Die besten peruanische Restaurants in Gilroy

The variety of food is incredible. The ceviche and Lomo Saltado were both exceptional, earning them a perfect score of 10/10. The only downside was the long wait for our drinks. Despite this minor inconvenience, we highly recommend this restaurant.

Suspiro at Santana Row leans Spanish-Peruvian with a heavy seafood and grilled-meat focus, so I went in expecting the vegetarian side to be an afterthought. It wasn't. The kitchen actually puts care into the meat-free plates, and that made the meal. 🌱 The standout was the noodle paella, their Fideuá done vegetarian. Short toasted noodles instead of rice, properly crisp at the edges, with mushrooms, broccolini, snow peas and carrots holding their own. The aioli tied it together. It's an easy dish to phone in and they didn't. The rest of the vegetarian food was solid across the board, nothing felt like a token substitution. Drinks were fine, not the reason to come back, but they did the job alongside the food. 🍸 Then the chocolate hazlenut closed it out and stole the show. Dense chocolate and hazelnut with a clean almond-flour base, rich without tipping into heavy. If you go for one thing, go for that. 🍫 A genuinely good vegetarian-friendly stop in a place I assumed wouldn't bother.

We had a very enjoyable experience at Pico Bar. At in the dining room (vs the bar area), which was quieter. Hope to return and try some additional dishes.
