Choosing Don Ceviche means opting for a truly authentic and flavorful culinary experience. Our commitment to quality and tradition is what makes us a standout choice in a city overflowing with dining options. The star of our menu, the ceviche, is known for its incredible "leche de tigre"—a bold and complex sauce that perfectly balances acidity, spice, and heat. This is the kind of authentic touch that sets our food apart and makes it truly memorable. A customer review highlights how the "impeccably bold trifecta of acidity, spices, and heat" in our leche de tigre makes you pause and reassess your life choices, a testament to its powerful flavor. Beyond the ceviche, our other dishes are equally celebrated. Our Lomo Saltado is praised for being a filling and flavorful dish with tender steak cuts. The Peruvian rotisserie chicken is another fan favorite, known for its crispy skin and soft, juicy meat, which is perfect on its own or complemented by our famous Peruvian green sauce.
In addition to the exceptional food, Don Ceviche offers great value and convenience. The prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size you receive. This makes us a go-to for a satisfying meal that won't strain your wallet.

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Don Ceviche at Essex Market: A Love Letter with Conditions (Corn Redemption + Tiger’s Roar Edition)Waltzed into Don Ceviche expecting seafood enlightenment. Left with a ceviche that’s still in therapy. Ordered the mixed ceviche with a side hustle of fried calamari and a purple corn juice that looked like it could headline a goth kombucha rave.First sip of the juice, majestic. Hibiscus vibes with a confidence that says “I meditate, but I also party.”The ceviche? Mixed, both emotionally and literally. Came with two types of corn: the white kind was good, clean, bright, behaving itself. Then its hardened cousin showed up, dried? Roasted? Just hard and chalky enough to make me check if I still had dental coverage. A real distraction from an otherwise solid dish.What truly held the plate together was the leche de tigre. An impeccably bold trifecta of acidity, spices and heat—sharp enough to wake your palate, complex enough to make you pause mid-bite and reassess your life choices. It’s the kind of zing that doesn’t shout, it smolders.The calamari? Like a rom-com supporting character, doesn’t demand attention but ends up stealing the show. Crispy, tender, and suspiciously perfect.The service? So forgettable I briefly wondered if the register was run by AI. (No offense, I’d never ghost you like that.)Seating is upstairs.Would I return? Yes. I’m emotionally invested and curious, hoping that next time, the ceviche shows up with less corn, more seafood and the same thrilling tiger’s milk energy.
July 18 · maciek macakDecent quick service food. Everything is a tad saltier than I’d prefer but the lomo saltado is a filling dish with flavorful steak cuts. Rotisserie chicken has a crispy skin and soft meat which also works well.
March 08 · Rovik RobertThis is the second time we visited Don Cebiche, to get a second chance to the lomo saltado, the meet was overcooked, the rice sticky. The arroz chaufa taste more near to a chaufa de mariscos.We liked the cebiche, we can recommend it. And the green spicy salsa the best.
August 11 · ZizyTried the lomo salteado which was 80% rice 20% steak. The flavor was pretty good except for the fries that were soggy.
July 30 · Melanie BermudezGreat experience! We were walking around lower Manhattan on a Sunday and decided to walk 18 min extra to this restaurant. The area is not the best but I stil decided to give it a shot. The waiter was super nice and attentive . Is very small place , very clean and great atmosphere.. but the food is something else!! Best Lomo Saltado I’ve ever tried, at least in USA .. as a Peruvian native, I have to congratulate the chef and owner.. it brought me back memories from childhood, the taste, home made from scratch flavors, delicious! Thanks! 🙏🏻
