Cafe de Lima - Marrickville

The cafe is a nice addition of Peruvian cuisine in Sydney. Staff are really friendly and the dishes are just full of home-made flavour and a little touch of love. It is not an expensive place to eat at all and I'm sure you will end up quite satisfied and will be coming back for more! Try the Lomo Saltado (think about stry fried beef made with love and lots of flavour), Ceviche (fish cooked in lemon, awesome), Seco de Cordero (a lamb stew in peruvian nortern style)... or just any other awesome Peruvian dish. Highly recommended!!!

We tried Cafe de Lima as something a little different on our short trip to Sydney from Melbourne. A short train ride brought us to the nice suburb of Marrickville. It is a smallish cafe which gives you a homely feel with fantastic service and a smile from the very friendly staff. We went along not expecting much besides experiencing Peruvian food. Once our entrées were delivered, we were blown away by the delicious combination of flavours. We were left wondering whether our mains would follow suit. Wow! They were amazing! Both meals were generous sizes with staff ensuring they were to our liking. If only we lived in Sydney! Highly recommended.

I'm so glad to have discovered Cafe deLima. I really enjoy the coffee and toasted sandwiches. Staff are very friendly. A really nice hangout!

My first time having Indonesian food and I wasn't too impressedAside from the treacherous stairs leading up the restaurant, the decor is pretty cool.

Extremely slow serviceNoisy atmosphereNice decorSomewhat reasonable location in Chinatown.
