Cafe De Martin - Tallahassee

Excellent Peruvian food. we ate the aji de gallina and hocharines con huancaína. good quality and good taste. we loved the authenticity of the place. it is really like a rustic Peruvian caffe. super clean, great customer service and beautiful atmosphere. If you love to eat Latin American, you have to go here. if they are peruans, they do not miss this jewel.

The food was absolutely amazing! It was my first experience with Peruvian cuisine, and I can assure you it won't be my last. The pasta was delightful, and the yucca was cooked to perfection. I had read about a happy hour deal, so I was a bit surprised to find none when I arrived. They offer a house red and white wine, which are served by the glass, while everything else comes from the bottle. If you're not ordering a beer, the options for adult beverages are rather limited. However, the food is incredibly good, and I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

Wow! I was blown away from this Peruvian kitchen in the heart of tallahassee! we ordered the cause de langostinos as an appetizer, that was a baptism of an egg, avocado with a mild chili paste and top notch ceviche! we also ordered the lomo saltado with bark meat, which was a simple Peruvian dish with so delicate meat and was seasoned for perfection! the atmosphere and the room made me feel home and relaxed too: I cannot expect to come back here and try some of their other dishes!

The hidden gem of a restaurant is hidden in a strip-mask (which seems to be the tallahasee away). super friendly staff. clean, inviting room, with open kitchen, cozy dining room and terrace seat. the service was exceptional from the first greeting by the settlement of the tab. the menu is packed with tempting options, but for my first lunch here we share a sequence of ceviche de la casa and a chicken sandwich. every bite of both dressed was expertly prepared, perfectly seasoned and delicious! we ordered the ceviche medium spicy, that was in front of location the chicken sandwich with the plucked wobble, spicy screed and fries was so good! can not wait to go back and try many more of their offers. the suppe de jour looked fantastic! do not let the mall location or its indulgence with Peruvian cuisine strip them away from some of the best food in tallahasee!

Motivated in part by Frank P.'s review highlighting the juicy and flavorful beef sandwich, I decided to order the Asado Sandwich. It sounded delicious in the description, but sadly, the beef turned out to be as dry as could be. I imagined that if they simmered it with some stock, it could regain its juiciness, but today it was so dry that it was difficult to swallow without water. I mentioned this to the staff, and while they apologized, they did not offer any substitutions. I also tried the flan (crema volteada), which is a bit denser than other flans but quite good. I don't want to dismiss Cafe de Martin based on just one disappointing sandwich, so I'm willing to give them another chance due to their intriguing menu. Next time, I plan to try whichever pork sandwich they recommend as a juicier alternative. I'll update you after my next visit to let you know how it goes!
