Carnal Prime Steakhouse — Restaurant in Lima Metropolitan Area

Came here for a friend’s birthday recently. Had a reservation, came on time, the host was unwelcoming and very cold towards us. We were placed at an awkward table even though it was late evening and the restaurant was nearly empty with just a small handful of tables open. The staff did not attend to our table, although we had one server drop bread. No one came for a full 13-15 mins (again, there was no other guests that came in and the place was very slow)

We didn’t feel comfortable. We could feel the servers watching us but never coming over, and after dealing with the standoffish host, we ultimately decided to leave. We didn’t feel welcomed, we felt incredibly uncomfortable and it’s unfortunate. We’ve had such a great experience experiencing restaurants around Lima as one of us manages high-end restaurants in Los Angeles.

Can’t recommend this place, but not because of the food, but rather the...

Cozy steak house. Great service, very professional. We came in 5 minutes before the restaurant opened at 19:30. Sparkling water and wine already at the table. We decided to try and exquisite Santa Julia Reserva Malbec. Be aware that you will be charged for the bread, is not complimentary and it comes with a set of different flavored butter, goat cheese and salts. I asked for medium angus ribeye steak and it came medium well. Some restaurants are scared when it comes to cooking it more on the raw side. Medium is medium fellows, not medium well not medium rare. Nonetheless the quality of the meat was good. The carpaccio had a nice flavor to it too. The baked potato was ok and the fries were delicious. The bar looked amazing, if a more casual feel is wanted. If you looking for a good steak house and not having to hand in half your wallet,...

My visits to this restaurant in Lima were so impressive that I had to go back a second time. The service here is truly exceptional, with one waiter even remembering my order from my first visit.

The steak is cooked to perfection, achieving a flawless medium-well preparation just as requested. In fact, I'd go so far as to say the quality is on par with Argentinean or Brazilian steakhouses. The ribeye I savored here stands out as one of the best I've ever had. Additionally, I'd highly recommend the mini burgers with a variety of meats – a unique and delightful choice.

The restaurant's setting and ambiance exude a warm and cozy feel. While it's true that this place can be a bit on the pricier side for Lima, it's undeniably worth every sole for the overall experience and the high-quality dining...
