Clean, large restaurant serving authentic Peruvian food. Lomo Saltado and pollo Saltado great portions!

Perfect hidden place for Peruvian food.They give you bread and butter to start off with. I ordered the lomo saltado, while my friends got pollo saltado and both were so delicious! Portions were large enough and I definitely want to come back again to try their other dishes. It's a small place so customer service is pretty consistent.
Came back for the tallarin saltado de polloand it was also super good! -

Holy Toledo! My coworkers just discovered Parrilla's Cholito/
Authentic Peruvian cuisine that's so Refreshing like Mojitos//
No chico, this place is Pretty pricey; Not for broke cheapos/
I just wish the Portions were more Handsome(like me)...Bonito//
Good food Porn, but "More Bang for the buck" is AL's motto/
I spent $20 after tax & tip for an Inka Cola & Lomo Saltado!//
'Twas very tasty, especially with their Green sauce = Aji Verde/
But I've had much better beef; No Cap = Good Hair Day//
Out of the handful of places this Asian fellow's tongue has tried/
I would have to score this place an Inka Cola...Yellow Number 5// -

I yelped for yet another different spot for lunch. So, Jimmy Z and I headed out to Parrilla's as I noticed really good reviews for the place.
Atmosphere:
The decor inside is of a typical mom and pop restaurant. Several tables, TV's, 1 Waitress helping the entire place, etc. Artwork on the walls is pretty cool. There is parking in this small plaza, or you can park on the street.
Service:
There was only one waitress servicing the entire restaurant. She took our order, delivered us complimentary rolls for time pass, got us drinks, brought our food, napkins, dessert, check, etc. She had a friendly efficiency about her.
Food:
We had the following:
Steak $14.99
Loma Saltado $12.75
Inka Kola $2.00
Mazamarro Morada and Arroz Con Leche $3.50
Total with taxes came to $36.00
Steak was good. Rice was dry, and not good. Adding copious amounts of their sauce got the rice to an edible condition.
Jimmy Z polished off his Loma Saltado pretty easily. He liked it.
Inka Kola was refreshing.
Mazamarro Morada and Arroz Con Leche were delicious (+2). The dessert and service are the reason for this five star review.
Complimentary rolls and their 2 sauces are pretty good.
Overall, other than the rice, I had an excellent Peruvian meal at this place. I recommend. -

As a Peruvian born and raised, I totally approve of this place. The food is consistent, always same portion and delicious flavor. The prices are not bad either
