This review is for De Tokio a Lima restaurant. First of all, the setting is stunning, and we couldn't complain about the restaurant being a 5 minute walk from our hotel. We were seated outside just as the sun set, so the view was extra gorgeous. The service was super friendly, professional and accommodating.
The meal was good but not quite worth the price. We live in Los Angeles, one of the greatest, most diverse food cities in the world, with plenty of Asian and Latin American influences everywhere. So that's the standard we're coming in with. We started with a hamachi crudo which was good, but needed more acid and a little more salt. I liked the mango and amaranth popcorn, and the quality of the fish itself was good. We also got the Japanese curry with vegetables and wild rice. The veggies and wild rice were delicious (it's actually hard to find veg-forward dishes in Mallorca) and the curry was okay but needed way more oomph. We got the beef tataki with broccoli puree and this was the standout dish. Loved it. For dessert, we got the basque cheesecake with lilikoi crema and little meringue bits for crunch -- super tasty. We each got two drinks. The first two cocktails were from the signature menu, the Negroni and a Tequila drink (spicy breeze I think?) and neither was balanced nor executed well. The next two drinks were a gin martini and gin and tonic.
Overall, the food was good but we spent more than $250 USD (paid in Euros) and I cannot justify the price for what we got.
