Review by Matilde Haley

Limón in San Francisco is a hidden gem for Peruvian food lovers! 🌟

I dove into the ceviche limon, and it was a delightful surprise; a colorful bowl brimming with seafood, including both calamari and fried calamari. The flavors were bright and fresh, although it drifted a bit from traditional ceviche.

I paired it with the rotisserie chicken, which was tender but a tad dry - definitely use that mustard sauce! The crispy yuca fries were a highlight!

The Pisco sour with passionfruit stole the show. The staff were friendly, creating a cozy atmosphere. I'd return for the ceviche alone... can’t wait to go back!
