5 /5 Mel G: One of the best parts of visiting South Florida is the incredible variety of food you get to experience, and Peruvian cuisine has become a must-have for us over the years. We first discovered it in Hollywood Beach, FL, and have been huge fans ever since. Unfortunately, our three favorite Peruvian spots have all permanently closed, so on this trip we were on the hunt for a worthy replacement—and that led us to Aromas del Peru.
Right off the bat, things started strong. There was plenty of parking (not always easy to find in South Florida), the restaurant was easy to locate, and we were greeted immediately with no wait to be seated. Our server was friendly, welcoming, and very efficient throughout the meal.
For drinks, we both ordered the passion fruit piscojito, and wow—the presentation alone was an 11/10. Even better, the drink itself was incredibly refreshing and perfectly balanced.
I have a serious weakness for Risotto HuancaĂna Lomado, and Aromas del Peru’s version absolutely held its own against some of the best I’ve had. The risotto was rich, creamy, and perfectly seasoned, and the steak was cooked exactly to order (medium).
Overall, our experience was wonderful from start to finish. Aromas del Peru has officially earned a spot on our must-visit list, and we’ll definitely be back on future trips to the area.
