    We recently dined at Lima Bistro and had a mixed experience. The Tuna Tartare and scallops were delicious, with the scallops being a standout. Unfortunately, the main courses were disappointing. The Lamb Shank was served cold, and it took some time to receive it back. The Lomo Saltado was overly saucy, which detracted from the dish. This was the first time we felt the food didn’t meet Lima Bistro’s usual high standards. However, the Manager, who was unaware of the situation, was very kind, open to feedback, and sincerely apologetic. Her professionalism left a positive impression, and we’re looking forward to giving Lima Bistro another chance in the near future..

    The waitress, drinks and food were excellent. We ate inside this year. It was Christmas break with boisterous toddlers inside. September is more relaxing.

    Outstanding fresh food, service and cocktails. Totally recommended, as it is hard to find something similar in the island. Xmas music a bit too loud for my taste as i couldnt hear the specials properly from the waitress, but the rest was amazing! We ll be back for sure :)

    We are going to Lima for years and typically are always happy. Love the cocktails (although 17$ for a small one is a spicy price). Yesterday we were a bit let down. Although the scallops were amazing as always, the octopus was quite dry the pesto sauce ordinary. We further ordered the 2 ceviches on the menu which turned out to have the exact same ingredients except for the chips vs calamari on top. The fish the sauce, cilantro and sweet potato were the exact same. That was definitely a big surprise and not what we expected. We were going to have another drink but the waitress forgot about us and so we didn’t receive the menu until our dinner was long done. Hope to see you next year. For this year we may switch out second reservation unfortunately :(
