Peruvian Lomo Saltado and Jalea Anchor a Northern Boulevard Dining Room

Order lomo saltado and fried jalea in a two floor room with white tablecloths and warm candlelight.

Open Karpo to plan a Peruvian dinner at Lima.

🍽️ Two floors, one Peruvian kitchen

The staircase gives it away. Lima runs two floors on Northern Boulevard, white tablecloths downstairs and a railed mezzanine above, both lit by small table candles once the sun drops.

Start with lomo saltado. Strips of beef land over red onion, tomato, and a tangle of fries, with a scoop of white rice pushed to one side. The jalea arrives as a mountain of fried fish, calamari, and mussels under bright salsa criolla, big enough for a table of four to share before the entrees land. The kitchen also runs ceviche, anticuchos, and a full chifa section of Peruvian Chinese stir fries.

The room holds a steady 4.3 rating across more than 970 reviews, a reliable stop for Peruvian home cooking in Queens. Come with a group, order across the menu, and let the platters pile up.
