    Came here for lunch right when they opened so the service was very pleasant and the restaurant was bright and clean. We ordered the el chalaco ceviche which was just OK, it was supposed to be spicy but it tasted very average. Th lomo saltado was good but instead of fries they give you hunks of potatoes which was different. The best dish we ordered was the causa lima especial-it's a bed of seafood in a cream sauce topped with mashed potatoes that looks like noodles. The texture and flavor was totally unexpected! A little bit overpriced for the portions but it was a good lunch.

    Everything is here so vibrant and colorful from visuals to flavors

    Lima is a Peruvian restaurant with a fun, open vibe. The story of fishermen and the sea are the main theme, seen everywhere from the framed photos on the walls to the wicker basket light fixtures representing fish baskets used to hold the treasures of the sea. The vibe is jovial and playful with bright colors everywhere. It's hard not to feel a bit excited for what's to come. Food Choritos à la Chalaca Mussels with fruits of the sea. It is vibrant in color and tastes with brightness all around. Think of oysters but elevated and dressed for a fiesta. La Sirena (Aji Amarillo) ceviche Comes like a summer sunset, deep hues of amber with fresh fish. The fish is chewy and bounces to the bite. If you like fish and bursts of flavor this is it. It also is strong evidence in backing up my claim that Peruvian ceviche is the best type of ceviche. Pulpo à la Parrilla Tender octopus fire grilled and liberally seasoned with Peruvian spices, it is beautiful and tasty. Meaty without being filling, it's the type of meat you could eat without feeling guilty. Arroz con Mariscos Think of Peruvian style paella. Dressed with a generous portion of red onions and cilantro on top, this dish is creamy and rich with the flavors of the ocean deeply infused into the rice. Conclusion As I am writing this I am lying on the floor at my sister's apartment because I'm so full. Everything tasted wonderful and it was hard to stop eating, even though I was bursting at the seams. Lima is a perfect example of elevated flavors without the need for formality or gate keeping recipes for higher prices. Whether coming for a casual hang out or for a special occasion Lima is an exceptional place to have Peruvian cuisine any day of the week.

    Delicious food and quick service! We ordered the jalea, arroz chaufa, and ceviche. Split between the 4 of us and it was the perfect amount.

    Delicious Arroz con Mariscos. Chicha morada could be better. Nice decor and ambiance inside. Pricing for the arroz con mariscos could be better. Rather on the medium portion size for its price.

    5/5 Tallarin verde: this was so creamy which was different but in a good way because normally I'm not a pesto person. And the meat was cooked perfectly 5/5 Arroz con mariscos: this was also so creamy and loaded with seafood 5/5 el pescador: so good and very traditional Peruvian style with corn and sweet potato 5/5 service: super friendly waiters and broke down the menu and shared his favorites Parking: 4/5 street only but no meters

    I was lucky enough to try their New upcoming scallop special! UNREAL. 20/10

    For the last few months, I've stopped here for lunch weekly! I'm addicted!!! Between the fish ceviche, awesome tunes, and Peruvian cheladas, It really is a spectacular experience.

    I am local to the Bixby Knolls community. I have been bypassing this place for months. Decided to try this place out today since I was in the mood for some Seafood. Entered this establishment and was greeted and seated immediately. Fresh waters were given to us while we look over the menu. By the way, the water was delicous! Did not taste like tapwater. :) Our waiter came back, we ordered everything in one shot. Wine, Peruvian beer, lomas Saltado, ceviche, and octopus. All these entrees were recommended by our waiter. Received all our food within 10-15 minutes. All was delicious! The octopus was a big hit in my book, and the ceviche was tasty. It wasn't your typical Mexican style ceviche ..but a Peruvian ceviche with a distinctive taste and flavor. Loma Saltado was pleasant, the meat cooked to perfection! The ambiance here felt like an up to date Peruvian fusion restaurant, without the fusion food. Nice decor with good vibes. It was a clean establishment. The restrooms were really clean which gave this restaurant quality of character. I will definitely come back. We recommend they have happy hour to spruce up their business as well as some live music. Entrees is above pricing average but the quality made up for it. Dont think you will get large portions here, but just okay portions. The type of portion type dishes you take your first date to. Not to much not too little. Cool place to have some intimacy. There is a bus stop in front, which i noticed there are loud kids waiting for the bus. Restaurant should try to muffle the scene using wall dividers or spacers. They were alittle annoying if you sat by the glass doors by the entrance. Overall, good service and good food. Big Kudos to Jorge for being a cool waiter. He even gave us some tea after our meals.

    I would first love to begin by thanking Jorge for his undeniable personality and customer service, the guy just flat out did everything in his power to make us happy. My family loved the bright colors, the open layout, the modern design that celebrates traditions of Peru . We ordered varying dishes and there was not one complaint about any of what we received! We can give a quick tip about the red aji: spicy

    The seafood was so fresh and tasty. It was definitely some of the best octopus and mussels I have had.

    Lomo Saltado

    I've had this gem bookmarked for a while and I'm so glad we finally got here! While the space and menu are small, the experience is huge, the food is genuinely authentic and absolutely delicious. We spent half the meal glancing at other tables, trying to decide what to order on our next visit! Here's what we ordered: Pulpo a la Parrilla (Grilled Octopus): Perfectly grilled and tender, topped with a divine chimichurri sauce that ties everything together beautifully. La Sirena (Ceviche): Our server recommended this after I mentioned I love spicy food. Refreshing, bright, and with just the right kick. Chaufa de Mariscos: My personal go-to whenever I visit a Peruvian restaurant. This version was packed with seafood (a total plus since many places skimp on it!). The only thing I noticed was a bit of an aftertaste from what I assume was a flavor enhancer. I'm super sensitive to that but tbh, the dish is flavorful enough on its own and doesn't even need it. Regardless, I still enjoyed it. Lomo Saltado: My boyfriend's pick and he loved it! Tender beef, flavorful sauce, and perfectly seasoned fries. A quick shout-out to the incredible staff! I was too food-excited to catch our server's name, but the teamwork and attentiveness at every table were remarkable. We can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu.

    Pulpo a La Parilla (small order)
    Morgan H.

    I love Peruvian ceviche and Lima did not disappoint. It was opened by the same team behind Sushi Nikkei so they definitely know what they are doing. It's a really casual and simply decorated restaurant serving up some tasty food. My friends and I came close to closing time and the staff was friendly and helpful. The menu is on the small side but everything they make is delicious. Between 3 of us we shared 4 dishes and I was still a little hungry after. We started with the Pulpo a La Parilla of which you can select from 2 sizes and we went with the smaller. The octopus was perfectly cooked and we enjoyed the accompanying sauces. Next was the Cebiche El Pescador, their classic ceviche. For $28 I thought the portion was on the small side, but it was very fresh with great flavors. We rounded it out with the Lomo Saltado with the tender and juicy steak, and the Arroz Con Mariscos packed with flavor.

    El Chalaco (Rocoto) spicy leche de tigre with mixed seafood, Inca Kola and Chicha Morada - muy buena
    Lynn O.

    Power couple of Sushi Nikkei has expanded their venture and opened Lima Cebichería Peruana just a couple doors down in Bixby Knolls. Their menu is simple but far from basic, showcasing all the favorite Peruvian seafood dishes. The only non-seafood dish is the Lomo Saltado, which I'll have to try next time. I was a little worried they would be packed on Sunday night, but there were only a few patrons when we arrived at 8pm. Our server, Jorge, said they were busy all day, so that was a good sign. We were happy to get seated right away and the food came out very quickly too. The place is well lit with a good amount of tables inside and a few outside. They offer 4 different types of cebiche: clásico, rocoto, aji amarillo and leche de tigre. I opted for the spicy one, El Chalaco (rocoto) mixto, which included fresh sea bass, squid, shrimp and scallop. Loved the crunchy, large corn and the leche de tigre was to die for. Pulpo a la Parrilla: tender octopus marinated in anticuchera sauce, chimichurri, potatoes, huancaína sauce. $25 for half was plenty and the octopus was cooked perfectly. The chimichurri went well with the octopus and creamy huancaina was great for dipping the potatoes in. Chaufa de Mariscos: Peruvian Chinese fried rice, seafood, egg, vegetables. The sprouts added a refreshing texture and the peppers gave it a nice kick. One of the best chaufa de mariscos I've ever had! Drinks are currently limited to Chicha Morada, Inca Kola, Emoliente, Mexican Coke and Topo Chico. The Peruvian drinks are worth a try! After tax and tip, I was a bit surprised to see that we spent $120 for the 3 dishes and 2 soft drinks at $5 each. The portions of seafood were quite generous though and we even took some home. I will return to try more items.

    Choritos a la Chalaca - mussels
    Vala R.

    We had a lovely evening at Lima. Service was great. We had questions about different sauces and the server brought us a small sample, so we could try them in advance. Server also gave us great recommendations. We tried many dishes and they were all fabulous. My favorite was the Lomo Saltado. I loved the crispy potatoes instead of French fries. The Arroz con Mariscos was excellent and had an unusual flavor that I really liked. My husband loved the mussels. The dessert was recommended and it was delicious. No beer or wine license yet, but the restaurant is cute and we had a great time.

We tried their lomito saltado and arrocito norteno. They didn't provide any aji sauce for the lomito (surprising) but were quick to bring some when we requested it. The beef was very tender! So although definitely more expensive than more casual Peruvian spots, we could taste the quality. I also loved the arrocito norteno, as I love seafood paella, and this was basically that. The scallops and octopus were so good! This place is a bit more luxe than the other Peruvian places I've tried before, which is reflected in their price. Although we were there in the day, I could imagine this place being a cute date spot at night.

Drinks wise, they had Maracuya juice which is their local version of passionfruit in that region as well as Chicha Morada which is their Purple Corn beverage composed of cinnamon, cloves, fresh lime juice and when in Peru, they'll utilize pineapple husks for flavouring. It apparently is more popular in Peru than Coca-Cola and after a few sips you'll inevitably see why. Next up when I return will be the Causa trio, in the meanwhile this establishment comes heavily recommended from someone who has traveled to Peru as they hit the nail on the head with their offerings.

We got the beef empanada and chicken empanadas. Those were pretty nice portions for $4 each and had generous fillings. I liked the beef one more. The lomo saltado was okay - the beef was cooked to medium but only a little juicy and a bit tough. The fries felt like they were frozen as some had weird texture and the rice is undercooked. I've had better so I was a little disappointed. The tallarine verde con pollo is a pesto pasta with chicken, Peruvian style. I love the creaminess and very flavorful and hearty pesto sauce in the dish. Noodles were of good texture despite it being very hot in temperature. The sangrias were excellent. For $7 it is fair for a nice cocktail drink. I liked the red sangria more. It was fairly strong. Service is good as expected since we were the only table and they made sure we got everything we wanted, on request. Prices were a bit high (my first impression from menus a year ago was like, wow nice value for good portions at good quality, but prices have almost doubled plus 4% extra which makes it hard to justify casually going here unless for a nice meal out, minus the ambience, which is where I took off a star)

But the limited menu looked promising so we gave it a go. It turned out that everything was delicious. The spare rib was fall off the bone tender and had great smoky flavor. The beans were surprisingly tasty too. (I always find beans an unnecessary and bland accompaniment). I absolutely loved the brisket stir fry. The flavors blended well and it had a nice kick. The meat was so tender and I appreciated the meat to noodle ratio. The chicken inside the empanada was deliciously smoky but not overly so and the crust was the right consistency and crisp. It came with 3 sauces which were good but would have like a more spicier option. I tried two cocktails that were in the collab menu. The black old fashioned was too strong for me. I definitely preferred the buffalo soldier which was tasty and refreshing. My favorite dessert was the Natilla. It was like a flan mousse and so good. The toasted coconut flakes added a nice texture. The oblea was fun to eat. That cream and jam were a great combo. Overall a worthwhile experience. I hope to come back to try their regular menu items.

Sushi Nikkei is a unique experience, blending sushi with Peruvian cuisine. It's a fantastic date night spot for adventurous foodies. Here's what I got that I think really made Sushi Nikkei shine: Scallops - These grilled scallops are small, but pack a punch with smoky charred flavors from the grill, tender scallops, and crispy crunchies from the popped quinoa. This is a great starter. Tuna Tacos - These are simple and delicious. One to two bites of crisp, refreshing, flavorful tuna tartare in a light, flaky fried wonton shell. Tostada - This was good, but a goof one to pass on if you're choosing between appetizers. It's a good sample of all of the fresh flavors available, but the tuna tacos are just a similar and better option. Nikkei Tasting - The Nikkei tasting is the perfect way to try what Peruvian sushi means. It's a fun encapsulation of what flavors they want to bring forward in their dishes. All of the pieces are very unique, flavorful, and fun to try. I've gotten this every single time I've been here and I have not regretted it. Unknown Tiradito - I am always underwhelmed by their tiraditos/ceviche situations, so it makes sense why I can't remember what this one was called. I also can't find the name on their menus, but I've included it in the photos here. They're fresh, but to me, the flavors are always a little wonky. This one in particular was relying on the flavor of a high quality olive oil, but it never came through. Lava Scallops - We added this one as a bite to our Nikkei tasting. It has a plump, juicy piece of scallop. Shinjuku - The shinjuku is a must order, and our favorite Nikkei bite of the night. It was simple, delicious, and a perfect way to showcase the quality of their fish and flavors. I had a group dinner here, so we all had a blast trying lots of different things.
