Sol de oro, Sports Bar and Grill - Authentic Peruvian Flavors in Lake Placid

Tried the Peruvian food for the first time and it was super delicious! Our waiter told us that it’s a family business and his mom is cooking the food, so it’s definitely authentic! Highly recommend this place to visit!

First time trying Peruvian food and it was a 10/10. The location, the atmosphere and the employees were great ! Highly recommend if you’re in the lake placid area. Won’t disappoint :)

It's a family-run business with a good mix of food! Great for people who want to try something new and for people who are less adventurous. The mother cooked an amazing Peruvian dish called lomo saltado. I ate every bite! We also got a great chicken panini there. Very friendly service there. Highly recommend!

This is a family run restaurant and was very well managed. The waiter recommended some Peruana food and it did not disappoint. Hubby got the Lomo Saitado and I had the Lamb stew. Food came out pretty fast and so much food we couldn't even finish our plates. Everything was delicious.

We loved this place. Delicious authentic food. The owner told us his mother makes all the Peruvian dishes and they taste exactly like a “mom” would make. The drinks were delicious and the prices were extremely fair. The best food we had in lake placid.

My family and I have been coming to Lake Placid for nearly 30 years. We’ve seen dozens of restaurants open and close throughout our years here. There is definitely a lack of diversity when it comes to food in this town, so we decided to try Sol de Oro as we get a bit tired of American and Italian food. We were surprised at how empty the restaurant was on a Friday night, considering the restaurants on the busy part of Main Street have 45-60 minute waits MINIMUM on weekends. There was only one other group in the restaurant which isn’t always a great sign. Our waiter (cannot recall his name unfortunately) and his family are working tirelessly to provide a great experience for their customers. He took the time to educate us on the variety of Peruvian dishes they have to offer and even was very knowledgeable about gluten free dishes as a few of us are celiac. He explained his mom is the chef and puts a lot of love into the dishes, which we learned was absolutely true. Everyone in our group that ordered authentic Peruvian dishes absolutely loved it. Two people in the group ordered American dishes which they weren’t THRILLED with, but we told them it’s because they ordered wrong at a Peruvian restaurant! It’s easily become one of my new favorite meals in the town, and I wish I could bring in more clientele for them, as they absolutely deserve the attention/business. I look forward to our next visit there, and will encourage anyone I can to give it a try! I ordered the Bistek a lo pobre and two people ordered the arroz chaufa and both dishes were 10/0!!!

As a fellow Peruvian, I found the food to be authentic and as delicious as my late mother's home cooked Peruvian dishes she made as I was growing up. The service staff was friendly and attentive. Our food came out quickly and was well presented. The portions are large and you may have to take some home which only extends the culinary experience even longer. I especially enjoyed the Lomo Saltado and Ceviche. We all ordered a bottle of the Chicha Morada and even ordered 4 more to take to our hotel. I would highly recommend Sol de Oro to anyone looking for a delicious meal in the Lake Placid area.
