    “My friend and I went there last Saturday and OMG the food was as always absolutely delicious 🤤😋 we are both Peruvians and we both agree that Tierra Perú offers 100% Peruvian food. Being there feels like being at home eating your favourite Peruvian dishes 🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️ the staff are very friendly and the restaurant is super clean always.”

    “Amazing authentic Peruvian food! The prices are a bit high but the quality is unmatched. The lomo saltado was perfect, the beef was just melting in my mouth. The ceviche al verde was our favourite ceviche but the traditional was also incredible. One of my friends is vegetarian and tried the veggie ceviche, it was actually very good! I wouldn’t recommend it if you’re not a fan of coriander though. The hosts were lovely and it was a great spot for a special occasion dinner.”

    “My first time trying Peruvian food, and most definitely not my last, great service and food. For drinks, I got a pisco sour and an Inka kola, the former was nice but not my cup of tea, the latter however was unreal, would highly recommend. For starters 2 of us shared a traditional ceviche, which I’d never had before, but was a huge fan of. For mains I got Chicharron and my friend got Aji de gallina, both of them were great, but I did prefer the Aji. Lastly for dessert we split the Alfajores con Helado, which I’d also recommend if you’ve got any space left in your belly.”

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers return most for the ceviche, from the traditional to the ceviche al verde, with a vegetarian version also praised, and the pisco sour comes up nearly as often alongside it. Close behind are the lamb chops, called perfectly cooked and tender, and the lomo saltado, whose beef one diner says was melting. Others single out the aji de gallina, tiradito, anticuchos, cassava rolls and the Inka Kola, with the Alfajores con Helado and lucuma cheesecake named for dessert. Peruvian diners say it feels like home and a corner of Peru in London, and several describe friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere, including attention to a large group. The caveats are small: one reviewer finds the prices a bit high, another warns the veggie ceviche is heavy on coriander, and one says the food took a while and the wine they ordered never arrived. That same reviewer still describes a birthday gesture for their daughter at the end of the meal.
