This place is SO GOOD. Super flavorful and authentic. I had the mar y Tierra chaufa and it was nothing short of amazing. We are from Temecula area and I will absolutely be making the drive back here just for this food. The service was wonderful as well, friendly, welcoming and super attentive. I wish I got a better photo but I started scarfing it down the second it got to the table and I tasted it lol. I’d give them 10 stars if I could!

Had a great experience with my family. Restaurant is family run and you can tell the dedication they put into their work. It was my first time trying Peruvian food and the waiter made excellent recommendations. The food was amazing, well seasoned, fresh. Overall amazing experience. When we told the waiter we came for my birthday he immediately brought out some Alfajores on the house which were to die for... HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SPOT... Best Peruvian food in San Diego

We do a monthly dinner with friends to catch up and stay connected. This time we picked Al Toque and wow, what a great choice. The food was flavorful, fresh, and had us passing plates around to try everything. But honestly, what really stood out was the service. Randy was our waiter and he absolutely elevated the experience. He was genuine, attentive, and you could tell he loves what he does. When the food is this good and the service makes you feel like family, it’s more than a meal, it’s a memory. Definitely a place we’ll all be returning to.

This place was outstanding!l Not only was the food exceptional the service was top tier. I truly enjoyed my whole experience there. All the guys who work there are some of the most down to earth, kind, humble and fun guys. We laughed and enjoyed ourselves, I really felt welcomed like if I was one of them. You can definitely believe I will be back. I highly recommend this place!

One of the best new eats around SoCal for sure! My new favorite Peruvian restaurant no doubt! Just walking in you're greeted with the most welcoming faces and atmosphere! The chicha was super refreshing the sauces were flavorful! The first bite of the calamar frito with the side salad was so fresh tasting with the perfect saltiness and crunch! The Lomo Saltados didn't differ as it was cooked perfectly! Fired were crunchy like I like them, the beef was medium rare, the vegetables were cooked too perfection with still a little bit of crunch. Will most definitely come back again and bringing the whole family!

My first ever Peruvian ceviche experience and it was magical. The food was fresh and beautifully prepared, the owners were welcoming, attentive and generous to all the guests. I will be a repeat customer and already planning to take friends and family to check it out. Delicious food and great vibes.

Had the best night with friends at Al Toque. It was our monthly get-together and this spot was the perfect choice. The food was phenomenal, from the appetizers to the main dishes. You can taste the love in every bite. The team there made us feel so welcomed. It’s not often you get food and service at this level. Randy was the best. We’ll be back soon.

We don’t have pictures of other food because we were hungry and devoured it. The food here was a solid 10/10. Extremely flavorful and nice and hot when it arrived at the table. There was one guy waiting the entire restaurant, yet service was smooth and quick. At 34 weeks pregnant, it’s hard to find food that checks off all boxes and they did exactly that. I hope this restaurant is here to stay for years to come!
