five star review by Marisa H:

El Batan delivers more than a meal—it's an experience. We tried the Peruvian drink flights (all made with pisco), and the mango was the standout—fresh, smooth, and absolutely excellent. The fried cauliflower was lightly breaded and perfectly crisp, and the ceviche had just the right kick—bright, fresh, and addictive. Vibrant atmosphere inside, with a sweet little patio that feels made for spring nights. Definitely worth the visit.

First visit and food was amazing. Steak was perfectly good, delicious plantains, and a fresh salad. I got calamari too- very good. Manager held a conversation with me. Thank you for your service

El Batan is hands-down the best Peruvian restaurant in town. The food is authentic and flavorful (don't miss the ceviche and lomo saltado), the environment is cozy and well-decorated, and the staff are welcoming and attentive. Great spot for a casual meal or a special night out.
