"Open for: Dinner Price range: $$$$ Suyo gathers the talents of Peruvian ex-Ancora chef Ricardo Valverde, award-winning ex-Botanist bartender Max Curzon-Price, and front of house veteran James Reynolds. The Main Street restaurant’s menu is a lot like its crack team: Exceptionally good ingredients add up to an even greater whole. Hotly anticipated — and immediately packed since opening in summer 2022 — Suyo’s modern take on Peruvian cuisine looks, tastes, and smells radically different from anything else in the city right now. That all comes at a cost, with mains around the $50-60 mark. Splurge if you can, or stop by the small bar to enjoy imaginative cocktails inspired by the peoples and landscapes of Peru, accompanied by sublime charred octopus and zingingly fresh ceviche. Best for: A third date with someone who loves food as much as you." - Nikki Bayley
"SUYO provides nonalcoholic options with complex, bold flavors inspired by the founder's personal experiences, creating a full experience for all guests." - Kevin Chau
"A sophisticated Peruvian restaurant known for its vibrant and rustic dishes in a greenery-filled setting." - Michael He
"This modern Peruvian restaurant is narrow and loud, with a tiny kitchen that’s putting out some of the best dishes in the city. The classic ceviche has juicy hunks of Haida Gwaii halibut, and yuca fries come served with huancaina and kabayaki sauce rather than ketchup and mustard. The cocktails are designed to represent different regions of Peru—from the Andean mountains to the Amazonian rainforest—and you can even sip tepache made from all the bar trimmings out of a gourd. It’s the perfect place to bring a group of friends, especially the ones who will let you eat off their plate." - carolyn b heller, amber gibson
