Mestizo Fusion Cuisine

Great food, flavor and cook on all ingredients were really well done. This was a happy surprise, the service was excellent and friendly. It’s a small restaurant but the experience felt intimate and welcoming. I couldn’t stop thinking about my pesto dish. Drinks and apps also set the tone, very delicious. Definitely will come back again if I ever visit West Palm again.

I was craving Peruvian food and I found this place and it was one of the best restaurants in west Palm beach. This place is own by a married couple who knows what they are doing, service was amazing, food was very delicious, what else could you ask for! I definitely recommend giving this a try a real gem

We were going on a trip to the Florida Keys, and we were specifically taking the A1A all the way down. Always wanted to do that. We identified some restaurants we wanted to look into for lunch, and this place peaked our interest! So we pulled up, found some street parking pretty easily, and got seated promptly. Ambiance was nice. A nice little outdoor patio area that was bisected by sidewalk. Giant window to look out of for the indoor seating. Open kitchen so you could watch the cooking. Not bad. Quaint. Service was excellent. I have a feeling it was just the owner doing the serving from when the place opened until closer to dinner time, but man, he busted his behind taking care of us and everyone else who was there. Good stuff. And then the food. We started off with the Wonton de Cangrejo (Crispy Fried Wontons Filled With Crab Meat And A Zesty Homemade Sour Sauce). These were fine. Exactly what you'd expect. Same with the sauce. If that's what you're feeling, that's fine, but if you're wanting something different and unique, get something else for an app. Next was the Ceviche Mixto (Our Seafood Dish Cured With Lime, Paired With Sweet Potato, Onions, Cilantro And Peruvian Corn). Now this was a good ceviche. Not too acidic, somehow. Perfectly cooked, perfectly succulent seafood. Plump shrimp and cute little bay scallops. Really good. Could use some pine nuts for a crunchy texture, but other than that, I really enjoyed this. Hmm, I can't really find the main event dish we had. It was beef and veggies sautéed up and served over rice. It was really lovely. Something about the Peruvian spice blend makes it taste like chili powder, but with no spice. Beef was tender, the veggies were plentiful, and that was some of the best rice I've ever had. Really great dish. Overall, this place was a really unexpected find on my way down towards the Keys. I never would have thought to stop in this town to find some food, but since Mestizo has won its place on some pretty prestigious lists recently, it drew me in, and I am very lucky that it did.

I rarely rate restaurants in such a public fashion but this one deserves a shoutout! I was in West Palm Beach for work and this restaurant was recommended for an authentic Peruvian experience and it did not disappoint. Everything I tried was very flavorful plus the owners were so lovely. In addition to this restaurant, they also have a dessert and coffee shop a few doors down on the same street for more quick-bite items. Overall it was a 10/10 experience and I can not wait to revisit West Palm and experience this restaurant again. My photos do no justice but just imagine the flavors!!

The food here was amazing! We had the yucca which was so crispy but tender on the inside and the sauce that came with it was incredible. I also had the lomo saltado and my husband had the chaufa de mariscos. They were both sooo good and the picante sauce was delicious as well. Loved all the food here and will definitely return if we get the chance. Highly recommend!!

If you love Peruvian food, then you have to try this place. We loved everything we ordered. It's like a mama and papa store, and the food is amazing. The Nikkei Ceviche tastes soooo good, and the Escargots was cooked perfectly, soft, and juicy. We will definitely go back again when we visit Palm Beach next time!!!

We had a wonderful experience here. The owner walked us through the menu and giving us his personal favorites. The escargot was the best we have ever had!! The beef stroganoff was delicious and my husband really enjoyed the pescado a lo macho. We will be coming back!

The food was sooooo delicious! And the drinks were also so good. We got a mango pisco sour, ceviche, and pollo saltado. It was authentic peruvian. The service was great. They were very attentive and nice. 10/10 vibes, we’ll be coming back!

We had dinner here on a Saturday night. Food was really good. We enjoyed the Lomo Saltado and the Seco de Res. So good some of the best Spanish and Peruvian I've had. Service is excellent, it's a small place and the only knock is the one bathroom in the back. At least it's clean. Definitely be back to try more. Enjoy!

We went on a Sunday night and the place was quiet so we service and attention was great! I am both GF and Vegan which complicates eating out. The menu had designations for both which made it easy! I had the vegetable ceviche which was very flavorful and full of fresh vegetables. I love the Peruvian corn in it! The dollops of sweet potato balanced the tartness of the lime. Presentation was impressive! They also made it less spicy for me which was nice. This was a new experience for me and I would do it all over again. Delicious! Hubby had mushroom fettuccine with a soy sauce kind of gravy that he loved. We tried the yucca fries as an appetizer which came with an oregano sauce. They were good but the savory dip takes a little getting used to. The restaurant had plenty of options for seating inside and out and was clean and quaint in a hip part of town trying to revitalize. Parking was easy for us in the street because it was a quiet night but not sure how it would be on a busy night.

Pros: Very nice location. A not too crowded part of town, but this place seems like one of the first cool places to open as this part of town will inevitably get developed and get more crowded. Cute indoor and outdoor seating area. Peruvian décor everywhere, nice sun umbrellas outside. Done up real nice. And the food. Wow the food was good. Lots of fusion going on, but that's ok, it makes the Peruvian cuisine more accessible to simpler palates, which is a good thing in this country. Cons: Hmm. No real cons. A few dish composition preferences on my part, but that's it. They should add a little more crunch to some of their dishes, for a good contrast in texture. Tips: Get the ceviche. It's awesome.

Terrific dinner last night with the star of the meal being the escargot, which was so uniquely prepared, but so delicious. The yellow pepper sauce was excellent. Also loved the ceviche! Entrees were very good too, but can't stop thinking about those appetizers!

This restaurant was so good we came here two times in less than a week. It's a small restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating with an open kitchen. I believe it has outdoor seating in the back as well but it was chilly when we came and it was closed. Every dish and drink we had was spot on. The ceviche was fresh and had just the right seasoning. The steak was mouth watering and cooked to perfection. The creamy chicken over rice was rich and comforting. The food presentation was pleasing to the eyes and even more so to the mouth. The owner checked on us various times and his wife was doing the magic in the kitchen.

My husband and I were visiting Palm Beach and came here for dinner. I had the seafood ceviche while he had the lomo saltado. The particular approach to fusion here is absolutely fantastic. We loved experiencing the chef's artistry with blending Asian, Latin American, and Italian influences. Restaurant space is a bit small, so when it gets busy, it will get crowded. Overall, the creativity and innovation pays off, because the dishes were fabulous. Truly a winning syncretism of flavor profiles. Well certainly come again the next time we are in Palm Beach..

Went for late lunch, the food was amazing and the staff was very friendly. It's one of those rare small out-of-the-way locations that surprises

It's been years since I've felt compelled to write a review, but this place truly inspired me. I arrived for a late lunch around 2:30, and it wasn't very busy. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was incredibly nice. I ordered the ceviche de pescado, and just one minute into eating it, I thought to myself, 'This might be the best ceviche I've ever had.' Five minutes in, I knew for sure it was the best. The flavor profile was a perfect harmony of sweet potato puree, fresh corn, fresh lime juice, and incredibly fresh fish. It was a generous portion, and as someone with a big appetite, I can say you could easily make a meal out of just this dish. It's a neat little place, and I highly recommend it!

My Childhood Friend brought me here on one of our trips together. It was amazing and Pedro was so wonderful and welcoming. Food is amazing

Espectacular atencion, comida y ambiente ! Recommended al 100% excelente atencion de Hector !

I think the food was overpriced for its taste/quality. I believe it was good food just more expensive than it should be. I ordered the beef with rice. It was good but very under salted. I added a good amount of salt and it tasted significantly better! I believe the server was extremely kind and you can tell she was doing her best. But we were outside and she needed help to raise the umbrella so I helped a little. It didn't go up enough or rotate because you need to rotate it at the base. The manager came out, didn't say anything, put it all back down and together, reversing how I was trying to help, then walked away. The server came back out to tell us "the umbrellas" don't work. My friends and I didn't mind the heat and Sun but it does get overwhelming overtime. Would be nice for a little cover. I don't think he was happy I touched his stuff to try to help. Edit: appreciate you responding and taking the feedback.

Great ceviche not expensive Also drinks are good. I'd definitely com back to this place.

Found this place on Yelp while traveling for work from Texas. I always try to hit up different Peruvian spots when I'm in Florida, and wow - this one was fantastic! Pedro, the owner, greeted me right when I walked in and took great care of me the whole time. I got the ceviche de pescado and pollo saltado (skipped the fries to watch my carbs), and both were absolutely delicious. Great authentic flavors and really friendly service. Definitely coming back next time I'm in town!

Creative Menu, small gem of a restaurant. Many interesting vegan selections. Great attention by owner.

The day I went the restaurant was very slow. The moment I walked in they have me a high level of attention. The customer service was impeccable and the food was delicious. I will definitely be back. The Ceviche is a little on the expensive side but it was really good.

My husband and I stumbled upon Mestizo Fusion Cuisine today by total accident. We had been out botuque and antique shopping rather than getting cookie cutter gifts fro the outlets or mall. Let me tell you how we found this iconic gem in a sea of the Palm Beach competitive frenzy. I was shopping at a fabulous little establishment when nature called. I walked to the restaurant and asked to use the ladies room saying we were shopping but would be back when done, little did Pedro, the owner know I was scouting for cleanliness and friendliness in an unfamiliar town. First, the owner (I didn't know it at the time, welcomed me openly without question. Second, the ENTIRE establishment is spotlessly clean (a South Florida rarity). As I was leaving I asked for a menu and Pedro showed me the QR scan, as I walked back to the shop where my husband was patiently waiting for me I was salivating at the ceviche options that were popping up on my phone. About 45 minutes later we were done wandering the shops and went into Mestizo... unfamiliar we asked for recommendations based on what we were considering. Pedro's wife guided us through the menu with culinary precision (including my gluten intolerance). Then New Year's Eve came early as our appetizer arrived. We had Causa De Pollo. if you don't eat this before the end of 2024 it is an incomplete year for you! The flavors explode with each bite, similar to the rush of having a bull mahi on the hook. However, the appetizer, as amazing as it was went from bull mahi on the hook to marlin on the deck as our main courses arrived. My husband, sick of turkey, opted for the Beef Stroganoff. i wanted cevich, and asked for Pedro's wife's recommendation. She suggested Ceviche Botijero....all I can say is if you do not eat these two dishes in your Florida culinary experience, you have not been to Florida. As a 15 year Florida transplant "native", married to a 35 year "native" (years, not age) all we can say is having floated up and down the coast of Florida, rarely finding a place we would go to more than twice, we are, after today, to make Mestizo a regular stop when we are in town. ....And, we will be hosting my 60th birthday party on their patio! Seize the day, eat well, and enjoy! M

Both my Husband and I had dinner there tonight. It was totally delicious . The services was wonderful. You don't get rushed so you can enjoy your meal. Also, leave room for their yummy Flan. Go there and enjoy. Darlene and George!!

The food in the atmosphere was amazing, the owner was very kind and courteous, and a genuine down-to-earth, man. The food was so great, the ceviche was terrific, and the steak was flavorful

Amazing! Best Peruvian in Palm beach. All. The ceviches and "lomo salteado" are a must. Passion fruit mousse is unreal. Thank you Pedro!!

This is the most underrated restaurant in Northwood, a hidden gem in my opinion. The food was absolutely incredible, especially the Veal Chop. The mashed potatoes and Gorgonzola cream sauce were to die for. The owner, Pedro and his wife, were so sweet. The service was excellent. I can't wait to go back!

This was a very mixed experience. There were a couple things that were quite good and others that made for a strange dinner. We came with friends who had chosen the restaurant based on reviews they'd seen online. We were there at 6 pm and we were the only table occupied in the restaurant. Later as we were finishing up a group of 6 came in. We did have a visit from the owner/manager later on who mentioned that they had been open for four years and had had some challenges. We both ordered the hearts of palm salad and shared one between each couple. The salad was very good. The dressing was mustard based. In addition to the hearts of palm pieces, there was celery, large sweet corn kernels, and romaine lettuce. I liked this salad a lot. Our friends ordered two main entrees. The arroz con pollo was not very good. The chicken pieces were dried out and both the chicken and rice needed some seasoning. He said it didn't taste fresh. His wife ordered the cashew chicken. She liked the flavor of the sauce. And said it was fine. My husband had their salmon ceviche. He said it was quite good. It was served with a passion fruit sauce. We asked the waiter for some bread, but he said the restaurant didn't have any. Since the cashew chicken came with a few pieces of wonton chips on top, I asked about these. They brought a small plate with 3 wonton chips. They charged us $3 for these (!) I had a shrimp cocktail appetizer. It was a martini glass with 10 medium size boiled shrimp. In the middle was a ketchup-based remoulade sauce. I'd been hoping for the Latin American coctail de camarones that I'd had at other restaurants. I should have asked. We were told that the menu was wrong about the desserts. They had none of the three items listed. They had one dessert -- a pineapple cake. We ordered two pieces to share. The waiter came back to the table with only one piece. We told him we wanted two. His answer was -- oh, we only have one. So we asked what else he had. He said he'd look around. He came back with another cake piece that looked like it came from Publix. Neither cake had a lot of pineapple in it. Nor was either worth the $10 charged per piece. Well, now we know.

Found this place on yelp and decided to try it! The owner was very pleasant and accommodated us well! I had the cashew chicken and its smooth texture and nutty flavor was the perfect mix! Not overpowering at all. The service was prompt and out water container was always filled! Our friend got the lomo saltado and it was great as well, not too strong just a great amount of flavor The ambiance was calm, it had a casual spin to it and i felt welcomed as soon as i won

Absolutely fantastic! Never had Peruvian food before but went with family which just visited Peru. They said the food was was genuinely Peruvian. Loved everything we had. Arroz Con Pollo was delicious. Lomo Saltadowas fantastic. Seafood Ceviche was amazingly great. Definitely worth a visit. I'm sure we'll go back.

Don't miss this sublimely creative take on Peruvian fare. Their house ceviche has the most ridiculously delicious sauce and more generally we were extremely pleased with everything -- not only the food (which was brought out quickly once we ordered), but also the affable owners who made the experience extra special. Restauranting at its very best.

My husband and I were driving to St. Augustine on Valentine's Day when we decided to stop for a quick bite. We called ahead to check for availability, and despite it sounding like they were fully booked, the owner was accommodating and arranged for us to have an outside table since we had our dog with us. The service was phenomenal, and both owners husband and wife were very friendly. We ordered the escargot and yuquitas balls, and both appetizers were delicious. The mixed ceviche was by far the best we've ever tried. We also had the lomo saltado and thought the sauce was perfect--not overly heavy like some places tend to make it. Overall, it was a great experience!

We came here based on the 5 Star Yelp review. It was very good. That's the reason for my 4 star review. The owner was very friendly and greeted us when we came in. He mentioned that this month is the 4 year anniversary of his restaurant. I ordered the Arroz Con Pollo and my husband ordered the Aguadito (chicken soup) and Tiradito de Tuna with a side of rice. We both enjoyed our food.

Stopped by for a late bite. Nice little neighborhood spot. Owner greeted and seated. Very friendly staff. Cool decor. Great music, wish I would sound hound it and added it to my Playlist. We split a tamaal. Good flavor. Onions a nice touch. Dinner was stroganoff with rice. Really good combo. Great flavor, natural and not overly heavy. The yuca fry was a cool touch. Wife got fish Florentine. Very popular. Very favorable. The Peruvian Corn was really cool. First for me. Free street parking. We will go back again.

Fabulous from pisco sour, specialty entre of filet mignon- Lomo gorgonzola , lucuma for dessert, all fab, and we will Cornucopia tomorrow for empanadas!

We came for lunch! The food was delicious, we had the tacu lomo with an egg which was our favorite- the flavors were perfect. For appetizers we had a ceviche and taquitos de lomo which were also great! They even had authentic Peruvian beer Cusqueña and the corn juice "Chicha Morada." The service was also great! Overall very authentic small Peruvian restaurant! I recommend!

We met my cousin and his wife at this location for dinner. They chose this place because they saw a Passion Fruit Mousse featured as a dessert on their on line menu and knew it would be a hit with me. My wife and I arrived a bit early and were greeted cordially by our server. We were the only ones in the restaurant and our server pointed out the QR Code on each table to see a menu. We told him we already looked and were excited about my dessert choice of the Passion Fruit Mousse. He told us they did not have all the desserts listed on the website, they only had Pineapple Cake, ( my wife is allergic to pineapple !). Our friends arrived and had seen the menu offered on line previously so knew what they might order. We placed our salad orders and entree orders. Two of us ordered Piscos, one typical and the other a Passion fruit Pisco for me. They came in 6oz. glasses with about 75% of frothy foam and 25% liquid under the foam. (They were quite good but teasingly small). Our Hearts of Palm Salads were very good. Shortly after finishing the salad our entrees arrived. (As we were eating, a delivery order arrived and was pushed past our table toward the kitchen... (I guess they do NOT have a Backdoor!) My Salmon Ceviche was delicious with a rich Passion Fruit sauce. I asked if I could get some bread to enjoy every drop of the passion fruit sauce and was informed that they did not have bread, but I could order some fried won tons. I received three wontons ($3). I used a spoon to savor the sauce, the won tons were not absorbent. I have only addressed my food so far... Both my cousin and I decided to have an order of the Pineapple cake, ( the girls abstained), so we ordered two slices. A moment later our server placed a single plate of the pineapple cake with four small spoons on the table. We reminded him that we had ordered two slices, His response was, that is the last piece. We asked him to look for possibly another piece and he returned with a piece of pineapple upside down cake in a plastic container, (perhaps just arrived on the delivery cart that rolled past our table?), he went to plate it and returned. We have dined out quite frequently and understand that everyone has an off night ... this apparently was one of those!

AMAZING SEAFOOD! The best mussels I've ever had. Great shrimp. Great sauces. Very very good fish

This place is great! We had previously tried this spot a few years ago and had not really enjoyed their offerings, but it seems they revamped the menu and added many new and delicious items. The restaurant itself is in the Northwood area on the main road and offers curbside seating (great for people watching), indoor seating and back patio seating areas. All areas are nicely decorated and offer different experiences. The service was amazing, everyone was very attentive and wanted to ensure a good experience from start to finish. For drinks, we tried a variety of their items, all of which were delicious! We had the red and white sangria which were both refreshing and a great blend. We also got the passion fruit pisco sour which was a nice and tart drink if you like your cocktails on the more sour side (which I do!). The highlight though was their moji-pisco which is like a mojito but made with pisco liquor instead of rum and it was absolutely delicious! Would definitely recommend trying this Peruvian twist on a classic mojito for sure. The food was also great, we ordered the Arroz con Pollo (I'd say a skip, there's better items but this is still good) and the star of the evening was the Ají de Gallina. Absolutely amazing! A perfect amount of shredded chicken in the sauce atop a bed of perfectly cooked white rice. Get this dish!! Overall, I could not recommend this place enough, we'll be back for sure to try some of their other unique items!

Everything we tried was delicious! The lomo saltado, arroz chaufa de mariscos, causa de pollo and maracuya mousse!! My siblings were in the mood for ceviche so this was our to go place. Only 12 minutes away from PBI, plenty of parking right in front of the restaurant. Milly and Andrea were very nice and friendly, made us feel right at home. We will come back for sure.

Amazing food and very attentive owner is so nice and we also stopped by his Wife's shop - also a must try. Very cozy and comfortable dining experience as well! 10/10 would recommend!!

Wow! It really surprised me. The ceviche was so good, lomo saltado great quality, the dishes presentation were impeccable. Ahi de gallina flavorful! The service was great too! Ambience was welcoming and pretty. We were seating at the patio group of 3 adults a d 2 kids. Our drinks were peruvian beer and chicha morada. The desserts selection is scarce but the only one was "lemon pie" and it was tasty delicious food. If you ever come to this part, don't miss it Peruvian food won't disappoint you! Congratulations to the owners! We wish you all the success in this business!

Surprisingly beautiful and fresh seafood cebiche. Excellent drink and soup. Nikkei cebiche is my favorite. Very now moderately priced.

This restaurant is always SO good! Consistent delicious food that makes you want to lick the plate. Every dish is outstanding you can't go wrong.

After a long day in West Palm, I wanted to enjoy some Peruvian fare. I picked Mestizo to try something different. Even though this is a Peruvian restaurant with very typical dishes, like the tamal I ordered, the Arroz con Mariscos was not a all traditional. We also ordered a Fish Florentine, and it was good but again, not something you'd find in a Peruvian restaurant. Everything was well made and tasty, and the dishes were presented nicely. It is a more upscale restaurant also, so the service is tops. They also have drinks but having just left a brewery, water was needed to rehydrate.

Amazing food and service, the lomo saltado, sea food ceviche and tiradito were the best we've ever had. It is a pretty little restaurant in a very nice area

Food was amazing. It's fusion cuisine so you get to experience the best of different tastes. We had the Gorgonzola steak with a touch of chicha sauce that was excellent. The pescado a lo Macho was terrific, and the tiradito as an appetizer was delicious. Great food and excellent service!!!

The owner is very friendly, but that is the only nice thing I have to say about Mestizo. The food was lacking flavor, and it almost had like a burnt taste to it. No children's menu, which leads to a high bill and the kids did not enjoy the food. The ambiance is horrible, you feel like you are eating in a rundown apartment's kitchen. Needless to say we will not be going back and do not recommend it;

Service was great, we were seated right away and attended to the whole time very quickly. Waiter and owner were very friendly and owner came to check on us a couple times. The food was so good! Seafood ceviche was one of the best and freshest we'd ever had, I had the lomo saltado which was delicious and my husband had the Arroz con Pollo and he liked it. Flavors were very good. Highly recommend this gem of a spot in an unassuming street.

While in West Palm for a conference, my colleagues & I were so lucky to enjoy this restaurant. Everything was excellent. Some dishes had unexpected fusion twists that just worked so well! We ordered & ate the dishes family style and shared everything- highly recommend doing that. The pisco sours were delicious, and top notch service & ambiance.

My wife and I have dined at Mestizo several times. I am a vegetarian and I have had some of the very best and interesting vegetarian food that I have ever eaten. Unfortunately they removed the tofu dish because it wasn't requested often enough. But what they offer is amazing. The restaurant is small and intimate. A wonderful change from larger and chain restaurants. Highly recommend.

Delicious dinner on the patio with my dog. The owner is super nice and friendly and provided excellent service! The food was to die for! I had the Lomo Saltado with a Pisco Sour and started with the fish ceviche. Highly recommend and I will definitely be back!!!

Must go for dinner!!! I am a huge foodie and very picky with food (I did graduate from Culinary school) and this place is so worth it! My sister and I ordered the Classic Pisco Sour and the Mango Sour and it was perfect way to start evening! We then ordered Ceviche: the TIRADITO DE SALMON and FISH OLIVES CEVICHE - very fresh and flavorful. The olive one was our favorite the sauce was divine! We also ordered YUQUITAS MESTIZO as an appetizer, which is yucca with Gouda cheese very good and light! It was a very good small bite with our drinks. For entree we ordered the CASHEW CHICKEN which was a beautiful fusion of Asian flavors and Peruvian very delicious and tender Chicken. We also had the BLACK TAGLIOLINI FRUTTI DI MARE and was AMAZING, fresh seafood and absolutely delicious. The owner of restaurant offered us a variety of spicy sauces to compliment our meals which was perfect. Service was great, very attentive and on point with all his recommendations. We are from Washington DC - this is a must try, local homemade and you can tell everything is cooked with the heart! Loved this restaurant! When back visiting we will definitely come back.

The owner, Pedro, is so nice and welcoming. He went over the menu and even gave us some history on the food. We ordered the tiradito de tuna Nikkei, ceviche de pescaso, and lomo saltado. The fish was super fresh and each dish had its own, unique and delicious flavor. The lomo saltado came out piping hot and is great with their hot sauce. Definitely would recommend!

One of the best things about South Florida is the number of choices when it comes to Peruvian cuisine. But if you want Peruvian food that is more than just your run-of-the-mill, Mestizo is your place. The food alone is great, but it's also a great spot to meet up with friends for a bit and definitely a lovely place to take a date. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is nice - both inside and outside (I prefer the outside tent!). Back to the start of the show... the food. First and foremost, I've never been to a Peruvian restaurant that focuses some of their menu on vegan items. Although I didn't try the vegan dishes this time, this is a unique and wonderful part of the Mestizo experience. My friend and I started off with the Yuquitas Mestizo. Never have I had yucca so smooth and delicate. But to then stuff the puree with cheese, fry it, and serve with huancaina sauce (one of my favorite sauces in the world), I could eat a truckload of these beautiful appetizers. We followed that up with the shrimp ceviche which had huge shrimp, fried corn, hominy, and red onions tossed in lime. It was light and refreshing, but also filling. After eating the dish, don't forget to slurp up the salty sour juice at the bottom (leche de tigre). Finally, my friend and I split the lomo saltado with risotto. The beef and vegetables were tender, the sauce was rich and meaty, and the risotto was perfectly cooked. Again, I could have eaten my weigh in this dish, but alas, it will just have to wait until next time. If you love Peruvian food, and even better, if you've never tried Peruvian food, go to Mestizo!
