Dinner in Lima -- Difficulty: Sunday Night

November 13, 2014 7:49 AM

My wife and I will be in Lima in a couple of weeks for just a day, and we are trying to find somewhere for dinner on a Sunday night. We're not opposed to street food and the like, but we'd like to do something more upscale if that's an option. Any suggestions?

It's been years since I've been, but you might like La Rosa Nautica. It's right off the beach and looks out to the South Pacific.

I'm in Lima right now. I had a delicious meal at Tanta, which is an upscale-ish chain. The Lomo saltado was by far the best I had during my month here. I hear both La-Mar (up-scalish) and La Lucha (sandwich shop) are excellent.

I wrote this review on tripadvisor last year. more recent reviews pan the service, but we found it to be excellent.

I went to La Rosa Nautica and ate in the bar, rather than the restaurant. Great food and drinks.

Thanks, reservations made at La Rosa Nautica! La Mar and La Lucha are both on our list as well.

I guess it's too late but Astrid y Gaston is considered one of the best in Latin America.

Astrid & Gaston is not open for dinner on Sundays. Neither is La Mar.
