Picked this place on a whim while we were inside the mall and decided to try and no regrets. This place is awesome! Staff was friendly, vibes were great and the food was delicious! The nigiri tasting is a MUST!!! My boyfriend and I were obsessed, with the corn one being our favorite (we were surprised but it was so good), the steak one being second and the shrimp being third but still really good. The app and meal we got was solid as well. We'd definitely go again to get the nigiri tasting and to try other things!

Jaranas' visual spectrum is upper echelon, top shelf dining. It's incredible that such a gem is in a mall? Only bad aspect is to find parking & the location due to the large size of the mall. I dined in on a Sunday afternoon & there was a food truck event which closed the LotA parking lot. Just getting into the mall was chaos. I walked 3miles from The parking lot to the restaurant & my friend has Multiple Sclerosis so walking is difficult. It was worth it. The service, food, ambiance, was immaculate & to the detail. Bathrooms are super clean, there were plenty of staff & they were all friendly. I ordered cocktails & the 4course special which was 2 appetizers, 1 entree & a dessert. Their menu is extensive & full of delicious options. This establishment is my new favorite restaurant! Can't wait to come back! In the age of inflation; everything about Jarana is top tier!

Yummy Peruvian restaurant at American Dream! The decor was bright, colorful, and reminiscent of a Latin street market with its artwork. It was so beautiful to look at and piqued my curiosity when passing by. The menu was extravagant, and it was a little tough to choose what to get because I have never tried authentic Peruvian food before. I opted for the churrasco chaufa, and my family got the chaufa aeropuerto and a sharable seafood dish called the Jarana Cebichera I believe. All of the portions sizes were huge (except for the $60+ Jarana Cebichera which was small), and the plating was spectacular. The rice on the Jarana Cebichera was packed with mouth-bursting flavor, and the sauce on the seafood was very good. The churrasco chaufa steak was pretty tough and hard to eat, and the veggie fried rice was just average. Same with the Chaufa aeropuerto. It was a good meal nonetheless, just nothing stood out to me. Glad I tried it though!
