2 Picantería del Mar

A fresh and bold cuisine in a constant state of reinvention that offers a wide variety of cebiches and main dishes rooted in sustainable artisanal fishing, crab, prawn, octopus, and an array of shellfish and other seafood. Here, you can order whole fish by weight and choose just how you want it prepared. Sitting in the bucolic seaside resort of Pimentel, this is the perfect place to daydream by the sea, savoring life while enjoying the best cooking around.

Energy, hard work, and over four decades of tradition define this restaurant, which started out offering homemade Peruvian dishes like lomo saltado, fried fish, and the popular cau cau. Over the years, assiduous regulars were joined by new guests, the open fires multiplied, and the menu was reinvented to include arroz del Cántaro, the house special cebiche with grouper, duck, and cabrito: all the best things the local cuisine has to offer.
