Chicama in Kensington and Chelsea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Such a great place! Food quality was 10/10! Aubergine recommended and of-course the fish. All super tasty and unique flavours.

good and service was excellent will go again

My first visit to Chicama will certainly not be my last. The ambiance was amazing, the service and team were fantastic and the food first class. If you haven’t been you HAVE to go.

This is a 5/5 for me and my friend. Be aware that you will spend around 80-90 each if you get starters. We experienced great and highly qualified service in a warm atmosphere. For us this is a restaurant that as great interior but also exceptionally good food. Only point that I could criticize is that some starters came very quickly. But afterwards the pace was excellent. Would recommend for a date night or special night out :)

Have always loved Pachamama restaurants in Marylebone and Shoreditch and wanted to try the sister fish restaurant. We weren’t disappointed, but we weren’t super impressed either. We had a vegan Pisco Sour which was great as well as Oysters with mango mignonette were exquisite. 👌👌They were the highlight of our dinner. The service and food were pretty good, however the ambiance wasn’t there as well as smelly toilet and a bit rundown exterior too.

Wonderful food, atmosphere, and staff. Our second visit - we had the tasting menu which delicious. Our favourites were the peppers, the aubergine dish, the tuna, and the cheesecake. Ryan the waiter was really friendly and attentive - thank you!

The best food I have ever eaten , seriously ! We did the tasting menu and it was phenomenal, servers, knowledge and on point . It was noisy , louder music and difficult for me to hear, but I would eat there every day if I could ! Do not miss

Beautifully coal cooked sea bass with a hint of saffron was fish of the day, and probably the best I have tried. Fast service and attentive friendly staff made for over all brilliant experience, especially considering that I only went in for a quick afternoon coffee to start with. Loved the Japanese tea/coffee cups too.

What a wonderful experience of fresh seafood that was simply delicious! I've eaten a lot of cheesecakes in my lifetime, but the burnt cheesecake that is served here was simply sensational and by far the best I've ever had. We were served by Tatiana who was simply incredible. She was a wonderful server and extremely attentive. Our tasting menu and seafood platter hit the spot and couldn't fault any of the experience.

We had a fantastic lunch at Chicama, the food was excellent and the sommelier gave an incredible wine recommendation that paired perfectly with all that we ate - will be back soon!

Beautiful, tasteful, hearty cuisine. more special dishes with great taste. Nice interior and nice terrace. Smooth and friendly service: one of the better places we visited in London.

Average food and slow service charged at Michelin star price. 5 calamari rings with some yellow mayo @£14 - tomato tartare with maybe 50gr of otoro sashimi @ £25 ( taste of fish only) and 4 tentacles of Octopus that suppose to be Galician style, but taste like octopus in tomato pure @£44. Expensive wine that not even match the food. For someone that comes from the industry and knows margin you guys are ripping ppl off. I don't mine to spend money on food and drinks at all but spent £100 x head for 4 dishes and 3 gls of wine i would expect more of the wow effect bit instead I had more of the WOW that’s a rip off. Not worth the hipe.

Amazing latin food: padron peppers, grilled fish and Spanish cheesecake have been the highlights, but this is a very rare case where I can genuinely vouch for every dish! Added to this, there's great service in a wonderful atmosphere. Made for a perfect dinner destination.

Wow! Dined in the PDR for a friend’s birthday and what an experience it was! A few of us opted for the tasting menu as we couldn’t decide on just one thing - highly recommend, all of the dishes were great and we all left satisfied. Highly recommended.

Pretty poor experience. Eating on the terrace with extremely slow service. Half an hour to be offered a drink, 1 hour 15 mins for first food to arrive. One item completely missed even though we asked the waiter three times. I won't be returning

A neighborhood gem (that may be worth traveling for).

Lunch with very little time. Would love to comeback here again and eat properly. The couple of things we had were excellent. On our to do list next time for sure. Maybe a bit pricier than usual, but the quality absolutely warrants the price level.

I got sick the next day probably because of the oysters. Besides, the ceviche (picture) is really small for £17 and not great. Nice service and terrasse, but for £75 each that we paid in total, we could expect MUCH more.

Great place, had the tasting menu and was not disappointed, food was excellent, service so friendly, great ambience, would highly recommend.

Went here for dinner over the weekend and it was outstanding, one of the rare 9+/10s on my London restaurants list. Had the tasting menu with a few starters on the side - highlights were the sesame prawn toast, spicy ceviche, crispy aubergine, tapioca marshmallow, and burnt cheesecake - so basically, everything. Would highly recommend, portion sizes are generous too.

One of my favourite sports in London. Just had the updated menu and every dish is top notch, especially the most incredible ice cream I’ve ever had 👏

Incredible food, ambience and service. Really interesting and delicious interpretations of classic seafood dishes and fresh and exciting new recipes that I was pleasantly surprised to try. I will be back for more!

Delicious food and lovely staff!

Absolutely the best grilled fish I’ve ever had in London! Sublime meal, perfect service and just overall 10/10 experience. Can’t wait to go back. The basque cheesecake is to die for - the perfect spot for any occasion.

Always such an amazing atmosphere, and the food is next level!

The food is so delicious!! Amazing service too. Will definitely be going back!

Delicious food and fabulous vibe. Everything is delicious but the taramasalata is a MUST xx

Every dish was delicious and good value considering the quality and London prices

Excellent quality and fresh seafood. Flavours must be experienced.

Honestly the best restaurant in Chelsea - best food, best staff and the new menu is insane :)

First time eating here and loved the atmosphere and the service was great. Our server was really knowledgeable about all the food and drinks. Food came quickly and the marshmallow and prawn toast were sensational. Not tried anything like them anywhere.

Guys, this place is epic! Definitely a gem in Chelsea, had a perfect dating experience in this place: food is fantastic, nice and friendly service, cozy and warm atmosphere. My personal favourites are: Cezar 33 (you may ask a waitress why it is called 33, there is a story behind it), aubergine and shrimp toast!

Food, service and atmosphere was all great will be back

Our fave spot! We love the catch of the day, mango sauce and the black rice. The coco-martini is also divine!

Delicious and original dishes. Great sauces and unexpected results (try prawn toast). Nice selection of cocktails What I don’t like about the place is every time we are being seated at the door, while restaurant is quite empty.

Had a fantastic birthday meal here where we had the fish tasting menu. Two of our party had allergies which they dealt with really easily. ( Gluten and truffle allergies). Each course was perfectly pitched, delicious and proportioned as there are around 10 dishes that you try. Standout for me was the prawn toast, cerviche and burnt cheesecake but tbh all dishes were really great. Banging pisco sour cocktail as well. Highly recommend

Great Vibe and ambience. Good and service is fantastic! The new menu is to die for. The sesame prawn toast and the seafood platter along with Bluefin Tuna Crudo were simply fantastic! Will definitely go again. Also, the whole fish and the black rice is a must try!

Amazing seafood, nice atmosphere, cozy space!

My top pick in Chelsea. Cozy atmosphere, excellent food, top cocktails. I also like the wine selection, especially red one.

I loved Chicama so much! My friend and my mom all had the tasting menu for roughly 60 quid each and our minds were blown. The flavours are unique, bursting at every bite, and it is just enough food! our favourite part was the giant fish they gave us at the end. The tapioca bites were also good and the aubergine was cooked and flavoured to perfection. I loved it here and can't wait to go back!

This spot can be a casual and dressy place. Great Vibe and service. Most importantly the menu is outstanding. This is my 5th time here and each time they have introduced new dishes, and it has always gotten better. The Sesame Prawn crackers from the new menu is delicious and so is the Bluefin Tuna Crudo. Overall, the seafood quality is next level. The whole fish and black rice is my all-time favorite. Will go again.

Just so delicious. Some of the nicest food I’ve ever eaten. No long waits for service, nor for the food itself. Really cosy restaurant with an open kitchen. Would come back in a heartbeat and eat it all again. It’s difficult to pick highlights from the dishes because they were all so good, but the black rice, octopus, and popped corn monkfish cheek deserve a special mention.

Delicious food! We’re going back.

Amazing experience at Chicama!! atmosphere was just perfect and the service was brilliant - Jamshed couldn’t be more friendly and attentive whilst giving us some great food and drink recommendations. Food was delicious and portion sizes were just right, highlight for me was the Seafood platter where the whole service felt unique. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Loved it. Fantastic vegetarian taster menu. Great wine

Was my favourite place., sadly last time I discovered they changed seafood platter Disappointed

I took a friend out for her birthday and I have to thank the gentleman with tattoos who was very kind to both of us. He brought her a birthday dessert with a candle. It made her feel very special. Thank you sir. The food is very nice and I would recommend a visit on a special occasion. The atmosphere is also very warm. We sat by the bar and it feels even cosier than at a table.

Loved this restaurant on the lower part of Kings Road. It has a variety of seafood dishes and lovely ambiance.

Amazing food, sea food platter is beautifully cooked. Loads of fresh fish on the counter too. The star of the show for me though was the aubergine dish never tasted anything like it

Awesome restaurant with great vibe and delicious food. The service was spot on and friendly. The place is cozy with a truly comfortable feel to it. We had several dishes to share; everything was well done with excellent spices, lemon, etc. The wine selection was good as well.

Had a wonderful meal here this week. Not sure I’d call it Peruvian, but whatever pan latin inspired cuisine they were serving was delicious. Corn ribs seem so simple but bursting with flavor. Had the grilled monkfish tail from market list and paired with black rice with a hit of spice. Pisco sour was spot on. I was drooling as I watched them put together a seafood platter on my way out. Next time…

Third time at Chicama. Last visit was for our anniversary dinner. Food was delicious as always. This time we ordered the set dinner at £60/person. It was good but we ended up ordering extra as we didn’t get to eat all our favourites. Next time we’ll stick to ordering what we want rather than the tasting menu. If you love sweet things you must try the fried Aubergine with plantain miso. Delicious!!! The last 3 pictures (the seafood platter, the skate fish and corn were from the second visit).

Very good grilled seafood, even if it's too salty.

Fried Aubergine and Catch of the Day Tartare were highlights. Worth mentioning it would be rude to not get the seafood platter

We had this restaurant on our list for ages so decided to try it. The ambience is lovely& romantic but the tiled floor adversely affected the acoustics. It was busy and it was hard to hear. The waiter was attentive and quite friendly. Our Kir Royales were awful but everything else was good. The food was unusual but delicious. My lemon sole was perfect. My partner’s octopus excellent too. Wine was good as was the Peruvian white cocktail. Happy customers in the restaurant said everything about it. Not cheap but worth the experience.

Nice place, a bit squeezy, perusian food was good. I enjoyed

Loved this place , great food , reasonable size , beautiful bar and light , my idea of a perfect restaurant.

Fantastic food and atmosphere. The tasting menu was had great variety and super tasty. Will certainly be back!

Visited a while back but the food was excellent, great vegetarian options too.

Chicama is a truly comfortable and delightful place. You can enjoy excellent dishes and refined quality fish. Menu is varied and offers excellent quality share dishes. The environment and the service are exceptional.

I was in Fulham and really fancied some seafood, but didn’t want the usual kind. So decided to give Chicama a go, already knowing of their sister restaurants. Personally I am always impressed when a cuisine is taken by a restauranteur who isn’t originally from that country. Chicama hits the spot with their Peruvian flavours. Very clever combinations of a little bit of Japanese and creativity to put together some insanely tasty “tapas” style dishes. I highly recommend going for the tasting menu, even if you’re alone (you can just buy each meal separate). The staff were incredibly friendly too, told me about the story of the restaurant and were very attentive. I highly recommend this spot - although I was there for lunch I suspect the evening time is best time to guy. They have great music and suspect also good drinks to accommodate the dinner. 👌👌👌

stopped by to keep me hydrated with a pisco sour. well done.

A local gem if u like fresh fish. We enjoyed the sea bass, squid & prawn all cooked on the grill with light spices. Friendly service & goid buzz

My friend and I had a very delicious dinner here. It is a lovely little restaurant off King’s road with a fresh menu and a very romantic setting with inside and outside dining. Love!

Amazing and very different taste of food. Highly recommended.

Our second time to Chicama. We attended last night as a mini business Christmas party and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing and, even for a Tuesday, it was a great vibe! Highly recommend the Octopus and Blackened Cod. The burnt cheesecake with jam was a great finisher. Service was a little slow in places though well worth the wait. Very friendly staff and it was cool to watch the food being prepared in the open plan set up. Thanks guys!

Delicious food and staff so nice! We totally over ordered but everything was so tasty. Seafood platter was to die for (best sea bass I’ve had) and broccoli and cauliflower were best I’ve also ever had. The taram was such a big and generous portion (massive bowl) so couldn’t finish it so be warned if only one of you having it! So tasty and light so can eat a lot of it but wow Just a delightful experience from start to finish. It gets busy (and loud) later in the evening though so would recommend going earlier

Innovative and excellent food, imaginative cocktails - really memorable

Literally BANGING I can’t wait to go back. Fresh fish, great Peruvian tapas fusion. I had the taste menu, and it was proper. Good selection of cocktails and wines , great atmosphere and service!

Had an excellent experience. Service from Corina and the team was first rate. They work well together. The cocktails were superb. The menu is served as a sharing concept so you can order as you go. Food is prepared very quickly. All dishes were delicous, if we had one small criticism, it would be that the octopus and the cavolo nero were a little too salty, but that may be down to personal taste. It's great to be able to watch the chefs at work. There's a lively atmosphere in the place. We recommend highly. This was our second visit and are looking forward to our next. We are working our way through the menu LOL.

For me, I'd say the food is excellent BUT well over priced, some of the dishes it's like if you're sampling food for a lot of money, waiters recommends you to buy more than what you should, they're trying to hamble the way the waiters dresses or the decore but that did not give me that. To enjoy, you have to allow about £100pp with a standard bottle of wine. Would I visit again? Honestly Honestly I'd think about it twice, if...

Really good experience for my first visit as well as my boyfriend’s birthday!! We usually always end up over-ordering at every restaurant we visit, and don’t always get to finish everything. I found it very thoughtful for our server to tell us that we were ordering too much, so that we could adjust what we ordered. He also gave us a wine recommendation, which went well with all the dishes. Throughout the entire night, service was amazing, and we left the restaurant full and very happy. For the food, everything was so full of flavour and we truly enjoyed every bite!!!! Our favourites were definitely the Tuna Crudo, aubergine and the seafood platter. I really can’t wait to re-visit.

Really good food, service was a bit slow.

For me this place deserves a Michelin

A lovely birthday dinner celebration with my family!! We shared a few of the starters off the raw menu — do recommend the catch of the day tartare (ours was tuna (my favourite!)), the yellowtail crudo, and the salmon ceviche. And then to follow we shared the seafood platter with a side of grilled prawns (which may have been my best grilled prawns to date!). It was all delicious and the staff even brought out our pudding with a birthday card for me! A lovely location with brilliant food, that I’d recommend to anyone.

Back again - hadn’t been for a while. What a mistake. Must go more often. A fantastic atmosphere (don’t go if you want a quiet chat), very noisy, busy but excellent service nonetheless. The food was again amazing, the pisco sours zinging, Wanted everything on the menu, so went for the tasting menu again. So many spectacular flavours - the aubergine….the corn ribs….the sea-bass. My mouth is watering again! It’s also a treat to see all the chefs working away like crazy with such enthusiasm. We were the oldest people there by a country mile, but great chats with both our next door table neighbours. It’s a very friendly place. Fabulous.

The lunch tasting menu was phenomenal! Such interesting tastes, beautiful presentation and high quality ingredients. Highly recommended!

Great helpful staff and atmosphere!

We had such an amazing time in tonight. Busy atmosphere, service was just spot on, all the staff seemed so happy and the food was just incredible. Not the first time I come here and it became one my favorite restaurant in town!! I definitely recommend this place!!!

Delicious food and attentive service. The grilled prawns and black rice were a highlight along with some delicious vegetables with very tasty sauces.

Excellent, especially the Pisco sours

Absolutely delicious!! The cocktails were amazing and the bar man told us all about the origins of pisco which was super interesting. The food was 10/10 as was the service - will definitely be booking again!

the place was insane, the food was top and also the service was brilliant.

Excellent food and great atmosphere. The grilled octopus and miso aubergine were just perfect. Service was very helpful and friendly.

Fresh Fresh Fresh. Exactly what is needed. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Loved the aubergine, black rice and seafood platter. Staff were very friendly too.

A second visit, surely not the last. If your a seafood fan then please do not hesitate. Absolute delight with lovely service.

Tasting menu was a phenomenal experience! Excellent amount of food for the price point. Staff seemed passionate and were incredibly helpful. Non-traditional and exciting flavours. Best aubergine I have ever tasted.

Went to Chicama for a lunch on a Thursday afternoon. Fish: fresh &delicious Starters: ordered them all. But tapioca marshmallows made my taste buds exploded. Catch of the day: smoothest tuna tartare, worth trying. Hospitality: high quality management. Lunch: successful Comfort food, didn’t feel like a basic place. The restaurant has a cozy terrace, so you can enjoy both: food +weather Highly Reccomended

Favourite restaurant, great ambience and good service

Apart from their dessert, I totally fell in love with its tasting Menu. Highly recommend!!!! If you are to sit outside, please make sure to clean the cutlery and plate as they could be dusted while the table waiting to find diners.

Besser geht es kaum noch. Hervorragender Service, super Fischauswahl.

The other evening, we visited this restaurant as my partner had made a reservation for us. We had heard about this place through a recommendation from a staff member at another restaurant within the same group. Unfortunately, the food here didn't quite meet our expectations, especially considering the prices. While I did enjoy the octopus and the ceviche, I've had better elsewhere. The service, on the other hand, was decent, although it lacked a certain liveliness. I must note that the polite gentleman with the glasses stood out and provided a pleasant experience.

I have been coming to this restaurant quite often and every visit has got better and better. Hands down best restaurant in London !! To make it extra special Dip was a fantastic host and made the experience unforgettable. People like Dip make an experience rememberable and is and asset to such a wonderful restaurant. Thank you Chicama for always exceeding expectations and thank you to Dip for taking the experience to a new level.

Not many in at the time so we got some really attentive service, great food also

I love this restaurant, the best food. Especially fish, black rise and marshmallows.

Unusual and unique seafood. A meal like I have never had before. Everything just combines and works. Very clear when we asked which items were gluten free.

Great venue with a diverse menu. I liked the music particularly. Simona was the highlight of our visit!

My boyfriend and I went here for my birthday and were incredibly impressed by everything from the food to the attentive service we received. The monkfish cheeks were to die for, as was the black rice! Will definitely be back, a huge thank you to the team!
