  • Cuisine: Cevicheria, street-food style
  • Chef / group: Chef Tomas 'Toshi' Matsufuji

Al Toke Pez is chef Tomas 'Toshi' Matsufuji's small, unpretentious ceviche bar -- high stools, a chalkboard menu, no reservations -- built around a handful of dishes done extremely well: ceviche, chicharron de pota, arroz con mariscos. It was featured on Netflix's Street Food: Latin America in 2020, which brought an international following without changing the format: still small, still cash-and-carry casual, still one of the best ceviche experiences in the city for the price.
