One of our favorite Peruvian foods in the area. They make the best bistek a lo Pobre. They also make the best chupe de Camaron. It's a bit small but the service is fast. Always a delicious meal.

BEST AUTHENTIC PERUVIAN FOOD hands down. I thought I took more photos of our plates but honestly they were so yummy we all dove in and scraped our plates clean. We started with octopus for the table and if anyone knows about octopus, it's either a hit or miss. This octopus was a hit! Flavorful, cooked to perfection and overall delicious! We enjoyed Arroz Chaufa Mixto, Jalea and Tallarin Saltado. Pro Tip: : I ordered a second plate of octopus for myself and cut it up to put in my Tallarin Saltado with chicken, steak and shrimp. Hubby loved the ceviche (I'm prego so couldn't taste) and said it was some of the best he had. All the food tasted fresh, well seasoned and good quality. The portions are very generous and I feel like we got a great value for our evening. A true culinary experience we enjoyed. We went on a Friday night where we got to experience some pro Karaoke singers lol it made it fun and although it was dark with party lights, definitely still family friendly as I had my baby there.

On Saturday, we chose Oh Calamares to cater a party we were hosting. The owner: Jonathan, was very professional and did everything to ensure we were good-to-go. He also provided excellent suggestions to accommodate our group. We had steak tacos, rice, black beans, pernil, and every imaginable fixing. On the night of, they provided special dish-ware and assisted in setting up our serving area. Aside from that, all of the food was delicious! There was not a single complaint. All of our guests thought so too! Everyone was able to take home a to go lunch. My son especially enjoyed the salsa verde. We would definitely recommend Oh Calamares for any occasion. We cannot wait to go to dinner and try the restaurant. Thank you Jonathan. You are a true professional and know your business and you surely are one helluva gentleman.
