Jora

Hidden gem in LIC where the food is amazing, staff is accommodating and the ambiance makes you feel like you’re on vacation! This spot is located on the corner of 47th street so you can miss it. One of the best things about this restaurant is directly across the street. There is free parking for about four cars. The rest is regular street parking. But coming here for lunch. It was easy to park for free in one of those spots. I asked for recommendations from the waitress and what she recommended did not fail. My guest and I left here fully satisfied, and will be returning for dinner to see what the nighttime vibes are all about. I’m interested in trying one of the dishes. The bartender stated that he makes with Budweiser beer!?! Can’t wait to go bake. Go here!!!

Jora offers excellent Peruvian dishes. Ceviche carretilla has a prefect blend of flavor and texture with fresh ingredients; tangy and savory, tender and crunchy. Grilled octopus was smoky, not chewy, served over a bed of creamy yukon mille fueille. Salmon was exactly how I like it; crunchy skin with juicy and tender meat, melts in my mouth.

The restaurant is spacious, offers both indoor and outdoor seating options. The bar area is quite nice. We were seated immediately without a reservation on a Saturday afternoon. Service is good, although server forgot to deliver my drink even though the restaurant was not c

Came here for holiday work dinner and we had an Incredible fine dining experience! The pisco sours are divine and the authentic Peruvian food is delicious 😋 I highly recommend the jalea appetizer it’s a fried seafood mix with calamari shrimp fish and yucca with red onion and some amazing sauces. I ordered the pastel de choclo which was flavorful with plenty of truffle and cheese 🧀 The lomo saltado came with fries which were such a delight! The pisco shots at the end of the meal were a nice touch too and this place is overall phenomenal ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an absolutely fantastic experience at Jora. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make the evening memorable. Miguel was exceptional; he was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Our waitress, Lorena, was equally outstanding. Their care, professionalism, and kindness truly stood out, making us feel exceptionally well taken care of. The food was nothing short of amazing. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. It was one of those meals where every bite feels memorable. The Lomo Saltado was a standout, but honestly, all the dishes were incredible. What made the night truly unforgettable was how the team helped us celebrate my mother’s birthday. They made a special day even more meaningful, surprising her wi

Food was absolutely delicious! We had the mixto ceviche, octopus, chicken dish and paella dish. Everything was awesome, the chicken fell off the bone and was so tender. The ceviche was so flavorful, the octopus was tender and so good. The cocktails were great. Will definitely return!
