Great experience at Pisac Peruvian Bistro in Toronto! Located in Cabbage Town, nestled in a great neighborhood. We ate on the patio with engaging service, interested in our tastes and suggesting dishes we may enjoy. Funny enough they were the same dishes we were already talking about to order. And which we did enjoy very much! 2 apps and 1 ceviche was a pleasant amount with adult beverages. Try the Chicha Morada! P & J
This is the 6th time I've been to Pisac with friends. As with all the other times, the food was fantastic and the service was great. Only negative is that the patio not yet open - they are awaiting City approval. Should be any day now!! Had a Pisco Sour to start! And for “entradas” we shared the Calamares Fritos and the Yucca fries. Both great. For the mains we had Ceviche Mixto, Aji de Pollo (pulled chicken breast with garlic rice) and Seco de Cordero (braised lamb shank). All three were very tasty.
Disfrutamos mucho nuestra cena! Amamos la comida peruana y disfrutamos nuestra estadía. Estemos pendientes para estrenar el patio. Un abrazo fuerte a todos. Gran trabajo! Jonathan y Analia
Im really pleased that we came to Pisac. The food was amazing! The ceviche was so good that I am still thinking about it. 😮💨 portions were also big. And the service was amazing!! We absolutely loved this restaurant and will come back more often for our date nights. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu. 🫶🏼

Authentic Peruvian Food!
The ceviche and ají de pollo are absolutely delicious, made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Their chicharrón at brunch is incredible, and the alfajor cake is an absolute must-try! I also loved their perfectly crafted pisco sour. Highly recommend!

Highly recommended! Great quality food and authentic, as confirmed by my brother's girlfriend - who is Peruvian :) The chicha morada was excellent. The host was also very accommodating! We were a group of 6 people (5+1 child).

I thought I would take some friends here for a birthday. Nope. It was not the same. Service was bad and the guy acted like we were bothering him and the food was way too salty. Ultimately we decided to go somewhere else.

Good find with limited seating (so recommend booking in advance) with good service. We had their Causa de Atun, which was an excellent and a different take on tuna tartare, would definitely have that again. Their ceviche selection was super and we had the Ceviche Mixto, which was a good mix of several seafood items (very good). Their main course dish that was recommended to us was the Arroz Con Mariscos, which was good but didn’t really kick our palate to a wow factor. Their drinks were in good quantity and we enjoyed our date night at Pisac. Plenty of street parking available around the restaurant. Thanks!

One of the most satisfying meals I've had, where it was just non-stop munching on delicious Peruvian fares. First comes the Canchita (Peruvian popcorn) on the house, where an addicting crisp/crunchy texture is followed by a subtle nuttiness and oily fragrance. Only found out later it was supposed to go with the ceviche after finishing most of it, but they were kind enough to refill it for us. The popcorn provides a delightful texture contrast to the Ceviche Mixto, where the fresh seafood is marinated in an acidic liquid called "leche de tigre". Included in the platter are mahi mahi, calamari rings, octopus, and shrimp, along with red onions, cilantro, waxy corn and sweet potato that culminates into a beautiful melody of textures and tastes.
The ceviche was a sizable portion, but the aromas of the mains revitalized our appetites. No way I could pass up the lamb shank, which was fall of the bone tender from braising in a brown ale. The cumin and chilli peppers compliment the savoriness of the lamb with a distinct earthiness that jumps off the plate. Served with a creamy helping of navy beans that have absorbed the delicious braising liquid, and fragrant garlic rice. To finish it off, a whole sea bream is grilled for a smoky aroma and cooked to a moist, flaky mouthfeel, which is then drenched in a tangy white wine chilli tomato sauce that's perfect with rice.

If you’re looking for authentic Peruvian experience Pisac is a must visit. From the moment I walked in the cozy and inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for the evening. The food was amazing - we started with the ceviche which was so fresh and good that we dove in and forgot to take any pictures. The mussels and paella were equally good. Had pisco sour which was smooth tangy and absolutely refreshing. Ended with dessert which also exceptional. Pisac truly delivers in both flavor and ambiance. Highly recommend!

Went for lunch with some friends to try Peruvian food. To all of our surprise the food was delicious, the presentation was great and very good service. I had the Risoto Nero which is made with squid ink, with shrimps and calamari all cooked to perfection. The portions were generous as I had to take some of my lunch home. My friends had the lamp shank, pulled chicken risoto and the grilled octopus. Highly recommended
