" The Cuchillo experience is truly remarkable. The decor is inviting, reflecting a modern take on Latin culture. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite—each dish was packed with flavor! The brussel sprout frita and the pork belly were particular standouts. Though our server was friendly and knowledgeable, I felt a bit rushed toward the end of our meal due to the busy atmosphere. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for its unique dishes and welcoming vibe. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cuchillo has become one of my go-to spots in Vancouver. The unique blend of flavors in their dishes makes it stand out from typical Mexican or Peruvian restaurants. I tried the pork belly, which was mouthwatering, and the margaritas were refreshing. My only complaint is the wait time for our food was slightly longer than I expected, but the delicious meals and engaging staff made up for it. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for something different! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cuchillo encompasses everything I love about dining out; vibrant atmosphere, flavor-packed food, and attentive service. I felt very welcomed throughout my visit. The tacos were sensational, and I particularly recommend the ceviche if you get a chance. While the few hiccups in service might dissuade some, I found it charming and reflective of the restaurant's popularity. A must-try if you enjoy unique, creative dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cuchillo has made a name for itself with inventive plates and outstanding service. I visited hoping for authentic flavors and while the tastes were unique and enjoyable, they weren't quite what I expected from a Peruvian restaurant. Regardless, everyone in our group enjoyed their meals, especially the lamb tacos, which were tender and full of flavor. The lovely ambiance makes it a hit for social gatherings. Would return, though I may have lower expectations for authenticity. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cuchillo is a beautiful establishment with a warm ambiance that feels like you’re part of something special. The food was unique and flavorful. I especially appreciate their effort to incorporate authentic elements into a modern presentation. I had a lovely experience, though some dishes could be a bit richer in flavor. Regardless, I left full and happy; I look forward to enjoying more menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" A fantastic dining experience awaits you at Cuchillo! I celebrated my birthday there, and everything was stellar. From the cocktails to the dish recommendations from the staff, it was truly a feast! I particularly loved their seasonal specials—the flavors were vibrant and felt fresh. The only drawback was a more extended wait at peak hours, but I'm more than willing to overlook that when the food is as good as it is. Highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family for dinner at Cuchillo, and we had a great time! The staff were accommodating, especially with dietary modifications for my mother's gluten-free needs. The food was delicious, though more on a creative spectrum rather than authentic Peruvian. The drinks were a highlight too—they were refreshing! Overall, a lovely dining experience that I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)
