Great food.
It’s always interesting trying new places. This is a food truck parked at the edge of the Orion gas station. There is a seating on the far side of the truck, but we had decided to get takeout.
Portions were adequate and it made a good dinner for both of us. We had the chicken fried rice and the beef saltado. To make something like chicken and rice, two mundane ingredients, stimulating to the palate it takes skill. The same goes with the stirfry beef. Thankfully, the skill was there and each dish had a unique flavor. And that is, of course, what makes the place special. The passion and skill in producing the food from everyday ingredients.
I would definitely recommend this place and I look forward to going back and trying other dishes.

Not gonna lie, Peruvian Chicha Fusion was a random-but-worth-it stop.
It’s basically a food truck posted up in front of a gas station, but I was literally getting gas, saw it, and decided to try it because I was hungry. I planned to take it to-go, but the man working was super friendly and suggeated dine in. Turns out they’ve got tables in the back, so I ended up dining in, and it was actually a cool little setup.
Now the food:
Yucca sticks — 5/5. Crispy, hot, and straight-up addictive. He gives you three sauces: one spicy and two that are more like creamy/mayo-chili vibes (not spicy), and all of them hit.
Lomo Saltado ,really good, but one weird thing. The flavor was magnificent , the rice was solid, fries were great, and the overall taste was on point. The only thing: at first the meat was kinda chewy for the first few bites, and I was thinking “damn….” But then after like the 4th piece, it got super tender, like a completely different texture. So I don’t know what happened there ,I got both worlds in one plate. Still delicious though.
Overall, the flavors are legit and the service is what really makes it. The man was welcoming, attentive, and just genuinely cool.
4.5/5 — very good food, even better vibes.

One of my favorite places to eat in Sarasota. I order food from here at least once a week. All their sauces are delicious. I always order the sautéed beef spaghetti. If you mix in the green garlic mayo, and the red rocoto sauce, it is absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend this Dish.

Absolutely amazing empanadas! Affordable too. I get a couple of them a week, and they never disappoint. Grab a cold Inca Kola while you’re there too, very refreshing!

This food truck is an absolute gem. The food is full of authentic Peruvian flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked fresh. Everything we tried was delicious, especially the meats—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The portions are generous, prices are fair, and the service is friendly and welcoming. You can really tell they put love and pride into their food. If you’re craving real Peruvian cuisine on the go, this place is a must-try. Highly recommended!

Worth the wait. Eduardo is a great chef and host. I was losing my faith in Sarasota. I have been revived. I had a beef patty and 6 piece chicken wanton. Delicioso. Red and green sauce poppin. Should have taken a pic but I’m greedy. I’ll show evidence. Peace out! Love on each other cause we all we got.

Don’t go any further** This food truck is brought to us by a man who puts his heart into this and loves to cook. Just wow the food blew my mind! I had the wonderfully tender and perfectly prepared Hawaiian Burger, potato Huancaina, and the desert – guargueros – seasoning was just right and quality of food, superb. Every bite was a trip into a magically tasty food fusion extravaganza . I’m hooked! Thank you Eduardo!
