The 38 Best Restaurants in Lima | Eater

"This much-loved restaurant keeps getting better after 18 years of operation, and you’ll often find it packed even on Monday nights. That success is based on a combination of lively ambience and incredibly pleasurable dishes. Chef-owner Rafael Osterling imbues dishes with inspiration from his worldly travels while celebrating Peruvian flavors and produce. Meanwhile, head chef Rodrigo Alzamora gets credit for exacting technique and quality ingredients. The menu offers subtlety in the crab ravioli, lavishness in the spaghetti with duck, and excitement in the tuna tiradito, the grilled scallops with lemon butter, and the sea urchin rice with leche de tigre. Be sure to stop by the bar for a pre-dinner cocktail too. [$$$$]" - Liliana López Sorzano
