Do you like Lomo Saltado?
El Rocoto is the place. They do a Saltado 3 different ways and they all rock. The traditional with Angus Beef, one with Chicken, and Mariscos which is seafood. That seafood mix is really good with a mixture of shrimp, calamari, and even scallops on the shell.
The ambiance is really nice and the servers are all hustling to get you your food and drink. Some restaurants give you the chips and salsa, el rocotto gives you fresh bread with a sauce that is so delicious

El Rocoto is a true Peruvian gem! From the moment you sit down, you’re welcomed with warm bread and their signature aji sauces (the green one is addictive). We ordered the Lomo Saltado and the Sudado de Pescado, and both dishes were bursting with flavor—the beef was tender, the fish perfectly cooked, and the sauces had just the right balance of spice and tang.
The menu is extensive, featuring everything from fresh ceviches to traditional desserts like picarones. The restaurant has a casual yet cozy atmosphere, and the service is attentive without rushing you.
If you’re craving authentic Peruvian comfort food, this is the spot. Definitely coming back for the ceviche sampler next time!

First time eating Peruvian food, but not the last. Asked our server, Ingrid, for recommendations and she definitely hit a home run with us. We had a wonderful meal with enough food to feed an army. The food is absolutely amazing and Ingrid was kind, patient, and an amazing host. We will be back when we return to SoCal. If you are in Cerritos, do yourself a favor and earn here!

El Rocoto in Cerritos is our go-to spot for authentic and flavorful Peruvian cuisine. Every dish we’ve tried has been fresh, delicious, and served in generous portions, perfect for sharing or taking leftovers home.
The service is exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always welcoming. During our last visit, they went above and beyond by surprising my wife with a special birthday treat, making the experience even more memorable. Their cocktails are also fantastic and pair perfectly with the meal.
If you’re in the area and craving great Peruvian food, El Rocoto is a must-try. Highly recommended!

I came back to this place last night and this is 3rd time here and im glad the taste of the food and service and the ambiance were all the same as before , all fantastic! This is my favorite peruvian restaurant. I got the arroz con maricos and carne a lo poble . The rice is so good , well seasoned and flavorful with mixed of seafood.
The green sauce and orange sauce they bring from the beginning are perfect sauce to go with anything .
Since it was a Saturday night , its a little bit long to way in line but it was all worth it , and i wouldn’t mind to wait if the food is great .

Nice and friendly service. It’s average peruvian cuisine. The food and drink orders came out very quickly. TV on one side of you want to drink and watch the game. The other side is quieter to have personal conversations.

I guess we lucked out, arriving just after the lunch crowd, we were seated right away. Their food was spot on, I have been to several Peruvian restaurants & El Rocoto gets all the high marks! Cerviche Mixto was fresh with just the right amount of acidity – enough for 2 people to share. The anticucohs corazon was flavorful & tender, and their arroz con mariscos came with enough seafood with every bite. The wait staff were pleasant and checked on us several times. Highly recommend when you’re in the area

Well, the restaurant looks good, the presentation and design are nice. It’s full of people. The prices are on the higher side. So when you’re paying around $30 per a dish you expect the quality level that’s just not there. We got an “ahí de gallina” and it tasted like it was heated in the microwave. Also the chicken didn’t looked pulled but rather cut in a blender. It had a taste that you get tired of after a few bites. I had a “seco with beef” and the beef was undercooked and chewy with lots of nerves. But the portions were plentiful. So you get a lot of nice looking but mediocre tasting food for almost twice as much in price compared to other Peruvian restaurants.
