Had lunch with a friend here, and we were both impressed and pleased. The food was very flavourful, fresh and filling. The atmosphere is fine for casual or something nicer. It's an attractive place with a cute little bar. The lunch and daily specials are great value. It looks like they have numerous tasty offerings I'd like to try. Definitely recommend.

My sister and I ordered quite a bit. She had the anticuchos - get 3 skewers decent size of cow heart pieces and some fried Yuka and a side aji. The charcoal/grill flavour was present though lacking in the marination flavour to the anticuchos. The aji compliment the anticuchos. May have needed more marinating time and salt. She got the quarter chicken with a side option of your choice, fries. The style is different and not quiet a Peruvian polla a la brasa. It was good. The skin was flavourful and crisp. The complimentary side aji sauce was delicious. I order papa a la huancaina, ceviche mixto (tilapia, squid, mussels, and shrimp), and aji de gallina. The papa dish - excellent! A different style and light medium sauce and taste the flavour. Though one potato slice had a brown core, hollow heart. I recommend the papa. The ceviche mixto was disappointing. The leche de Tigre was there but the tilapia had no flavour and needed salt and more marinating time to infuse the leche de Tigre. You had the canchitas, y camote. The sweet potato was buried at the bottom of the dish. It comes with a side of rocoto, oooh spicy. Presentation -10 points. My sister put an anticuchos skewer on the ceviche along with some yuka frita and it looks appealing. I look forward to another try with ceviche. The aji de gallina, the sauce flavour was delicious. Though the chicken meat seems to not have soaked up the flavour. The dish just made it to a passing grade. Request a container for the aji de gallina. Odered a cup of chicha mora and tasted more like apples and a bit strong taste of cinnamon. A different take on the drink. The experience was new and gave it a try. 4 and a half stars

Los Chicos in Markham is a Peruvian restaurant where the coffee is excellent, with beautifully frothed milk. The grilled beef heart is perfectly cooked and flavorful—a must-try. The seafood platter is generous and fresh. My daughter ordered ceviche, which included cancha, a type of crunchy corn nut. It was my first time trying it, and it has a texture somewhat like a mix of corn and peanuts—quite tasty. Their sauces tend to be a bit sour, so if you're not used to that, you might want to skip them. It's a nice little bar where you can drink and watch the game.

This was my first visit to a peruvian restaurant as I had heard alot about this place before but never tried, I must say the overall experience was great and their charbroiled rotisserie chicken, cassava chips and Pisco Sour cocktail was finger licking and delicious!

Really good food. I've ordered family meals many times but today was a date inside the restaurant and the ambiance is actually really good! Never had an idea! Food was good. We ended up having the lunch special so two chicken wraps with fries for me and fries and Peruvian salad for her. One thing we both noticed was the food was a bit dry. We would have liked it if there was a little bit of sauce. Also, cheese within the sandwich would be nice. But alas. Finally, with the greens they were a little bit wet and it got stuck in the back of mouth. That got a little bit weird as it just felt weird having there but yeah, that's about it lol Good little vibes here for sure. I should of reviewed earlier.

The manager is so nice and our top favourite is the chicken, yuka fries and definitely give the beef hearts a try. We did not really enjoy the lomo saltado with the fried blended in... A bit salty and not unique. The fried corn snackie was interesting to try.

There’s something special about this place. As soon as you enter, you can smell meat being smoked, and you’re greeted right away. You go through this beautifully designed hallway and you’re automatically in a new dining setting. The design is easy on the eyes and there’s so much to look at, all at the same time. The menu: I had a really hard time picking a meal. Why? Everything sounded amazing. This menu was well crafted and portion sizes are superb. The drink menu alone is extremely authentic - I suggest you go for the passion fruit drink! Service: the bar tender/waiter was extremely helpful and took amazing care of us. Very welcoming and very warm atmosphere. I’ll be back. I need to try the steak and seafood. This is a must in my book. Such a unique find in Markham. - also, they imported their oven from Peru to give you an authentic taste of their 24HR marinated meats! Thank you for all that you do, this restaurant is amazing.
