Favorable reviews brought us to “The Heights” of Jersey City in search of a Perúvian meal. Upon first inspection, only a Perúvian flag suggested we would find one. Otherwise, In keeping with its name, the place resembled a pizzeria—which it is, inter alia.
More than the owner’s assurances, the plates that soon arrived at our table—causa limeña, papás a la Huancaína, tamal, and alfajores—erased any doubts about the kitchen’s commitment to producing good food: Perúvian, Italian (-American?), and in a few cases, a combination of the two. “Fusion” at *Ragazzo* (including pizza topped with lomo saltado) seemed thoughtful and well executed, though we did not venture into that wing of an interesting and surprisingly deep menu.
Alongside such experiments, connoisseurs of Perúvian food will find typical dishes such as chorros a la Chalaca—a nod to the chef’s hometown, El Callao—lomo saltado, bistec con tallarínes verdes, a variety of ceviches, etc.
One caveat: one might expect coffee in a restaurant called Ragazzo, but there was none to be had, only tea. Given the quality of the food, hardly a dealbreaker.

I recently had an amazing dinner at Ragazzo, a unique Peruvian and Italian fusion restaurant. The combination of cuisines might sound unusual, but it works perfectly.
I highly recommend the Tallerine Verde with steak. The steak was seasoned perfectly and had a great smoky, grilled flavor that paired wonderfully with the creamy green pasta. We also tried the Lomo Saltado, which was equally impressive. The flavors were bold and the meat was incredibly tender.
The portions were generous, the prices were fair, and the food was truly flavorful. Ragazzo is a fantastic spot for anyone looking for a great meal.

My husband was craving pizza after a work trip and the staff were extremely accommodating when we had a mix up between a pollo saltado pizza and a pollo saltado rice plate, and changed our takeout order to dine-in. They were so thoughtful to make us a personal sized pollo saltado pizza on the spot for my husband (so delicious and fresh, crispy undercarriage on the bottom, so perfect!) and give us silverware and plates to enjoy our meal. Thank you so much for the kind and warm hospitality and delicious dinner!

Exceptional meal! The ceviche was incredibly fresh, with bright citrus notes enhancing the delicate seafood. The steak had a perfect char, locking in its juices, while the pasta was rich, velvety, and perfectly seasoned. Quality ingredients, expertly prepared—highly recommend!

Absolutely 10/10 service, food, and pricing! Honestly, as a Peruvian I feel ashamed to say I don’t like ceviche BUT clearly I haven’t had good ceviche, because I love theirs! The choufa is amazing as well! Our server was super nice, and helped us out with directions. I can’t recommend this place enough honestly

Both their Peruvian and Italian dishes are delicious!!! Took photos after half eating the dishes because it was so good! The ceviche is amazing. The sauce is amazing. And the pesto they use for their linguini is amazing. Can’t wait to order from here again!!!

I usually order from this place, as I like thier food, but today I was very disappointed. I ordered food as I was not feeling well. The tracker the store provided showed me a delivery in progress that came straight to my home but no food was delivered. So, there was a mishap with the order/delivery. These things can happen and I’m a very understanding person but the situation was not handled professionally. Instead of coming to a resolution the person hung up the phone on me when I called to ask about it.That was extremely rude. Good resturants are known for good service and good food. So, I take away my former 5 star as a result. Its sad you would treat your loyal customers that way.

Very good pizza, with a delicate, crisp crust. Lovely, friendly, happy individuals work there. They also broke a hundred-dollar bill for me, when I didn’t purchase anything there that day. Highly recommend.

My family and I came to eat here. Wow! We have been to many Peruvian restaurants, and this one is definitely one of the top restaurants. We had the pollo saltado, arroz chaufa, and ceviche. Everything was excellent!
