Segundo Muelle

Frommer's Review

At the top of most people's lists of favorite Peruvian dishes is ceviche, and you won't have trouble finding a cevichería anywhere along the coast. Often you have to choose between either very upscale or down-and-dirty versions. This informal lunch-only place in Miraflores, across from the cheesy Parque del Amor and oceanfront malecón, is one of the most reasonable options in Lima for excellent fresh fish and ceviche plates without any fuss. Choose between a simple, almost cafeteria-style interior and an upstairs outdoor deck with sea views. If you're new to ceviche, you can't go wrong with the mixto (white fish, octopus, prawns, snails, scallops, and squid). There is a long list of other fish dishes, including sole, salmon, seafood pastas, and various rice and seafood plates. Top off your meal with chicha morada, a purple corn beverage made with pineapple and lemon -- it's sweet and delicious. Kids' plates are available for S/12 ($3.40). There are other branches in San Isidro at Av. Conquistadores 490 and Av. Carnaval y Moreyra 605.
