    Lima Nikkei was a last minute pick but it turned out to be an outstanding choice. It is really two restaurants in one with a choice of Italian or Peruvian fusion. A must try is the Lima roll. A delight for your taste buds. Service was excellent with just the right amount of attention. This will be a regular spot when in Panama

    Although the food was ok, the service was as all over the place as the driving. No communication within the staff. They need to rehearse with themselves.

    Fantastic food. Very good service. Nasty cigar smoker (owner?) forced us inside when the property is all nonsmoking. We saw 2 other tables move to get away from the awful stench. We will never again go there even though we are moving into the JW.

    The food is incredibly overpriced and the service is amateurish. Great setting however.

    The experience here was pretty average overall. While the entrées were actually quite good and well-prepared, the rest of the meal didn’t really live up to expectations. The lomo saltado was disappointing — the meat was tough, more like a basic local beefsteak than the tender cut you’d hope for. The pisco sours were also underwhelming and lacked the balance and punch you expect from a good version. In the end, while there are a few highlights, it’s not a place I’d go out of my way to revisit, especially with so many stronger options available nearby.

    Good wine selection. The grilled octopus was perfect.

    Normally I use to go to LIMA, because the food is good. In this time, I don't know but the service was unconfortable. I payed 110 USD for 2 persons, abd it's ok, but that I hope to receive is other service. The waiter's service was terrible. There weren't many people in the restaurant, and the waiter didn't clear the plates on time and didn't even know what was on the menu. He's a new waiter, but poorly trained.
