El Pique Peruvian Restaurant & Bar

I find it very hard for me to find pros about this place. The only thing I will say is the chicken has good taste, even though it was dry. I visited last Wednesday at around 9 PM. What I was extremely disappointed in was the misinformation regarding their food prices. They gave us a regular menu which we all ordered from and had a certain expectation on what we were going to pay, however when the bill came it was much higher than we expected. Some items were almost double what the menu said. We brought this up to the waitress and she stated it was due to the night prices taking effect at around 7 pm (she couldn't tell us for certain). We all would've appreciated a heads up from her regarding the prices, or maybe if she had given us a night time menu with the night prices but we got nothing, nor did we see anywhere that there was a night time price change (I know this may not be her fault for which we didn't blame or "punish" her so we still left tips). This was however extremely misleading for which I find it very difficult for me to give this place more than a 2 star rating. As for me and my family, we won't be visiting this place again.

I was there last Sunday,server was amicable, but the food took forever and wh when it finally arrived was not so good. My buddy ordered la Carne aside and it was OK and I ordered El mendoza and it was terrible, I don't think the tripe and beef stomach was cleaned up properly cos it was slimy and half an hour after gave me the runs

It's a happy happy place - with great ambience, weekends post 12AM there are generally live music band performances which are amazing, food and beverages are very filling and yummy, and expect to see some very good moves on the dance floor by customers (surprisingly everyone seemed like an amazing dancer).

Is this a typical by star restaurant? No. But it gets them nevertheless. Let's first start with the food. Choosing solely from the Peruvian side of the menu, we started with an absolutely delicious fish ceviche. We got the smaller size but it was still a ton of food. Paired with the toasted corn for some texture and yam for sweetness this was in amazing dish. On to the steak and plantains with fried eggs, this was a flavorful and hearty dish. I wish the potatoes had been actual fried potatoes instead of plain French Fries. But the beef was so savory good. Churros for dessert and two people left there stuffed beyond belief for $45 including a generous tip. Why the tip? Because service was impeccable. Good information, friendly (despite some language barriers) and just over all made you feel like you were the reason they work there. The owner even stopped by. Decor was a very dive bar-like and they had 21 TV's playing loud Spanish music videos. But who cares? The experience was fantastic!
