One of my favorite spots along the coast and probably one of the best ocean views you can get from a restaurant in Pacifica! And a bonus that it's Peruvian food! I've made my way through a bit of the menu, but on a typical gloomy day in Pacifica, for me, nothing beats the aji de gallina. The ceviches and empanadas are unbeatable. I'm also a mac n' cheese fiend, and thoroughly enjoyed their Macaroni with huancaina sauce. The staff is always friendly and inviting. I love bringing new people here. read more

Food was tasty, but one of us has a shellfish allergy, and it turned out that very little of the menu could be made safe for her to eat. My friend and I split the Plaintains, squid ink pasta with seafood, and a pork dish, all of which was good. Allergic friend had a plate piled with veggies, and she said it was good. The friend who had the bronzino said it was great. Service was fairly attentive, except that we had a fifth person join us late, and it would've been ideal if someone had come to take his order sooner. Drinks: I had an NA beer, which was nice, but one friend hated the white wine he ordered - if they'd had him taste it before bringing him a glass, that would've been better. My other friends had mojitos and said they didn't like the coconut rum, and would've preferred if it hadn't been flavored. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance on a Sunday night was the same as I remembered when I went a year earlier - mostly groups eating near us, large TVs on the far wall showing soccer.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not a quiet place I'd want to go on a date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Note that this place is not cheap - entrees run around $40 each. read more

What a phenomenal surprise. Being on the same property as a hotel, our expectations were tempered. There during Happy Hour, we had the ceviche, empanadas, and a couple of Pisco Sours -- the house cocktail (a fizzy whiskey sour type of drink that might be my new favorite). Everything was top notch. We followed with a side of Plantain Fritos (a little sneaky that they're noted as the right complement to the ceviche though not on the HH menu. No big deal because they were worth it. Emmanuela (sp?) provided excellent service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And, almost forgot because everything was great -- the view, even from inside, is stellar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Looking forward to creating some reason to return. read more

Adjusting to 3.5 because they have a bad wasp problem if you are sitting out on the patio. It made for an uncomfortable eating experience. Staff confirmed there is a nest out there which is concerning because wasps bite!! The staff, however, were kind to move us indoors which I appreciate. But a heads up to anyone sitting outside. Maybe just sit inside. We had the Aji de Gallena 4/5 Beef heart skewers (came back for this 5/5) Platanos 3/5 read more

Puerto 27 - Great Food with a View The food was delicious and the ocean view is stunning -- perfect for a relaxing meal.

Ordered the Quinoa Chaufa adding steak, but it had no flavor. No salt, no pepper, no flavoring spices of any kind. Also the steak itself had no flavor either, it was flavorless and was tough to chew. As my family member said when she tried it said it felt fibrous. Ya like a continuous.fiber strand of meat, tough to cut and chew. I definitely would not recommend this dish, even as a vegetarian tho I did add meat. The rice quinoa part was equally flavor-less. read more

Had a wonderful lunch here for my niece's birthday! The best thing we had was the grilled octopus. It may be the best octopus I've had, perfectly cooked with an excellent char 10/10. The group loved the crispy fried whole branzino 9/10. Fried plantains were standard but still great 8/10. Ceviche was fresh with loads of fish and shrimp and paired with plantain chips 8.5/10. Chicharron de Pollo is basically fried nuggets, almost has a Chinese flavor because of the 5 spice 7.5/10. My other fave was the Parihuela which is a seafood bouliabaise. Loads of seafood and delicious broth. You should eat this with some rice 8.5/10. The only disappointment was the mushroom empanadas, they were a little bland, they were filled with mushrooms, but strangely lacked the flavor 5/10. The view is amazing to match the food. read more

My friends and I came in for lunch and unfortunately the experience was underwhelming. The food was hit or miss. My Pollo a la Brasa (1/2 chicken portion) was very good, juicy and flavorful. However, the Lomo Saltado was overly salty and the Paella lacked seasoning and had a surprisingly small portion of protein. The biggest issue was the service. We waited far too long for our drinks, appetizers, and entrees and it was difficult to flag down a server for anything. The long waits and lack of attentiveness really took away from what could have been an enjoyable meal. read more

There are limited dining options in Pacifica aside from fast dining restaurants and adding the "dogs allowed" really narrowed down to an even smaller number. When visiting the coast, eating seafood is on the itinerary. Puerto's menu had a lot of dishes I liked. My own rule is if I see branzino on the menu, I must order. We also ordered the mushroom empanadas, oysters, paella, and the branzino. All the items were scrumptious. The stew that coated the branzino plate had a nice kick. The fish was meaty and had a nice crispy skin. The empanadas were so delicious. The cheese and mushroom went well together. The oysters were a mix of large and small, with miso vinaigrette and cocktail sauce. They were ok. The food was great overall. Our waiter was very personable and attentive. The restaurant was packed inside with happy diners. They also have a balcony to enjoy the view, when the fog doesn't obstruct the beach. Note, it's next to PCH so the traffic noise can be distracting. Wish there was some music to mask the rumbling of engines and create an ambiance outside. Perhaps there's a city ordinance against public noise. We ended up played our own music at a low volume. read more

I've been here a few times, mostly for the view TBH. Its a big plus that the food and beverages are pretty good. Its defo tourist pricing and they have some GF options which is nice. Sometimes there's a bit of a wait to get seated but the staff have always been nice so its on my list of places to go. They also have parking which is a big win in this area. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice big place with high ceilings and a beautiful, spacious dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is right by the beach, but interestingly you can't really see much of the ocean from most of the seating. The patio and indoor layout don't fully capitalize on the view.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is solid and pretty much what you'd expect -- seafood dishes like ceviche, bouillabaisse, and lomo saltado. Prices are also what you'd expect for the location: about $35 for entrées and around $20 for cocktails. Overall, not amazing, not bad -- just about what you'd expect. read more

They serve rather mediocre food (ceviche is the only good thing on their menu). Pulled pork dish - the meat was dry, medium rare burger turned out to be well done, side fries - cold, soft, disgusting, salmon dish lacked flavor. And don't get me started with their service - the slowest possible. We waited for our main dishes for over an hour and a half. read more

It was a busy Friday night and we had a group of like seven and we didn't have a reservation and didn't call ahead and they seemed busy but they still got us sat pretty quickly. The service and food was really good. I've never had this style of food or been here before, but I did really love what I ordered and I think everybody else at the table did as well. I also have to say sometimes our group can be stereotyped and I felt like they treated us great and just like everyone else and I really appreciated that. read more

Sooooooooo delicious! My husband took me here for an anniversary dinner before a walk on the beach. Everything we had was AMAZING - the torquenos and their mustard sauce, the lomo saltado and adobo, and the southern belle peach cocktail.

The waiter wished us a happy anniversary and brought a candle in our dessert. Overall so much fun. Would recommend. read more

This review needs a bit of context. This was a date night with my wife, and while the service ranged from good to okay, communication was lacking in several important moments. To start, my wife's meal arrived roughly 15 minutes before mine, which immediately set the tone for the evening. (-1 star) 1) Missing ingredients with no prior notice; I ordered a steak salad that is described on the menu as including blue cheese. At the time of ordering, there was no mention that any ingredients were unavailable. After a few bites, I politely asked the server for additional blue cheese. Only then was I informed--via the server, after checking with the manager--that they were completely out of blue cheese and could substitute feta instead. Blue cheese and feta are not interchangeable, and the blue cheese is the reason I ordered this particular salad, having enjoyed similar versions elsewhere. My wife ultimately asked them to remake the salad without dressing so we could take it home and add blue cheese ourselves to get the full experience. The salad with steak is $29, and we were still charged the full price despite a key ingredient being unavailable. For perspective, there is a Safeway less than a mile away. (-2 stars) 2) Happy hour confusion Who doesn't enjoy happy hour? However, when a cocktail is listed on the menu, the staff should know the ingredients--especially the alcohol being used. In this case, they did not. I ended up selecting bottled options instead, but the pricing was not adjusted for happy hour. (This is a communication issue which is already accounted for in a star loss.) Overall The food itself is decent, but communication is lacking. Be cautious, as you may not receive exactly what you ordered unless you proactively raise concerns. read more

Had another wonderful meal here! Ordered the pescado a lo macho and ceviche again, both were outstanding. Service was so fabulous, I appreciated our server so much and wish I could remember his name. He took our order swiftly and was able to accommodate our requested substitution of saffron rice instead of jasmine rice in our pescado a lo macho entree. A wonderful spot, probably the best Peruvian food I've had in the Bay Area. read more

Meh- this place is just average. Nothing super fantastic from the service to the food. I went in on a busy not foggy saturday and was able to sit outside and it was really nice but the service was really slow. Then we ordered and the food from a table that ordered after us came out first and on a hungry saturday, I was not too pleased but the empanadas were just average. the sauce was really good. The rangoon wonton things look like they were filled with a lot but honestly, it was too much. they were just unproportionally divided to what the wrapper was and they should just make more wrapper smaller and give more as a quantity then more in each one. read more

We sat outside and the view cannot be beat. A perfect coastline dinner We left there very pleased and would highly recommend read more

Puerto 27 is one of the rare establishments that really is a triple threat -- a gorgeous space with great food and plenty of seating. It's a terrific spot for a big group with a festive, sunny environment and plenty of beach-y vibes to bring home the fresh seafood aesthetic. When it comes to places like this I am all about the ceviche, and their Ceviche Trio is the way to go to truly try all of the uniquely vibrant flavors Puerto 27 has to offer. Without a doubt my favorite of the three is the Ceviche Puerto with its bold, creamy leche de Tigre base and robust flavor bursting with fresh herbs and fishy flare. The Nikkel is really well executed, and I enjoy it, but the ahi tuna with soy-ponzu has such a distinct Japanese influence it isn't really what I'm craving when getting ceviche; yet it's tasty and salty fun nonetheless. The ceviche has got to be served with a big basket of plantain chips, which are among the best I've ever had. Served freshly fried from the kitchen they come out just a touch warm, striking the perfect balance of sliced thin enough to be easy to eat yet thick enough to bring a big crunch. The empanadas, Puerto pasta, and Avocado Crabwich all passed with flying colors for the rest of my party. Something to note: their fries are the closest to In N Out that I have ever had outside of an In N Out. In N Out fries are divisive, so take that for what you will when ordering -- you may need to ask for them to be a little extra crispy if you prefer a less floppy potato like myself. read more

Came in for dinner and service was really quick. The food was really tasty but portions weren't that big and everything was on the pricey side.

Beautiful view, poor service, mediocre food We came on a very busy Saturday night, so we had to wait 45 minutes. It was expected, so we didn't mind waiting. We ended up getting seated outside, where we had a beautiful view of the beach. Once seated it took an additional 30 minutes to get our orders taken. The worst part is our actual waitress never took our order or checked in on us, I believe one of the managers had to help us the whole time. He was apologetic on her behalf which we greatly appreciated. The food was not worth waiting over an hour for unfortunately. When considering the high prices, the quality of the food did not reflect the price. We order the ceviche, which was my favorite out of everything we ordered, the burger and quinoa fried rice. Overall, all the dishes were fine, but not worth returning to. read more

We stopped for dinner after a gorgeous drive down US1 ... we were tired and sad that the fog had risen so our hopes for a gorgeous sunset were gone. But: this restaurant would have had the most amazing sunset views on a clear day!! So keep that in mind! Anyway: we started to drown our sorrows with a Pisco Sour. I am Peruvian. Their Pisco Sour was amazing!! Beware ! We wanted to taste several classics, so we ordered Anticuchos, Jalea and a Lomo Saltado... and I am happy to give everything a 5 star rating! (Except their ají amarillo sauce that was hot but not seasoned) The food was beautifully plated, hot, yummy! The anticuchos are not huge, so a great portion size for an appetizer. The Lomo Saltado is nice sized for an Entree and the Jalea has some (few) fish cubes, shrimp, scallops... everything very fresh and lightly breaded! Good stuff!! Go there and don't forget their Pisco Sour!! Enjoy! read more

Fabulous Peruvian restaurant with fantastic ocean views, welcoming staff, wonderful ambiance and yummy food! FYI - HH is indoors only - Weds thru Sun 3pm - 6pm! :0) There is a nice outdoor patio with ocean views and heat lamps for cold evenings, but it was too hot and sunny for me at 3:30pm the other day, so I decided to go inside for the HH menu! I'm glad that I did! I had such a great time talking to some regular locals who come here often for HH and dinner after. Thank You also to Pedro for explaining the artwork and the story of how the restaurant and name arose. I used to go further South to La Costanera in Montara long, long ago for their HH and dinners. While I still miss their old, gorgeous location and their amazing food and drink, I'm glad that I discovered this beautiful, new place that I'll be coming back to often! :0) The ambiance is relaxing and welcoming and the service is friendly, attentive and efficient here. I LOVE the cold, refreshing Pisco Sours and the Ceviche, ESP the Lèche de Tigre "soup"! Just say YUM! I was kind of hungry and thirsty after the gorgeous mini walk/hike across the way, so for HH - I had 3 Pisco Sours, 2 Ceviche's and 1 Jaleita. It worked out perfectly! I wish they put more fish in the Ceviche, but it's still very tasty due to the Lèche de Tigre! YUM! The Jaleita was tasty and it was a nice large portion, but I was bummed that there wasn't much fish or crab that I noticed. The tartar sauce could use a little revamp to add more flavor. I decided to ask for a Hot Sauce (not Tabasco), but this was awful so I landed up just ordering another Tartar sauce. Thank you for the wonderful 1st time visit! I look forward to returning soon and will spread the word about your great restaurant! :0) read more

When my daughter and I visit Pacifica, we always make sure to make our first stop at Puerto 27. The restaurant is at a perfect location overlooking the beach, parking is super easy, the ambience is so relaxing after a long 2 - 3 hour drive, and the food is consistently good. My daughter drinks water like crazy, so we also appreciate the small details like water bottles at the table and how quick staff are to refill them. My favorite are the plantains with the yummy dipping sauce and any drink special they have going on. Servings are plentiful and the staff is always super nice. I only marked off one star because the bathrooms do need more attention each time we've visited. Otherwise, it's not enough to keep us away. If there was an option to only mark down half a star, then this would be a 4.5 star review. read more
