I am all in on Lima 32 Peruvian restaurant. Back in January, I noticed the Lima 32 sign in the old…read moreTacos mi Nachos space in Meriden. Something about the sign aesthetic made me think it would be a good place. I Yelp-Searched it, and Lima 32 damn near had a perfect rating based on less than 50 reviews. I'm a Food Blogger. So I try to explore new places and avoid repeating spots I know. I've eaten at Lima 32 three times since January. Lima 32 is a small casual Peruvian spot located in a very small plaza in Meriden. Parking is tough, but they've done a nice job with the aesthetics inside. Lima 32 is also available on DoorDash within a certain area. I've now had the Lomo Saltado, the Arroz Con Marisco and the Chaufa de Pollo. Best Lomo Saltado I've ever had, and I've had a really expensive one at a famous CT spot. It's basically a beef and veggie stir fry. You can see the chef making it with fire in the pan if you have the right seat. The soy and oyster sauce based glaze is good salty. So flavorful and everything is perfectly cooked. Best Arroz Con Marisco I've ever had. It's a saucy Peruvian paella. The sauce (Aji Amarillo) has a well rounded creamy pepper flavor. The seafood, like crab, mussels and shrimp really stand out. I suspect the seafood varies depending on what's available. The Chaufa de Pollo, a Chinese fried rice style dish, was very good too. Huge pieces of chicken. Eat it with the delicious Aji Verde sauce. Is Lima 32 hidden? I don't know. But it sure the hell is a gem. It's must visit. 5 Stars

So much flavor in the sauces and cremas, I was genuinely impressed. I had the shrimp and yuca dish and it was a 10/10! Drinks were flowing and desserts were creatively prepared and yummy. It was my friend's birthday and they even came out with her own dessert with happy birthday written on the plate with chocolate sauce. They came out singing with instruments and helped us to celebrate! It was a great night and I enjoyed everything about it. I will definitely be back!

I like to switch up the type of arepa that I get and this time decided on the orange Cuban, which came with rice and sweet plantains. I almost wanted to lick my plate. It was so delicious!! Their tacos are pretty popular too, and some of the arepas are big enough to split. There are a couple of tables inside, but I know most people opt for a takeout.

It was very cute and I would definitely return to try more things!

One area is thoughtfully designed to resemble your grandmother's living room from years ago, creating a warm, nostalgic feeling that brings back so many memories. And then there's the food--the highlight of the experience. Some of the best Spanish cuisine I've had in a long time. Their empanada selection is excellent, and the menu features a variety of authentic Spanish favorites. The drink menu is equally impressive, offering unique options at very reasonable prices. I only wish we had taken photos of our meals, but honestly, that speaks for itself as we were too busy enjoying every bite. If you're looking for great food, a welcoming atmosphere, and a memorable dining experience, this spot is definitely worth a visit.
