Pisco y Nazca Bethesda Opens It Doors In MoCo

BETHESDA, MD — The third location of Pisco y Nazca Ceviche Gastrobar in the DMV, and the first Maryland site of the chain, is open in the 2 Bethesda Metro Center building at 7401 Woodmont Ave. in Bethesda.

Pisco y Nazca Ceviche Gastrobar expanded its footprint in the region with the opening of the location, according to a news release from the company.

The doors opened to the first customers March 24 after with an extended happy hour.

Its modern take on traditional Peruvian cuisine features ceviches and unique cocktails set in a social dining experience with an open kitchen and a wide selection of local and international beers.

Pisco y Nazca Bethesda's hours are: Monday through Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m., Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 11 p.m., Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.

The owners said the restaurant is "perfect for casual meals, brunches, happy hours, or private events. Its atmosphere is casual, trendy, and fun with a subtle touch of sophistication."

“We’re beyond excited to bring the Pisco y Nazca experience to Bethesda and continue expanding our footprint in the DMV region,” said Rosa Reyes, Pisco y Nazca regional manager, in a news release. “This new location will allow us to share our vibrant Peruvian flavors, craft cocktails, and lively atmosphere with even more guests, while maintaining the authenticity and warmth that have made our brand so special.”

The dining experience will mirror those at the other six locations nationwide, including the Ceviche Sampler, Pisco Flight, Lomo Saltado, Sushi, Causa Crocante and more.

The Pisco y Nazca name references two key Peruvian locations: Pisco, the city famous for Pisco brandy, and Nazca, known for the ancient Nazca Lines. Together, the name evokes the idea of enjoying drinks and great company in a vibrant, lively atmosphere.
