Sunnyside, Queens · Est. 2023
A family-run Peruvian kitchen and pisco bar on Greenpoint Ave. Ceviche cut to order, chicken turned over the fire, and a sour that changes colour in the glass.
Sunnyside, Queens
We cook the Peru we grew up with — the coastal kitchen of ceviche and leche de tigre, the smoke of the anticuchera grill, and the chifa tradition that has been quietly Peruvian for more than a century.
It's a family table on Greenpoint Ave, in a room that used to be an Irish pub. Come hungry, stay for the pisco.

Ceviche, cut to order
Nothing sits. Fish is cut when you order it and cured in lime right then, so it arrives firm and sharp and cold — the way it's eaten on the coast.
It's the dish guests name more than any other, across every platform we're on. Start with the mixto if you want the whole ocean on one plate.
Wok, grill, rotisserie
Lomo saltado is a stir-fry, and it has to be cooked like one — the pan hot enough that the beef takes colour before the onion softens.
Alongside it: anticuchos off the grill, and pollo a la brasa marinated in our own recipe and turned slowly over the fire until the skin gives.
Pisco is in our name for a reason
Peru's grape brandy, shaken with lime and egg white into a sour — then pushed sideways five different ways. The butterfly one changes colour in the glass. The mora is blackberry, and it's the one people come back for.
From the kitchen
What guests mention most
The ceviche
Freshness of the ceviche is the single most repeated compliment across every platform we appear on.
The pisco sours
Guests single out the range — especially the butterfly and the blackberry mora.
The welcome
Attentive service comes up constantly, and so does the owner stopping by the table.
The plates people come back for
Lomo saltado, anticuchos, and the rotisserie chicken are named as favorites more than anything else.
Celebrations
Birthdays and quinceañeras turn up often in reviews — the room takes well to a party.
Come see us
Heated seating outside, a private room for a party, and a bar that stays open till midnight on weekends.
