Justin K Great service. Atmosphere is lively. It was completely packed by the time we left at 8pm. Reservation is recommended. Even the bar seats were filled - so it may be hard for a walk-in. The portion size was in the smaller end. We ordered about 2 appetizers, 2 smaller, 2 veggies and 2 platters. The whole chicken did the job of filling us up - could have had more spices. It was a little bland. However, the other smaller dishes were great.

Steve Reed Have been meaning to try the Workshop Kitchen for some time now and finally did brunch there on Sunday. The atmosphere and ambiance is wonderful. I can only imagine how nice it must be to eat here in cooler months and sit outside but the inside was very cool. The service was great and very friendly although a little slow. I think they were a little short staffed so totally understandable. The food was incredible. We shared a bunch of small plates and then shared some entrees. The brunch cocktail selection was amazing too. Overall very impressed with the experience and will happily come back and try dinner next.

Libbie Lots of restaurants fall off after their first few years. Not LV Mar. Their cocktails are exceptional. Their food is elevated and delicious but still approachable. Their staff could not be more kind and consistent. And their prices are appropriate if not a little low given how excellent their menu is. We have been going here for ten years and we have never had an “off” night. My only wish is that they’d dim the lights a bit more and make it more romantic for a date night, but hey, it hasn’t stopped us from coming back again and again!

Matt Kobulnick Highly highly highly recommend the tasting menu. It’s a type of cuisine you don’t often get a chance to try. You might as well get to experience the full range of it. And man did it deliver. Absolutely loved it and will be back

Chris Seibel I dont know where to start. The place was packed and didnt have any room and they made a spot for me. The service was amazing. Everybody was friendly even the other customers around me, would recommend this place to everyone. The spanish octopus was phenomenal. Brussels sprouts were perfect and the tomatoes took me home. Thank you so much for the experience and the food.

Sammi We made a reservation for a weeknight dinner at Pucquio to celebrate a family birthday, and it was really special. We prefer outdoor seating, so it was nice to have the option, especially accommodating our senior dog. The service was exceptional – Kevin was our server, and we got to meet the owner as well. Kevin was really memorable, going above and beyond us to make us feel welcome and tended to. We started with the cebiche and chicharron, and for mains, we split the lomo saltado, aji de gallina, and adobo de chancho. Everything was super flavorful! My favorites were the cebiche – super bright flavors – and aji de gallina – I could eat that every day. For dessert, we tried their fried dough, which was a bit sour for our taste but super interesting. The menu is pricey, so we would come for special occasions, but we would be so thrilled to enjoy their stellar food and service again.
