The Best Peruvian Restaurants in Atlanta - Eater Atlanta
"Owned by Joseph Rosales (Mambo’s Cafe), Pisco Latin Kitchen offers Peruvian, Cuban, and a few Nikkei dishes on its menu, the latter blending Peruvian ingredients and dishes like ceviche with Japanese cooking and sushi preparation techniques. “Nikkei” refers to the descendants of Japanese immigrants throughout the world, some of whom arrived in Peru in the early 20th century. The two culinary cultures eventually merged together to create this distinct offshoot of Peruvian food. Expect a variety of ceviches, hearty seafood paellas, and Chinese-Peruvian wok dishes like chaufa and lo mein tossed with vegetables, along with tender churrasco steak, jalea mixta (fried seafood), and fettuccine verde with Peruvian pesto sauce. Pair with a traditional pisco sour or the restaurant’s take on the Hemingway daiquiri." - Beth McKibben
