Maido’s place among the best restaurants in the world—ranking fifth on the coveted list of The World’s 50 Best Restaurants—was not earned solely due to the sophisticated flavors on display, but also to the quality of the restaurant’s service. The highly trained staff, attentive to guests’ every last whim, guide us through the tasting menu, enriching each dish and perfect drink pairing with a wealth of culinary information.
The attentive staff answer any question guests might have. This house preserves its Japanese influence, the legacy of a tradition initiated by Don Humberto Sato (and carried on by his son, Yaquir), the founder of this “cathedral of fusion” of Japanese and Peruvian cuisines, with its surprising menu. Guests taste the dishes and learn something in the process thanks to the staff’s knack for being wherever they are needed, sharing the history behind each dish.
