Machu Picchu

OMGGGGGGGG!!!!! So good !!!! This place felt like love !!!! Food was so delicious and authentic. Very unique and satisfying. Portions are huge and beyond a value for your dollar ( very affordable ) !!!! Not only could we eat here every day ... our server may have been THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE we’ve ever experienced in a restaurant!!!! She is a Gem to the establishment. Because of how well she treated me and my daughter Laila , This restaurant is my first choice in Tampa !!!! We LOVE this place, great environment ..... AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!

We have been going to Machu Picchu for a a while now and the food is always great and the service is excellent!! My wife is from Lima and she feels like home because the food is so good!! I would recommend Machu Picchu to anyone that wants really good Peruvian food!! Also, Americans need to try Peruvian food as it is one of the best foods in the world.

Food is delicious here and portions are huge! When I’m craving ceviche pescado, this is where I go!!! I love it! I do have one complaint though. I realized I didn't get my credit card back after I paid one time, and no one would answer my call on Sunday when I called to ask during business hours. They are closed on Mondays so I couldn't check for it on Monday. I called on Tuesday, and the lady hung up on me. I was only asking if they had my credit card! They were very rude and not helpful at all. There is a language barrier, but instead of trying to understand, she hung up on me which was really crappy. I still come here because I love the food and service is usually good.

What really impressed me with the chaufa was the texture of the rice. The firm bite of each grain was a sign that they used the right kind of rice: old rice. Fresh rice has too much moisture to make good fried rice so the chef knows their stuff. In addition, the portion was gargantuan, and I had enough left to be dinner at night. There's also a good amount of well cooked seafood mixed into it. You definitely get your money's worth. If anything could improve, the rice could have more wok hei. I think the issue is that there's just too much stuff and sauces in the wok. If there was less rice and less soy sauce, the wok might be able to sear in more flavor. I would be ok with compromising some of the portion size to make it more delicious.

Delicious! Best Peruvian food in town!! Small but authentic! Fresh and healthy! My daughter used to work at another Peruvian place from where the cooks are now running this place... She speaks very highly of them... All women (no men... sorry guys...) running the kitchen... Try the ceviche and fried calamares... YUMMY! Price is right too! Only thing is, you can never get them on the phone... Must stop by... Closed on Mondays I think, better check first, but whatever you do... CHECK IT OUT! You'll be glad you did.
