While it’s not fancy, it’s simple and straightforward. Contigo Peru specializes in seafood dishes, likely indicating that the owners are from Lima. The menu features some popular dishes like lomo saltado and pollo a la brasa, but it lacks others such as choclo con queso and aji de gallina, one of my personal favorites that my wife and mother-in-law prepare perfectly. Additionally, the menu offers some Mexican dishes, perhaps as a nod to the large Spanish-speaking community in Atlanta. I ordered the chupe de pescado, a flavorful fish chowder.

It was quite peaceful during the weekday, which added to the comforting, homey atmosphere inside. The food arrived quickly, and it was fresh and delicious. Each meal comes with a broth that features a fantastic sauce to enjoy as well. The prices for Peruvian food in Atlanta are reasonable, too.

Good service; not so good eating, no great ambiente. live your own experience. read more Good service; not so good eating, no great ambiente. live your own experience.

I tried the seafood ceviche, and it was fantastic. I'm sure Hunter Brinkmann would enjoy it, even if he traveled all the way from Hamsterdam.

I found myself quite thirsty that evening. The food tasted good, I suppose.
