Café de la Paz — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

Café de la Paz must hold the Guinness Record for the worst service on the planet. Yesterday night we were there after being 20 minutes waiting for service at its neighbor, El Parquetito, without being acknowledged, but here the thing was worse.

A waitress without charisma or a smile in her face took the order: a couple of empanadas for me and an American coffee for my companion. My guess is that since we were locals, our table was considered worthless, assuming we would not leave tips that otherwise tourists would leave.

A discourteous waiter, in the most disrespectful way possible, brought a small tray of coffee and sugar and put it roughly and noisily on the side of the table, to the center and, without asking who the coffee was for, shouted "BOLETA OR INVOICE" while he retired and turned his back on us.

When the same waitress who took the order arrived with my empanadas, we gave her the complaints of the case and refused to continue in the place. We asked to speak with the manager or person in charge but she said that he was not present. A horrible, unpleasant and humiliating experience. Google should implement negative stars because even giving one star to Café de la Paz (the minimum allowed) is a lot to gauge the service in this restaurant. Café de la Paz debe ostentar el Record Guinness al peor servicio del planeta. Ayer en la noche estuvimos allí después de estar 20 minutos en el negocio de al lado (El Parquetito) sin ser atendidos, pero aquí la cosa fue peor.

Una mesera sin carisma ni sonrisa nos tomó el pedido: un par de empanadas para mí y un café americano para mi compañía. Mi suposición es que como éramos locales, nuestra mesa fue tenida como sin valor, asumiendo de que no dejaríamos las propinas que dejarían turistas.

Un mesero descortés, en la forma más irrespetuosa posible, trajo una bandejita con el café y azúcar y lo puso rudísima y ruidosamente en un costado de la mesa, al centro y, sin preguntar para quién era el café, gritó “BOLETA O FACTURA” al tiempo que se retiraba y nos daba la espalda.

Cuando la misma mesera que nos tomó el pedido llegó con mis empanadas, le dimos las quejas del caso y rehusamos seguir en el lugar. Pedimos hablar con el gerente o encargado del mismo, pero ella dijo que no se encontraba presente. Una experiencia horrible, desagradable y humillante. Google debería implementar estrellas negativas porque aún darle una estrella a Café de la Paz (lo mínimo permitido) es mucho para calibrar el servicio en este...

Cafe de la Paz offers a decent but unremarkable dining experience for tourists visiting Lima. The food was average - edible and satisfactory but nothing that would make you want to return specifically for the cuisine. I tried a few traditional Peruvian dishes that were prepared competently but lacked the wow factor you might hope for when dining in a culinary destination like Lima. The decoration and ambiance fell into the "so-so" category - functional but forgettable, with minimal effort put into creating a distinctive atmosphere. The space feels like many other tourist-oriented restaurants in the area. The saving grace of Cafe de la Paz was definitely the customer service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and eager to please. They made genuine efforts to ensure we enjoyed our time there, offering recommendations and checking in regularly without being intrusive. If you're in the area and need a convenient place to eat, it's perfectly fine, but I wouldn't go out of your way to visit when Lima has so many outstanding culinary...

6 months ago I have tried the causa de mariscos in Café la Paz Miraflores, and I found a hair in my meal, I complained about this issue it and they offered me a Coffe!!! to sort it out,then, I came back 6 months later 24august 2023, and oh surprise, I requested for another causa de mariscos and I found another long black hair!!!! After waiters discussion looking at my table, they desided to offered me another coffee. (that ofcourse I didn't take). My review will be, the place it's completely over rated, for what they offer, there are waaaay better places around than Cafe la Paz, I want all turist from different countries to get to know that there are better places than this one, I came all the way from South Africa to visit my family and eat what supposed to be the best food, but definitely not in this restaurant. Good service to say I'm Sorry , average meals. Dont spend you money here go somewhere else to...
