Peko Peko, a Japanese establishment in Guadalajara, offers a cozy and hipster ambiance with a vibrant vibe. The interior design is adequate, and the prices are average-high, but the flavor is worth it. The place is usually crowded, and there might be a waiting list, but the wait is worth it. They have outdoor seating available.
Their ramen is their signature dish, and the Tantanmen is recommended for those who love spicy food. Other non-spicy options are also available, including vegan ramen, which is one of the best options in town. The steamed buns stuffed with curry or pork are also a must-try, and the kimchi is absolutely delicious.
They offer Japanese sodas such as Lychee and Green Cantaloupe, different types of sake, and cocktails. The non-filtered sake is worth trying. They also serve Oolong tea, which is said to be super healthy.
The service is good, and the staff is knowledgeable about the menu. However, it can be slow at times, and there might be a delay in bringing the check.
Overall, Peko Peko is a fine dining spot for those who crave authentic Japanese cuisine in Guadalajara. It's not completely authentic, but the improvisation involved makes it impressive. The ramen is delicious, and the portions are huge. Don't forget to try the chilli-oil sauce to take the ramen flavor to another level.
The food is delicious and the service very attentive and friendly. My only issue, besides the state of the place—which could improve a lot—is the ramen portion; It really is a lot of food and I feel that it would be good to reduce the portion size a little, and with it the prices. Very good experience. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: MX$200–300 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Tonkotsu Ramen, Pan Al Vapor Relleno de Cerdo

When you visit peko peko only consider two things, if you go on the weekend you will have to wait approximately an hour to enter and to be assigned a table. In turn, the place does not have parking, so prepare your mobile park app because you will have to park your car on the street. Other than that the food is delicious, the place very clean and the staff very friendly. My daughters loved the bread with meat, the ramen, but much more the dessert Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: MX$300–400 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Cheesecake Japones Riquisimo
