Urubamba

"Going to Urubamba, a Peruvian spot in Jackson Heights, with only one other person is like going to Easter Island and not seeing the giant heads. You’ll still have a good time, but you’ll miss out on the bulk of the experience. That’s because the very long menu at this all-day spot—which looks like a bed and breakfast in the Andes—is mostly made up of large plates meant to be shared. There's a semi-decent chance your parents will be incepted with the idea of a family trip to Machu Picchu while here, so be ready the change the subject when that comes up." - hannah albertine, kenny yang

"Formerly known as Inti Raymi, Urubamba is one of New York’s oldest Peruvian restaurant. The dishes here are rustic and comforting and taste like they've been made with love. The extensive menu offers familiar favorites like ceviche, BBQ chicken and lomo saltado (Peruvian-style beef stir fry), as well as harder to find Peruvian dishes like anticuchos de corazon (grilled veal hearts), lamb stew in aji panca sauce, and tacu tacu. Wash it down with a pitcher of chicha morada or sangria." - Diane Shaw

After tasting the shrimp paella and stir-fried steak served over french fries, you’re going to want to try the ceviches, stews, and grilled meats that occupy entire sections of the menu." - team infatuation

"According to their Instagram bio, Urubamba is the oldest Peruvian restaurant in the city. So if you’re looking for a Jackson Heights establishment that knows how to pump out a plate of fresh ceviche, this is the spot to try. Come here for a classic version of ceviche mixto with even more leche de tigre on the side, along with some plump pieces of lime-covered shrimp, tender raw octopus, and fatty chunks of white fish that will melt in your mouth." - hannah albertine, nikko duren, carlo mantuano
