10/10It was even better than I expected, great food, an authentic ambiance, very friendly people and good range of peruvian dishes, including Picanteria Arequipeña, a must if you like spiciness. Definitely would be coming again when in Paris.

6.5/10This was our third visit, in our first two times the food was excellent, this time we ordered lechon which was dry and not as tender as it should be and the shrimps in the chupe rubbery mostlyb ecause of being overcooked pity. Do they have a new chef?

6/10The food was OK, the service was good. Unfortunately, it was not good enough to return. The restaurant was understaffed and we had to wait a long time to receive our food. We also never received our chosen dessert as it was not ready yet. The server apologized and did the best she could. The restaurant is gluten-free friendly.

10/10Excellent food, warm and helpful service, home-y ambiance. Best Peruvian restaurant I've tried in Paris (so far). The "trilogias" make it easy to try multiple dishes - would recommend going for these.

7.5/10The decoration and ambiance is great but the three little pieces of food I took (ceviche) were very tiny. 20 Euros for sample of food rather than small portions is a bit unfair.

7/10The food at this little restaurant is quite good, with some local Peruvian dishes. The lady who was serving us is very welcoming. However the service was very slow. Even though it was a wednesday at noon and the restaurant was at around 40% of capacity (not more), we had to wait a lot of time to be served our lunch, and the desert as well.

8.5/10Great food way beyond my expectation. The only problem was that there was only one server and she didn't speak any English (the menu is in Spanish and French)

5/10Service very slow even if we were the only once in the restaurant. The meat was hard and had a taste of old and the sauce was extremely full of vinegar that I couldn’t eat it. The octopus was very good though! The lamb ragout was too “acid” as my boyfriend defined it. Not my favorite restaurant and based on the rating I would have expected much better and that’s why maybe I was so disappointed.

7/10The place seems quite authentic and the dishes are quite nice and well flavored. At the same time the service was not super fast and then there was a mistake in a bill.

9.5/10This restaurant came highly recommended and I was not disappointed. Excellent cuisine with prompt service. The restaurant seems small, but they were able to store our 2 carry-on suitcases as well as 2 strollers of families that were eating there. It's in a great neighborhood. My only small "complaint" was the table was very wobbly and I like it better when restaurants also change silverware when you change courses. Doesn't matter, I'll still go back!

10/10We just had a great lunch at Picaflor. You have to start with the Pisco Sours! The empanada and Pulpo are both excellent starters. We really liked the Aji de Gallina (moist chicken breast in a creamy Parmesan sauce) and the Seco de Cordero (a delicious lamb stew with carrots and cilantro). The rice was perfect and we had a nice Chilean red wine too. We didn't have room for any dessert! The service was friendly and professional and the ambiance was warm and friendly. It was easy to have a conversation. We will come back again soon!

10/10El Picaflor has delicious, authentic Peruvian cuisine. I know my Peruvian food as I’m from Lima and I’m always on the look out for good Peruvian food. The Ceviche was just like it should be, mouth-watering, fresh quality ingredients and good size portions. The menu has a lot of variety, we also had the Anticucho & Lomo saltado. There is an excellent-value 3 course menu for 28€ as well as other menus, including a children’s menu & of course A la carte. We had Pisco sours and chicha morada, also great! The service was fast, friendly and efficient. We loved it and will be back!

9.5/10Very good restaurant (the Ceviche de Pato is amazing), fair price, and a very good service. Some tables are not well located in such a way that you may have not too much space to move your arms if you are big as me. So take care when choosing. In general, I really recommend this place!

9.5/10Amazing starters and main dishes in a cozy restaurant close to the metro. Also a great selection of Peruvian drinks and South American wines. The staff is extremely kind and friendly. The dessert was the only thing that was a bit dry, but the rest of the food was incredible. Loved it! ❤️

9.5/10A modest room for sure. But the staff are warm and welcoming. The food is perfection of the Peruvian style. We only had ceviche and I love their version. Fantastic value. The drinks were sweeter than I prefer so next time I'll go with beer. And I look forward to it. Superb cuisine.

8/10It is a Peruvian restaurant with Parisien portions!... Food is really, good, real Peruvian food. However, portion are very small compared to the price (20€ one small portion of ceviche). I did my reservation in "the forchette" and they said I have 30% of discount. We had a drink before started and between 3 we had 80€ account... But at the end the owner said that if we didn't had the dessert we couldn't have de 30% of discount. That was very annoying, because we never read that in the conditions. If you want to play like that you should specify in the reservations. It hasn't nice bc in Paris I near had this problem before.
