La Limena Grill - Rockville

A wonderfully authentic Peruvian restaurant! For appetizers, I highly recommend the tequeños, causa sampler, leche de tigre (the sauce from the ceviche, which is quite sour and salty), and anticucho. However, the ceviche was just okay—it lacked flavor when we tried it. For the main dishes, I suggest trying aji de gallina, lomo saltado, parihuela, and tacu tacu. As for desserts, both the lucuma mousse and alfajores are really good, but the picarones were just average. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal here and would definitely come back.

One of the best restaurants in the city! It’s a bit of a drive from DC, but it’s definitely worth it. Everything that’s grilled is excellent, and the pisco sours are amazing. The soups are out of this world! I highly recommend visiting this place if you enjoy Peruvian cuisine.
