I love El Tayta! The atmosphere is super friendly as are the hostess. You must try pisco sour and the ceviche is excellent. I took my parents here and they loved trying the cuisine for the first time. Ivette is an amazing person to guide you to so many choices of the Peruvian Cuisine!

The best ceviche in Ft. Lauderdale/Hollywood area. Evette was a great server. We had to go back here a couple of times on our vacation it was so good. Can’t wait to come back one day.

The atmosphere was awesome, just the location in itself is amazing, my waitress was Camila, awesome, sweet and an amazing smile...attentive to my needs all the way through. The food though, the food is a whole new different level for me, a must to try when you come into this establishment and make sure you finish your meal with a "CORTADITO", Everything about this restaurant is on point !!!

The food at El Tayta is very good. The prices are good for the portions served. The service is excellent. I was served by the Ms. Azucena and could not have been happier. Great service.

Visited this restaurant for dinner, I ordered the Chaufa with seafood and an Inca Kola, the restaurant was clean and tidy. The decor had a lot of colors and shows a very unique Peruvian decoration. I was assisted by Camilia, her attentiveness and service was as always outstanding. As for the food it arrived fast and the chaufa had lots of seafood with a very tasty and rich flavor. I love to visit this plaza because there are a lot of things to do and plenty of parking. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Faig Huseynov

El Tayta Peruvian Restaurant exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The menu offered a wide variety of traditional Peruvian dishes. Another thing worth mentioning is their incredible sangria! It's the perfect complement to the meal, with just the right balance of flavors. And speaking of portions, they are incredibly generous. You'll likely end up with enough food to box up and enjoy at home, extending the delicious experience !!!

Roger Horn

Nice outside terrace area - they were very gracious when i asked for something a little off-menu - yellow rice, with fried shrimp, and a yellow spicy sauce on the side. Best mean i’ve had in Miami area in years - and that includes Brickell & South Beach! I will be back.

We appreciate your smile and your attentiveness.

Definitely a very delicious peruvian food, everything tasted so good and it had beautiful presentation. If you don’t know what to order try the 3 appetizers with Ceviche, rice with shrimps and fried calamari

Our experience at this restaurant was amazing! My husband and I, we travel a lot and love good food, but we are pretty picky. Every dish there was excellent, big portions and great price too. During our short vacation we went there twice. Usually we prefer to try different places, but instead we wanted to try more dishes at El Tayta. Waiters were very friendly, fun and attentive with us. Having a view at the beach and the palm trees was a big plus of course :). We recommend!

Nice food and great portions (we shared a ceviche and a jalea and still had a lot left over). The attention is superb, we especially like Asusena, who brought us extra waters and maiz while we waited for our taxi. The only thing to be aware of is that the tip is already included, so if you want to leave extra tip, it’s a great option, but it’s also something to keep in mind in case you are good with what’s already included in the check. We’ll back!

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at El Tayta, and it was largely thanks to our server, Azucena! She was incredibly attentive and friendly from the moment we sat down. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked on us at the perfect times, and had a genuine warmth that made the meal feel special. If you visit, ask for Azucena—she will take such good care of you!

Honestly, I thought this place was delicious. The food seriously hit the spot, and the staff were friendly. Price-wise, it’s pretty fair. It feels worth what you’re paying for. I don’t have any complaints, just a solid, enjoyable dining experience overall.

We ordered different dishes. I really liked the food. Everything was delicious. We liked the decoration. I don't eat too much, but my food didn't fill me. In my opinion, the portions are a little low related to the price. There is nothing special about service. We asked to change the drink cause it didn't taste good, maybe that's why the service wasn't good. We had to look for the waiters and asked for the staff we needed. We're ok with that, but the restaurant wasn't full. After all, my only reason to go back is their food.

Recently went to the restaurant with my little cousin and we were excited to try a new Peruvian spot since we are also Peruvians. We were welcomed and sat down fairly quick because the restaurant was empty. We ordered pollo la brasa and they told us they only had chicken breast. We were okay with that but the server wasn’t very pleasant. She did not seem happy and we felt it so it made the dining experience less enjoyable. The chicken lacked a bit of flavor and was dry (tasted like it was reheated) and the fries weren’t salted. We also had to hunt down a server for a refill on our cup of water. Food was okay but service wasn’t too pleasant. (Also a rat ran across of the entrance of the restaurant more than once). Will not be returning.

Once again, every Monday there is a very strong smell of fried onions and garlic that spreads throughout the surrounding buildings and gets into the ventilation system. The odor is extremely unpleasant and affects the comfort of residents. Please address this issue.

El Tayta disappoints - twice in one week!! First visit: $130 bill, very slow service, and our waiter vanished on a food delivery, left us unattended for 15 minutes. No one came to care for us and I had to flag someone down to order more drinks. Second visit: $90 bill, I asked our waiter if they really charged me for an ice tea refill and an aggressive owner comes to our table to argue with me. She made $3 on a $.05 refill and lost three good customers. BEWARE: Automatic gratuity, 3.5% card fee, and misleading and sneaky double-tip prompts at bottom of receipt to make some diners tip twice. Too many good Peruvian restaurants in the Hallandale Beach area to put up with decent food, horrible service, unscrupulous practices by an owner who takes out her personal problems on customers.
