    Tiradito Rocoto
    Erin D.

    [Full disclosure: our meal this evening was comped. That said, I keep my reviews honest, and since this was technically our second visit, I can confirm that the quality and service was exceptional both times.] I'm a relative newcomer to the world of Peruvian cuisine, but if there's one thing I know by now it's that it's pretty magical. The flavors and colors are unique and bold and unlike anything I've ever had--and yet, somehow familiar and always comforting. Whether you're into sushi, pasta alfredo, stir-fry, or luscious steak that explodes with flavor, you'll already have a point of reference and will definitely find something to love at Lima Nation. We started out with the tuna tartare wonton tacos, which came with 3 beautiful little ahi sushi tacos bookended by mountains of butter lettuce. They're a little messy, but mixed with the lettuce, any escaped filling becomes an equally delicious salad. If you like poke bowls or sushi burritos, this is the way to start the meal. Next up was the Tiradito Rocoto, a great starter for folks who like dazzlingly spiced (but not spicy!) sashimi and want to try well-prepared octopus. I've never had octopus and I don't think it was for me, but my husband said it was much better than any he's had before. I was very happy with the thinly sliced, lightly acidic raw white fish and all the sauces, corn and sweet potato toppings. The chicken causa was next, and it was the most unexpected and beautifully plated dish of the night. If you can imagine mashed potatoes formed into a flawless omelette shape and filled and topped with savory chicken salad (and boiled quail eggs!), you'll probably be confused, but you should order it anyway. It was a wild collection of Latin and church potluck(?) flavors and textures that somehow all worked together. Our entree was a substantial bowl of Fettuccine Huancaina with Lomo Saltado. The tender, light fettuccini is coated in a ubiquitous yellow huancaina sauce (it's basically Peruvian alfredo) with stir fried tomatoes, peppers and red onions, but it was beef tenderloin (lomo saltado) that stole the show. Each perfectly seasoned bite melts in your mouth and I found myself dreaming about having the whole bowl to myself (but splitting it was perfect.) My only nitpick was the pasta at the bottom of the bowl, which was slightly too salty and soupy due to the combined meat and pasta sauces. (I'm watching my sodium so it was especially noticeable to me, but it probably won't phase most people.) At $42, this dish is also on the higher end of Lima's date night-friendly price range, but honestly, it did not disappoint. We concluded our glorious spread with Suspiro Limeño Cheesecake, a carmelly, custardy trifle with a vanilla cookie base. It wasn't cheesecake in the tangy New York sense, but once you take a bite and get some of the cream sauce and toasted meringue, you probably won't care. This little pudding seems small, but with the reasonable portions of everything else, it was the perfect size to complement our meal. We both tried a cocktail from the full bar as well: he had a passion fruit pisco sour and I had a Chilcano Classic. My drink was sweet, sparkly, herbal, and refreshing, perfect for cleansing my palate throughout the night. His was similar, but served in a whisky glass and on the fruity, foamier side and probably better for after the meal. Overall, we were pleased with our selections and look forward to trying more house-made drink options. Service was excellent and the restaurant seems well-staffed. The atmosphere is tasteful and understated in gray, black and white, which isn't the color scheme I typically associate with Peru, but it works for the location, price point and clientele. The food brings all the color, right? Pop music played at a medium volume in the background but it was not disruptive to conversation. It was busier tonight (Friday) than the last time we came, but that's only about 5-6 tables, so it was still fairly quiet. We were asked if we had reservations at the door, but I'm pretty sure they're not required. Price-wise, it's ideal for special occasions and date nights for middle class folks like us, but there are options to fit most budgets. If you're looking to embark on a flavor adventure that'll have you Peru-sing your palate, I wholeheartedly recommend Lima Nation. From the vibrant dishes to the warm hospitality, it's a dining experience that brings the joy and warmth of Peruvian cuisine to the east side of Wichita. ¡Buen provecho!

    This place is unreal. It's one of my favorite restaurants in the entire world. I'm not from here but always have to come here while I'm in town. Tallarin Verde with Lomo was amazing. It was some of the most tender beef I've ever had, cooked perfectly medium rare. the sauces are delectable; perfect dish. I usually do takeout, but they're always on time and service is friendly

    Some sort of fettuccine with shrimp and a delicious sauce. It's topped with burrata.

    Absolutely amazing food with wonderful flavor. We went the weekend of Valentine's Day so they were a bit busy and understaffed but, they made up for it.

    Tiradito Rocoto
    Arli L.

    Today I went to Lima Nation for the first time during lunch and I was blown away! I had heard amazing reviews so my expectations were high and this meal absolutely exceeded them. First I had the shrimp causa off of the lunch menu. This lunch menu portion was so much food, it could have been a meal! The shrimp was delightful and flavorful and the mix with the potatoes was delicious! There was an avocado sauce with it that I could easily have bathed in! Next they delivered some beef empanadas and 2 sauces that were a great change of pace for my mouth. The meat was tender and flavorful and the dough was crispy but not heavy! For my main I was able to enjoy tiradito rocoto. The tart citrus flavors helped the fish and octopus just blossom! It was deliciously light and amazing! Having an amazing meal so far, I had to try dessert. I went with the cheesecake and it was amazing! The cheesecake was not heavy and the entire dessert was perfectly sized! This place was absolutely amazing! I know some have mentioned the price and it's not cheap, but with how fresh and delicious everything is, I think it's more than fair! I am already excited about going back! Thank you so much for wonderful recommendations, friendly service, a beautifully clean restaurant, and of course delicious food!

    My absolute favorite restaurant in Wichia! Great ambience, fabulously fresh food selections, and the service is exemplary!

    We usually have to travel to Chicago LA or New York to have food of this quality. Why doesn't Wichita show up? The first time I came here, there were three well-known chefs and their families having dinner. They know something you don't. This is the place I would go to twice a week and this is the only place that I've ever put a review on. I'm so new at posting things like this, but the service is phenomenal. The restaurant is one of the cleanest I've ever been in. I don't use this word often, but this was absolutely amazing.

    I'm not one to leave a review but for this place, I really wanted to, just to make sure people know what a great place this is. This is my second time here and both times food, service and ambiance were amazing, 5/5. It's a bit on the pricier side but it makes up for it with quality and quantity and makes for a great date night. Everything we got: the passion fruit alcoholic drink, ceviche as an appetizer, lomo saltado and the shrimp fettuccine, had a lot of flavor, and was a good serving size. I will also add they taste great as leftovers the next day as well. The staff are sweet and knowledgeable about recommendations if you need it. Honestly, this is one of my favorite places now in Wichita and will definitely come back when I can.

    By far my favorite meal I had in Wichita (and I ate a lot of meals). Sabor is a smaller restaurant…read moreright in Old Town, it's bright and vibrant. The service was incredible, the owner was walking around talking to tables and the bartender happily offered me suggestions on what to eat and drink. I started with the salmon croquettes. I am so glad I stepped outside my comfort zone and ordered these instead of some of the transitional Latin starters on the menu. These were perfectly fried, beautifully crispy but, creamy on the inside. They didn't taste fishy at all and dipped into the fragrant tartar sauce it was an amazing bite. Surprisingly it also came with a flavorful fresh corn and black bean salsa. For my main I went with the suggestion of the bartender (my server) and I was so glad I did. The Churrasco Steak was a standout! And the choices of sauces on the side made this an exciting dish to eat, I would highly recommend ordering more than one sauce. The steak was tender and cooked wonderfully with a nice char from the grill. Sometimes with skirt steak it can be tough and overcooked, not at Sabor! It had a strong garlic and citrus flavor, definitely had been marinated which helped keep the meat tender. The mash on the side I believe was a chipotle mashed potato which elevated a traditional steak and potatoes to something unmistakably Latin. I cannot wait to return here because the menu is large and there are so many special dishes I want to sample.

    This queso was FIRREEEEE. Muscles were delish especially…read morewith the chorizo. Steak tacos equally as great. But the real winner here was the tres leeches cake WOWWWWWWWWWWW
