About this restaurant

Gluten-free-friendly
Great for creative cocktails
Good for special occasions

"Pacha Nikkei will introduce the unique flavors, philosophy and techniques of Nikkei cuisine to Houston. In doing so, it pays tribute to a successful integration of cultures that goes back 124 years in Peru, and that has significantly contributed to the gastronomic wealth of the country. Pacha in the Quechua language of Peru means “world” and Nikkei is a Japanese word, widely used in Peru to refer to Japanese-Peruvian people. The encounter between these rich cultures has given rise to a delicious culinary expression that we would like to share with the world."

GREAT food. I was a little disappointed it took us so long to get served (they told us we had a time limit of 1 hour 30 minutes and then 15 of those minutes were spent waiting.) but really amazing food and once we were waited on, great service. Wish it was in a better location but worth the drive! Definitely will be back. Additionally, very well priced for the quality of food.

We came for lunch with our toddler and infant (risky, I know) but we had such an incredible meal. Our server was attentive and made excellent recommendations. The food came out quickly and was outstanding. The flavors and textures will have me thinking of this meal for a long time.
