Reviews For Kousine Fort Lauderdale

Amazing Peruvian food. Loved every single dish that we ordered. This cafe is across the street from the beach and offers great views. Despite it’s prime location, prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended.

Hey all! I had the paella and, being a foodie, it was absolutely the bomb! Fresh fish, the sauce was a great blend with hints of lime & Cilantro. The onion would have provided more pop against the creaminess of the dish if they were pickled. Service was nice. Outdoor table was nice.

There’s no other words other than simply wow! This is a hidden gem in Fort Lauderdale, basically a hole in the wall with amazingly delicious food. Everything here is delicious but I would recommend the fried rice. Love this small place, the staff are so friendly and nice and it’s just worth the price.

This was a great place to eat. Both the red and the white sangria were delicious. The ceviche was very good also. And the chef special paella was filling. The view was perfect - right across from the beach. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!

We ordered the ceviche and it was unlike anything I’ve ever had before. The seafood was so fresh, and spicy! We sat on the patio and it was a little loud as it’s next to a busy road, but there is indoor seating as well.

We tried many different dishes and everything was outstanding quality and absolutely delicious. I specially loved the crispy honey shrimp, the kousine ceviche and the fried calamari. 10/10

Casual spot with excellent authentic Peruvian food and staff were very nice! We stopped in for a “snack” and drinks - We ordered the Ceviche Mixto, Lomo Saltado and Red Sangria - all very tasty. Would highly recommend!

This is a hidden gem! Food was exceptional. Very tasty. My first time trying Peruvian cuisine. It has a unique flavor. I tried lomo soltado and I can’t recommend it enough. I will definitely go back when visiting.
