Girl T.

Everything was superb. From the speedy service to the drinks and food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Went on a Friday night and it fills up pretty quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter explained all the specials and kept our waters filled. All our dishes were amazing and even tried something new. The Che' Carlos was worth every bite and had a sauce that we afterwards dipped everything into. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pleasant Friday night dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Just got back from Peru where we ate up a storm. We always knew Peruvian food here was great, but now we know for sure the food here is just as good rivaling their homeland. Dr Limon's ceviches, causas, chaufas, and ají de gallina were top notch. The service was quick and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself was bright, clean, spacious, and vibing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will be adding this chain to our Peruvian craving list.

I went with my mom to Dr Limon for my favorite ceviche! It was fresh and delicious, with just the right amount of fish. Looks are deceiving because it doesn't look like it's a large amount of food, but it is large enough to share. We also ordered the arroz chaufa with chicken. This was superb! Flavorful without being overly salty and there is more than enough to share. The surprise treat was the passionfruit creme brulee. I don't like passionfruit, but this was delicious! Creamy and not overly sweet...definitely hit the spot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was great and the ambiance was comfortable and trendy, with some great tunes![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I am so glad Dr Limon is close to my mom's house (right across the street from FIU). I'll definitely be back when Im in town!!

Psychiatrist ceviche: fish, shrimp and calamari

Gigliola D.

First time eating at a Dr. Limón and it did not disappoint! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is small but tables are spaced out enough to not seem overcrowded. It is nicely decorated and has more of a casual dinning ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] From the start the service was great. Our server explained the specials and gave us suggestions when ordering. She made sure to mention if something was spicy or had an ingredient worth mentioning. We had drinks to start. I ordered a traditional Pizco sour which is a drink Peru is known for. It was a great cocktail, it had a nice taste and it had that alcohol kick. My daughter ordered a passion fruit pizco and she loved it too. My husband had what is called a coconut lemonade which in non alcoholic. It was very refreshing. For food we had a ceviche called "Psychiatrist". It had fish, shrimp and octopus and it was delicious. It had a little spice and had the perfect lime balance that a ceviche should have. We also had a seafood grill which was a dish with shrimp, white fish, calamari, octopus and mussels. It came with an ají sauce and leche de tigre sauce which was spicy. The grilled seafood was perfectly cooked and the spices delicious. My husband and I shared both and the portions were just right. My daughter had a ceviche in a soy and sesame sauce. It had a perfect balance taste of citric and soy. The prices were between $18-30 but the portions and quality of food is worth it. We will definitely be returning.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Good ceviche in a casual setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is super convenient and a plus over other locations. Staff were friendly and amicable.

Messi Roll (foreground) and Remedio Casero Mix

Erik F.

As always, fantastic food and service at Dr. Limon! [[HIGHLIGHT]]While visiting upon opening, the dining room was quite busy an hour later.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had the usual Remedio Casero Mix, and added the Messi Roll along w wine and a sangria. The ceviche was fresh and energizing. The Messi Roll was rich and full of flavor w nice layer of crab topping. I finished up w a cortadito for dessert. The staff is warm and helpful, and very patient w my hacking thru the espanol language. An added bonus was our upbeat chat with manager Carla.

This restaurant was a total disappointment and a straight-up rip-off. I ordered a Lomo Saltado with rice listed for $20, but my bill showed $32 for something called Trilogía Peruana -- which turned out to be a ball of rice, one potato, and three tiny pieces of lomo. When I questioned it, the staff couldn't explain why. The waiters clearly didn't understand what we ordered and kept suggesting random items without warning us about the prices. A glass of sangria was $18, mostly ice with barely any drink. But the worst was the ceviche. I asked for a simple one and got a bowl of overly spicy soup with a few fish chunks and five fried octopus slices -- and they charged $26 for it, while the giant ceviche sampler costs only $35! It makes no sense at all. After checking online, I found out this place is actually known for overcharging customers, and now I believe it. Between the confusion, inflated prices, and poor service, this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had. Avoid this place -- they take advantage of people.

Went there for lunch and it was a good experience. I've been to the other Dr. Limon location. My ceviche had a lot of shrimp and I think it was a good value for ceviche. The staff was really nice and helpful. My server was very knowledgeable about the menu. The two cons why I have this place a 4 rather than a 5: - the tuna in my opinion had too much different flavors going on. I think it would've benefitted if the white sauce was excluded - I think the menu should make it more transparent that if you order ceviche with just shrimp it'll cost more (I don't remember the specific numbers but I think it went from $21 to $27) Other than that, I had a good experience. I'll come back to try more stuff.

Can't remember the name but this was Morongo topped with Mahi and added shrimp with a type of coconut cream sauce.

Nasha W.

We thoroughly enjoyed our food at Dr. Limon. I appreciated all the little details. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Every table immediately welcomes you with a fresh lime (the lime didn't stay at our table and left us longing for some).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When our server arrived we were greeted with what was basically a pureed ceviche, which altbough it was a bit salty was absolutely delicious, and I recommend topping a tostone with some of this stuff. They also brought out some roasted corn kernels to nibble on. Our server was very friendly and helpful eith understanding the menu items. We ordered the Lomo Saltado, a Morongo plate, and a seafood plate. Everything was absolutely delicious. I loved all the attention to detail. The food was beautifully served, ingredients were fresh, and the portions were generous. I recommend giving their Cucumber mule a try because it was refreshing and just perfect. If alcohol is not your thing, ai was also pleased to find that they served Inca Cola, and they also have a delicious fresh frozen lemonade. For dessert we tried the suspiro al Limon. It reminded me alot of cooked condensed milk with a thin layer of a whipped cream and sprinkled with some cinnamon. It wasn't my favorite but it was nice to try. We can't wait to come back and try new foods.

Mariah B.

Absolutely delicious! Service was friendly, and the food was made to perfection. Sangria was the perfect amount of sweet, and well balanced w the rest. The menu had plenty of offerings, something for everyone in my opinion. Highly recommend the main entree of El Tunche - a delicious combination of Mofungo, mahi mahi and a coconut cream sauce. We also devoured the crab salad tostones. Really glad my family and I gave this a try.

Andrea U.

After eating at Dr. Limon last night, I just have one question: How did I go so long without Peruvian food?! This meal was an exciting, flavorful experience from start to finish, and I'm grateful for the massive portions because it means I get to enjoy it all as leftovers today! I tried the Shrimp Causas to start, and it was unreal! Super flavorful with just a hint of spice to add some bite to the creamy, delicious sauce. For my entree I had the risotto special with octopus and shrimp, and WOW did that blow me away! The risotto was incredibly creamy and cheesy, and the octopus and shrimp were well-seasoned and very tender. My mom had the Beef Chaufas and I was pleasantly surprised to find it was really, really good because at first glance it looked like your typical Latin take on Asian fried rice, which I often find to be a bit dry. Our waiter Luis was very kind and helpful, making great recommendations for my first time and describing every item I asked about in detail. My only regret for this meal was that I didn't save room for dessert! The portions here are massive, so I highly recommend coming with a group and sharing entrees and apps so you can enjoy a bit of everything. Though, coming solo isn't a bad idea - just be prepared for leftovers!

Rosie S.

EVERYTHING I had tastes phenomenal! The service was great. Our waitress was very friendly and kind. Gave us lots of recommendations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe of the restaurant was lively.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Keeps you wanting to stay and enjoy the beat of their music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would I go again?! In a heartbeat!

Elsa L.

Absolutely delicious Peruvian cuisine! For appetizers, we had the Causa Variety Platter, it had delicious creamy, layered potatoes topped with delicious toppings. Then we ordered a jalea. This crispy seafood plate was served with a dipping sauce. The seafood was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Lomo Saltado with Tacu Tacu in Ají de Gallina Sauce: Although not on the menu, they graciously prepared this combination for us, and it was absolutely worth it! The beef was tender and flavorful, paired perfectly with the ají de gallina sauce and the unique tacu tacu, which had a fantastic texture. We also ordered shrimp truffle Sushi Roll that was a unique take on sushi with Peruvian flavors. We also enjoyed a refreshing fruit smoothie, which was the ideal complement to our meal. We visited on a Wednesday night, and no reservation was needed for party of 3, which made for a relaxing evening. Highly recommend this spot if you're craving authentic Peruvian flavors for a good price!

This is my boyfriend and I's go-to spot. It is to die for. Everything on their menu is absolutely delicious. They change their menu frequently and I have yet to order something I didn't like. The service is spectacular and the place is clean. This location is what I would consider a hole-in-the-wall. There is limited seating but it's well worth the wait. Tonight I ordered the Tropical Roll and it was yummy, especially with the plátano maduro. I also recommend the aji de gallina! If you come to this location, request Jesus! read more

First time here, definitely not the last!!! This place is AMAZING, and who knew it has been right across the street from FIU the past 2 years I have lived here!!! The menu is a little hard to decipher but our server was very friendly and super helpful in explaining the different ceviches/other items to me. I wasn't sure what to expect but OMG, this is literally one of the best meals I have had!! The flavors all went together SO perfectly and I was left feeling satisfied but not over stuffed. The gazpacho shots they bring complimentary to start are also extremely flavorful and a great way to start the meal! We sat outside as it was a beautiful day outside but the inside of the restaurant is modern and light. The menu also features Peruvian sushi rolls and rice bowls. I cant wait to be back to try another delicious combo!! read more

I have to give props to my mom for dragging me out on a rainy Friday night to try this place out. Yes, it's a small space, but the food packs a big punch of flavor. Apparently, the locals are already in on this hidden gem right by FIU. We had to sit at the bar or wait 40 minutes for a table. We decided getting up close to the seafood fridge is fine. First off, drinks. we decided on a caraffe of El Laboratorio sangria - mixture of red and prosecco I think? It was good. It bubbles and smokes like a mad science experiment. Very cool, but I may try another sangria next time. The caraffes hold about 5 servings. Next were the Pulpo del Dr. Moreno - WOW! So good! Definitely get this as one of your starters. For our entree, we decided to share the Cuarentena platter which comes with 4 different types of ceviche. It was good and quite filling. Definitely need to come back and try the fried ceviche though. And finally, dessert. If you have an insane sweet tooth then try the Suspiro Limeno, but be warned - it is sweetness overload! Can't wait to get back here. The service is great, food is delicious and pretty easy to get to. read more

My boyfriend is from the area and wanted to take me to this restaurant which he had visited once before. He went on about how delicious their food was. The man wasn't lying! I had an order of the lomo saltado and he ordered ceviche. They were as delicious as he described them to be. We couldn't resist dessert so we decided to try this traditional Peruvian cream which I'm blanking on the name. Either way, it was very sweet and paired nicely with a glaze on the side.

I can't begin to say how glad I am to have a great Peruvian spot this close to my home! I took my entire family for the first time and we left saying, "canNOT wait to come again!" Everything is fresh, servers are beyond friendly and knowledgeable, and the actual dishes are the things made of foodie dreams! Have the Tacu Layers which is tacu tacu (leftover rice & bean pan-fried goodness) topped with sirloin steak, sweet fried plantains, fried egg, onions & cilantro... served on a mini cast iron skillet (to die for - although expensive). The causa maki is basically a sushi roll with yellow potato substituting the rice and this place does a great job with those! My youngling asked for a side of the tallarín which is a spaghetti-like pasta covered in yummy (pesto-like) green sauce and it was a total score for her. The Fiebre Amarilla "Yellow fever" ceviche was another confirmation that THIS is the place to have amazing Peruvian favorites in this part of town! I'm looking forward to our next visit! read more

Service was great! I loved that the waiter was patient and was willing to explain the menu to us because I really didn't understand much of it. The ceviche was good but for some reason I loved the lomo saltado even more. The prices here were reasonable too. Definitely a place I would come back to! read more

We went on father's day and there was a little wait. It was too hot to sit outside. The staff was accommodating, and so nice. The shot you get when you first sit down is delicious. It's the best ceviche choice too. I made the mistake of ordering that and another ceviche made with Pisco. We ordered a full fish and grilled octopus. The octopus wasn't that great, and maybe we shouldn't have ordered a full fish. The sushi with the berry jam was amazing!! I would have been happy just eating the ceviche and the sushi. The kids meal was great! It was the perfect size for my toddler. We will be back! read more

Food is not tasty. The tallarines with green sauce were really bad. Service is slow, confusing and unnattentive. They're focusing more on the likes on instagram than providing a good experience that the restaurant. PS: As soon as you open the door, it smells bad, like bad fish. No good. read more

I had gone to the Kendall location back when it opened, and loved it. Unfortunately we live far from there so there weren't many opportunities for us to go back. As soon as we heard about the new location we bookmarked it. Yesterday, we were nearby and decided to give it a shot. Boy were we happy we did. This location is smaller than the Kendall one, so try to be there early, avoid a large group and don't go if you're too hungry, because you will wait. First we were greeted with a shot of a wonderful Leche de Tigre and canchita (fried corn kernels). Then we ordered the fried ceviche (i think it's called Loco Calato), the Santo Remedio (Leche de Tigre sampler), the Fiebre Amarilla (Ceviche in Yellow Pepper sauce), the Dr. Moreno's Octopuss and the Crab Tostones. Everything was great. The best dish was by far the Fried Ceviche (you MUST order this). The Crab Tostones were pretty good but I would have given it a little bit of a kick with a sauce on top. The octopuss was probably the weakest compared to Ceviche105's Pulpo a la Herradura. The ceviches and leches de tigre were spot on. I must say that prices are a bit on the high end, wish they were a tad lower. But overall it was a good experience and we look forward to going back. read more

Specialties

When it comes to authentic Peruvian food, most people think of Ceviche. We thought of just that and did not stop there. We wanted to make it a fun and enjoyable culinary experience for everyone alike and decided to launch a fresh new restaurant concept in the heart of Kendall, named after our chef and owner Carlos Brescia's nickname, Dr. Limon. Our trademark is not only a personalized service, but also a fresh menu where most of the traditional Peruvian plates have been reinvented and changed into medical terms. To complement this innovative cuisine, our guests can choose from a wide variety of wines, wine-based craft cocktails, real fruit juices, and of course... desserts! Come and try a "Ceviche Ginecologo", taste a "Sangria de Laboratorio" and top it off with a "Sobredosis de Chocolate". There is a Peruvian food revolution happening in South Florida, come and see why Dr. Limon is leading the change!

History

Established in 2015.

Our first location was established in 2012 in the heart of Kendall by Chef Carlos Brescia and partners Jose Antonio Combina & Fiorella Terrazas, Dr. Limon was creatively designed from scratch to go with the theme of a Medical institution. The creative theme, from the plates to the servers jackets, were all designed and created to go with one another in an all around real world theme. From the presentation of the plates to the logistics of handling a hot and cold kitchen, Chef Carlos Brescia and staff are known for the dedication and one-of-a-kind taste that you will experience with every plate as you indulge into your own delightful pleasure bite after bite. Since we use only the freshest ingredients available as well as helping our local farmers and product providers, our plates are accessible to every type of food enthusiast, Vegetarian, meat and fish lovers alike! Thanks to God, our loyal guests and hardworking employees we opened this second location in November 2015.

Meet the Business Owner: Carlos B.

Carlos Brescia, a.k.a. Dr. Limon, is originally from Pimentel, Chiclayo, a coastal town in the North of Peru. Living right in front of the ocean got him extremely familiarized with seafood cuisine since he was a kid, learning first to fish and then to prepare his daily catch in a variety of delicious recipes. After moving to Miami in 2000, Carlos finally introduced himself completely in the culinary world, working in different oriental restaurants where he acquired the experience he would later use to create his own dishes, fusioning typical peruvian plates with international cuisines. The rest of the story is well- known, Carlos worked for 3 years as a chef at a famous Peruvian restaurant, where he met Jose Combina, his partner in this adventure. Together, they came up with an fresh menu switching the names of most plates to medical terms. The result was a total success! Dr. Limon opened its doors in April 2012 and ever since has satisfied your cravings with the best Ceviche in Miami!

Eddie's Place

To call Eddie's Place a dive bar doesn't quite do it justice. That makes it sound like some…read moredecrepit old watering hole that gave up on itself years ago, and that's not the case here. Eddie's, established in the early 70s, feels more like a career criminal who found religion, just got out, and now swears he's trying to get his life together. Would a true dive keep a decades-old black-and-white tube TV around so you can watch your car? Additional amenities include an ATM, a combination photo booth/jukebox, and even a cell phone charging station, which means Eddie somehow supports bad decisions and the evidence they leave behind. This isn't Eddie's Bistro or Eddie's Café, it's just his Place, so don't show up expecting anyone to cook for you. Aside from chips, the bar skips food altogether. Still, Eddie's plays to its strengths: it encourages you to bring your own food or order in, as long as you keep the bartenders busy. "Cocktails" arrive in ribbed plastic cups, but shots and beer arrive in proper glassware, which is this bar's version of caviar service. A free pool table anchors the room, while one corner hosts beer pong and another area for old-timers to throw darts. Drinks run from $6 to $12, and Happy Hour sweetens the deal with 2-for-1 wells until 8 p.m. That special feels a little sad Monday through Wednesday, when the bar opens at 7 PM. However, it absolutely slaps Thursday through Sunday, when doors open at 2 PM. I rolled in after The Mandalorian & Grogu, which is exactly the kind of demoralizing movie that demands a drink. It was Goth Night, although the DJ seemed to be the only person who got the memo. She kept the room moving with dark house and classic goth tracks, giving the Place the energy of a house party with a fog machine and a hit-heavy playlist. Eventually, she veered from Bauhaus and Combichrist into Bruno Mars and Calvin Harris, which felt less like genre betrayal and more like a Wedding DJ loosening their tie. Eddie's Place delivers the holy trinity of a proper neighborhood bar: cheap booze, zero pretension, and just enough chaos to make you stay for one last round over and over again.

It took about a minute for the hostess to walk in and greet us (the lady in the red dress) and take us to the table. As we perused the menu, I got excited by the selections. The server Ashley (I think that was her name) was great. Extremely personable and loved her candor about our selections and making sure we ordered enough food. However she informed us that a few of the plates we were most excited for, were no longer available and they were redoing the menu. At the end of the night the food was mediocre for the price. I'm giving it 3 stars because I might consider having drinks there but may never go back for dinner. The music started changing slightly as we were paying our bill. could have been the night?

Sunny's Steakhouse

Alright, where to start here...everything was absolutely excellent!…read more Parker rolls (3.5/5): going to start with the weakest link. Yes these are viral, no they are not mind blowing. Deliciously fluffy and great with butter but they are still just dinner rolls. Hokkaido scallops (5/5): honestly one of the best bites of food I've had in years. The sweetness of the scallops, slight spice from the sauce, and balanced with pickled ginger...perfection. No words after bite 1, near tears after bite 2. Agnolotti (5/5): get this. The corn, crab, sauce...everything about this worked. This is like a healthy work environment where everyone lifts each other up. You'll get the sweet, the chew, the softness, the salty. Just get it. 26 oz ribeye (4.5/5) with peppercorn sauce (4/5) and bone marrow vinaigrette (5/5): okay so this dish was our main and it did not disappoint. You can definitely taste the beefiness from the dry aging and that alone was enough. With the peppercorn sauce it was great. BUT with the bone marrow vinaigrette, that took this steak from "really good" to life changing experience. Kouign amann ice cream sandwich (5/5): if you've never had a kouign amann, it's like if a croissant and a cake had a baby. Add in some ice cream and this dessert would've had to choke me to death on the way down to not get a 5/5. I'm alive and arguably more than ever after eating this platonic concept of dessert perfection. Get this! The restaurant was beautiful, interior looks like an NYC steakhouse while the exterior outdoor seating is very Miami. The service was some of the best I've ever had. Every server was knowledgeable, friendly, and you felt like they all really enjoy being here. Overall, if you're in Miami, you have to come here.

World Cup traffic had us running 30 minutes late for our reservation, but huge props to the host for seating us on a packed night. They gave us a 90 minute limit, which worked out great for our flight timeline. We were seated outside at a tiny 2 top table (maybe it's a Miami thing). While the courtyard setup is really pretty, the tables are squished so close together. When you order as much food as we do, it's a tight squeeze and feels a bit uncomfortable (and risky for dropping dishes!). Plus, Florida heat + the abundance of flies they had outdoors is a thing. Our waitress Vanessa made sure we got all of our dishes quickly so we could make our flight. Food we ordered that are a must: Parker House Rolls (that honey butter dip is addicting), Caesar Salad, Wagyu Beef Carpaccio, and the Blue Crab Agnolotti (my absolute favorite dish of the night). Paired it with the Circus Permit cocktail which was super fun. Food that I would skip: Sent back the duck terrine. The duck steak fell flat despite all the hype, and the yellowedge grouper was covered in way too many leeks for my taste. All in all, a solid 7/10 vibe with a friendly bar up front. I'd drop in for drinks and a few specific plates, but it's not an absolute must repeat for me next time I'm in Miami.

I showed up at close to 11 pm and ask the server to bring us a menu and he was like, "we are close; we close our kitchen at 11 pm. I was like, "really ?" it is not even 11 pm yet. He was like, "sorry sir, that is our policy." I then asked to speak with the manager and three long minutes later and guy with blood shot red eyes appeared and he said exactly the same thing. I asked him, " so if your guests presently seated at your tables ask for something from the menu what are you going to tell them..?" He said, that our kitchen is close. This was such a lie because I saw the such chefs rolling such rolls. Anyways. the manager / owner is an idiot. He should be tested from medicinal marijuana use. I am posting my review on Google and their other location on SW 8 Street. For the record, you guys have no idea how to use your discretion. Rule of thumb, "the customer is always right.." Good riddance. read more

I have Been coming here for years. But today is and will be my last time golng to a Dr. Limón. It's 11:27 am. Trying to go in to have lunch and we are greeted with "sorry we are not OPEN yet, we open at 11:30 am". And they locked the door behind us as we walked away!!. Please!!!! this is why restaurants are going out of business and don't last. We could have gotten in and have a coke or water. They are having a team meeting 3 min before opening. Great planning!! And still have 4 people standing around not in the meeting but they could not sit us for 3 min!!! read more

Absolutely Amazing Experience at Dr. Limón! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere at Dr. Limón was vibrant, welcoming, and full of energy. The food was nothing short of incredible--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish felt like a celebration of Peruvian cuisine. A huge shoutout to Valentina, our server, who made the experience even more special. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great time. Her recommendations were spot on, and her warm personality made us feel right at home. read more

Dr. Limón is one of my favorite spots for Peruvian food. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. The rotisserie chicken is perfectly seasoned, and the sides are just as good. The service is friendly and efficient, even when the restaurant is busy. The atmosphere is casual, clean, and great for dining with family or friends. Every visit has been a great experience, and the quality of the food never disappoints. I highly recommend Dr. Limón if you're looking for authentic Peruvian cuisine and excellent service. read more

This restaurant has great food for anyone. We made our line and it was worth it because the food was outstanding and I highly recommend to get a sample platter of your favorite Peruvian dishes so you can have a little bit of everything.This is one of my favorite places in Miami to come and enjoy delicious food. Good servings and flavors to both food and drinks.The service was just ok. Sometimes the servers don't understand English and my order comes out wrong. read more

The first time I placed an order for pick-up, I accidentally placed the order with a different location and the employees took quick measures to correct the order and prepare my meal right then so I could leave a happy customer. Small place but amazing food, juices and cocktails. I would highly recommend it. Great, great, great Peruvian food and amazing service. read more

The tallarín verde con churrasco at Dr. Limón is a must-try dish. The green noodles are perfectly cooked and the churrasco steak is juicy and flavorful. The flavors complement each other beautifully, creating a delicious and satisfying meal. Don't miss out on this culinary delight at Dr. Limón! read more

I went here for my birthday and everything was so delicious! Everyone enjoyed their food as well and we all had a great time! So glad I found this place. Would recommend! Only thing I would like to say the music was a bit too loud and think it should be lowered to a more comfortable level :) read more

Really good ceviche and Peruvian food. The Causa dish was great; it had all these different flavors. Drinks were made with passion and tasted good. I'm disappointed that they had no Pisco Sour drink, but other than that nice place and good food. read more
