Best Latin American Restaurants in Canonbury

Our first day experience of Peruvian food. We’re not the most experienced with ‘fancy’ food, but this was the most beautifully presented we’ve ever had. It was also incredibly tasty and we left comfortably full without feeling we had spent loads. The service was incredible and all the dishes were explained. A most visit.

One of the best culinary experiences we have had in our most recent two week visit to London. This Lima Shoreditch , like the other Lima sites in Fitzrovia and Covent Garden, is simply yet elegantly designed and decorated, in the beautiful five star Sun Street Hotel. The food was outstanding as was the service. Standouts were the gamba and tuna tiradito, the duck croquettes , the homemade bread , the beef saltado and the sea bream. The chocolate dessert was also very good.

If Gaucho was an airline, I’d be a card carrying frequent flyer at Gaucho! Despite the busy lunchtime, there was a warm welcome, I was promptly seated and served, with a perfectly cooked steak and wonderful staff at the establishment. In New York & Chicago it was Smith & Wollensky for steak, but in London, it can only be Gaucho!

The place is truly tiny and when we arrived the music was loud and the playlist not the best as background for a nice evening with friends. The staff were attentive and when we asked to out the volume down, they did. The food was delicious! All was very fresh and tasty. Not a broad Peruvia experience but the ceciche is very good. The pisco sour is nice but not the best I e had. I'd happily go back though, and hopefully therell be good weather to sit outside and enjoy a more comfortable ambience.
