• My husband and I had the best time! Everything we ordered was incredible! We had the octopus as an appetizer and it was cooked perfectly, which isn’t always easy to achieve. We tried different cocktails and they were all excellent but my favorite was the Skinny B. Our waitress, Destiny, never let us go thirsty. She constantly attended to our table to ensure we had everything we needed. For dinner, we ordered the omakase platter since it was Friday and we couldn’t have meat for lent and we were very impressed. After we ate, we wanted alittle something more to have with our cocktails. So we ordered the papa la huacaina which Destiny, explained that it isn’t traditional but rather it’s served as a chip and dip. We didn’t really know what to expect but OMG it was incredible!! That’s a must order! Delicious! I couldn’t get enough of it! Most of all, we loved the music. This place is such an awesome vibe. I highly recommend this spot for dinner or just cocktails. We will be back!

• Immaculate. The first word that comes to mind: an ambiance like no other in the Flatiron design of bars and unique oases within the city of dreams. There is something about the soothing bass of the lounge genre echoing through the stereo.. moving one’s soul, the exceptionally talented and genuinely kind bartenders and staff, associated with their lovely peer Mission Ceviche, that entices the customer to stay longer than anticipated. An elegant design, wonderful vibe, a lovely time.. yet, certainly it flies in this mystical, magical, beautiful sanctuary of cocktail bars—setting the tone for New York, and what New Yorkers yearn for amidst the hustle and bustle of life in the Big Apple. Thank you for being such a welcoming establishment, with expectations surely exceeded. Cheers!

• Mission Ceviche absolutely exceeded every expectation. The Acevichado was an explosion of flavors — truly unforgettable and one of the best dishes I’ve had in a long time. The Lomo Saltado was insane: high-quality steak, an incredibly flavorful sauce, and perfectly cooked rice that brought everything together beautifully. Pro tip: ask for the house green sauce — it takes the entire experience to another level. And a very special thank you to Kimberly, our server, who made the night unforgettable. Her energy, kindness, and amazing attitude turned my birthday into the sweetest night ever. She made us feel so welcomed and taken care of from beginning to end. Truly exceptional service. I can’t wait to come back!

• One the chicest bar and restaurants around Union Square. Upstairs vibe is bright and airy perfect for group dinners and date nights. The bar is sleek and sexy and the food? The food is fantastic from rolls to ceviche to other Peruvian delights they do not miss. The best part is traveling downstairs is the real vibe. From bright and airy to red, disco and sexy. Shout out to David and Emma who showed us the downstairs area it’s so perfect! The vibe equates to old New York party scene. The revival is coming back and Mission has got the right substance. Also big shout out Nick who make the best coconut margarita for me (not on the menu) but made it happen! What an amazing night thank you guys!

The dj on set was also such a vibe she played all the tunes @dj.fiorella I was able to snag her Instagram down for future bookings with her, she is perfect for any events needed I loved the music she set for the aura, she had me dancing at my seat while I eat! 10/10 highly recommend guys !! Especially for a date night, birthday, girls night any occasion needed

• Tried this spot on a Friday night and absolutely loved it and will definitely be back. The food was amazing, ceviche was 10/10 and there are so different variations to choose from, also highly recommend trying one of their pisco drinks. The staff was another highlight, Destiny was super attentive and checked in throughout our visit and answered any questions we had and provided recommendations that were super helpful, the rest of the staff were great as well and friendly. Will definitely be back and try out a Saturday night when they have a dj/live music

• Absolutely loved my experience. I’m not a very seafood loving person but I even went for the ceviche and omg it was amazing. So glad I tried it. All the food was amazing. The drinks were great. But to top it all off our hostess was LITERALLY the best. Alessia explained all the items, made the best recommendations after asking what we like, and was a total vibe. She came over to check on us but wasn’t one of those overbearing types. I’d come back just cause of her lol. But forreal the food is amazing!!

• We had a waitress Jasmine. She was incredible. She was knowledgeable about the menu, she knew the drinks, she was aware of my friend’s birthday and got that taken care of as a surprise with a cake and candle. She was amazing and made our experience effortlessly enjoyable. The atmosphere was elegant and tasteful. The food was curated for the season. If you’re into ceviche and Peruvian cuisine, this is the place to be.
