"This Dupont Circle restaurant is a “dual concept” for modern Peruvian eats. The lower level, Mochica, is a Pisco and ceviche bar. Here eaters will find ceviches, such as Japanese-Peruvian Nikkei with tuna and wonton chips, and small plates. The second level, Nazca, is an upscale restaurant offering Thursday and Friday lunch, dinner Tuesday through Sunday, and Sunday brunch." - Julekha Dash

The atmosphere is quite nice. Upscale, but slow. My meal was about 20 minutes after the rest of my table was served. FYI..There is no children's menu but they do have stuff kids would like. The food was pricey but delicious. The kitchen must have screwed up cause the waiter was excellent.

Had a decent meal here, but a few things worth noting. 1. Every now and then I run into a restaurant that brings out all the food with lightning speed. This is one of those places. They brought our ceviche appetizer out within a couple minutes of ordering. Not sure why, but luckily I ordered the app first to avoid too-fast service. You'll definitely want to be a control freak with regard to service here if you don't want to be disappointed. 2. The Octopus also came out very fast, however we waited until we were ready to order it. Still, it came out so fast that the impression was it was meant for another table and given to us. The dish was good but a bit on the chewy side and a little salty. The portion was great. 3. The seafood rice was good but also too salty. Overall, with some minor service and food improvements, this place could be amazing.

I really like this little nook, located just a short walk from the main Dupont Circle area. I will say its pretty pricey (entrees and appetizers alike start at $20+). The lamb was overly salty, but overall the food was fresh and flavourful. My favourite thing about this place is the ambiance. A friend and I sat out on the patio and they have done a great job decorating the whole place.

My boyfriend and I went here for a date night and to try something new. We both loved it! The ceviche was amazing! For the main dish we split the Lomo Saltado, it was delicious! The dessert was quite tasty as well! Overall, I definitely recommend it!

This is a pretty fun Peruvian place. I tried both of the vegetarian options, the cauliflower dish and the gnocchi, both of which were good. The cauliflower tasted a bit Asian which was surprising but good. The maracuya fizz drink was excellent although very sweet. The pescado was perfect. We didn’t like the corn in the ceviche. The lomo saltado was very rich and delicious. Very good sauce. The portion sizes were small for the price, but we may come back.

The food was great and customer service was great too. Only reason I'm giving 4 starts is because of the lack of service for kids. I didn't know about this and took my nephew (2 years old) and there was no chair for him and also no plates everything is for adults. I would definitely come back but not with a baby/little kid as the restaurant is not prepared for it. We ordered Seco, ceviche, aguadito, mazamorra dearroz blanco, Everything was delicious. We spent around 130 for 2 adults including tips.

Really great! Ceviche was on point. Arroz con mariscos was tasty: has a satisfying, well balanced heat. Beef tenderloin is addictive. I'm ready for more!

The food was fantastic. I had the gnocchi with meat. So delicious and well cooked. The drinks where a little lacking in flavor and size for the price. Atmospheres was great. Had a nice “at-home “ del to it The only reason I give it 3 stars is the service. They must have been understaffed. Being sat took about 20 mins . Ordering drinks was 20 min wait. Then a long wait for ordering. It really kind of ruined the experience.
