellent. Then we were offered a few desserts - we got the picarones and were blown away. If I could give this place 10 stars out of 5, I would!
Very good Peruvian food, the parihuela soup was amazing. Prices are reasonable. The staff are also so nice and attentive. Will definitely be coming back!
Phenomenal! I’ve already been here twice in one week. I’m glad I found a local Peruvian spot nearby. The food has been amazing! Oh! And the passionfruit smoothie, so delicious. I’ll be back soon.
Very nice clean cooking. Good proportion of food. Quick service and courteous. Bringing the bill gets delayed a little.
Just like some of the other reviews, we were shocked that this restaurant was empty when we walked in. The food tasted amazing and the service was excellent. For entrees, we ordered the fried rice with chicken and the bistec a lo pobre. The portion sizes were generous for the price - two entrees could have served at least three people. Would go back to try more menu items!
Chikann Peru is a hidden gem! The food and service were absolutely amazing. We started with appetizers: the Chorros a la Chalaca were delicious, the Fried Calamari with Salsa Criolla left us wanting more, and the Palta Rellena was top-notch. For the main course, we ordered Pescado a lo Macho— that was a standout, swimming in a rich sauce that had us savoring every bite. The Arroz Chaufa de Pollo was fantastic, and the Tallarin Verde (one with tender steak and the other with juicy grilled chicken) was packed with flavor. We also tried the Tacu Tacu delicious! All these plates were paired perfectly with sides of Plantains, Maduros, and Yuca Frita. For dessert, the Flan and Picarones were to die for. Those Picarones!—were warm, sweet, and absolutely irresistible. I highly recommend this place for an authentic Peruvian dining experience—everything was full of flavor and truly unforgettable! See you soon!
My family always talks about how good Peruvian chicken is so I looked up Peruvian restaurants in the area and found this place and decided to check it out. It is pretty nice inside and a gentlemen greeted me right away and was very friendly. I got the half chicken with rice and beans. Food was amazing and easily worth it. Was surprised to see the place empty considering how good the food is and how good the reviews are for this place. Definitely won’t deter me because I will be back.
