TITI

All food reviews are subjective and this is from the point of view of an ethnic Chinese person from SE Asia who is a little bit of a foodie. My food rating reflects expectations for a pricy restaurant. We asked for less salt as prior experience showed us that Peruvians like more salt. Ordered the chaufa (with prawns, bbq meat), wan tan soup, garlic beef with black bean sauce (confusingly there is another dish with black bean sauce) and their apparent specialty sweet bbq pork ribs. The wantan soup came with very little soup and lots of loaded ingredients such as bbq pork, roasted duck, chicken strips, cabbage, pigeons egg and the eponymous wantan. The soup was pretty good - pity there was too little of it. The bbq pork and duck was v good with a hint of smoked flavor. The chicken was v tough but I suspect there because it was part of the broth (might be an old chicken or rooster). The wantan, however, was too large to fit into the mouth and the skin was very thick and the taste was mediocre. Overall a mixed result. I think can just leave out the egg, the chicken and balance out with more soup and cabbage. Also the wantan can be improved on wrt skin and size as mentioned. The chaufa was nicely done. Its taste was brightened by the plump shrimp pieces and the bbq pork (again the bbq). Thumbs up on this. The beef was good. It basically tasted like char grilled steak sliced and doused in a black sauce (I think black bean provides the basis). If it were up to me, I’d have added quite a bit more spring onions. The pork ribs - advertised as a specialty of the restaurant - was the biggest disappointment. The pork ribs did not have any “porky” taste and the meat texture was odd. It was overwhelmed by the sauce which I would say tasted exactly like the thai sweet chilli sauce I can buy at any random supermarket at home. I gave a 5 for atmosphere (for a tourist) as the restaurant was packed with Peruvians out for lunch. I gave a 3 for service because (a) the handle of the tea pot broke (it’s a cheap thing with plastic ties) and (b) they actually forgot our pork ribs order and had to be reminded so we ended the meal with the worse dish of the lot.

On my recent trip to Peru, Chifa Titi was a must on my list — from previous visits I knew it never disappoints, and for many (myself included) it’s considered one of the best chifas in Lima. Highly recommend making a reservation in advance, as it’s usually packed. We went on a Saturday night, party of five, and were warmly welcomed and seated right away. Our feast began with: Appetizers: BBQ pork ribs, a dozen crispy fried wontons, and roast duck with pickled turnip. Mains: Garlic roasted pork (my mom’s favorite), Chi Jau Kay chicken, Titi Special Fried Rice, and Sam Si Stir-Fried Noodles. As always, Chifa Titi delivered — everything was flavorful, perfectly cooked, and generously portioned. The next time I’m in Lima, I’ll be back here without a doubt.

The food was average, service could have been a little better. Everytime we ordered something the waiter had to check back with someone, which took awhile and delayed everything. Kind of odd. The amount to MSG really gave a few of us a headache the following morning and much of the day

The Best chifa restaurant in Lima now, the service was good. I ordered Sa ho fan noodles and it was delicious.

Incredible experience. The pato is a must, the siu mai delicious and the wantan not a usual order, also special. Best chinese in town

Its a Chinese restaurant...a well traveled person wouldn't consider it authentic but Peruvians rave. IMO theres equally good places for a better price...may just be more hype than anything. If you're from the U.S its pretty much your local Chinese spot. Fried Rice, Sweet n Sour sauce, Roast duck, Fried wontons...etc.

My wife and her family's favorite chifa restaurant. They love the roasted duck and soups the most. Fancy place for a birthday or other special occasion. This time I tried the pork and fried chicken, both were tasty. Arguably the best quality chifa you'll find in Lima.

This classic Peruvian-Chinese fusion restaurant is a local favorite. For an unforgettable chifa experience in Lima, be sure to make a reservation, as it's often crowded. The friendly staff and exceptional food make it a must-visit, especially for lunch
