La Carreta Peruvian Restaurant 340 1200 South, Orem, UT 84058

"Very disappointing dinner. Nothing even close to authentic Peruvian food. Starting from the outside, it looks like it is closed; run down from the outside with broken sign. Going in, being served the chips from Costco that come from the brown paper bag, watered down salsa should have been our signal to leave. Authentic Peruvian places serve the cancha, not chips. The food, terrible. Old meat that is more appropriate for a stew, not a steak. The lomo soltado was stir fry with soy sauce. Just terrible. I have more hope in getting good food at Taco Bell vs here."

"Great foods: Aji de gallina, saltado mixto, chaufa mixto and #15. The appetizer with kebab of fish, steak and chicken was amazing. The shrimp tasted exquisite. The ceviche was just bad. Best drink was chicha morada. Good service."

"Cute restaurant that is a great place to get away from the typical choice of restaurants in the area. The food is flavorful and authentic. The service is very friendly. Don’t be in a hurry when you come here cuz all the food is made to order, so it takes a bit longer to get your food out- though it’s really not a long wait. The restaurant and restrooms are clean. The only disappointment was that the ceviche wasn’t spicy at all, even though I ordered the spicy. Still highly recommend this place."

"This is a nice diversion from the typical chain restaurants in the area. Don’t go if you are in a hurry and the service is relaxed and slower paced. The staff is friendly and helpful, especially if you are not familiar with Peruvian food. They have many choices. The food is served hot and comes out when it is ready so there is some delay. Enjoy and visit and eat in a relaxed pace. The kitchen is pretty open and is clean and orderly. The meal is served with chips and a very delicious salsa. Definitely a good visit."
