The restaurant is in Alameda, which is a very populous neighborhood in Cali. Despite its unassuming appearance, they have the best ceviche in town. Locals come from all over the city to have it. You can tell by the other restaurants with similar names that Pedro Jr is the original and has been a staple of Pacific food for many years. I tried the cazuela and it was very good too.
Es un excelente lugar para probar la comida del pacífico colombiano. Teníamos miedo de que el lugar solo fuera viral en redes sociales sin ser realmente bueno. No es el caso. Definitivamente, el sabor no tiene comparación, el tamaño de sus platos es generoso, auténtica comida del pacifico, la carta es muy variada y dependerá de las preferencias pero lo más recomendable sería el ceviche y las cazuelas. Si va en fin de semana, el lugar está bastante transitado, por lo que el servicio puede demorar un poco. El ambiente es cerrado, estéticamente no es el mejor de la zona pero eso pasa a segundo plano cuando disfrutas del plato.
Estos platos son una auténtica celebración de la cocina costeña y una muestra de cómo el sabor, la frescura y la sazón pueden transformar una comida en una experiencia inolvidable. Desde el primer vistazo, se nota el esmero en la presentación y en la selección de ingredientes que evocan lo mejor del mar y de la tradición caribeña colombiana. El primer plato destaca por su cremosidad y generosidad de ingredientes. La mezcla de mayonesa, cebolla morada y aguacate crea una textura suave, acompañada de notas frescas y especiadas que equilibran perfectamente el sabor del marisco, probablemente camarón o pescado. Las hierbas frescas y la cebolla aportan ese crunch y aroma particular que solo se encuentra en preparaciones artesanales. Cada bocado es una explosión de sensaciones, donde lo cremoso y lo picante conviven en armonía, sin empalagar ni saturar el paladar. El segundo plato, con su color intenso y salsa roja vibrante, es pura energía costeña. Los camarones bañados en salsa de tomate y cebolla morada, aderezados con cilantro picado, resaltan la tradición del ceviche caribeño, fresco y ligeramente picante. El toque de limón y yuca cocida, si se incluye, aporta un contraste ideal entre lo ácido y lo neutro. La frescura de los ingredientes es evidente, y el equilibrio entre acidez, dulzor y picante logra que no se pierda la identidad del camarón: carnoso, jugoso y absolutamente delicioso. La mesa completa, vista desde arriba, es una auténtica fiesta para los sentidos. Los jugos de colores y la variedad de platos demuestran que aquí cada detalle importa: desde la cortesía del restaurante hasta el acompañamiento de chips y salsa. La sopa espesa y reconfortante, junto con el arroz y ensalada fresca, complementan de forma perfecta el menú, proporcionando distintas texturas y sabores que invitan a mezclar y probar cada elemento. Todo está servido en cantidades generosas y con una presentación impecable, invitando a compartir y disfrutar junto a familiares y amigos. En resumen, esta experiencia gastronómica es una muestra contundente del cariño y cuidado que se pone en cada preparación costeña. Ingredientes frescos, recetas auténticas y un ambiente acogedor crean el escenario ideal para disfrutar del mejor sabor del Caribe colombiano. Sin duda, estos platos dejan una huella en el corazón y en el paladar, y hacen que uno quiera volver una y otra vez a probar cada especialidad que ofrece la carta.

Wow!! The food was amazing the portions are perfect for the price and the service was great. Definitely a place to go when you are in Cali.
Best Ceviche in town, food is always delicious and fresh
OMG ppl the place is cleaned, friendly staff. Off street parking, bathroom and kitchen cause I was able to see it on my way to the bathroom 🤣. cash and credit card accepted.
They have friendly staffs I mean the waitress and waiters who do their jobs with enthusiasms, clean environment and excellent dishes. To talk about the soup, one of a kind in Colombia not only Cali. Highly recommended
My wife wanted to have some ceviche and my brother in law knew this place, I have to say that I tried some and it was awesome, It was so good that we returned the next day and got some for take out. First night were attended by Sir Pedro Jr himself. When I return to Cali, I will surely return for some more Ceviche 😎👍👍👍👍
You have to try this restaurant. Amazing food and fantastic service. The owner himself came.a few times and asked if everything was fine. I wanted a fish that they didn't have by the time we arrived, since it was late. He went and got one just for me in no time. On top of that, it was the best sierra I've ever had. Dorada was also 10/10. Considerjng it was the biggest sierra I've ever had, the prices are more than reasonable. Expected to pay at least 25% more than I had to. This is my place of seafood now in Cali. Will be back many times.

Very tasty pacific coast food, very well made
Great seafood
Near the Galeria Alameda. Offering the usual seafood dishes Colombia is famous for. Seviche is prepared to order with super fresh seafood. Try the mixed ceviche to enjoy a bit of each flavor.
The food was really good although they did try to charge us way more for the market price, because we are Americans although my Colombian friend fixed it. Service was great.
Pedro Junior restaurant specialzes in seafood dishes typical of coastal Colombia. We tried a "triple", of piangua (a type of clam), shrimp in a bechamel or other sauce, and "tollo" - dried shredded shark smoked or in fish stock. This was served with Patacones (cooked plantain pounded flat), a small cabbage/carrot salad, a bowl of hot fish soup and drinks from a selection of beers and fruit juices. Try a pitcher (jarra) of lemonade if it's a hot day. An informal, open atmosphere with an army of waiters/waitresses who shuffle around taking and delivering orders ensuring quick service. Frequently very crowded, especially on weekends, food quality can vary, depending on specific dishes. Our visits were on "bad" days but you may have better results.
Is a nice place...traditional place, that's important. If you are a tourist don't drink the lemonade...is just for locals and their stronger stomachs

This restaurant is more for locals than for tourists. The portion of the food is huge. Two of us ordered two dishes and could not finish even one. Their shrimp ceviche has a ton of shrimp in it.
Food is super filling. Very good taste food. Nicely priced. The service definitely needs improvement. No smiles or warmness from the servers. But they do the job right.
