    Signature dishes like marinated beef heart and ceviches are joined by (fully cooked) ceviche de pollo and pork spare ribs. At the bar, expect plenty of pisco sours, but also traditional chilcanos.

    That ceviche is amazing, we also got the anticucbo de corazon, so delicious. I recommend family style so get to try everything, there isn't a bad thing on the menu

    Great service. Nice lighting. Nice music, very pleasant food - you can sit here and eat vegan good from Chavela.

    I've been frequenting Los Balcones since its opening. The atmosphere is fancier, the portions are smaller, but the food is still tasty.

    Peruvian food! Park at the Arclight Theater garage down the street and get the lomo saltado. Go see a movie after and validate your parking. Buy your Arclight movie tickets before u go out online...! Read more

    Good food but not very traditional unless you just want a lomo saltado. Forget any chifa but overall good food.

    La comida es muy cara, no es para nada sabrosa, no lo recomendamos para nada, pedimos un lomo satado, y algunos pedazos estaban crudos y otros quemados, dejan muy mal el nombre de lomo saltado.
