I walked in and immediately fell in love. The aroma of the restaurant was divine. I sat at the bar and someone immediately helped me. I started off with a glass of Chardonnay. Then moved on to the tiradito which was thinly slices of fish in this delicious citrusy marinade. I followed with a rice dish filled with mounds of seafood. It was absolutely delicious. I've been back several times. The food and service has always been spot on.
I'm a big fan of Peruvian food and love trying out different Peruvian restaurants, and Aji Limo was a great choice. I ordered the Tallarin Saltado with seafood, and my fiancée ordered the ceviche. Both dishes were delicious and made with fresh seafood. I'm usually very careful about where I order raw fish since some places don't keep it fresh, so I was happy to see that everything here was fresh and flavorful. The service was also excellent, friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The only downsides were that parking which was a bit hard to find, they had signs pointing to parking in the back, but I couldn't find it. They also didn't have real Pisco, which was my biggest disappointment. I was surprised that a Peruvian restaurant does not offer it. Still, those were minor issues compared to the overall experience, which was very pleasant.
We ate here right when they opened and the food is still just as good. Prices have gone up quite a bit, but the food is that good. Sangria pricing is weird in that a glass is $12 and a pitcher is $40, so go for the pitcher and split it up. The chicken was fantastic- so juicy and flavorful. Lomo was also good, but the sauce was a little light this time, and the sauce is what makes the dish. Service was really good, and decor is nice. Definitely one of the better Peruvian places around.
This was the best Peruvian food I've ever tasted. The food was so tasty, the meat (both land and sea) was so succulent, the drinks were made so well, and our waitress was so nice and helpful. The ambiance is very welcoming and I can tell they really take their heritage seriously. My only suggestion is that the lomo saltado should have more meat. For a $30 entree I feel like I shouldn't run of out protein before I run out of carbs (fries and rice). Overall though, it was an amazing experience and my wife and I will definitely be coming back.
Great Peruvian restaurant. All dishes were very tasty and well presented. Service was professional and friendly. Great lunch deal at $17 for an appetizer & main dish. Also, looks like a great happy hour menu. Super clean bathroom which really speaks to the owner & their team and how well they want this restaurant to run.
Always wonderful ceviche, tostones and sangria. What a great meal with wonderful service. Love it!
We have been really looking forward to trying out this restaurant and it did not disappoint! We went in for my wife's birthday. The ambiance was great. The hostess seemed to be having a rough day or something, but our server was very friendly and kind. We started off with drinks and a mixed seafood ceviche. Drinks were very good and the ceviche was phenomenal Main courses were the Pescado Sudado (traditional homemade flavors and textures... sooo good) and the Lomo Saltado (good lord this was good! The portions of all the plates were quite surprising. You definitely get your money's worth when it comes to flavors and quantities. We were sat next to a couple with a toddler and a very small kid. Very noisy and crying. That's no fault of the staff. But the table we were sat in near the front entrance got extremely humid and a bit uncomfortable. TIP: ask to be sat away from the entrance. We'll definitely be returning! This place was delightful.
I'm really at a 3 because of the flavor/taste of the food, but the issue was not related to the food or taste....more about how they run the business...read to the end. Met up with a friend who had been before, raving about the food, I was excited to try it. We entered early one evening, it was probably 5:30 pm on a not-very-busy weekday and sat up at the bar....apparently none of the empty tables were available for us. That's fine. I enjoy the bar scene for dinner sometimes...when there's anyone there to mingle with. NO one was at the bar. But that's ok, I was with a friend and that was all the company we needed. We ordered the ceviche, the caprese and my friend had the octopus (not my thing), for the 2nd time. The ceviche was very good, I was going to order something else, but it was actually a large portion... so I literally just had that for my meal. I had high hopes and was thinking of coming back to have something else... But at the end of the meal, when we got our checks, noticed they added a charge for using a credit card - which although isn't that uncommon these days, there was no mention or shown anywhere until after the bill was presented...and then charged tax on top of that additional charge as well AND on top of all that, the tax rate was INCORRECT!!! Since the rollback at the beginning of the year...they have been charging a higher amount of tax on its customers (yet only needing to pay the correct tax amount out). None of this is acceptable. When I brought this to the server's attention, they had to have a conversation with the manager to figure out how to fix the issue. My bill was recalculated manually and was still not correct, but it was in my favor and my friend's bill was recalculated as well but not in her favor. I wasn't about to pay a credit card fee that was undisclosed. Then tax on top of that charge and the incorrect tax rate, even. The server wasn't apologetic and the manager did not come out to apologize for the error either. Maybe it wasn't an accident. We did the correct math and both opted to pay cash and the correct amount of tax. This is the 2nd place I've noticed the incorrect tax amount being charged since the beginning of this year....this is probably happening in a lot of places. I need to keep my eyes open a little more. Everyone should!
I was craving Peruvian food and was so happy to have found this spot. It was not that busy but they told us they only had spots available at the bar so I'm assuming they normally do reservations. I ordered a Pisco Sour with passion fruit and the ceviche of mixed seafood with a medium spicy level. The seafood tasted fresh and the spicy level was perfect. Can't wait to come back!
The food here was hot, fresh, and really delicious. The service could've been a bit better, but the quality of the food definitely makes it worth coming back. Looking forward to trying more dishes next time.
Great place. Came here for Sunday brunch. We didn't make a reservation. Place is pretty spacious with lots of seating. There is parking available in the front and I believe some on the back. Service was excellent and very friendly as well. We ordered seafood ceviche, salad and shrimp rice. We got so much food that we had to take it home and eat for dinner as well. Ceviche was very tasty and fresh and also very large portion. Salad was pretty tasty and fresh. Ambience is traditional I would say. They have some drink selection and some traditional drinks as well. Pretty good place. Definitely recommend.
La comida está súper rica y el servicio bueno. Que mas puedes pedir. VENGAN A PROBAR LA COMIDA
Causa Rellena - mashed potatoes with a classic ceviche-style lime seasoning. Yuca a la Huancaína - Fried yuca with a creamy yellow pepper sauce. Pulpo a la Parrilla - Grilled octopus, simple and well-executed. Arroz con Mariscos - Seafood rice, better than chaufas in my opinion. Tallarin Saltado - Our favorite

We came to try this Peruvian restaurant for my husband's birthday. Food was absolutely great!! Service was nothing special... It's a smaller restaurant so I recommend a reservation. I would have given it 4 stars but I thought the price of the app and ceviche (not pictured) was overpriced for the portion. I'm open to given it another try though someday. read more

Recently had dinner at Aji Limo Peruvian Cuisine with my husband and two kids and was so impressed with our meal! We started our meal with some delicious red sangria (WARNING: the sangria is more potent than it tastes and I should not have ordered a second glass!!!) We ordered the grilled octopus appetizer (pulpo a la parrilla) with golden potatoes and white corn and could not get enough of the amazing huacatay sauce that accompanied it. The only thing that kept this dish from being a five star dish was that one of the tentacles was a little over cooked and a little too chewy to eat. The other tentacle was super tender and delicious. For my entree I ordered the seafood Paella and my husband ordered the lomo saltado. My husband loved his steak and I loved my paella and was impressed by how much seafood was in the dish. The portion of paella was so huge that I had leftovers twice! My kids made a weak attempt to try some of the components of our meal, but opted to order the kid's chicken tenders and fries. I feel like if we made a few more visits we could convince them that they do like Peruvian food and they didn't need to order a children's meal! Will definitely be back soon! read more

I stumbled upon this place by chance--no recommendations, just searching for Peruvian food--and it truly exceeded my expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such warm and friendly service. We sat at the bar, and the bartender recommended a pisco sour that I absolutely loved. We started with an appetizer of fried yuca, which was perfectly crispy and delicious. For the main course, we ordered the parihuela and the steak chaufa rice. The flavors were perfectly balanced and absolutely exquisite. The atmosphere is very pleasant, with background music that sets the perfect tone for the space, and the service was outstanding. While the prices are on the higher side, the quality is well worth it. This is definitely a place I'll return to! read more

Without a doubt, the best Peruvian restaurant in Tampa. Very romantic atmosphere, live music and the food is excellent. We've been here numerous times, along with other Peruvian restaurants, and decided here for Valentines dinner. They had a Valentines menu, which though limited, was delicious and paired with wine. Service was top notch. Phenomenal to say the least. Highly recommend. read more

Nice dinner spot and friendly service. Would recommend ceviche and tallarín saltado as Peruvian dishes. The server recommended the sangria however we went with margaritas which were strong and pretty good. Is on the pricier side and would have liked more of a cocktail menu. read more

I've come here a few times now and they've all been excellent visits. Great service, clean restaurant! Ceviche and leche de Tigre are super fresh! Accommodated slight changes to dishes. My friends and I are excited to go back and try more things! read more
The food was great, the ambiance loud but good. We called ahead and while they were busy, they graciously agreed to take our party of 7 which included a birthday. They accommodated a wheelchair in our party by rearranging some furniture. That was really kind of them. Service was phenomenal too. They had a cute photo op spot as well. Also, in the party of 7 there were 5 peruvians. The most critical of Peruvian cuisine and everyone was pleased with their meals. Definitely recommend and we will be back next time we visit Tampa. read more
We ordered the chicken Saltado, the potatoes in the creamy pepper sauce, and the pasta dish. All were good but the flavor notes were the same on the main dishes- same sauce and same ingredients. The waitress was really nice and the atmosphere is nice as well. read more
We came here for dinner with some friends, and we loved our meal here. The staff was so friendly and informative. The place is cutely decorated and clean. All the food we ordered was delicious. The portions are huge! You can easily share one entree with two people. We tried their 'Patacones Rellenos' with steak, as an appetizer, and they were delicious. For our entrees, we tried the 'Lomo Saltado' and 'Pescado a la Chorrillana', both were delicious and packed with flavor. We enjoyed their drinks too. This is a cute place to get some authentic Peruvian food! @living.with.reg read more

This was my second time at this restaurant. First visit I stopped for lunch and had the lunch special menu. Everything was good for the price. I decided to visit a second time, this time with my wife on a Friday night. We sat at the bar, ordered a round of drinks and papa a la huancaina to start. The presentation of the papa a la huancaina was good, but it lacked flavor. The cream didn't have any flavor and it was very watery. A waste of $12. We were very disappointed. I ordered a chaufa de pollo and my wife ordered the tiradito appetizer. The Chaufa was good, but definitely not worth $24. They didn't even have the Peruvian yellow aji sauce most Peruvian restaurant I've been to have! My wife's dish was good. I wanted to like this place, but after our $100 mid experience, we probably won't be back. read more
Peruvian food is probably my favorite cuisine, so I really believed I knew the best spots in the Tampa area. Then I heard about this place... This place, hands down, took over as my number one favorite Peruvian spot. It's located in a West Tampa neighborhood. It has a great vibe inside, including a selfie area with a couch and, of course, a llama! We went during a busy time and did not have a reservation, but we were still promptly seated at the bar. Even sitting at the bar, we got impeccable service with at least 3 staff members tending to us throughout the evening. Service was prompt, attentive, and friendly. The food was a 10 out of 10. I started by ordering some chicha morada. It had great flavor, had the subtle spice I was looking for, but was not overly sweet. It was literally so good that I drank it down within minutes. We got two appetizers: the calamari and the leche de tigre. Both were phenomenal. I don't always love the texture of calamari, but this was light, tender, and flavorful. The leche de Tigre had a delicious light spice and light, tender chunks of fish. The lomo saltado was so tender and flavorful that I literally ate every single bite. Dessert was a shining star. The passion fruit pie had a sweet, thick, soft crust. It had a layer of passion fruit mouse around the edge. It was loaded with this tart and sweet passion fruit purée over top. It was amazing. I can say with certainty that I will be here again and again. Probably again and again after that. Best Peruvian in Tampa!! read more

Del 1 al 10 Ceviche 9 Tallarines a la Huancaina con Lomo 8 Anticuchos 8 Cake de Lucuma 9 Los tallarines con Lomo deberia de ser servido en plato plano no bowl . Los anticuchos están cortados delgados y no vienen en palitos. El ceviche tiene un ligero exceso de kion . Volvería otra vez porque es uno de los mejores restaurantes peruanos que casi conservan en auténtico sabor. El servicio es muy amable. read more

Solid 5 stars on this restaurant. They measure up for taste, value, ambient and service. Great restaurant to be for dating, good meal or group meet. We start with Pulpo a la Parrilla - grilled octopus. There are two tentacles that slice in the middle and grill. I like this method because the grill area increases. The tentacles are good diameter. Good quantities. The second dish is the famous Tiradito. This is a slice raw fish cook in lime juice and yellow pepper sauce. It come with corn and sweet potato. It is great dish to experience. Our main dish is the Talllarin Verde. This is grill NY steak in the requested temperature. Steak is well grilled. This dish is come with choice of spaghetti. We selected pesto sauce with spaghetti. This is a recommended dish from most yelpers. Overall we love the place. Definitely bring friend to visit again. read more
