La Tía Peruvian Cuisine

South American$-$$

There’s lots to love at this Peruvian eatery in Atlantic City run by Rosa Aldarondo and her niece, Maria Uceda, especially the ceviche, arroz con mariscos and soulful chicken soup. Says critic Craig LaBan, “Stir-fried beef lomo saltado and the shredded gallina chicken in a creamy yellow pepper sauce are other popular classics, as well as a Jalea that offers a bounty of beautifully fried mixed seafood laced with tangy criolla onions. For dessert, Maria’s mom Maritza Rosado makes flan, mazamorra purple corn pudding, and picarones fritters, reaffirming the obvious: La Tía is a flavorful family affair.”
