A new food truck has opened its doors in the neighborhood. Called Olaya Peruvian Food, the new addition is located at 1800 Barton Springs Road in Barton Hills.

This family run eatery offers a limited menu and catering services for now. Look for sandwiches, plus classics like ceviche and lomo saltado.

Also try the fan favorite causa limena, which is made with seasonal vegetables, aji amarillo (a Peruvian yellow chile pepper), vegan mayo and whipped potato and avocado.

With a five-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp so far, the newcomer has been warmly received by patrons.

Yelper Luis F., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Oct. 12, wrote, "La comida estaba esquisito" is what I told the team after I ate the causa, lomo saltado, and later on, the ceviche. ... As a fellow Peruvian, [I] can say this was the closest to my mom's cooking — highly, highly recommend eating here!"  

And Taylor G. shared, "Been searching for good Peruvian places to eat for a while in Austin — then came Olaya! I got the ceviche, of course, and the causa limena: everything you'd want it to be and a nice portion. I'm bringing everyone I know here."

Head on over to check it out: Olaya Peruvian Food is open from 11 a.m.–3 p.m. and 5–10 p.m. on Tuesday–Friday and 11 a.m.–10 p.m. on weekends. (It's closed on Monday.)
