Casa Zoraya traces back to a dream one family carried for decades, beginning in Calca, a small town in Perú's Sacred Valley. That history shows up in a North Portland room built around the rustic beauty and vibrant colors of Peruvian streets and spaces, with regular live music and events adding to the experience.
The menu moves between classic and modern Peruvian cooking: papa rellena, causa de camarones, and anticuchos de corazón alongside a ceviche de pescado built from the fish of the day with ají amarillo, rocoto, and leche de tigre. Larger plates include lomo saltado criollo, ají de gallina, arroz con mariscos, and seco de cordero, with vegetarian options like hongo saltado and picante de hongos rounding things out. The bar centers on pisco, with a classic pisco sour, a passionfruit version, and a chicha morada batida among the cocktails.
Casa Zoraya has been covered by Willamette Week, the Portland Mercury, Eater, and The Infatuation, and holds a spot on the Eater 38.
