Reviews for Lima in Concord, CA
We went here for lunch the other day and boy was I surprised. The Lomo was delicious. That sauce didn’t over power the veggies... and chicken. They still had a great crunch and texture. The fries ended up not a crispy of course, but had great flavor. If youra fan of crispy fries, avoid the Lomo saltado. But I would recommend otherwise. As for my Bistec a lo pobre, it was amazeballs.Meat was cooked just right. I asked for medium rare, I got medium rare. Tender and juicy throughout. Egg was cooked enough butstill had that runny yolk. Now if you’re into fries, this is what you order instead of the Lomo. Crisp, crunchy and oh soyummy. Plantains we’re a great after meal bite. Will definitely come back! I need to try their paella, as that is one of myfavorite dishes. I will judge accordingly and revisit this review if and only if I get let down on the paella. But I highlydoubt it Read more
The yucca fried are the best I have ever had- fluffy and perfectly fried! The ceviche was delicious and beautifully plated! I... highly recommend getting the Chicha Morada to drink. Most unexpectedly delicious dish was the crab cake sandwich … I wouldactually go back just for that even though I am obsessed with ceviche! Read more
I loved it! The food was great and the service was really good! The server was so kind and the food is was really delicious!
This was our second time having dinner here. I can't say more positive things about this place. I had duck confit last time.... This time I had the spicy fish stew. Both were absolutely incredible. Dinner was early enough to catch the end of happy hourwhich sliders and booze at a discount. Overall service is great and food was excellent. Gotta try the donuts(I forgot what theywere called) Can't wait to go back. Outdoor seating is great for people watching Read more
The food was good it was the service that killed it. Waited a while actually a long while to have our order taken. We ordered... appetizers and a main dish unfortunately our main dish came out before our appetizers. And as I was paying I gave the waitressmy debit card to pay for our bill and she returned with somebody else's bill and charged my ATM card that was another bummer. Ofcourse I corrected the error and was told that I will be getting a refund for the wrong amount charged. But I'm not sure if I'llbe coming back I really like the food though. it was just a timing of everything everything was slow. Read more
Authentic and busy. 3.5 stars. Our Sunday early dinner for two without alcohol was pricey (~$100), but to be fair we split 4... main dishes to assess the overall menu on this, our maiden visit. Atmosphere was lively - loud like all happenings Peruvian!Good music. Dishes were served hot. Service was disappointing, less than enthusiastic. While polite and prompt when first seatedwe had to find help to get more beverages and waited 40 minutes for dessert: picarones that fell short of the mark - without anappearance or an apology from our server. Pump up the flavor and step up the game, folks! All in all, though, I would go back togive it a second chance. Read more
Restrooms: clean Outdoor seating: yes Kind workers: yes Pricing: descent Got the La Cesarota Salad and Braised Lamb Shank, no... drinks and my total bill was $42.81 before the tip. FYI, my partner and I split these two plates and left very full. The Saladwas a nice size and had a nice flavor to it which reminded me of a Caesar salad. They give you a nice amount of egg, bacon, andcheese which I appreciate. The lamb shank was HUGE! The meat fell off the bone so don’t worry about needed a knife to cutinto it. The beans were…beans..and the rice was really good. I just wished the dish had more flavor. To be honest, I think itwas missing salt but I also want to state that this was the first Peruvian food I’ve had so I don’t have anything else tocompare it to. The lack of flavor is why I only gave them a 4/5 star. This place also seems to being a diverse customer basewhich is always great to see. Read more
Peruvian cuisine at its "finest". ???? We really enjoyed how well prepared the dishes were presented. Simple cooking and no... fuss thinking because the minute your food arrives, the taste will leave you speechless. THE LIMA STYLE CEVICHE, EMPANADAS, &SECO DE CORDERO (lamb shank) were my favorite. Although the ARROZ CON MARISCOS was delicious as well. This is a place to enjoydrinks, especially the Pisco Sours and fresh housemade juices: maracuya & chicha morada. Read more
