Reviews for Limón in Burlingame, CA
The food was pretty good, but a bit expensive for the portion sizes. However, the excellent service made up for it. The sauce... is also a bit salty, but overall the food was well cooked - sweet potato fries are a must. Read more
Experiencing Peruvian cuisine to its best in Burlingame, CA! The atmosphere was am excellent. The service was so welcoming I... felt like being home. Food Pescado del dia is so flavorful. The drink; man, oh man! Diosa tropical coconut and orange puree! Ifyou are in Burlingame, this place is a must! They make their own Lemonade Read more
One of my absolute favorites for quality Peruvian food! First things first, that Aji Amarillo...woooo ????????????????????????... put that on everything for sure! Located in Downtown Burlingame which can get pretty busy at peak times. There is a smallparking lot right behind Limon if you can get lucky to find a parking spot there. Started off our dinner with some vegetableempanadas and chicharrones de pollo w/ yuca fries, both were straight FUEGO. For our main dishes we ordered the WholeRotisserie Chicken and the Mixto Ceviche w Leche de Tigre. Chicken had crispy skin with the expected Peruvian seasonings whilethe meat was tender and moist. Slather that Aji Amarillo sauce all over that thing and you are just having the time of your life????. The ceviche has great flavor and fresh ingredients served with taro chips, can't ever go wrong with a quality serving ofceviche. Not the first time I've had Limon but the first time at their Burlingame location and it did not disappoint ???? Read more
Limón was straight-up amazing. This is authentic Peruvian food. Be prepared to pay $$$ but definitely worth it for a treat... every now and then. The cocktails were awesome and I can’t wait till the next time. Read more
The food at this restaurant was all pleasant. The ceviche was just ok, kind of tart and spicy. The dark meat chicken was very... tasty and fall off the bone tender, with funly textured yucca fries. The beef tenderloin didn’t have too much flavor, and camewith rather mushy tomatoes, but the accompanying rice and french fries were very good. The menu was a bit confusing - Peruvianbut with rotisserie chicken and truffle macaroni and cheese? It didn’t seem especially authentic, but I’ve never been toPeru so it’s possible I’m just confused. The atmosphere was bustling on a Friday night and downtown Burlingame is very cutefor a walk afterwards. Read more
Tuesday post Christmas, my friend got there before me around 11:30am and there were a plenty of seats at that time but when we... were leaving, it got really busy! All of the foods were sooooooo good, fresh, and hot (temperature) with steam coming out.Enjoyed the Jalea, fried seafood sampler with maiz, Arroz con Mariscos, and the Polli-papas (fries with fried chicken andspecial sauce with cheese). Gimme more! Will be back to try other goodies :D Read more
We met a friend for a late lunch in Burlingame and received very nice service. We ordered a cocktail, a shot of 1942, fish... ceviche, a few empanadas, and the sampler plate. Our waiter was attentive and entertaining. Looking forward to returning soonand experiencing more items on the menu. Our selections were a solid 7 out of 10 considering the price point but certainly worthanother try. Read more
Great atmosphere, very friendly servers and quick service. The food was delicious but a little too salty.
