Travel + Leisure "You can’t come to Lima without sampling Peru’s most famous dish—ceviche. And this is the best place to try it." Full review
BlackBook "You will be waiting for La Mar, since it doesn't accept reservations and it's always packed. Getting there early is your best bet."
Frommer's "The concept is simple: high-quality seafood in an unpretentious setting." Full review

La Mar 1337, Miraflores, Lima, Peru
From $30/night
Fodor's "This vast restaurant with a laid-back ambience is one of the best places in Lima for seafood, and it consequently gets packed at lunch." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A play on the Spanish phrase pecados capitales (deadly sins), this seafood restaurant replaces the word pecados (sins) with pescados (fish)." Full review
BlackBook "The daytime-only atmo lends itself to a easy-breezy vibe, with plenty of bamboo, glass and open air spaces. One of the better-known cevicherías, so it's always crowded."
Afar Magazine "This is one of the most famous cevicherias in Lima." Full review
Frommer's "The menu expands the notion by giving plates like ceviche and arroz con mariscos...the space centers around a wooden terrace with umbrella-shaded seating, with two additional dining areas" Full review
