A friend of mine just started a monthly house music party here, and I was honored to be his/their first DJ. Surprisingly good sound and equipment, and it was great to see what Lima has done to revitalize the space (I forget what it was before?).

I arrived early with some friends to eat dinner and check out the menu. The service was excellent (y muchos gentes habla espanol), and their food menu reminded me of the month I spent in Peru (super authentic minus the alpaca and guinea pigs, which I was frankly happy to NOT see on the menu). Great modern and slightly Americanized take on some Peruvian classics, like various cerviches (including a delicious vegan option), lomo saltado, and lomo saltado tacos.

Their pisco sours are fantastic and so good that I only drank those the entire night. I had them from two bartenders but definitely had a favorite and suggest trying multiple bartenders to see if one of them has a pisco sour style you like more.

The vibes and people were lovely, and I will 100% be back the next time I visit Maui. So grateful to the staff for taking such amazing care of us all night ❤️

This is a nice local Peruvian restaurant everyone should try. The menu had a decent amount of items, but check it out first to make sure it has what you like. There’s a couple things I wanted that they didnt have. Howeevr, what we ate was really good. We had some chips with guacamole and green chile salsa..yumm. we also had a very good plate of arroz con pollo, Slightly different than what you may make at home, but really good.

**As a Peruvian, I was really looking forward to trying the ceviche here, especially after having one of the best ceviches in Oahu recently. Unfortunately, this place didn’t quite match that level.**

The **ceviche** was a big letdown. The lime flavor was so bitter and overpowering that it masked any potential seasoning — honestly, it didn’t even taste like it had any. The fish quality itself was actually good, but the flavors just didn’t come together well at all. On top of that, the portioning was disappointing — the amount of **corn** was a sliver, and they gave me just **one slice of sweet potato**, which felt unbalanced.

Trying to salvage the experience, I ordered the **Papa a la Huancaína**, thinking I could make my own Leche de Tigre with it. But $20 for that? It was the **thickest, chunkiest** version of the dish I’ve ever had — not smooth or well-prepared.

The **only saving grace** was the Lomo Saltado burrito . It was flavorful and actually pretty good. If I had to rate the ceviche alone, I’d give it maybe a **2 out of 5**, and that’s purely for the quality of the fish.

**Overall, I’d only recommend coming here for the Lomo Saltado burrito — definitely not for the ceviche.**

Would you like a shorter version or something tailored for Yelp or Google reviews?

Went here for drinks and dessert. We got the Peruvian Fizz and the Lilikoi mojito. And then the churros. The drinks were fantastic. We’ll get them again. And the churros were the best all time, for me. Freshly fried cinnamon goodness – served with a scoop of coconut ice cream and a scoop of lilikoi ice cream.

And our servers were great as well!

WE LOVED LIMA COCINA + CANTINA and we will for sure come back!

If you’re looking for an incredible Peruvian dining experience, you have to check out [Restaurant Name]. I started with a lilikoi mojito that was pure perfection—not too sweet and wonderfully refreshing. The star of the show, though, was the ceviche. The fish was incredibly fresh and the citrus marinade had the perfect kick. What really made it stand out was the addition of crispy calamari on top, which added a wonderful texture and savory flavor to every bite. Highly recommend!

Stopped in after finding this restaurant on google, and we are so happy we did. Was one of best places we ate in Hawaii. Justin is an incredible bartender, who chatted with us and gave us some unique recommendations of things to do and see. The food was beautiful with such deep flavor, absolutely delicious. The restaurant itself is beautiful and spacious. Will visit again! You should too!

Front of the house Justin is one of the best servers we’ve ever had took care of us checked back on us multiple times Tori was shadowing him and she made sure to check on us as well. We had our toddler with us who’s super picky even though the butter Parmesan spaghetti was awesome he didn’t eat it and they bought out French fries on the house because they heard us talk about it.

Food was 10/10 we ordered the ceviche Classico, fish tacos and Mantequilla. The fish was phenomenal the best we’ve had in Hawaii and the flavors were great! This is our last day in Maui and what a send off this place was.

Best margarita on the island! Everything was top notch and amazingly good. Personally…. I love a great margarita, and it’s surprisingly difficult to find a good one on Maui.. but wow… The margarita the bartender made was AMAZING. Food was great also and full of great flavor. Definitely recommended!

Nice Restaurant! The service was excellent, and our waiter answered all our questions and recommended some great dishes. We started with the Guacamole and Ceviche—both appetizers were refreshing and delicious.
For the main courses, we ordered the Taco Board Asado, Tallarín Salteado, and Pescado con Mantequilla y Ajo. I highly recommend the Pescado con Mantequilla y Ajo—the Mahi Mahi was incredibly tender and buttery. The stir-fried noodles were also very good, with a generous portion of chicken. As for the Taco Board, as you can see, it’s really big! I’d recommend ordering it for two people.

Stopped in for some food and filled our stomachs and hearts. Absolutely the best Peruvian food we’ve had. Shared several dishes, had plenty of drinks but Carly was amazing. Service with an amazing smile and vibrant energy. So glad the parking lot in town was full and we had to turn up this road. Thank you, the Hawaiian gods were looking out for us!
