1. Central Restaurante — a world-renowned restaurant helmed by Chef Virgilio Martínez, who focuses on using indigenous ingredients and showcasing the biodiversity of Peru through his innovative tasting menus. Arguably the best restaurant in Latin America.

2. Maido — combining Peruvian and Japanese flavors, Maido offers a unique Nikkei dining experience. Chef Mitsuharu Tsumura crafts exquisite dishes that celebrate the fusion of both cultures.

3. Astrid y Gastón — founded by Gastón Acurio, a pioneer of modern Peruvian cuisine, it offers a refined dining experience with a focus on traditional Peruvian ingredients and techniques presented in a contemporary way.

5. El Mercado — presents Peru's finest seafood with a contemporary twist. This chic and laid-back restaurant is a favorite among the city's cool and affluent crowd, who flock to the indoor courtyard dining room for lunch.

6. Cosme — a high quality cuisine with a touch and taste of home, arousing pleasant memories to enjoy with friends and family. Their “comfort food” concept takes you back home, but with technique.

These are just a few examples of the many fine dining options available in Lima. Each restaurant offers a unique perspective on Peruvian cuisine and an opportunity to indulge in the flavors and culinary heritage of the country.
