    Had this place for lunch with a friend and immediately had to go check out pisco. Everything is super fresh, service is welcoming, and the decor feels very authentic.

    Yum!! I honestly was impressed small place , cosy, great service and great food. Didn't expect to have a great variety of plates . Definitely worth it. Try the pisco yum

    Octopus and other wiggly sea things. Delicious! @ Pisco Express. Lake Nona, FL

    This is a great hidden gem! Cool place to try if you're looking for something new and exciting. Unfortunately, I cannot comment as to the authenticity but it all seemed very Peruvian legit to the untrained palate. Pisco drinks are great! They also have a couple Peruvian beers to try. The menu is diverse with many exciting things. Our food was excellent! Staff is friendly and very fast. Music is lively and energetic. Plenty of parking. Overall recommended. We will return.

    Picked up 8 Lunch Specials today for the whole office and every single one of my coworkers was blown away by how delicious everything was. In an area of overpriced regular food, this restaurant truly raises above with low prices, great portions, amazing presentation and unbeatable taste. All that with the great service and beautiful ambiance! 10/10 recommend. I would recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food or someone looking for lunch under $15 that includes an appetizer AND entree.

    What a great place! The service, decor, music, and of course the food. All the staff were so friendly and everyone is bilingual which was a plus. We tried a nice variety of things: Piscotenos - crispy dough stuffed with lomo and mozzarella cheese - they taste like cheesesteak egg rolls. Arroz con Mariscos - highly recommend! Lomo Saltado Seco Tacu Tacu lomo saltado Ceviche Drinks we got: Pisco sour Chicha sour Cusquena - Peruvian beer Inka Kola No problem parking. Will definitely be back.

    Why did it take me this long to try this place? Finally stopped by yesterday and had the most amazing experience. We have been to Pisco before and enjoyed that experience but we actually was surprised that we love it here more!! It is more casual and the food and drinks are just amazing! First our waiter Diego was the best!!! One of the best waiters we have ever had! So attentive and efficient, just an overall amazing person! He suggested us things to try that we would have never ordered. Drinks we had the pisco sour passion fruit To start we got the trilogia de causas: lomo saltado, ceviche, and shrimp. Wow what a way to start! Each sit ontop of what is similar to mash potato. Entree we got the pulpo La brasa and arroz con mariscos, both were absolutely delicious. Octopus was cooked perfectly, the seafood rice dish was so flavorful, it's like a risotto, absolutely delicious. We were full but took home two desserts, the chocolate torte and the flan. The chocolate was the winner!! Overall we had the most amazing time, delicious food and Diego!!!! What more could you want!

    Needles to say this place open with great expectations. And did not disappoint!!! Pisco Express is located in the lake Nona area. Such a hidden gem in very competitive food and beverage town! The plates were made quickly and the service is impeccable. We were quickly seated and welcomed. We were even offer a stand to hold our belongings. Such a. Vibe. The ambiance is chic and cozy. Nothing like a quick service experience. The place was pretty busy and the smell really caught our attention directly to the kitchen. We promptly ordered our food and the rest is history. Washed it all down with some Peruvian beer. Pilsen. And purple corn juice. Is a classic Peruvian drink! Tried various dishes Causa triple Ceviche de pescado Tallarín saltado de pollo Lomo saltado con fettuccine a la huancaína Anticuchos Pulpo anticuchero Choros a la chalaca Dessert not pictured Passion fruit cheesecake Alfajores All dishes were well made and it was scrumptious meal. We will surely plan a visit again!! Jan C

    Pulpo a la braza.

    Friendly service and great food. Will be back next time I'm in town. We are so glad we found this, my parents have lived in Florida for the past 16 years and this might be the first place we go to that they plan on going back to. Piscos need a little balance, good if you are looking to get drunk, but not so much to enjoy with your meal. Nonetheless they have plenty other options I would love to try next time.

    Food was outstanding, service was excellent and ambiance was mellow and low key. I highly recommend this spot, the portions are more than enough and the taste is pricesly what you can anticipate from this cuisine.

    The environment is very nice, but music was too loins for lunch time. Our waitress Rosnell was very friendly and help us with everything doubt we had. The corn snack they serve is very additive, salty and crunchy. I have never eaten leche de Tigre, so I cannot say if this is the right amount of salt, the ceviche was good, but the leche de Tigre was extremely salty and sour. My chicken with salad and rice was good and tasty. The lomo saltado tasted ok, the complain is just for the amount of protein for the price. A mix combination with 2 small pieces of meat, 2 of chicken and maybe 3 shrimps. A lot of onions and potatoes for $21. The base of the alfajor was a little burnt, dulce de leche inside was good.

While Bolay isn't as allergy-friendly as Fresh Kitchen, it's still a great choice for us. The portion sizes are perfect and the food is delicious! Each of the locations that I've visited are clean and have both indoor and outdoor seating, which makes for a great experience.

I love their efforts of being mindful of health. 100% gluten free, drinks without dyes & high fructose, no seed oils. 1. Temperature of food - majority of the time, certain items are consistently barely warm or flat out cold, even when it's a "fresh batch." For example, a new batch of sweet potatoes were extremely cold. You could tell they were not fresh. 2. Doneness of food - sweet potatoes, victim again. They are always undercooked and hardly edible. Are they not tasting their own food? They'd also be better if the skin was removed, as the skin makes them hard to chew. The broccoli is also very undercooked. Hard to chew and could use more flavor honestly. 3. Portion size - for the price, the portion sizes aren't matching. Depending on who is rationing out the food, you might still be hungry after. 4. Lack of multiple cooked vegetables - the only cooked vegetable offered is broccoli, which isn't even appealing. I wish they offered a variety of hot/cooked vegetable options. Aside from the tables always being dirty, the store is decently clean. The drink machine nozzles could use a more attention when it comes to cleaning. None of what I said stops me from eating there, just hope one day, I see a change.

We ordered a pizza, some tacos, a chicken entree and one of the specials. We started off with the artichoke dip. Portion sizes were good and the food came out hot.

It was quite full and a little noisy but as the meal went on it started clearing out. We ordered a few drinks and an appetizer for tonight's meal. The Chili Nachos were way better than expected. The nachos were piled high and the flavor of the chili was phenomenal. The nachos were so filling that's all we ate for dinner and we still had a good amount left over. The Watermelon Ranch Water was a nice refreshing lite drink, perfect for summer. I had to get a Nona Sunset because it's my fav drink every time I go to Canvas. Food and drinks were great, the only negative was that the server took longer to check on us, so we had to wait quite a bit in between when ordering each item.

We both liked the spinach dip and the chips were lightly seasoned well too. For the drinks, we got the baby blue cosmo and the espresso martini.
