What a treat it is to be at a restaurant that really cares about the food, and shoots for greatness in every course!...They reached it in half of the dishes we ordered — particularly outstanding was the shrimp gordita and the corn esquitas. The other dishes were good but not amazing or outstanding. The red wine, called Forza, from Mexico, was delicious, as good as most Chilean or California reds. $120 for two and worth it. We’d return.

I had heard about Pehua and decided to take myself on a date there for my birthday. I don 't...love dining at better restaurants on my own (because without a companion, i can try fewer dishes), but the way the menu is designed at Pehua, I was able to experience a variety of beautiful dishes without filling myself to exploding, nor breaking the bank. What helped were the delicious house made breads one with cacao and one a pan de pulque that were brought to start along with a salsa, and the palate cleanser that I was brought between dishes. The chef elevates those flavors of the street and fondas, with a great sensitivity toward the regional herbs and ingredients. I heartily recommend Pehua to those who want to try unusual flavors. There is a 10 or 11 course tasting menu that is excellent value as well.
