We were pretty surprised to see picaronas on the menu since there were not many Peruvian restaurant having it nearby. Picarones was served hot and freshly made - we liked it. The pan con chicharrón was not bad, but it’s not the authentic Peruvian style that we liked, and we also feel that there needs to be more salsa criolla i.e. onion side salad in the sandwich to make it juicer and less dry. Overall, it’s a nice neighborhood eatery. For more fun stuff, follow me on IG miss_dawang
So so so delisioso! Got a Chicharrón sandwich and a beef empanada. Quick service and there was even a cute and very large llama to keep me company while I waited. As a part of La Cosecha, a portion of every purchase goes towards TECHO, an organization present in 19 Latin American countries seeking to end poverty for millions!
Find a better ceviche.....you wont, they use red snapper, everybody else uses cheap dirt tasting tilapia...Even though they voted for the blue socialistas in their gucci and prada like univision told them too, we all make bad mistakes in our lives to our wallet. However, you will not find better tasting chicken, yuca, sandwiches ANYWHERE HERE IN THE DC REGION..... Features: BLM AND THE MASKS WERE A SCAM....but a great place to eat
I really hate writing these types of reviews, especially for minority owned businesses. I've been here twice, so unless I've had COVID both times so my taste buds didn't work, for the life of me I can't understand why the chicken and rice have no taste? The chicken has no flavor, was dry, and I highly doubt it was seasoned. The rice was also dry and had no flavor. The microwavable Spanish rice bought at Giant or Whole Foods somehow tastes better than this. It's unfortunate, but please don't bother spending your money at this establishment. I will try and reach out to the manager for a full refund.
Tried Peruvian brothers for the first time and loved it! Ordered the ceviche, chicken empanadas and alfajores and was given a buzzer so I didn’t have to stand around and wait. Everything I ordered was delicious. Would definitely come back and try other menu items
I grew up eating Peruvian food. As far and I can remember, I can't recall a single time I didn't enjoy a Peruvian dish or meal - until I ate at Peruvian Brothers. I have patronized this establishment a half dozen times and sampled nearly every dish they offer. Not once has any of their dishes broken the plane of mediocrity. They've somehow managed the to make Peruvian bland and unappetizing - a feat I once thought impossible. Do not eat here. The food is over priced and objectively bad.
I love everything about this place and this location! Lots of space for social distancing, high ceilings, sanitizer stations everywhere, and all employees are in masks. Indoor and outdoor seating available for La Cosecha. But let’s talk food.... because that’s why we’re here. The beef empanadas are by far the best in the DMV. They are so FULL. The crust is never soggy. And their fillings are super flavorful. I highly recommend the picarones and chicken i also added a side of the fried yuca. This dish is only served on Sundays so don’t miss out! Picarones are a Peruvian dessert that originated in Lima during the viceroyalty. It is somewhat similar to buñuelos, a type of doughnut brought to the colonies by Spanish conquistadors. Its principal ingredients are squash and sweet potato and it’s served in doughnut form and covered with syrup/honey made from chancaca which is brought in from Peru at Peruvian Brothers. Chancaca is a typical Peruvian, Bolivian, and Chilean warm, sweet sauce made of raw unrefined sugar from sugarcane. It is often flavored with orange peel and cinnamon, and is consumed on sopaipillas or picarones. Follow me on Instagram for more @AlixtakesaBite
Their Power Bowl is superior! filling, healthy and i dont feel guilty after eating it all. Something new to change the boring salad routine. Along with the staff being super helpful for my dietary restrictions.
Very friendly folks, and awesome food. We've gotten empanadas and pan con chicharron from their food trucks, here at La Cosecha, and from their catering kitchen for events and they have been amazing every time. And the rocoto sauce is just the best- super spicy but also really flavorful. Highly recommend!
Love this place! Customer service is always zooming the get the food out quickly! Their ceviche and cusqueña beer is the perfect pairing after a long day and you need a pick-me-up! Keep up the good work!
