Peruvian Restaurants in New York, NY

“Last night We came to eat at Mission Ceviche for the first time and we left very happy for the incredible quality of food and service. 100% recommended with a tremendous desire to return soon. Good service and everyone very friendly I had a very wonderful birthday.“

“The atmosphere was fantastic, with a great bohemian vibe. The food was excellent, but the service could definitely be improved. The special was never mentioned to us, even though it was what we initially wanted. Our water wasn’t refilled, and we had to ask multiple times. Additionally, an extra drink was added to our tab, and the complementary birthday drink was not removed.

We visited on a Sunday evening, and several items—one appetizer, two entrées, and two desserts—were sold out, but we weren’t informed until we tried to order them.“

“Kind family owned business with the best Fettuccine I have ever ate ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Really hyped, and with a lot of reviews, the expectations were high.

What was good?
When for starters the chicken was indeed quite good. But in the context of other Peruvian chicken I’ve had in the past, it was not extraordinary. Yes the skin was crispy and the meat was juicy. The arroz chaufa hit all the savory notes that I was looking for too. The sangria didn’t disappoint either.

What was bad?
Overall, not too much other than the sporadic and slightly chaotic service. Not necessarily any marks against Pio Pio for this, I think it was just a busy night.

The main issue I had was the frozen chicken used in the arroz chaufa. In a restaurant that is known for its chicken, you wouldn’t think they would cheap out on it at any point. But, this was simply not the case. It was dry, chewy, and clearly not as fresh as their rotisserie chicken.

It didn’t scare me off entirely from going back, but I was disappointed to say the least. Most people have extremely low bars for chicken as a meat they would spend money on at a restaurant. Don’t give people a reason to complain I just don’t get it. Looking back on it, I would have said something or sent the dish back, not because I’m an asshole, but because I know they can do better.“

“Everything! The food, the flavors, the service, the hospitality… EVERYTHING was AWESOME! 👏🏻 My wife and I had an excellent first experience at Artesano celebrating our anniversary and we will be back soon! Shout out to our hosts Roman and Frankie, our server Nick, and the hard working kitchen staff and everyone who made our night very special! THANK YOU 😊“

“Atencion de primera. La comida es deliciosa y los precios razonables.con gusto regresaria a comer esos platos peruanos.“

“Pio Pio sauce and the mystery of it“

“Delicious Peruvian and Chinese food. The service is very attentive.“

“We had two nigiri, a roll, a yuzu avocado salad, some wine, on a Monday. All really very good and priced accordingly. Server friendly with no particular knowledge of sushi. Playlist awkwardly loud M.I.A., TLC etc., made the place feel kinda fast food despite the elegant interior but“

“We tried the shrimp chowder and camaron saltado! Mommy and I would have licked the bowl and plate, if we weren't in public! Then he brought out the passion fruit creme brulee...Heaven!!!!“

“It’s my go to place for lunch, fresh and delicious choices, simply menu, not overwhelming. Staff are friendly, service is fast, the space is clean, bright, and well organized. Although there are only couple seats inside, it doesn’t feel crowded. I love the bold flavors and colors of every dish, beef, chicken, shrimp, tuna, tofu, and mushroom bowls are all amazing. Highly recommended!“

“This is a local Chinese/Peruvian food restaurant that gives new meaning to Chinese food! This fusion of flavors is amazing! I’ve had the steak with tostones, their chicharrón de pollo & many other delectable dishes. They also have a nice bar & make excellent Pisco sours which I can’t find in too many places! I live in Rockland County & the hubby & I take the trip about monthly just to eat here! Nothing fancy about the restaurant but definitely good eats! Highly recommend! The hubby &!I will definitely be back! 😋😋😋“

“You can never go wrong with a lomo saltado or a classic, original and how it’s supposed to be made, ceviche. The flavors were out of this world. Meat was cooked perfectly, sauce was perfect. The fettuccini with the homemade sauce was ridiculous. Gonna try making it at home for sure!! The ceviche was really good, the puréed sweet potato was a nice touch. Wish i had a bit more of a portion but all in all, very very good!“

“Long time neighborhood favorite for roast chicken served with a tangy garlic sauce. Spacing between tables is generous, staff is nice and helpful, and there's a pleasant track of Peruvian Andes music to set the mood. We chose to share their Peruvian Chicken platter, a $60 combo with a whole grilled chicken that melted off the bone; a large salad with tomatoes, lettuce and avocado; and a large plate of freshly made French fries. It's hard to eat on the UWS for $30 these days, and we had plenty to take home, so we thought it was a great casual meal option. Menu also features ceviche and Latin dishes like beans n'rice and yucca, skirt steak etc. A diverse group of neighbors, some elderly, gal pals, students and couples were obviously enjoying their meals, too.“

“Wonderful place, so bright and clean 😍 Positive energy and great food!“

“Food was great tasty good service and good prices“

“Después de meses me pude tomar una Inca kola y me comí "El Lomo Saltado", que Lomo, espectacular. Como Peruano lo Recomiendo 100%, felicidades!!!“

“Had a terrific lunch here. Some of the best ceviche I've ever eaten. Entrees were excellent and, according to my husband (who's been to Peru), authentic to the spirit of the country. I also got the arroz chufa with steak. Yum! Ample portions and good value. First meal on this trip to NYC and it'll be hard to beat. HIGHLY recommended.“

“Absolutamente delicioso!!“

“On the street level, the place appears to be a small Mom and pop's restaurant... However much to my delight when we were being seated we were led downstairs to a huge dining room! While the ambiance was impeccable, the food was average!“

“Jorge was amazing and made us feel so welcome. Superb service“

“The food and service were on point!“

“Delicious Peruvian and Chinese food. The service is very attentive.“

“I've been on a mission to try every Peruvian pollo a la brasa in NYC, hoping to find the ones that have the same taste as the ones back in Lima. Chrip is nearly spot on. Amazing tasting chicken that actually tastes like Peruvian pollo a la brasa instead of the 5 spices some other places do. Chicken was so succulent. The green sauce was so good.

The other star of the show here is the Pork confit sandwich which is a nod to the traditional Peruvian pan con chicharrón. It was SOO GOOD. Pork was so tender and the flavours were incredible. I've been back a few times and gotten it every time.

Probably my fave Peruvian pollo spot in Manhattan at the moment. Highly recommend!“
