La Rosa Náutica

Price: Expensive

Right on the pier, this Lima restaurant is worth a visit for its spectacular location alone. Come here for a cocktail in the bar at sunset, if not for dinner. La Rosa Náutica has traditional (even formal) service, with a very full menu showing a distinct Italian influence. Go hungry to fully enjoy mouthwatering chicken stuffed with prosciutto, roasted crayfish risotto or baby goat with chilli. The specials change daily - full details are given on the website.

La Huaca Pucllana

Price: Moderate

An elegant Lima restaurant in an extraordinary setting - amongst the first century AD ruins of the archaeological complex, Huaca Pucllana. Enjoy exquisite and seemingly effortless fusion cusine ( n ovo andino ) of deep fried crayfish and sweet potato, or roast baby goat with lima beans against a backdrop of fine Pre-Columbian pieces. There is also an open-air area where it is possible to have just a drink and a light meal.

CebicheriÌa La Mar

Price: Cheap

This ceviche restaurant is a contemporary version of the traditional Peruvian c ebicheriÌa . As well as ceviche, fresher than fresh seafood soup and sushi is served up in this airy, casual eatery, which also has a cocktail bar. This is one of the most fashionable places to go in Lima for lunch (no dinner true to c ebicheriÌa tradition) and no reservations are taken, so go early or late unless you're prepared to wait for an hour, or even two.

A beautifully restored, 18th-century hacienda in the heart of the upmarket San Isidro district is home to one of Lima's most refined restaurants.

Although there is no dress code, smart attire is suggested.
