"Tu Casa is a family-friendly restaurant that provides fabulous Peruvian dishes and strong drinks. I love how spacious the environment is and how everyone on staff treats you like family. They truly are the best. Although I should have ordered a sangria, I actually got a passionfruit mojito. It was delicious and strong. Lol. My daughter got apple juice. I got the chicken empanadas as an app to have with my drink and it didn't disappoint. It was packed with chicken, the outside was nice and crispy, and it hit the spot. My daughter got the chicken tenders and fries which she tore up!! I ordered lots of entrees lol... the Tu Casa Pollo combo, entrana saltada, and pargo rojo. I don't regret any of it. The Tu Casa Pollo was seasoned very nicely and juicy. A true Peruvian roast chicken! Just super yummy. Don't forget to eat this with their homemade green sauce!! The steak in the entrana saltada was so juicy and tender. I loved dipping each one into the chimichurri sauce. It came with a lot of onions and peppers which I do not really consume like that but I'm not mad about it. Lol. The pargo rojo was absolute perfection... crispy skin and juicy meat. It was soooo good to eat with the onion and tomato salad on the side. Reminded me of eating fish the Filipino way!! I didn't finish all of this and ended up taking it home. : Then, for dessert, I simply got flan. And it was the perfect dish to cap off my meal with. Shout-out to Jenay for taking care of us at my table!!! She was a GEM and took care of all my needs on Mother's Day!!! I truly love Tu Casa for its food but also service. A plus is that it's a great place to celebrate any occasion at. I'll be back for more drinks and amazing Peruvian food."

"I don't usually venture out to Long Beach, but I'm definitely going to more often. I visited Corazon de Cuba on a Thursday night, it wasn't too busy but it wasn't empty. (We parked in the tiny lot across the street. The bartender seemed to be the only person there, from what I could tell, he was servicing the whole restaurant. He was exceptional. He greeted and sat us immediately and took our orders in a timely fashion. As someone who formerly worked as a bartender, server and a host- I really appreciate expedient and efficient service. He was really friendly and attentive to all of the guests. The drinks were extremely refreshing and well made. (We ordered a guava mojito and a guava margarita, so I was nervous about them being too sweet. As far as the food- it was as good as it looks. The balsita de yuca might have been the best guacamole I've ever had in a restaurant. (Usually I prefer to just make it myself. The plantain chips were light and crispy. The yucca frita bowl was heavier- but equally as delicious. I think it's delightful that the guacamole was served in something not only edible, but delicious. You really get to enjoy and appreciate every bit of the guacamole. The caserola de queso was exactly as you'd expect, melted cheeses served with a really yummy baked bread that had a very satisfying crunch. We were full after appetizers, but there was no way we were about pass on a perfectly executed Cuban, paired with sweet potato fries. I ordered the lechon asada, which is described as a succulent slow roasted pork. Honestly, there's no better way to describe it. The pork was cooked to perfection, paired with delicious rice and beans. The portions were appropriate, we left full and happy. I am definitely looking forward to coming back and trying so much more. Awesome job, Corazon de Cuba!"
