food was great , service was even better. bartende alexis was super helpful. 10/10 would recommend

I stopped in here for a drink and snack. The empanadas were great and served with a garlic cilantro aoli were delicious! The drink I got was the Pretty & Pink and that too was delicious! The service at the bar was exceptional, bartender Alexis was friendly and attentive. The decor here was upscale and touches of Peru around the place. read more

We stopped into Pisco after a long drive from North Carolina, looking for something quick and local. We've been a few times before, and the food has always been great. This visit was no exception -- the food was genuinely excellent. That said, the business model is starting to feel aggressive. Every interaction is an upsell opportunity, and you quickly realize you're on high alert the entire meal, almost battling the server at every turn just to avoid quietly running up the bill. It starts the moment you sit down: "Is bottled water okay?" -- which, of course, is an upcharge. When we ordered Pisco Sours, instead of just bringing the standard version, the server recommended the Peruvian one, about $5 more. For starters, my wife wanted a chicken dish, but the server suggested a beef dish, mentioning it could be made with chicken instead. The catch: there was no price reduction for swapping to chicken, leaving us paying $12 more than the original chicken dish would have cost. I had the Lomo Saltado, which was fantastic, and asked for fries instead of the yellow potatoes. I don't mind an upcharge -- but it would have been nice to be told upfront. A simple "there's a small upcharge for that" would have been fine. They also take photos of you at the table, which is pleasant enough on its own, but by then you're conditioned to wonder what it's going to cost. When the check arrived, an 18% gratuity had already been added, with the option to tip more on top. We declined to add extra. The food really is excellent, and we may go back for that reason alone. But be prepared to stay on your toes -- every choice seems designed to nudge the bill higher, and you'll spend the meal defending your wallet rather than relaxing into it. read more

A friend and I went to Pisco Peruvian for dinner and had a wonderful experience. We sat on their garden patio which was decorated beautifully with greenery hanging from the ceiling and large ornate mirrors. We sat in a big round booth which was spacious and comfy. Service was wonderful, our server was friendly and answered all of our silly questions and didn't laugh at us when we butchered the words of the ingredients in dishes. She checked on us often and provided suggestions to make sure we got plates we would enjoy. The cocktail menu.....wow! It was so beautiful visually and the drinks came out looking just like the photos! They tasted great too! It's apparent that time and care went into every decision on this menu. As for food, we started with the croquettes. They came four to an order and it was the perfect amount of food to hold us over until our entrees came. Our entrees came out and we were both surprised by the portions! I got the Chaufa Charapa and it came in a beautiful stone bowl. The portion was huge, it just kept going and going! My friend got salmon and it was the biggest piece of salmon i've seen served at a restaurant. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals and had leftovers to take home. Overall we were thoroughly impressed with all aspects of Pisco Peruvian and can't wait to return! read more

The food was really good but I didn't like the business model that there were so many up charges since the food is already expensive on its own. For example, we ordered an appetizer of dip with chips. Other restaurants give chips refills for free but there were only a few chips included and we didn't know a refill would cost $5. Our server told us the 2nd time we asked for a refill and the refill wasn't even a lot of chips. The ambiance is really nice and upscale but the underlying penny-pinching business model seems like a mismatch for the vibe of the place. Also, when we went in the restaurant wasn't even a quarter full but they wanted to seat us outside which had bugs. We had to insist for us to be seated inside. The lady said there were reservations made so I gave them grace but the restaurant remained pretty bare for about the next hour. Then there was a photographer taking pictures of tables and he only went to certain tables- he didn't go to ours. It was a good first try but my family and I likely won't eat there again. read more

Excellent place to eat and have a great time! Enjoyed the menu and drinks. I had the Duck Chaufa. My husband had Zoe's ado al Macho. Both delicious. We ate until we couldn't eat more. Portions are a good size. I ended taking home some of the Duck Chaufa because it was a lot of rice. Drinks were outstanding. Waitress Paulo was excellent offering plenty options and recommending based on our conversation. His service was excellent!! Ambiance is great at this place. read more

TLDR: Great food marred by slow/lousy service. Chic environment with both indoor and outdoor seating. FOOD: I really enjoyed the food. I ordered the hummus (came with fried wontons to dip in the hummus instead of traditional vegetables or bread), vegetarian sushi & side of tostones. The food is VERY pricey for Lake Mary and Central Florida. The only thing I would change is adding a sauce with the side of tostones. It felt like it was missing something. SERVICE: The service was awful. They were nice enough, but the whole service was slow. We arrived at 12:15, and we were there until 2:15 pm during lunch on a Wednesday. They chalked it up to a large table of 10-12 people, but the large group (sitting next to us) got their entrees very early in our time at the table - before we had already ordered. The server spilled small puddles of water all over the table and didn't come back to clean it up. I ended up using a napkin to clean it up. Our appetizers came out quickly, but the entrees took forever. They apologized and offered dessert. We were a party of 5, and they expected us to share one dessert as a recovery for the disastrous service. That took even longer to get the dessert and then the check. The check could have been presented sooner, but instead, the server was putting tables back together and singing happy birthday to another table. We had to flag them down - just a prioritization issue. Would I go back? Absolutely not. What a shame. The food was great, but it wasn't worth the headache that came from it. read more

This Peruvian restaurant is absolutely amazing! They're serving bold flavors and delicious creations! The crispy rice is an awesome starter. The smoked salmon gives it a depth of flavor that contrasts well with the avocado mousse and cream cheese. I especially liked the chaufa de pato ahumado since the smoked duck was so juicy and flavorful on the fried rice - highly recommend this dish. The fried snapper was beautifully crispy, but I feel needs an acidic sauce on the side as the fish wasn't seasoned much. The yucca fries were so crispy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside - perfection. I will definitely be coming back to this place! The staff was very nice and the decor in the restaurant is goregeous! read more

The ambiance? 28 stars The service? 10000 stars The food? Innumerable stars We stopped here for a quick day date and my God, I cannot wait to come back. Our server, Mauricio, was so pleasant and fast. He had excellent customer service-- kind but not overbearing, really helpful, and had great recommendations. We got the seasonal Grinch cocktail-- watermelon, pineapple, Tito's, and passion fruit foam. It was delicious. I got the ribeye anticuchero with truffle fries. I have really never had a better steak in my life. So tender, PERFECTLY seasoned, and a great portion. Same for the fries. My husband got their poke bowl. He asked for cream cheese on the side and then realized the bowl had little fried balls of cream cheese which every single poke place should do always. It was such a great touch. For dessert, we got the chocolucuma, which had a brownie base but a Peruvian fruit (that tastes like coffee) encased in chocolate. While we were enjoying that, we chatted with the bartender who gave us tips on making foam at home and let us try some he had made. We left feeling full, slightly buzzed, and VERY well taken care of. We can't wait to come back! read more

Such a great new addition to the Lake Mary scene. The vibes and decor of this restaurant are fantastic. Bright lights and beauty everywhere. The menu is extensive. We ordered drinks, the scallops app and a couple rolls. The food did not disappoint. Our server was also incredibly friendly and eager to answer any questions we had. My only gripe is the prices. It was on the hefty side for the portion but other than that no complaints. Also they have patio seating and i was told are dog friendly for well behaved, leashed dogs. read more

Pisco Peruvian Gastrobar in Lake Mary is such a vibe. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance felt upscale but still fun, perfect for a date night or girls' night out. The ceviche was super fresh and perfectly balanced, and the lomo saltado was tender and seasoned so well. Portions were solid and beautifully plated. Drinks were also a highlight, the pisco sour was smooth and strong (the way it should be), and the cocktail menu has a lot of creative options. Service was attentive without being overbearing, and everything came out in great timing. It's a little on the pricier side, but for the quality, atmosphere, and experience, it feels worth it. Definitely a great spot in Lake Mary when you want good food, good drinks, and a fun night out. I'll be back! read more

I would give a million stars if I could. It's been so long since I've had an absolutely perfect experience out. From the second we walked in, til we walked out, it was absolute perfection. Marcos and Simon made the evening so special. Every single person on the wait staff engaged and were incredibly friendly. The ambiance, cocktails, appetizers, entrees, dessert.. just perfect. They cleaned the tables immediately, were incredibly attentive, welcoming and knowledgeable. It was evident that everyone genuinely cared about the experience. It was a beautiful evening. And I cannot rave enough about the food. It is my absolute new favorite restaurant and the prices were very reasonable with hefty portions and fresh flavorful food. I WILL be back! read more

This was my first time trying a Peruvian restaurant. I went with a group of friends one of which recommended the place. The restaurant is nicely decorated and gives the vibe of classier than casual dining but not quite upscale. Tables are pretty close together. If it's busy you're likely to be back to back or elbow to elbow with those dining near you. Every employee we interacted with was very nice. We had a few small issues (wrong cocktail, mixup with food, etc) that were corrected after we brought them up. We all ordered the 16oz ribeye based on the friend's recommendation. I enjoyed mine. I should have taken the full recommendation and got extra butter. It definitely enhanced the flavor of the steak. Unfortunately two of the steaks came out well done. The staff apologized and cooked new ones. My friends were understanding and all was well. The manager gave the table a round of shots for the inconvenience. I don't feel right rating the Peruvian restaurant based on steak and plantains. read more

This is an ideal spot for date night, and Saturdays are even better with a DJ setting the vibe. The ceviche was incredibly fresh, and the chaufa de pato ahumado came in a generous portion with duck cooked perfectly. The drink menu and glasses are so cute and Instagram worthy. Delicious food, great drinks, and an inviting ambiance. Don't skip the side of hot sauce, it's seriously spicy, but absolutely worth it. read more

Its a nice restaurant which is why I went there. But they are way overpriced for what you get. It was $100 for three for lunch, and we didnt order a lot of extras. But what got me is they added an automatic 18% gratuity and its so small on the menu I didnt see it. How insulting. They assume the customer is too cheap to tip. I would have tipped 20% but if they want 18% then thats what they got. However it made me decide to warn others of what I consider to be an obnoxious policy. read more

New peruvian restaurant in Lake Mary. The offer a good variety of ceviches and typical Peruvian dishes. Quality of food is good but a bit pricey for the area. I tried the salmon ceviche..my favorite. Chicken croquetas..like the taste but not the fan of one of the sauces the put underneath. Sauces should be put on the side so the "croqueta" doesn't get mushy. My friends tried other dishes as well. There was some live entertainment while we were there, it was nice. Be aware that they will add a tip automatically to the tab and won't tell you. My meal ...1 appetizer, 1 ceviche, and 1 drink I paid around $70..yikes. read more

Came here to meet our couple friends for dinner on a Saturday 5:45 reservation. It wasn't busy yet so we were seated right away. The ambiance is so nice inside. It's tastefully decorated. They have plenty of tables inside and out. Their cocktails are tasty, but pricey, average $20/drink. The old fashioned was very good. They use McCallan whiskey, it was well balanced with the mix. The dishes we ordered were all good, no complaints. Service was good. The only reason for less star is the price for what you get and the annoying flashing of the photographer going around the table. Yes, they have a photographer asking if you want photos taken. We politely declined, but the other nearby tables did and the flash was like a strobe light every time a picture is taken. It almost giving us a headache not to mention the shutter of the camera. It's definitely a place to celebrate not a regular dinner destination. read more

We visited with some Peruvian friends the other week. The food was very good. Our party ordered a nice variety of dishes and everyone for the most part enjoyed what they ordered. My one son wasn't that big of a fan of a sushi roll he gave, but he was expecting more of a Japanese style sushi roll flavor- these are very different and unique. The seafood tasted fresh. We really enjoyed snacking on the fried corn while waiting on the meal. Our waitress was great. She was helpful and gave great recommendations -especially letting us know her favorite desserts (for our next visit! We were so stuffed). As you can see, the presentation is also very beautiful. read more

Peruvian food is our absolute favorite, and this place truly did it justice! We started with the papas nativas, perfectly seasoned native potatoes with a creamy guac and cayena sauce that blew us away. Then we shared a ceviche clásico that tasted incredibly fresh, with the spice thoughtfully served on the side, a great touch! For entrees, we had the wagyu saltado with jasmine rice and tostones, crispy, flavorful, and super satisfying. I had the risotto a la huancaina, which was rich, creamy, and perfectly cooked. And for dessert I don't remember the name, but it was so delicious, creamy, not overly sweet, just the perfect finish. On top of the amazing food, the service was fantastic. Gabriela, our server, was absolutely wonderful, warm, attentive, and made great recommendations throughout the evening. We absolutely adored our experience. Incredible food, great vibes, and outstanding service. We'll definitely be back! read more

My husband and I were looking to try a new place to eat and came across Pisco Peruvian Gastrobar in Lake Mary. We're so glad we did! First, I have to say I was very impressed with the ambiance and the service. The restaurant itself has an upscale, inviting atmosphere. Our server, Andrea, was simply outstanding -- warm, attentive, and very professional. She truly elevated our dining experience. She even kindly offered to clean one of my shrimp for me -- such a thoughtful touch! As for the food, it was equally impressive. We started with the Empanadas de Lomo Saltado -- absolutely delicious! For our main courses, my husband enjoyed the Lomo Saltado, while I had the Chaufa Aeropuerto with Seafood. Both dishes were full of flavor and beautifully presented. We accompanied our meal with two Cokes (note: no refills provided) and a beer. Overall, we left very satisfied with both the food and the service. However, there was one detail that did catch us off guard -- and I feel it's worth mentioning. When the bill arrived, we noticed that an automatic 18% gratuity had been added, even though it was just the two of us. While I understand and fully support rewarding great service (which Andrea definitely provided), I believe it would be good etiquette for the restaurant to clearly communicate this policy upfront. Additionally, the bill prompted us to add extra gratuity (2%, 3%, or 5%) -- which felt a bit expected and left my husband with a less-than-pleasant impression. We felt a little uncomfortable, as this was not communicated earlier. In the future, a simple heads-up about the automatic gratuity would help guests feel more informed and comfortable -- and it would likely lead to a more generous and willing extra tip, rather than an awkward moment. That said, we truly enjoyed our meal, the atmosphere, and especially Andrea's service. We would return again -- now knowing what to expect regarding the bill. read more

It's really good but very expensive. Be ready to pay a pretty penny. The food is really good there. I've been there a few times and I have to say that the lady servers are much better than the men servers. They communicate a lot better and take their time to explain if you have any questions about the menu. The men that work there however, don't communicate very well. They don't tell you when certain things are going to have an up charge if you're not familiar with the menu, and their drinks. I think that's the only thing that they really need to improve on but otherwise the ambience and the food is phenomenal just very pricey. read more
