If you like flavorful roasted chicken this is a good spot. I order the 1/4 rotisserie chicken. It came with a salad and fries. The chicken was juicy and full of flavor. Not too familiar with the Peruvian cuisine but thought i tasted oregano as a part of the delicious seasoning. The skin was roasted almost crispy and tasty. It was likely marinated in a brine solution as the meat was juicy and well seasoned. The fries were well seasoned as well. The salad was run of the mill with regular iceburg lettuce, slice of tomatoe, grated carrots and drizzled with a mayo based dressing that contained oregano. The real star of this dish was the chicken. The visit to this establishment was based off a friends recommendation. The cashier/server was very friendly and helpful in making suggestions if you need guidance. Apparently, there are other Peruvian restaurants that are part of the family of Las Brasas. This one had its name changed (don't recall previous name). The menu has also changed. They have one restaurant in Alhambra as well, which has more seafood selection. They have gone to great lengths to provide a safe dining experience and have erected plexiglas surrounding tables for when the terrible governor removes the random restrictions on the poor restaurants and other businesses.
The food was really good. The server was nice. The place was clean. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the music was too darn loud.
Finally a good local Peruvian restaurant! First time my family come here and I'm so glad we came. The food is amazing and the waitress and staff were very nice and attentive. Even my kids who are picky eaters loved the food. I definitely recommend this place and most definitely coming back. Thank you Mancora!!!
This is seriously a must try place. The food is incredible and freshly prepared with every order. The E. LA location is bigger in size vs the Alhambra location but other than that the food is incredible. Staff is super nice and the owner will chat you up when hes there. Great atmosphere.
Menu is tradition and all the staff and a lot of the customers dinning in were Peruvian. So far all the dish items I've had there have tasted exceptional. I'm not well versed in Peruvian cuisine but what I've had there tasted very fresh, full of flavor and spices and the portions were reasonable. I will definitely go back
