The 13 Best Peruvian Restaurants In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation

"The next time an unprompted craving for citrusy fish and giant mussels pops into your head, go here. Barra Callao is a small ceviche counter in North Miami Beach that makes excellent causas, ceviches, and choros. Since the place is exclusively counter seating, everyone gets a view of the chef assembling beautiful dishes with the kind of finesse you see from a figure skater mid-jump. Even though the chef prepares food quickly, he’s doing it with very little help. So when this place gets packed (it almost always is), be prepared to hang around for a while and enjoy the salsa music playing on the TV. There are only 12 seats at the counter and Barra doesn’t take reservations. You’re pretty much guaranteed a wait for a weekend dinner. Go for lunch on a weekday if you’re short on time. If you plan on coming with a bigger group, avoid the weekend altogether and drop in on Monday." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
