Where to eat Latin food in Arequipa: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on Latin food in Arequipa, Arequipa Region, Peru. In Peru's second-most populous city, aka "The White City," stunning colonial buildings made of pearly sillar stone vie for attention with the surrounding volcanoes and snow-capped peaks of the western Andes. Founded in 1540, it's a smorgasbord of mansions and museums. The top attraction, 215,000-square-foot Santa Catalina Monastery, is like its own city within a city, complete with fountains and cobblestone streets. Arequipa is the favorite base for visiting Colca Canyon and its massive condors.

Have come here two days in a row now. The smells in the courtyard are mouth watering. Sandwiches are great! Lots of good olive oil in the dressings and sandwiches. Bread is fresh. Coffees are good. French Toast is very sweet but great. Will probably be back tomorrow

Well presented and extremely delicious food served in elegant surroundings with a chilled ambience. Sit in the lovely patio or one of several atmospheric indoor areas. There is a menu of imaginative cocktails as well as chilcanos made from different types of pisco. Not cheap at S/28 each or S/30 for a pisco sour (no happy hour here!), but the drinks were large and strong! There was also a range of artesanal beers. We shared a starter of octopus (delicious!) and had rocoto relleno with pastel de papa (hot pepper stuffed with meat and topped with cheese with potato gratin) and adobo arequipeña (pork stew in a rich gravy served with bread) for mains. Both were tasty and really spicy! The service was impeccable. Highly recommended!

Lovely location , magnificent environment. Interesting menu - ask the waiter to translate . We had a peruvian style stirfry with both rice and chips - carbs are us - it was ok. The creme bruile style pudding and the cold beers were excellent.Service was first rate - I would suggest you go look for your self - by UK standards the prices are very reasonable.

Found this place via Google maps and it is not disappoint. Great flavor in the barbacoa tacos, nice homemade tortillas, though they crumble a bit under the massive amount of meat.

After eating at a number of restaurants throughout Peru, it is fair to say this is one of the most elegant at a reasonable price range. Set within a typical colonial courtyard, expectations were high upon entry and Damas didnât fail to deliver. The food was great, particularly the steak with mushroom sauce accompanied by a fine bottle of Peruvian Malbec. Specific thanks to our lovely waiter Ademir

I am not sure why others have found service to be spotty....ours was fantastic. We ordered a seasonal special of a tomahawk steak for 2, which came with a lovely salad and a pitcher of Sangria for a very reasonable price. the quality of the meat was excellent; every bit as good as any fine steakhouse in the USA. Overall, thumbs up.Dear costumer,Thank you for sharing your comments regarding your visit to Alma Bar Restaurante.We appreciate very much your review and we are happy to know that you could enjoy of our Tomahawk and that you find it tasteful. It is our compromise to offer you the best quality of food and we will keep up the good work.Kindest regards,Aleksi FerreyraGuest Relations Coordinator
