    Food was extra yummy. Super fresh. The Renzo con Micha blew our tastebuds away. A spicy yet balanced Ceviche. Nigiri de Camarón was really good too, and Paseo por la Amazona. Cocktail: Espíritu Libre 💯. And the matcha tart is a staple at Sur, once you try it you will know why. Service was great; we sat at the terrace which was really nice, much less noice.

    We were a big group of 11 celebrating my niece’s BDay! Server Sebastian was very caring and patient with our big group. For most of our group was their 1st experience in Sur are were unfamiliar with the menu. Sebastian was very helpful and thorough explaining the options, that was very important to us because of significant allergies within our group. Food arrived and everyone was happy and amaze at the presentation, flavors and creativity. Let’s not forget the amazing crafted cocktails prepared by the barmen Edwin & Richard. Sur barra nikkei Highly recommended! 🤗

    A fusion of Japanese and Peruvian seemed surprising, but we're always game for a new experience. The waitress explained everything and gave great guidance on selections. Everything came with an appealing artistic presentation. The standout was the Tiradito Caliente with squid and scallops. The combination of flavors and textures was a fabulous. We also tried several cocktails. The Espíritu Libre was refreshing without being too sweet. I would definitely return.

    AMAZING- highly recommend. Went here last night for our first dinner in PR. My husband and I shared 4 appetizers and one main following the chefs recommended courses and basically just got what they told us to eat. Similar to omasake. Ricardo was amazing, the food was amazing. We’ll probably go back before we leave. PS. I’m gluten free and there were plenty of options.

    We dined at SUR Barra Nikkei while on vacation in San Juan. The experience far exceeded our expectations. The food was interesting, creative and delicious. The menu is unique and highlights Peruvian Cuisine with a Japanese twist. The paseo por La Amazona and the Lomo Saltado are must tries. The cocktails were also interesting and tasted great. The server was knowledgeable, friendly and took the time to explain the art and influence behind each dish as they were served. Overall it was an excellent experience and this is a can’t miss dining spot if you come to San Juan.

    Outstanding! What a delightful evening! We ordered cocktails, and then left the ordering up to our knowledge guy behind the bar, Richard. He led us on a delicious culinary journey from beginning to end. Sweet potato threads topped with cilantro rice and spicy tuna got us off to a great start. An interesting cold mushroom dish, followed by ceviche with corn two ways with sweet potato, then quinoa crusted mahi mahi. Not to be outdone was the dessert! A matcha tart served with black and white sesame ice creams paired with a Japanese matcha IPA. Great combination of sweet and salty. A great foodie destination!

    If you do not make a reservation here soon you are doing yourself a disservice. The food and service were outstanding. The cocktail program is killer and I wish this was my local. So glad we decided to try all new places this trip-they did not disappoint. Refreshing Pisco Sours to start followed by an assortment of raw fish dishes curated to perfection. Flavors were amazing with each dish and we were sorry when we finished each course. So nice to enjoy multiple dishes without being stuffed and the matcha pie for dessert was bomb! Custom bourbon cocktail to digest ended this meal on a perfect note. Go now-u won’t be sorry!
