Founded in 2012 by brothers Gabriel and Jose Luis Gonzalez, LIMA is a short 5-minute walk from Tottenham Court and Goodge Street Tube Stations. The restaurant offers a modern, minimalist interpretation of traditional Peruvian culture, with décor inspired by Peru’s vibrant multiculturalism and stunning landscapes. The kitchen is led by Culinary Director Roberto Sihuay, a renowned Peruvian chef, and delivers a menu featuring creative twists on Chifa (Chinese) and Nikkei (Japanese) cuisine, inspired by the dishes from his childhood—such as Shiso Tempura with Otoro and salsa cevichera.

I decided to only write reviews for restaurants that actually do stand out in terms of service and food, as this industry has been hit hard over the years, and Lima Fitzrovia is just one of those places. Firstly, the music was just the right level to hear people dinning on our table but not the people around. We chose from the A la Cart menu to share between us, and it was just enough. Secondly, considering they were a person down during lunch service, it was still impeccable and they were all attentive. The food was delicious, from the melt in the mouth butter and delicious Peruvian breads to the ceviche, scallops and melt in the mouth beef and lamb chops to the deserts. The ceviche had the right balance and the sauce was delicious, the corn bread reminded us of corn bread that we eat in South America. Don't forget Christmas is around the corner and if you are going to see a show or a bit of shopping then why not try here, it is near Tottenham Court Road. Thank you to the team at Lima Fitzrovia, London, you really made our Mums' birthday special.

Second time i was here. Incredible as always! The Nikkei ceviche and Wagyu beef saltado reminds me of Lima, Peru.. 100% tasty!! We also tried “Tierra y Mar” set menu which has an amazing Octopus and Crab Causa! Loved it! The service excellent, we went with our 7months baby boy and they provided all the facilities :)

We ate here a year ago and the food was exceptional, we however did not have the same experience this year. No longer the taste sensation we remembered. Even the Pisco sours was too sweet and not as sour as previously made. Overall it was ok, disappointed it was not at the same exceptional level and now just an average Peruvian fusion restaurant.
