What to order
The plates that decide it
Ceviche 'Puro' with leche de tigre — the house benchmark — white fish in a spicy tiger's-milk marinade with sweet potato and red onion
A tiradito — the Nikkei, sashimi-style cut that shows the Japanese-Peruvian side of the kitchen
A pisco sour — the Peruvian-leaning drinks fit the menu well
Why we say this
Insider secrets & local vibes
The fresh, citrus-bright ceviches are genuinely well-made and the Príncipe Real setting is one of Lisbon's nicest neighbourhoods to be in.
