The food scene in Peru has been gaining international attention lately and many people who visit Peru are very keen to try a lot of Peruvian food while visiting Lima. Miraflores, an upscale district about 10km from the central city, is the mecca of good food in Lima.
There are an incredible amount of options within the district, ranging from traditional to experimental, and from affordable to top-shelf. Here are a few favorites listed below.
Found in the heart of Miraflores, SAHA is a day-to-night venue perfect to enjoy everything from an enjoyable lunch to after-office drinks in its lovely 2-floor terrace. Home to unique expressions of classic Peruvian cuisine to a refreshing list of drinks, SAHA has everything you need in a restaurant!
Enjoy some delicious food on a sunny day or come at night with a group of friends to relax. There is something for every taste at SAHA.
An excellent seafood restaurant located close to the center of Miraflores, Costazul prides itself on using only Peruvian fish and vegetables. This is a delicious and fresh option for anyone who enjoys fish or fruits de mer.
With both traditional and modern dishes, Panchita produces high-quality Peruvian creole cuisine that embodies the culinary spirit of Lima. This restaurant is recommended for anyone who loves traditional Peruvian cooking.
This old-school Parque Kennedy establishment serves simple classics like soup and sandwiches, plus coffee and drinks. There’s lots of outdoor seating, making for great people watching near the park.

Of course there are many, many more amazing options for eating in Miraflores, but hopefully the selections above will give you a place to get started. I also recommend trying some of the street food (churros in Parque Kennedy!) or small places serving “menu” for lunch.
