On a chilly Saturday night, I decided to try the new Peruvian place, La Peruana Cevicheria, close…read moreto home and in a few blocks I was inside this colourful restaurant with an extremely friendly bar - the 2 versions of pisco I tried were really nice and not small when it came to serving size. Ask the bartender for his recommendations and he definitely knows how to pamper you. The ambient is laid back, Spanish music in the background and the place is good for quilt bites or small groups (max 4 recommended). Wasn't very hungry so just tried the 'Ceviche Mixto' - the flavours really pop and it's a very nicely served individual portion - you could share it but you wouldn't want to. La Peruana is originally a food truck that has now opened 'cevicherias' - fixed restaurants. The principal staff like the ceviche chef, barman etc are Peruvian and they do a great job. One place I have to return !

Was having a craving for something a bit lighter and fresher than my recent meals, so headed a few…read moreblocks from my hotel to this place. It wasn't too crowded when I arrived shortly after 7pm, but it soon became pretty full, reflecting its apparent popularity. I wasn't too sure how to order--are the ceviches intended as a starter or a main, and what size is everything?--but the staff are helpful, and I decided to have anticuchos of veal heart as a starter, followed by the ceviche mixto, and see how I got on with that. I also ordered a Pisco sour, of course. The anticuchos come as two skewers with four slices of meat on each, together with a spicy sauce. This was really excellent, with deep flavours, good texture and just the right amount of food. The ceviche came next, and it looked wonderful, with bright colours and plated appealingly. I sat at the bar, so I saw the chef make each batch of ceviche to order, tasting the marinade each time to make sure it was well balanced between citrus, salt and spice. Mine was surely excellent, and I decided there was no need to have anything else. Pricing is very reasonable, too.

The real deal of Peruan food. The meal is delicious, big portions and all about classic receipt…read more The plates are so tasteful! All the staff are from Peru; what makes the experience even more credible! The place is simple, loud and it's not about cozy, comfortable and beauty, only taste! Price is another great point: extremely honest. Believe. A con is that it's always extremely full and have line to seat. Just be aware about it. I've tried many dishes and You must choose the classic Ceviche. Also all the plates with rice and do not get out there without trying the homemade Alfajor. It's a must.

The 'Pisco Sour' is strong as it's supposed (although I have had better), Great 'Ceviche', and the best 'Causa Rellena' I've ever tried. Very quick service too.

You would not start your day by having ceviche for breakfast, but here (in theory) it is possible…read more Using fresh ingredients form other shops of the market, you can select fish or seafood as the base of your ceviche and the sauce out of 4 options. For those who are not into raw fish, pork ribs with either potatoes or sweet corn are a good choice. The taste is by far very good, and prices are quite fair, specially by considering the neighborhood where it is located. And on Saturdays, make sure to try the oysters, served with a special sauce. You order first and then wait for your order number to be called. So it is somehow a mix of grab and go and fast food restaurant with a small area for you to have your meal. It is always packed by lunch time on Saturdays, but if you want to have either a late lunch or an early dinner, I recommend going around 5:30 pm to enjoy the best of Comedoria Gonzales with no hurry and enough space to accommodate yourself in one of their tables.

Once you get past the 'mercadão' and get to the the place, its actually very practical, clean and bustling with customers, even on a nondescript Tuesday. They don't have table service, so you got to decide what you feel like eating/drinking - options range from several ceviches to peruvian sandwiches & drinks, line up at the counter (which is where they loose a star due to it being really slow), order & pay and wait for them to shout out your token number. The orders didnt take too long to get processed. They have a small tables around the place or if you're lucky (as we were), you can snag a couple of highchairs at the bar. The food is really, really good - I ordered the seafood ceviche marinated in 'suco de manga' and it was one of the best ceviches I have had in São Paulo along with a side of their potato fries with rosemary dipped in mayo. The food is served in disposable paper containers which make it easy to take and go also (if needed) but I really recommend sitting there. Prices (17/11) - The fish of the day ceviche costs R$ 17 and seafood ceviche costs R$ 20 - both have 4 marinade options. Comedoria Gonzales is very well locate behind Metro Brig. Faria Lima and one of those places where one visit isn't going to be enough. I have to return and try out more of their options.
