Decided to give this spot a try, and man I'm sure glad that we did. From the ambience to the service and lastly to the food, everything was just down right incredible. You can tell they really have a good thing going here. The lomo was tender, delicious and packed with flavor. Their ceviche and chorizo were absolutely amazing. Finished with a chocolate cake for dessert. This is truly a great hidden gem. For those that don't know, they opened over a year ago, and I definitely will be back here to try more of their menu. Great Peruvian food, authentic and delicious. read more

I tried the rotisserie chicken for takeout tonight. Id rank it 3.5 out of 5 stars, with my biggest critique being that the chicken was dry (even for takeout). The green sauce was tasty although not quite at pio pio level. read more

I decided to place a Grubhub order for two dishes at 7 p.m. Prior to placing my order it said it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. So, I placed my order accordingly to ensure I would arrive in time. On my way there, the time was updated for my order to be complete at 7:30 p.m. No problem, I figured I'd just wait outside for a bit. After arriving I went in to pick up my order. I was told it wasn't ready and it would be another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes passed, I asked again and was told that it would be ready in another 20 minutes. At this point it is now around 45 minutes after placing my order. When I asked for my order to be cancelled (so I could receive a refund from Grubhub) the waitress would not do so. It was now 8:20 p.m. and I was still waiting at the restaurant with no food and no update. Personally, I feel that if it was communicated to me that the kitchen was swamped and the staff offered to have my order cancelled, I would have felt different. But this experience unfortunately left a sour taste in my mouth. I would not recommend going here unless you enjoy waiting for hours on end for your food. If I hadn't prepaid, I would have left. But I felt that the $88 I had paid was being held hostage. I hope the business owner can use this review as a learning experience on how to improve the customer experience. read more

Pacha - Order placed at 7 p.m., pick up time 7:20-7:30 p.m., 8:17 p.m. and still no food. - Peruvian Near Me - Mineola, New York

When we walked in on a Saturday evening, the place was empty. Empty on a Saturday evening? Is that a red flag? As my family and I were deciding whether to stay or not, we were burned too many times from these types of scenarios and were reluctant to go through that again. Then a lady from the back greeted us. Awww, what the heck? We had a long day and were hungry. How bad can the food be? The Google reviews were mostly trolls reviewing with low ratings and answered with witty and sarcastic replies from the business. Sarcasm is my kind of language. I ordered the Pollo A La Brasa 1/2 chicken entree with a side of rice and beans and ordered an additional side of maduros. We also ordered the skirt steak and chicken salad. The food came. The chicken salad was loaded with onions. There were enough onions to fill a plate. Must have been the market special with red onions. Wished it had avocados tho, that would have made it a bussin' salad. But no complaints on the salad except for the mountain of onions and no avocado. There was also alot of liquid at the bottom of the salad, did not look like dressing, looked like they rinsed the salad first with water or something. Was a clear liquid, not resembling lemon juice and oil. But, that's fine, no one died and we just poured the liquid out onto a spare plate. The skirt steak came with a side of chimichurri. My chicken dish was missing something. The Aji Verde sauce! I asked our hostess if there was aji verde sauce. Yep, she forgot and brought it out. I can say that the aji verde sauce was a highlight, I thought it was very fresh and not as processed as the aji verde sauce they serve at Pio Pio. The beans and rice are considered 2 separate sides, which I don't understand, since it goes together. The beans was in a broth, they weren't pinto beans, but a yellow bean. They didn't use sazon to season it, but that's fine, jt was still tasty. So 4 stars for me. As we enjoyed our meal even though there were a couple things that could have been an issue for another, but whatever, no one died and we left satisfied. read more

3.5 stars. Went today on a Friday night. Only had 1 other table there. I know this is a new restaurant so I won't be too harsh. We got their mon-fri dinner special - $21 for 3 courses. I got ceviche, lomo saltado, and the dessert of that day which is ice cream. The ceviche I really did not like, it was fish like tilapia? and kind of chewy (I'm used to a mixed of fish/shrimp?) the lomo saltado was a lot salty but honestly really good! I also had the seafood soup which was 10/10, had a lot of seafood and only $13! We also got some empanada, which is pretty good - nothing spectacular. Overall, I think the dinner special is pretty good deal and would come back if I was around the area! read more

Pacha - Lomo saltado - Peruvian Near Me - Mineola, New York

In my humble opinion, the food is just so so salty. I've tried other Peruvian places where the food is not as salty. However, the service is great and everyone is very friendly. Just their salt levels are too high for me. read more

Picked this place to meet up with some friends. Will took excellent care of us. Hard to be disappointed with Peruvian chicken and great sangria. Everyone had a great time. This would be a great place for date night. read more

Food was okay, but my experience was terrible. Everyone I spoke to was nice, but they were not helpful at all. Called to place an order for pick up, they told me place the order on the website, no problem. Order was placed; full rotisserie chicken, few sides, and skirt steak with sides. They outsource their delivery drivers to uber eats or doordash. Food arrived and the $35 steak was not there, when I called the restaurant they apologized for not packing it and they do not have a driver to deliver it. I asked for the $35 to be removed from the charge and they said they would reach out to the boss and get the charge removed. The charge was never removed. Bad experience and will not be giving them my business in the future. read more

Service was impeccable, portions were generous and the food was delicious and fresh. I'm Glad we weren't deterred by the place being nearly empty (!) read more

It was my first time going to Pacha. I went to dinner on a Monday evening so it was quiet and peaceful. Our waiter was very attentive, and the food was delicious. I ordered the anticuchos de corazon, which were to die for, and the ceviche mixto. Everthing was so flavorful and at a reasonable price. Looking forward to returning very soon read more

The food did not meet my expectations. Especially for the price I paid. And the waiter was very blunt for no reason.

Food is very good...have eaten here 4 times while scouting a dinner party for Peruvian fans. BUT--2 of 4 times I got wrong orders, and another time got wrong items on bill. SERVICE was non-existent; staff basically disappeared and there were LLLOOOOONNNG unexplained pauses between courses. read more

The food was delicious. There was a very long wait to be served because the waitress was working alone, on a busy Saturday night.. but truly worth the wait. She was very pleasant. The atmosphere was nice although the lighting was flickering some of the time. Perhaps intentional?! Overall, it was a pleasant experience. read more

Always great food and service. Had the steak with onions and tacu tacu...delicious! My parents loved it too (and they are hard to please). Will be ordering again very soon. read more

Delicious, authentic food. Kind service. They're new so some kinks; worth a try! Recommend!

Our server, Dominic, was absolutely amazing--so sweet and had such a calming energy. He kindly let us know there would be a wait for the food, which we completely understood since he seemed to be the only server working. We enjoyed the sangria while we waited--it was fantastic! Once the food arrived, it was absolutely worth the wait. Everything was incredible! The ambiance was perfect for a Sunday night, creating a relaxing atmosphere to celebrate my sibling's birthday with our parents. Highly recommend! read more
