The Peruvian

About The Peruvian

Tucked into Edinburgh Street Food, this Peruvian spot works well for a family lunch that needs to be quick — service comes out fast, which matters when someone's patience has run out. The pork belly is the thing people come back for, sometimes three times in one trip, and it's usually ordered with sweet potato fries that soak up the juices. The curly fries and salchipapas get just as much love, and the green salsa has genuine fans. Lunch deals around £5–6 keep it affordable, and coeliac families will appreciate the separate fryer for gluten-free food. There's a kids' menu and high chairs. The staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. One snag: the lomo saltado is hit-and-miss — heavy on onion, and some have found the rice overcooked.
