    Came here on a whim on a Saturday since my friend and I were in the neighborhood. I've had Peruvian food maybe once or twice in my life so I was excited to try it again. It's located at the corner of a very busy street with a lot of other restaurants. The location is great because it's right at the corner of the park nearby which is super nice for a stroll after eating. Our waitress was really nice and we waited maybe 5 minutes while a table freed up. There is no outdoor seating, so it's only indoor, but the tables are spaced really far apart which was great. There were many locals and was pretty packed for a Saturday night. One thing I enjoyed about the restaurant was that they had TVs that had a slideshow of the food on the menu. I wish more restaurants had this to be honest since you can see what the food looks like before ordering. For food, we got the causa with tuna, pescado frito with avocado salad, lomo saltado, and chicha morada to drink. The causa was a nice appetizer although they do have bread too. The pescado frito was really nicely fried and the flavors were great. It was a big piece of fish for what it was priced at. I do wish the salad had some dressing, but they do bring some sauces on the side in the beginning so it wasn't that bad. The lomo saltado was pretty good. Huge portion with a side of rice. All in all, it was around $50 for two including tip. Pretty decent for the amount of food. I would definitely come back to try the Peruvian fried rice since it looked pretty good as well!

    I had the Lomo Saltado and it was very tasty. The stuffed avocado is a good starter. The green sauce accompaniment was a great compliment 😋 It's a BYOB and the staff is friendly 👌 I look forward to visiting again

    My Favorite Dish last night, we ordered spicy! Traditional Peruvian Ceviche! This classic dish is a perfect balance of tangy lime juice, pungent red onions, fragrant cilantro, and a mix of succulent calamari, shrimp, and scallops. The dish is beautifully presented, with the vibrant colors of the seafood contrasting with the bright green of the cilantro and the deep purple of the onions. Each bite is a burst of flavors and textures, with the sweetness of the scallops and shrimp perfectly complementing the chewy texture of the calamari. One of the things that sets La Kausa ceviche apart from other variations of the dish is the use of leche de tigre, a flavorful marinade made with lime juice, chili peppers, and other ingredients. The leche de tigre infuses the seafood with a bold, tangy flavor that really makes the dish sing. Overall, if you're a fan of seafood and you're looking for a dish that's packed with flavor and complexity, Traditional Peruvian Ceviche is definitely worth trying. With its perfect balance of sour, salty, and sweet flavors, it's a true culinary masterpiece that's sure to impress even the most discerning palate.

    LOVED IT! I ordered the ceviche de pescado and lomo Saltado and my husband ordered the papa a la huancaina and arroz chaufa. Large portions and delicious food. The service was great and staff was welcoming. We ended it with helado de lucuma. Perfect. Can’t wait to be back.

    Our first time in this restaurant and definitely not the last one, food was delicious, we could enjoy the freshness of every bite which makes a huge difference with other places. The whole place looks neat with a soft minimalist decoration and a Luis Miguel playlist made or lunch very enjoyable. Our server was very nice and helpful too.

    My last review 1-22 < had given a four < and am going to give the same a year later ... Though everything we had was good + it was missing the Umph to make me say 'i have to return' .... Price just right for neighborhood. Attention was very impressive (a5) .... Spacious to accommodate large parties... Atmosphere modern missing some pictures of the their region delights...
