Costa Verde Restaurant — Restaurant in Norcross

Came here for dinner date as the reviews were good. Either people have low expectations or they just don't know what great Peruvian food should be. We ordered food with only Spanish speaking waitress. My date got their food right away, but my order was never placed to the kitchen. I noticed people came in after us got their food so I asked if my food is coming. She went back to place the order. The seafood soup order was extremely salty. I left the restaurant with a bit of headache too. That usually happens if there is preservatives like MSG in the food. Another waitress didn't even bother to help us when we waved her down. She was busy cleaning the other half of the restaurant floor while patron of people were eating on the opposite side of the restaurant. Needless to say the experience did not meet the expectation of...

food was good just be careful when you pay in cash make sure to count your change. they tend to keep part of it. we had a a family lunch of 3 people each family. paid 2 tickets separately one with credit card one cash. not only do they add the tip automatically to each check but the waitress tried to keep $10 from my change. my check was for $73.86 paid $100 and got my change without the receipt. my husband counted the change and realized it's $10 short. we didn't say anything to tje waitress about it being short. but I did ask her for my receipt. at that point she grabs the change she brought us and was. like oh it's short $10.....we're like really!.... so she knew what's up. just be careful make sure you count your change...

Best ceviche I’ve ever had! I won’t say that to my Peruvian father in law although his is almost identical. This is the real deal if you prefer Peruvian ceviche over Mexican ceviche, like me. I also prefer a fish-only ceviche, so that’s what I ordered. Absolutely amazing! The lomo was… “good relative to the convenience of my commute.” Pro tip- it helps to have basic Spanish in your repertoire at this eatery but you can probably get by without it. I work down the street and live nearby, it’s a sin I hadn’t been here sooner. Will be back ASAP. Probably going to be a regular lunch AND dinner spot.
