Just off Main Street, Brasas Peruanas at 206 N Mays St, Round Rock, TX is a colorful reminder that comfort food doesn’t have to be Tex-Mex or barbecue. Here, the flavors of Peru shine in dishes like citrusy ceviche, golden empanadas, sweet plantains, and the creamy, chicken-based aji de gallina. Pair any of it with a glass of chicha morada, a purple corn drink, or passion fruit juice, and you’ll quickly see why this spot has built such a loyal following.
Plates with tradition
The menu balances crowd favorites with homestyle cooking. Pollo a la brasa, slow-roasted and seasoned with a Peruvian blend of spices, is a must-try. Lomo saltado brings together tender beef, onions, fries, and sauce in a savory stir-fry. Arroz chaufa offers a Peruvian spin on fried rice, and there’s always a ceviche option that feels bright and fresh. Every plate leans on recipes passed down through generations, each cooked with intention.
A story that started small
Owner Susan Vivanco began cooking in a modest Highland Mall kitchen, perfecting recipes and building community through food. That passion carried into Lima Criolla and eventually into Brasas Peruanas, where the dream of bringing authentic Peruvian flavors to Central Texas became a lasting reality. The restaurant still carries that spirit, family-driven, welcoming, and proud of its roots.
