Kantu Peruvian Cuisine Restaurant

We came here for lunch and the food was delicious! For appetizers, we had the pulpo and fried yuca. For entrees, we had the mar y tierra, fried red snapper, and steak. For dessert, we had their tiramisu. Drinks were also great. Our server Daryl was friendly and attentive. The service was excellent. We highly recommend this restaurant and are excited to come back!

I’ve been here about three times with different groups, and every visit has been fantastic. The food is so good that I always forget to take photos—we sit down and immediately dig in. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, which makes the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming. We most recently came to celebrate a birthday and tried the lomo saltado, tallarín saltado, churrasco de pollo, tallarín verde, and arroz chaufa—every dish was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The portions are generous and very satisfying. We also enjoyed the pisco sours and pitchers of chicha morada, which tastes truly authentic. I’ve had chicha morada at other places, but this one is by far my favorite and a must-order every time. For dessert, we tried the lúcuma tiramisu—so flavorful that we didn’t even share and ended up ordering a second one. Whether you’re planning a date night or a family dinner, this place is always accommodating and makes you feel right at home. I’m already looking for an excuse to come back.

We were visiting from Hollywood FL, Queens is my wife's old stomping grounds, where she grew up we found this place called Kantu, from the moment you walk in, the decor the cleanliness, a real cool spot. We were seated, then our waiter Daniel came over, he is what really brings it all together, real cool guy, great customer service, very welcoming, had great recommendations for drinks and food. We had a few drinks first, I had a pisco mango and my wife had the chinka,the drinks were pretty good. For lunch I had the recommended ceviche de pescado, and my wife had the aguadito de pollo. The fresh fish , cilantro, lime and just the right amount of heat made for one of the best ceviches I've eaten. My wife's aguadito de pollo was delicious fresh ingredients homemade taste all the way down. Thank you Daniel for the great experience, Thank you Kantu, you guys rock!

Went here for the first time, we where a group of 4 people. Oh boy the food was AMAZING. Had the mar y tierra dish with tacu ta u and plantains and it was delicious. I also had a mixed ceviche and a pisco sour and their were both also delicious. Service was very good and also the atmosphere. This place remained me a bit of my latino home. Will definitely comeback here again.

I gave Kantu Peruvian Cuisine 4 stars overall. The atmosphere was definitely a 5 — it’s such a beautiful, welcoming space and makes the whole experience feel special. The food was a solid 4. My boyfriend and I both had the lomo saltado, which was flavorful and cooked well. We also ordered papa a la huancaína, calamari, and a chicken and cheese empanada. Everything tasted really good, especially the empanada and the papa a la huancaína — great flavor and nice portions. The service was about a 3. It wasn’t bad, but it could have been a little more attentive. Overall though, we had a great time and would definitely come back to try more dishes!
