Isolina is one of the Latin America´s 50 Best Restaurants of 2017 in the exclusive selection of S. Pellegrino & Acqua Panna. Chef José del Castillo revives here forgotten recipes of traditional dishes cooking them as they were cooked by our grandmothers. At the same time, he recreates the concept of the old taverns in his restaurant located in a historical house in Barranco.
Since portions are abundant a dish can be shared by two. You can request half portions of some entrees. You will enjoy delicious food and excellent service in a casual ambiance.
First of all Private Lima Tours with Sara recommends trying Seco (Beef stew cooked with cilantro), Patita con maní (pork meat with a chili peanut sauce )or Lomo saltado (Beef tenderloin cooked in a wok with tomatoes, onions, chili and potatoes). Furthermore, their Ceviche served with a fried octopus on top is also higghly recommended. If you are in mood for a great soup, then ask for a Sancochado (tender meat cooked with vegetables.)
