The combination of Peru’s rich biodiversity and unique cultural influences from East Asia & Europe, have made LIMA one of the most exciting gastronomic capitals of the world.

Brothers Gabriel and Jose Luis Gonzalez opened LIMA in Fitzrovia in 2012 as a window to Peru’s emerging gastronomy. They wanted to bring the cuisine’s vibrancy and soul to London. Over a decade later, the LIMA team are privileged to serve the finest Peruvian flavours at LIMA in Fitzrovia, LIMA CANTINA, and here at LIMA SHOREDITCH, located at the Sun Street Hotel.

Located just a short walk from Liverpool Street and Shoreditch High Street rail and tube stations, LIMA SHOREDITCH brings LIMA’s classic dishes alongside new menu creations. The menu offers a modern take on traditional Peruvian cooking with references to Nikkei cuisine and Chifa (a blend of Japanese and Chinese cooking techniques with native Peruvian produce).

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.

We were there on a Monday night, it was quiet and had been busier earlier according to the Maitre D'. Not a problem for us as it was nice to be able to relax in some peace and quiet. The Maitre D (unfortunately I can't remember his name) was excellent. Made us feel very welcome and had a nice chat with him at the end. The restaurant itself is accessed from the Sun Hotel entrance (which looks very trendy). The food was very good. We had the bread, Tuna Nikkei Tartare and Ceviche Mixto Nikkei to start. Fresh, well-presented and very tasty. For mains it was the Wagyu Beef Saltado (filling and delicious) and my wife had the salmon, which she really enjoyed. We were quite full after that and shared the Chocolate Mousse, which was a great dark chocolate taste and very satisfying. We didn't have much to drink, I had a local beer (Sun Street I think), very refreshing as was the Limonada. Would definitely consider going again if in the area (about 10 minutes walk from Liverpool Street station).

Awesome Peruvian food. Great flavour combos. Friendly service in a lovely dining room. Lunch, at £36 for 3 courses is superb value too.

Had dinner with 4 at Lima Shoreditch on Saturday November 9th 2024 and it was a wonderfull experience ! The food was delicious with authentic flavors, the location is beautifully and tastefully decorated and above allo : their "maître d'hôtel" is outstanding! He is present without being present, notices everything and has an extreme eye for detail... A pleasure to see motivated and highly qualified staff at work ! Definately worthwhile the trip if you are in London!

Beautiful restaurant and hotel. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Brough my girlfriend for her birthday and is was really special. Andrea was extremely nice. I wish that tuna tartare was slightly bigger because it was really good. Will definitely return.

Hi Lucas! Thank you for taking the time to leave us this great review. We are all very happy that you and your girlfriend had a good experience with us. Next time we'll ask the chef to make a bigger portion of tuna tartare only for you. :) Have a great weekend!
