First of all my family and I got in and the place was smelling tabaco really bad so the waitress open the door. Second we order some ceviche the price was really high I think 16 dollars for small dish and we'll my dad order some fish fried but he didn't like the grease from oil was inside of the fish.. gross. Don't even know and the white rice was like from yesterday. And the worst of all was my dish shrimp with rice I found a large piece of hair inside of the rice. Absolutely disgusting. I told the waitress that we found a hair and she just say omg why you didn't tell me??? I was like are you serious and then ask for the bill and charge me the dish with the hair. Would not recommend it to anyone. Not going back to this restaurant anymore. Even if it was for free.

The place sucks!!! Horrible service & food was not good at all!!!! The waitress added her own tip, we had to get up an get our own water. Save your time and money.

Well, this was a weird night... we found Contigo but were confused that it had such a glowing bright OPEN sign yet there were no cars in the ample parking lot. It was 8-ish so not really late or anything. So we hesitantly entered the restaurant to be faced with a vacuum cleaner, about where you would expect to see a greeter of some kind. We had a chance to look around at what is a pretty large space with lots of seating and a nice big bar... that was completely empty. We probably would have left but we had a Google Offer to use and just then a young lady came out and greeted us. She turned out to be really helpful and even let me practice my Spanish with her when I ordered. Having been to Peru recently and spent time with a family in Arequipa I wasn't too intimidated by the long menu. Although, due to the lack of other people in the establishment, I decided not to order cerviche (not sure but the lack of other people made me wonder if they had a bunch of fresh fish just waiting about in the restaurant kitchen, and if so, how fresh would it be?). But... we did order the anticuchos for appetizer (beef heart kebabs with sauteed onion and potato) which was lovely. I know my husband wasn't entirely convinced but saw my excitement when I saw it on the menu so went along with it. It was slightly chewy, which i never experienced in Peru, but it was cooked wonderfully and we ate the whole plate up. Then my husband, who had wanted the bistek a lo pobre (because of the huevo frito - fried egg) found out he could have the fried chicken steak with a fried egg as a side, and ordered it excitedly. He ate that whole thing down, now unbothered by the lack of other customers. I had the Saltado de Camarones (stir friend shrimp with tomatoes, onions and other veggies over fries - but not fries, more link crinkle cut English-style chips, with rice). It was lovely - we both tried each others' dishes and almost licked our plates clean. My husband tried the Inca Cola and is now sad its not on the soda drink shelves at Kroger. I knew he'd love it. Great food, and I suspect at a more busy time, it would have a great ambiance too. The music and decor was good. I'll be back.

I can't give this place a 5 star due to the decor. Outdated and a little dingy but don't hold it against them. I've been there for lunch twice. The waitress doesn't speak English will so it made it hard to get details about the food. My friend and I decided on the fried rice (Chaufa), Mussels with diced onion, cilantro & lime juice. Mexican shrimp cocktail. OMG! delicious and the portion sizes are huge. The meat dishes can be a little salty if you are watching your salt intake.

Excellent and authentic Peruvian food. Don't be intimidated by the place, you won't find a more authentic place anywhere else.

This place has low quality and nasty food at a high prices. Service is also poor. Our server was more interested in having loud phone conversations than taking care of her tables. We were on mood for Peruvian food and found this restaurant on yelp am gave it a try. Showed up at 7pm an place was empty and sketch but decided to experience it. To start out with the menu had had Pisco Sour in the menu we ordered 2 to only to find out they dont have them. Ordered Papa a la huacaina, sauce was runny and mediocre at best. Lomo saltado was made with stir fried meat not very fresh nor authentic and the ceviche of pescado was so spicy it was uneatable and no canchitas were served with it. Although the menu had other dessert menus they only had Alfajor available, the most disgusting Alfajor I have ever encountered. I would suggest saving your money and go To abother restaurant. FYI the charge gratuity on all check for low quality service.

We came here at 845pm and it looked super sketchy getting here, but the food was awesome! I only knew a little bit of Spanish, but I knew enough to be able to communicate with the awesome server :P. It helped my friend knew Spanish though haha. I tried a traditional drink made of corn called chicha morada and it was sweet and tasted awesome. My friend got a carbonated version of it and I thought it was cool how my drink was purple. We tried the mixtos ceviches ($16) and the bistec lo pobre. Amazingggg! The ceviche was really fresh with octopus, mussels, shrimp, and calamari. It had fresh lemon, onions, and lettuce. It was excellent! I was craving ceviche too. The bistec was also awesome! The meat was a little rough, but full of flavor with every bite. I liked the egg and the rice. I could have done without the little salad on the side though since I just had some ceviche. They were playing Peruvian music that was familiar from one of my good friend's parties and they had Univision on several TVs which would be great for a soccer game. Loved this place! Only complaint was it was a little more expensive than I expected.

I really wanted my friend to try Ecuadorian food but the place was closed; so bummed about that, but we were hungry so we decided to get Peruvian food instead. At first the area around the location looked very sketch but you should never judge a book by it's cover haha the actual restaurant looked very nice on the inside, with a bar and a couple of big TVs showing soccer of course (rolls eyes) and they were playing música chichera. The waitress was very attentive and patient with us, for drinks I got an Inca Kola and Ravi got chicha morada, the chicha was very tasty and delicious. For entrees we decided to share Ceviche Mixto and Bistec a lo Pobre, the ceviche was amazing, from the shrimp to the octopus and everything else in between it was just delicious. The Bistec was really good too, but this particular dish is so typical in all of Latin America; maybe with different names depending on which country but same exact concept everywhere, so I wasn't that impressed by it and I think I had a different idea of what it was. Honestly I can make that on a normal weekday at home at anytime. That is probably one complaint I have and also it was expensive for a dish like the Bistec at least in my opinion, other than that it was a great experience and enjoyed watching my friend enjoy the food so much :)

Too pricey fir the quality of food you get. I order a Jalea mixta which was fried in old oil so the Jalea came out black and burned. Not very tasty. The chaufa Pollo was good. Not complains on this one. Service was really bad, There was only 2 extra tables so it was not busy at all, we tell the server we wanted a Papa a la Huancaina as an appetaizers and we have to wait for 30 minutes until the rest of the food came out. I been to the best peruvian restaurants in Miami and this cannot comete against them, And guys... Is really pricey. I may come back to try their Seafood in a different style...

This resturant is amazing , I recomend eating the papa a la huancaina , lomo saltado, and cheviche

Food was good but the service was terrible! We were attended by a lady who claims is from Guatemala, she overcharged us for a couple huancaina sauce portions $5.95 each portion without the yucas that were $4 per portion so just that simple appetizer was more expensive than any plate already ($9.95) and then the yucas were not cooked enough so when we asked her politely to fry them a little more she gave us a face. Terrible attitude!! Worst thing came with the bill, she added her 15% service calculating her tip after taxes and when we made the claim claiming that that was illegal she just said that that's the way they've always done it which is totally illegal and inadmissible so when we asked for the owner she said he wasn't there and then overcharged us again when she printed the credit card transaction she made an overcharge of $0.50 that is nothing but is still wrong!!! We told her she was still charging an extra $0.50 so again with an attitude opened her cash register and gave us the $0.50 in cash because she had no choice!! The owner should fire this lady because she's really not the kind of person who should be dealing with people who ask for a good service and pay for it, that really makes customers feel like never going back to that place!!! So baaaaad!!

I've seen this place many times while driving to Chinatown in Atlanta. I was on a Peruvian kick, and wanted to try some different places, so I searched Yelp for local Peruvian restaurants. Contigo Peru popped up, and I figured I would give it a shot. I remember walking in and thinking the place looked dead, a sign that maybe the food wasn't very good. It was later in the evening, so I can understand the post-dinner lull. Either way, I wasn't going to be denied my stomach! I ordered the seafood and rice dish. When it came out, I nearly fell out of my chair! The portion was HUGE!!! There was a big mountain of seasoned rice in the middle, with assorted seafood scattered around the mountain. Shrimp, calamari, clams, mussels, and some squid mixed in with the rice. Overall, the food was pretty tasty, and generous! You know it's a good place when I started this review with 3 stars, and as I think back on the food I had, looked at the picture on my phone of what I ordered, my stomach strong-armed my brain into giving the place an extra star!! Oh... and it totally looks and feels like a dive place!! Bonus points for the cheesy decorations! :D

I had a pretty bad experience here, girlfriend mentioned contigo's reviews here as we were headed to the other peruvian restaurant which name i wont mention here. We were closer to contigo so we drove there. When we arrived there were only a handful of people, the ecuador vs honduras game was on, so it was pretty quiet, with the exception of the soccer commentators. anyway, we sit, order a bandeja, and a michelada, the place was as clean as you'd expect a bar/restaurant to be. food comes, and it is a bandeja which has hot dog sausages, and other meats. I wasn't expecting to have hot dogs topping a $27 plate, but oh well. I noticed there were no sides with the food, mention to waitress. She said that the plate came with no sides. So i ordered a side of rice, and a side of beans. We eat the food, the beef was ok, the chicken had a ton of pepper on it, and the pork chop was half fat, half pork.. I then remember having seen something about cassava included in the plate. When i ask the waitress again, she goes to the cook, comes back and said the cook must have been distracted by the game (mind you, this is the reason i ordered rice & beans in the first place... because i though, or she said that the plate didn't come with anything as a side). once i get the bill, they charge me $4 for a cup of rice, $4 for a cup of beans... total for everything $54. which seemed kind of high, paid, left a 10 percent tip (since the service was lousy).. When we drive off, i do the math and realize they overcharged me by $10. I call the restaurant, and mention to the waitress that i was overcharged $10, she says that a 15% gratuity is included in the bill. I would have liked to have known this when the bill was handed to me. I will never ever eat here again. I think this place really caters more as a bar for drunk people, and they take advantage of that.

Totally found this place on yelp . In the mood for Peruvian food and thought we'd give this place a try. Looks like a hole in the wall. Nobody was there on a Saturday. Well, our group had the chaufa De pollo. Ceviche de marisco. And the quesadilla de pollo. All meals were very good. One of our people said the cevichewas the best he had. The service was good. Price was right. I recommend.

Peruvian food in Atlanta?! There aren't many places so I YELPED it and Contigo Peru popped up. My friend and I had plans today and were in the mood to try Peruvian food since neither of us has had it before. As we pulled into the parking lot, there was only one car parked there. We were a bit alarmed since it was around 12 p.m. for lunch time. As expected, we entered and the place was pretty empty besides one occupied table. The two workers in the front greeted us in Spanish and were very welcoming. We were seated, menus given, and water brought out. The ambient was pretty chill, but could've been more "festive" if there had been more customers. FOOD: My friend and I concluded seafood is the specialty here. I mean, we saw it advertised under the restaurant sign walking in. The menu is pretty extensive with items such as: ceviche, tacos, quesadillas, rice entrees, battered/fried seafood, etc. We stayed away from the "fried" stuff although our waiter suggested ONLY fried items/entrees for us to try. We ended up getting rice entrees that focused on Peruvian style marination/spices. My friend ordered #78 - Arroz con Mariscos (Peruvian style stir-fried seafood with rice) and I ordered #79 - Picante de Mariscos (Mild saucy stir-fried seafood with rice). Both entrees consisted a lot of vegetables, shrimp, squid, octopus, and a few mussels. It did take a good while before our entrees came out and it wasn't even busy so... yeah. We did doubted the freshness of the seafood due to how empty it was, but they tasted fine. My friend joked around and said they must have did a quick run to the ocean to catch some seafood (haha). The food was OKAY. Not something I would crave personally, but it was very tasteful. It was also different from anything I have tried before. Portion was plentiful as we both did not finished everything. They displayed it well and looked appetizing. I really wanted to try the ceviche, but will save that for next time. That's IF we don't get stomach aches or what not after this first visit. Just kidding! All in all, not a shabby place for Peruvian food. Definitely try it out!

Great Peruvian lunch specials for just $7 - really, a 4 star meal. It's just that we had some uninvited guests that made our meal less appetizing .. ants. Like a parade of them along the wall, and found one crawling in our bread basket. Yeah, so we didn't quite clean up our plates. But my friend said the bathrooms were clean so don't completely think it's a dirty restaurant. Then again, my friend did see a score of "80" on the health certificate. Still, if you can look beyond that & be adventurous, the food really is good. I ordered the "Saltado de Mariscos" which is stir-fried seafood (shrimp, squid, mussels) with tomatoes & onions, the fries hiding below the pool of seafood but tasty from being drenched in all the juices, plus white rice. Very filling meal. My friend got the "Arroz con Mariscus" which also had assorted seafood but in a blend of Peruvian spices, and served with a reddish-looking & slightly spicy rice. Her dish was tasty as well. The restaurant was pretty packed when we left - and a good cross-section of customers. Contigo Peru restaurants are down to just two locations now, the other being further north on P'tree Industrial. Our server was friendly but didn't speak English well ... which can be a problem if you have an allergy to shellfish like my friend did. Hopefully my friend is still ok :) They are open 11am-11pm, 7 days a week. Lunch specials are available 11-3pm. And they have a disco on Fri-Sat from 10-3am if you're into that :) Oh - and there's a $10 minimum charge if you want to use a credit card.

Great Food, do not let the outside deceive you. Very much recommend!
(4)Chip C.
So we drove by this simple corner Peruvian restaurant and being from San Diego w/similar wanted to try. Yelp reviews encouraged us. The place is over rated. Waitress with no English skills is not good. Music was Hispanic? Food had too much sauce that tasted like thousand island dressing. Very plain taste. IF you still try go with grilled items.

My friend wanted a Peruvian meal after watching an Anthony Bourdain show and wow! This is the place. I find that a lot of the off the beaten path places in ATL are not packed during normal dinner hours because they are open until 3AM! It was a very enjoyable meal and it was fun tasting new flavors and spices. We had 2 different kinds of ceviche. The whole damn meal was great. Just go there and bring a friend that can speak a little Spanish. They added 15% to the bill, keep an eye on that because there were only 3 of us?

Ok. So, Im not a Peruvian expert but, a friend that I was with when I ate here this Sunday afternoon is well versed in it. We dined on bread and aji, beef hearts, and some rice and beef meal with onions, and peppers, that my friend ordered for us, and washed it down with Inca Cola. I was told if we were in Peru it would be average to good but, being in Atlanta it was pretty damn great. I can only saw I fully enjoyed everything I ate and everything I started to eat I kept eating until it was gone. The prices were much higher than we expected when we mentioned that they suggested just ordering one meal and split it because they are large portions. So, we did just that. One meal and one appetizer and it was plenty of food. One of the other reviewers spoke of a lunch special for 7 bucks....do that if you can and Ill assume thats not something that is an option on Sundays because we were there at lunch time. A very pleasant meal, with a relaxing vibe. Its great to find a new places tucked into the bare history of the old areas off Peachtree Industrial.

By far the best ceviche in town!
