Kausa

“A great experience overall. The food was really good, the server was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food took a bit to come but totally worth the wait. A great place to relax and enjoy your meal. We ordered the tuna ceviche to start. We loved the taste but not for someone that does not like taste of lime. The Covina a lo Macho was amazing. Great for someone who likes a medley of sea food in a single dish. Our parents ordered the Salmon Quinotto and that was great too. Portion sizes are pretty decent and shareable if u also ordered an appetizer. Do leave some space for dessert!!”

“Overall rating: 4.8 Paid: $38 w/ tip (total 2x) I was a bit hesitant of this place because I Love Peru - but wow it delivered. I honestly can’t remember what I got but the food was delicious. I even had a drink and the total amount was really affordable. The cake was also soo tasty, def leave room for dessert. Highly recommend!”

“The food was excellent. I had the Salmon Norteño! easily a 10/10 and the Lomo Saltado, which was a strong 9/10. The cocktails leaned lighter on the alcohol, which can be good or bad depending on your preference, but they were still delicious and well-balanced in flavor. Mind you I'm usually very picky, but i loved everything I was seeing on that menu! Definitely coming back here again!!”

“I like Peruvian food because they have great flavors. Found Kausa between my meeting place and hotel, and noticed they have a nice collection of Ceviches. Staffs are very friendly and the decor is nice. I ordered the seafood mix ceviche for appetizer and the shrimp on rice for entree. The ceviche was very refreshing, packed with flavor, citrus and some heat. Seafoods were nicely prepared, not chewy or mooshy. The shrimp over rice was packed with flavors, kind like a coconut curry, nicely done.”

“My wife and I decided to try Kausa to see how good this Peruvian restaurant really is. Unfortunately, our experience was mixed and left us with a lot to think about. I ordered the Trío Marino. The arroz con mariscos was actually good and probably the best part of the dish. The ceviche was also fresh and flavorful. The chicharrón de pescado was not bad either, but what really surprised me was that the plate came with fries. I love fries, but honestly, fries do not belong in a traditional Trío Marino. I have never in my life in Peru seen a Trío Marino served with fries. For me, that combination simply does not match and feels completely wrong for a classic Peruvian seafood dish. It may sound dramatic, but for a Peruvian food lover, that is almost a sin. My wife ordered the sirloin steak medium well, but unfortunately it arrived almost raw. That was disappointing, especially considering how simple it should be to get the cooking temperature right. Now, to be fair, there were also very positive things about this place. First of all, after living in New York for more than 20 years, this is honestly the first Peruvian restaurant where I could actually hear authentic Peruvian música criolla playing in the background. That gave the restaurant a very warm and nostalgic atmosphere that I truly appreciated. Another highlight was our waiter, Carlos. He was very attentive, friendly, professional, and constantly checked on us to make sure everything was okay. Great service from him and the overall environment was nice and welcoming. Overall, the ambiance and service were very good, but the food quality and some questionable choices in the dishes made the experience disappointing for us.”
