The multi course chef special was delightful. The quinoa salad was also well prepared and presented.

Husband and I did the tasting Menu for my birthday. Everything was amazing. They informed us that due to issues with the oysters they were going to replace the first plate with hamachi. It worked out perfectly because I was actually going to order it in addition to the tasting Menu. The rest of the plates were tasty. The server explained every dish as it came out. Service was outstanding. The ambiance was perfect for a date night. Highly recommend checking this place out. The tasting Menu was perfect to try a little bit of everything.

Wonderful food with huge portions. It was so tasty I could not stop eating. It's a lovely place. Our server was nice, but so quiet. We had to tell him to speak up several times. The other staff was not so quiet and they were very helpful. The mac and beer was soooo good. And the seafood was amazing. The gyiza frita was very tasty. The Kaisen Ramen had wonderful flavors. The Arroz con Maricos was perfect. They had nice beer choices and cocktails. The best part was the churros. OMG!!! They were filled and they had this amazing chocolate sauce to dip in. Sooooo yummy!!!

Shout-out to one of our favorite places to dine: Pacha Nikkei in the Westchase District. This Peruvian-Japanese fusion spot never misses. We ordered the tasting menu, and every bite was excellent. Our favorite dish, the Elixir de Tigre ceviche, was not on the tasting menu, but we had been craving it for weeks, so we added it. Worth it.
My husband ordered the Wagyu Old Fashioned, which was well balanced and not overpowering. I always order the Chilcano. It is light, refreshing, and dangerously easy to drink. The staff is consistently kind and attentive. We have had the same bartender twice, once during restaurant week and again last night, and he was outstanding. He walked us through each course and advised us on when to enjoy the extra ceviche for the best experience. He was right.
I do not write many restaurant reviews, but this place deserves the love. A true gem in Westchase.

Nice place for special dinners. Top service and the quality of the food is amazing. Arroz con Mariscos, Lomo Saltado and Pisco sour are the best.

Great food, drinks and atmosphere!!! Been to this place several times and is always a great experience! Service is amazing as well.
I recently discovered Pacha Nikkei and will say it is definitely one of my favorite new fusion restaurants! The freshness, flavors and presentation of the food is superb, as is the service! Furthermore, the atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant is lively and aesthetically pleasing! I especially am in love with the variety of ceviches and maki! Desserts are bomb as well! My favorite is the Lucuma Cheesecake!

I love Peruvian cuisine because it is one of the most underrated and overlooked food cultures out there. My best friend is Peruvian and extremely picky about Peruvian spots, and he always says Houston does not have many that get it right. This place absolutely delivered. The Leche de Tigre in the ceviche was bright, refreshing, and satisfying with just the right amount of heat to wake you up without overwhelming the palate. We ate the Lomo Saltado so fast I forgot to take a picture, which tells you everything you need to know. My Peruvian buddy gave this place his full stamp of approval, which carries a lot of weight. During happy hour the oysters topped with Leche de Tigre foam are only two dollars each. I usually prefer oysters pure or with a simple mignonette, but the Leche de Tigre foam was a genius and refreshing touch. I would have kept ordering more, but I wanted to pace myself and explore the rest of the menu.

We did the $55 tasting menu which was seven courses, plus ordered an additional portion of the Pulpo to try it as well. Very delicious and would definitely return.

So our meal was ok, started off great, the tuna ceviche was delicious and amazing flavors. The cucumber salad was overly sweet, looked spicy but way too sweet! The fried Brussel sprouts were also very sweet! The beef tenderloin which actually lacked tenderness and beef from which you can see in the pictures and the macaroni and cheese was way to salty and almost un edible. The chicken skewers were also so so! Not bad not delicious. The oysters were delicious! Probably not worth returning to for us with over a $200 bill and leaving unsatisfied for two people.
