Excellent Peruvian food in London, with a slight modern twist. Service is very attentive, and everything is really well made. Decided to go for a la carte instead of the tasting menu. The corquetas weren't as good as I would expect from a place like this. But everything else we ordered was great. The causa was probably my favorite, but then again it's probably one of my favorite Peruvian dishes in general. The food came at the right pace, was well seasoned, and the atmosphere was relaxed and not uptight. I also really like the decor they have there.

Really gone downhill since it lost its Michelin star. Despite their already limited menu they had missing items. A lot of their blockbuster dishes like chaufa fried rice, Cuzco one bread and warm seafood ceviche all gone. Tap water also cost £3 / person when by law it’s meant to be free. Also tried to pull a fast one and deny us the set menu price and the maitre’d was extremely condescending when we pointed it out. I used to recommend this place all the time - now I wouldn’t revisit even if they paid me to. Service was slow beyond imagination - each savory course took 30 mins to server - ridiculous considering how little patrons there were. Also as a point of hygiene - they lay the silverware out on the bare table - which the wipe off using the same table cloth for each table. You really couldn’t point any redeemable features out. Mains were also disproportionately seasoned and ceviche overly acidic compared to past 2 times. Dessert admittedly good - but honestly at the end of such a letdown of an experience- night as we’ll head to Maccas for a £ ice cream.

Unfortunately a real let down. Summary: Service: extremely confused staff, mixing up dishes and drinks and not knowing ingredients in dishes. Food: the best thing were the fried boquerones which came with the tuna ceviche. Tuna Tartare was tasteless, aubergine was undercooked and bland with miso rubbed on top (usually the miso would be on the aubergine before cooking to add some flavour, very strange and inedible), crab and sweet potato was ok but with an offensive strawberry sauce that didn’t at all compliment. Such a shame for such an overpriced restaurant, it’s hard to believe they were given a star some time ago! FAO owner: Adding some of the dishes we ordered in response: Tuna Tiradito (which came with chipirones**) Ceviche Classico Octopus and crab causa Hand dived scallop

We visited the Sunny Street restaurant for Valentines and it was amazing, wonderful menu and their drinks menu was delightful, I’m currently alcohol feee and they had a sparkling wine option for me and beautiful mocktails. The food is delicious and so beautifully presented, the service was exceptional and they had great music on. The lamb we had has been the best we’ve ever had, perfectly cooked. Thank you so much! We will be back for the a la carte menu!

Our table wasn't ready when we arrived, so they kindly gave us a couple of complimentary Pisco Sours while we waited all of five minutes. They then gave us the perfect table, as my partner and I like to sit next to each other, rather than opposite. The food was delicious - a bit milder than I was expecting, based on my time in the city of Lima. Portions were a bit smaller than expected, and bill a bit higher. But staff were attentive, and overall we were happy with what was a special night out.

Lima Fitzrovia was a wonderful experience; the staff was very attentive and friendly. The starters were quite good, and the main course was nice. The sea bass was very tasty, although it was a bit salty. We really enjoyed the desserts. Since we discovered the restaurant on Instagram, we wanted to try the chef’s lunch menu. Initially, we went to Lima Shoreditch, but unfortunately, they don’t offer this option after 3 PM and turned us away at the door. This was very disappointing and frustrating.

La comida era muy cara y de mal gusto. Teníamos un entrante compartido que consistía en un panecillo y una cucharada de algo que parecía un emoji de billar, aunque insípido. Cada uno tenía un plato principal y una copa de vino, y la cuenta era de casi £ 100. ¡Intentaron cobrarnos 6 libras por el agua del grifo! El camarero pateaba constantemente la silla de mis maridos, incluso después de que se lo dijeran! Horrible experiencia, no volveríamos.

Popped in for a relaxed dinner. Made reservation in advance. It wasn't as busy being Monday evening. The host and the server were quite hospitable. I opted to ask for their recommendation on the vegetarian options - not many and most have eggs. I was informed the menu is changing around March and they'd want me to try it then. We were the last one to leave. I'd recommend it if you eat meat. Vegetarians probably skip unless you fancy some drinks

Ceviche Clasico was one of the best i've ever tasted. Especially choclo made the difference. Equally tasty was Pisco Sour. Waguy Skirt was the least exotic dish on the five-course menu. However, I liked the portion of overcooked meat. Octopus and Crab Causa was a bit disappointing portion because the crushed potato served cold didn't even taste like a good potato. I could have lived without dessert: chocolate tart and lime ice-cream didn't go well together. Then again it was a fine evening. The service was prompt and friendly. Be prepared for London prices.

Honestly the best ceviche in London. Consistently good, unpretentious and so fresh. The Wagyu beef was cooked to perfection and I loved the quinoa risotto. The cherry on top were the pisco sours - also probably the best I've had in London.

I dined with a group of friends; we all took the set menu. The food was just so bad - the ingredients didn’t feel fresh, everything was the wrong temperature (lukewarm wagyu), and the presentation was worse than food I would prepare at home. The only decent dish was the ceviche. The staff was super inattentive, missing details like ensuring everyone had a glass for wine (then not bringing one when we requested so we went to the bar ourselves). This place has really fallen off since I first ate there in 2019.

We had dinner here last weekend. What a beautiful spot, with amazing staff! The service was outstanding, very attentive and warm. The food looked great, but the flavors didn’t blow us away. It was fine, not everything was to our taste however. The shiso leaf with tuna is amazing, the croquettas and quinoto weren’t very rememberable. Tuna with tiger milk was fine. Since the staff were so great, I really cannot give 3 stars, they made it 4 :). I think we might also be a little disappointed in the food because of the high price range, that maybe set the bar and expectations too high.

Lima nunca falla. Fuimos a almorzar y algunos probamos el NUEVO menú degustación que consta de: croquetas de pollo aji , ceviche (por supuesto) , cangrejo y pulpo causa, filete de falda wagyu de cocción lenta con una deliciosa salsa y una ensalada única , y de postre, un cuadrado de sobresaliente pastel de chocolate piura con trocitos de piña y coco asados! Pan casero y una deliciosa mantequilla mezclada con jarabe de algarrobo para empezar junto al mejor pisco sour de Londres. Han pasado más de 12 años desde que Lima abrió por primera vez en Londres, encabezando la moda gastronómica peruana. Siguen siendo fuertes; ahora tienen tres sedes en Londres (Covent Garden y la City) y nos han dicho que van a volver a ser internacionales.

I decided to only write reviews for restaurants that actually do stand out in terms of service and food, as this industry has been hit hard over the years, and Lima Fitzrovia is just one of those places. Firstly, the music was just the right level to hear people dinning on our table but not the people around. We chose from the A la Cart menu to share between us, and it was just enough. Secondly, considering they were a person down during lunch service, it was still impeccable and they were all attentive. The food was delicious, from the melt in the mouth butter and delicious Peruvian breads to the ceviche, scallops and melt in the mouth beef and lamb chops to the deserts. The ceviche had the right balance and the sauce was delicious, the corn bread reminded us of corn bread that we eat in South America. Don't forget Christmas is around the corner and if you are going to see a show or a bit of shopping then why not try here, it is near Tottenham Court Road. Thank you to the team at Lima Fitzrovia, London, you really made our Mums' birthday special.

Lima Fitzrovia left a very good impression on my friend with the quality of the food and the service. The food was high standard, the salmon we both ordered and the starters were a 10.

Mixed Experience at Lima This was our first time at Lima and our first encounter with Peruvian cuisine. Given the buzz around Peruvian food, we were eager to discover it at Lima. The restaurant itself is lovely—tastefully decorated with a nice contemporary atmosphere. It doesn’t feel like you’re in the middle of the Andes, which is actually a good thing! We opted for the six-course “Clasico” tasting menu with wine pairing. Overall, it was good but not exceptional. I felt that most of the dishes (except the ceviche) lacked “energy” and tasted somewhat bland. While plating was consistently well-done, the dishes themselves lacked punch and complexity; they didn’t leave a lasting impression. By the end of the dinner, the only one I clearly remembered was the stone bass ceviche. The others faded quickly from memory. As for the wine pairing, we really enjoyed the cocktails served with the first course and dessert—they were excellent. The wines, however, were quite average. It was also a bit disappointing to never be served directly from the bottle. Instead, glasses arrived already poured, with only approximate descriptions from the server. In conclusion, I feel that this restaurant invests more in ambiance than in the food itself. It leaves me with mixed feelings; while it wasn’t a bad evening, I still felt something was missing…

We expected more, as a Peruvian living abroad I didn't find it that amazing. The quality of the dishes is certainly good, I have no doubt about that. We had the menu, fine but not outstanding, poor in taste. The service still needs to be improved, the wine etc. for the individual courses did not arrive in time. The lighting is too dark. For tourists with moderate to good knowledge of English, the pronunciation of the service staff was simply not understandable. We consumed over 400 pounds, on top of which a special tax of 12.5% was added, which is apparently common in London. We didn't think this was supposed to replace the "voluntary" tip. With prices like these, you should leave the amount of the tip up to the guests instead of putting this directly on the bill. Well, we were there three times: the first, only and last time. It's a shame, Peruvian CUISINE is otherwise fantastic everywhere.

Reading many of the reviews we were looking very much forward to this dinner. Expectations were high but not over the top. To sum it up we were really disappointed in all ways. The Starters: Ceviche was ok but far from being something special. The Tuna tartar was literally a teaspoon of Tuna together with something crusty what we couldn't identify. The Mains: The Salmon was burnt on one side and not more than ok taste wise. The Iberico Pork, estimated around 100 gr, together with a few potatos was OK but quite tasteless. The Dessert: A tablespoon of mousse au chocolate and Dulce di Leche also quite disappointing. Although the restaurant was quite full it is not so big. So the 3 waiters could have easily done the job. It took us 20 mins to get a second glass of wine and additional 10 mins for them to clean the table after the starters. For the total of 230 gbp incl. 0,5 ltr. Wine and two bottles of water it is totally overpriced from what you get. Can't recommend this restaurant at all and we will definitely not go there again.

The one "could do better" was the asparagus salad. It was a delicious quinoa and carrot salad in a fabulous sauce, garnished with half a asparagus spear( only the stem not the head) and a little bit of spring onion the name was completely misleading, the dish delicious. Wine was good and by the glass not an unreasaonable price. Will be back!

Great food and service. The only downside was that it was rather noisy and difficult to hear each other.

Visits to Lima never disappoint. Once again the work in the kitchen was exemplary and imaginative, the service friendly and efficient. A Monday lunchtime is likely to be unusually quiet in most restaurants, so the atmosphere was subdued. Nonetheless we enjoyed an excellent meal. Good luck to all at Lima as the new Shoreditch outpost opens.

Visitamos este restaurante basado en comentarios brillantes, esperando una auténtica experiencia gastronómica peruana, pero desafortunadamente, la comida dejó mucho que desear. Pedimos dos entrantes, incluyendo un tataki de atún y un pastel de maíz, seguido de un plato principal a base de quinoa. A todos les faltaban los sabores atrevidos y frescos que esperábamos. Los platos parecían estar disfrazados de cocina de alta calidad, pero la realidad era sosa y poco inspirada. A pesar del fantástico servicio — el personal era atento e increíblemente amable — la comida en sí fue una completa decepción. Ingredientes de mala calidad y bajo sabor fueron los rasgos definitorios de la velada, haciendo difícil justificar el precio. Lamentablemente, esta no fue la vibrante experiencia peruana que esperábamos.

Food was delicious. But service was out of this world it was amazing. 10/10 I am Peruvian so I mean it. They catered to our guest allergies and everything had so much flavour.

Locale carino, raccolto con stile moderno. Sala principale e seconda sala al piano inferiore. Cordiale lo staff di sala, brillante il manager italiano. Cucina dai sapori decisi, consiglio assolutamente il Quintero del mar davvero sublime. Il conto è in linea con i costi di Londra ma almeno ne vale la pena. Con una bottiglia da 75 sterline, il conto è stato di 120 sterline a testa. Consiglio una visita.

Superb food as always - the Iberico pork is so tender - a real treat. The Andean tubers (black potatoes) are divine, and don’t forget to order some bread. Fabulous!

I chose this place for my boyfriend's post-birthday dinner due to its casual nature and great reviews. Having worked at 5 star hotels and attended several upscale dining experiences in the past, I wanted to take him to a down to earth, high-end restaurant and I can confidently say, our evening was exceptional. The food was incredible and beautifully presented, the staff is attentive and the atmosphere is exactly what we like (my boyfriend is somewhat intimidated by white tablecloth restaurants). Thank you for the wonderful time and for making us feel at ease. x

Nice people Awful food. The sausage sandwich was dry and greasy at the same time. Coffee is not good. I always want to support small businesses but there is a limit.

I was super impressed with the lemon ginger tea there. Real squeezed lemon juice, zesty ginger. Served hot to warm me up in cold weather.

Went here with my colleagues a few weeks back and the food is well tasting, although slightly pricey, and the atmosphere is very nice. However, problem for us was: one of our party members has nut allergy. As always, we made that very clear at the beginning of our visit and was assured that no dishes would contain nuts. That they are in fact completely nut-free as a restaurant. Half an hour in to our visit my friend got an allergic reaction and had to use an EpiPen and go straight to the emergency room for treatment. The staff, kept claiming that it couldn’t possibly come from the restaurant, and claimed that it might potentially be someone at another table having a snickers bar (or similar). From his long experience of this allergy, this is not how my friend has an allergic reaction. It was clearly something he had put in his mouth. We suspect that someone in the kitchen might have brought in something that contained nuts and that it had accidentally found itself into the food being served. There’s no other logical explanation. An error that, literally, could have been life threatening. Although apologetic, the staff made zero attempt to rectify the situation. We had to have our dinner abruptly interrupted by long conversations about what had happened, without anyone showing any interest to rectify the situation. We were asked to fill out a form, but since then there has been no further attempt from the restaurant to make right for this situation. I’m very disappointed by their handling. We left after our meal. They agreed to remove my friend’s meal from the final tab (no brainer). But that was all. I have waited to write this review to give the restaurant an honest chance to rectify their huge mistake. But I feel that their grace period has now ended. BE WARNED: Under no circumstances visit this place if you have any allergies. They clearly don’t take their responsibility seriously.
