Second time coming here and just as great as I remember. Portions are adequate. Flavors and authenticity in the food are there. Staff were friendly, engaging and patient. Not a very large place but a good intimate size. Prices are fair. Good place for picky eaters. There’s something for everyone.

:Another good find on Thanksgiving 2025.
The atmosphere is calm. The food is fantastic. The service is on point. And if you need something, they do their best to accommodate. Overall, a great experience.

It has been awhile since I came here and lets just say everything was outstanding! A Pisco Sour is a must! The food was so delicious and flavorful that I had no complaint! My family and I were very happy customers with not only what we ate and drank but with the entertainment, the restaurant had. The ambiance were very chill and sophisticated, which I should have taken more pictures. Well, definitely for next time! See you guys soon!

When I’m looking for a dining experience La Candela hits it out of the park from start to finish. A beautiful and vibrant dining room with music keeping the night alive. The food, another level of delicious that is a rare find on Long Island. From my experience, Peruvian people are extremely proud of their food and culture, and La Candela is a prime example of how they express it. One of the best meals I’ve had in a very long time. The restaurant is extremely clean, everyone working is super friendly and the food is absolutely out of this world. The owner Delvin is touching tables and you can tell how much he loves his restaurant and all that is involved. Do not skip out on this incredible dining experience.

I’ve been here before and really enjoyed it, however, yesterday’s experience was mediocre. The causa was salty and most of the food came out room temperature and anyone who loves a tamal, knows that a cold tamal isn’t that great. The anticucho was very good. Thumbs up to that. The service was good. They were very attentive. The atmosphere was loud. The were projecting a concert with the sound on full blast. The dining room, though spacious only had a few tables. No need for the music to be so loud. Maybe we caught them on an off day.

Terrible experience at this restaurant. The food tasted good, but the service was awful.
When the waitress came to our table, she didn’t even offer us water and wasn’t attentive at all — we had to call her every time we wanted to order something else. The bill was extremely expensive, and they included the tip in the total even though we were only two people.
The restaurant only had a couple of tables occupied, so there was no reason for such poor service. As we were leaving (around closing time, but there were still people eating), they started vacuuming the carpets — very disrespectful, in my opinion. First and last time I go. I don’t recommend it! Don’t waste your money and your time!!

I had gift card for candela I called commack and they told me I had to go to Hicksville because this is where it was purchased. So when walked in, I made sure to ask them if I could use the gift card. It was a $100 gift card btw. So after I eat the waiter said to me that the gift card was not activated that I needed the receipt. And therefore I had to pay out of pocket despite having a gift card. The back of the card does NOT have an activation phone number or website..so how would in activate the card?!? They said to me that the person that bought the gift card had to come or the receipt. When a gift card is purchased, the person pays and the cashier automatically loads the card with cash balance. They are so slick. I will never come back here even if the food was good. BEWARE DO NOT purchase gift cards from la candela!! My coworkers wasted $100 for absolutely nothing!. El que mas tiene siempre se quiere dar de vivo

The employees are very courteous and welcoming. The menu is on the smaller side but the food was very good. The chicken was tasty and cooked perfectly, the sweet plantains were delicious. I especially enjoyed the chichi morada. We will go back.

The food is SPECTACULAR. If you’ve never had Peruvian food I highly recommend. The lomo is always a favorite. My personal favorites are the bistec a lo pobre and ají de gallina. Won’t be disappointed
