República del Pisco - Miraflores — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

I went to dine with my family for lunch. We got the table fairly quick. We got seated but we did not get the menus and had to ask a lady who was just serving the table next to us. The lady gave us the menus and came back bringing “canchita”. My kids immediately ate the “canchita” as they usually would do at other restaurants. Then they started complaining that it was spicy and their mouths were burning. The lady who was serving didn’t feel any compassion, as she didn’t see my kids really struggling. I asked her to bring me water or “chicha morada”. She told me “ chicha was not sold” , I just didn’t understand why she would not react and get water for my kids. I had an angry face. I just wanted to run to get the water. I got out as she left, and approached her telling her that I would say it straight to her how I was feeling, I told her that she didn’t bring me the water immediately as anyone would expect !! Seeing kids struggling !! She responds telling me she is not a waiter!!! She is just a cashier ( so why was she serving other tables and taking orders ??? Was she acting to be one ?? Then she asked a server if “chicha morada” was being sold! And he responded for sure!!!!!! I looked at her and I asked her that I wanted a waiter, she turns around and asked Edison to be our server. Not at any moment she showed empathy or said sorry !!! I explained my new waiter about what happened. He apologized !!!! For her!!! He tried his best to serve us and brought the drinks immediately. The food “Mondonguito” was just ok. “Pollo a la parrilla “ ok, “Alpaca mini burgers” delicious and Pachamanca rolls were also nice. After my bad experience I would not recommend this place unless they train their servers and wanna-be servers ( cashiers) to be empathetic and serve the customers, especially kids!! Train their staff to INFORM their customers about their “spicy canchita “ not only kid but other people cannot handle spicy stuff !!! At the end as we were leaving the waiters and real servers thanked us and said goodbyes but GENESIS, as expected only a look and she should not belong to...

Ç I recently had the pleasure of visiting Republica Del Pisco in Lima, and it was an absolute delight. We initially went to experience their renowned pisco cocktails, as we had heard they served the best in town, and let me tell you, we were not disappointed. The pisco cocktails at Republica Del Pisco were simply superb. The skilled mixologists crafted each drink with precision and expertise, resulting in flavors that were balanced and utterly delicious. From the classic Pisco Sour to innovative twists on traditional recipes, every sip was a celebration of Peru's beloved spirit. However, our experience at Republica Del Pisco went beyond the cocktails. We decided to try a few appetizer items and were pleasantly surprised by their quality.

Nice place with an unexpected large dining area! From the entrance it looks like a 20 to 30-person restaurant when it is actually a 80+ with a podium for a small band and 2 bars. We came for lunch and the place offer a different meal of the day. Unfortunately we came late and it was all gone. The menu offers several options and we picked 2 appetizers to share. The causa was with poor quality mayonnaise (certainly coming from a pot... not homemade) which is a pity when there is great effort put on the plating. The main dishes were OK. The only salad in the menu is well prepared and come in a nice portion. The risotto is clearly not home prepared. The rice was over-cooked and the risotto heavily salty, a classical example and pre-cooked food served in some restaurants with too many different meals on the menu. The offer 2 dishes were good enough. The service sounded a bit lost in space to be honest. We got the order placed and the another waiter came to confirm which salad and risotto we wanted when there is only one of each on the menu. We also had to ask 3 times to get the drinks (water... ).

To sum up, not a bad place to eat but there are definitely much better restaurants around. We have not tried at night time but something tells me they are doing much better as a bar than as...
