    We dined at Chichas for a belated Valentine’s Day celebration, we enjoyed the ceviche trio sampler, the empanadas and the Fettuccine a La Huancaina Con Lomo Saltado was delicious.

    We were excited to try out this new Peruvian restaurant. But don’t bother making a reservation. Upon arriving for our dinner reservation the host told us that “We are not honoring reservations. We are too busy,” then said, “next in line.” We were seated 45 minutes past our reservation time.

    All around great night downtown at Chicha’s Peruvian Kitchen & Cafe nicely decorated for Valentine’s Day. There was a line of people that were quickly seated. Not sure if that is the situation every weekend. Thanks to Open Table we had a reservation! Many filled tables but still felt intimate due to separate rooms/areas. Also nice light and bright separate bar area where we plan to stop by for a future happy hour. Musician walking around and playing Spanish guitar was a great and unobtrusive romantic touch. And the food! Lovely small hot bread buns with butter to start. We had the sampler platter with chicken and steak. Also the chicharron de pollo appy was crispy and delicious. Please try all the sauces - chimichurri and aoli are my faves - so good and true to Peruvian style and spices. We took some to go with our leftovers. Everything was perfectly cooked and delicious - even on an extremely busy night. We will be back to try all the ceviches. People around us were very happy with them. People have obviously found this place so reservations are recommended! We will he back!

    The staff seemed a little overwhelmed by the Valentine’s Day rush, but it was still an amazing experience with excellent food and drinks.
