Seattle Peruvian Restaurant 🇵🇪 La Mar

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended | Detailed ordering guide Cebiche Tasting (Ceviche) ⭐️⭐️⭐️ An appetizer and a must-try—not because it’s exceptionally delicious, but because it’s Peru’s national dish. The flavor is fairly standard, but if you’ve never tried it before, it’s worth a taste. Pulpo Anticuchero (Grilled Octopus) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The star of the meal! Served as a large octopus tentacle 🐙, it’s rich in texture and boldly seasoned—a true taste of South American flavor. Arroz Con Mariscos (Seafood Rice) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The most recommended dish—similar to Spanish paella. Lives up to the hype, though service was a bit slow. Tiradito Trio (Peruvian-Style Sashimi) ⭐️⭐️ Another appetizer often paired with ceviche. We ordered the platter but found it underwhelming—not worth ordering. Colita de Pescado (Fish Tail) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The priciest dish, not on the regular menu. Our server, with a strong Spanish accent, enthusiastically recommended it from a seasonal menu. We didn’t fully understand but ordered it anyway—and it was delicious! 🥤 Drinks: The Pisco Sour (Peru’s national cocktail) is highly recommended, but we skipped it as we weren’t in the mood for alcohol. 🍰 Desserts: Picarones (Peruvian pumpkin donuts)—unique and reminiscent of a classic Beijing snack. Tres Leches Cake—a Latin American classic. 💲 Cost: ~$100+ per person for a group of four. #PeruvianCuisine #BellevueEats #SeattleFood #LaMar #SeattleGuide #Food #SeattleLife #Ceviche
