Los Andes
Los Andes Restaurant
One of the city's highest-rated South American restaurants, serving both Peruvian and Bolivian dishes. The ceviche and roast pork hock are local favorites.
Located on Chalkstone Avenue, Los Andes ranks near the top of Providence lists on Yelp and Tripadvisor. The menu features both Peruvian and Bolivian dishes. From Peru there is citrus-cured seafood ceviche served in a martini glass, lomo saltado (stir-fried beef with fries), and the fried seafood platter jalea. From Bolivia there are salteñas (baked chicken and potato pastries), slow-roasted pork hock, and peanut soup. The pisco sour is the signature drink. The space is spacious and suits group dinners. Reservations can be made on OpenTable, and weekends are busy. Entrées run about $25–35, and the average spend per person is about $40–60. The restaurant is about 3 km from downtown, so driving or taking a taxi is recommended.
