This small Peruvian restaurant located in Rogers Park on Chicago's far north side serves many native dishes that taste the same as the food you would eat if you took a trip down to Peru in South America. The owner, Cesar Izquierdo, is a long-time immigrant from Peru who takes great pride in being able to serve up some of the best Peruvian foods found anywhere in Chicago. He just as proud of his homeland so when you eat here you'll find tons of posters and wall coverings that will educate you about the Peruvian nation and its culture.

The Taste of Peru restaurant has had many great reviews over its 11 year tenure - some of which are listed below. Currently, its fine Peruvian cuisine has benn given a great video review with a top rating on Check, Please! That's not bad for a little neighborhood place in a strip mall, wouldn't you say?

But what speaks the best of this restaurant's authenticity is the many Peruvian's who come here again and again and brag about how they've been very loyal customers since it opened, all because of Cesar's native Peruvian dishes. They say that when they are dining in his restaraunt it's just like they're eating their Mom's (or their Grandma's) great home cooking back in Peru!
