About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
Canggio Restaurant is a classy but casual dining atmosphere for guests to enjoy the unique offerings of Peruvian cuisine.

Some well-loved dishes are Trio de Ceviche, Pato, Seco de Lomo, and Arroz Chaufa.

Chef Julio Cancho is born and raised in Peru, but classically trained in French and Italian cookery. He adds a Peruvian twist to some American dishes also on the menu.

Peruvian cuisine, considered among the best in the world, inherited its innovation, mix and flavors from Peru’s history. Its culinary fusion developed over a long process of cultural exchange between the Spanish, Africans, Chinese, Japanese and Italians, among others. The dishes became more and more varied as races mixed and migrants landed at the port of Callao.

    We enjoyed a combined birthday and mother's day early dinner. The waitress was very helpful and friendly. We shared the Peruvian Spiced Rub chicken wings as an appetizer. I had the seafood pasta special. My husband had the coffee encrusted Aymara  salmon which was delicious. our friend enjoyed the Lomo Steak. After seeing 2 reviews on the wall, we finished our meal with the PICARONES  - Pumpkin, sweet potato donuts, fruity spiced syrup. So yummy.

    An excellent dining experience in an unexpected location. Very tasty Japanese inspired Peruvian cuisine in a modestly upscale ambiance served by friendly, capable staff. We will be back next time we are in the area.

    There was a very noisy group there and it was impossible to have a quiet conversation with friends. As always, the food and service was excellent.
