The Best Restaurant in Chiclayo, The North Coast and Northern Highlands

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Much like Trujillo, Chiclayo and Lambayeque offer seco de cabrito, causas, and tortilla de raya (skate omelet). The area is more famous for King Kong, a large, crispy pastry that was invented around the time that the original movie premiered. It features manjar blanco, a sweet filling made of sugar, condensed milk, and cinnamon boiled down until it's thick and chewy.

This exquisite eatery is one of Peru's not-to-be-missed culinary experiences. In 1983, the Solís family began serving modern interpretations of comida norteña out of their home. The business exploded, leading to a chain of top-shelf restaurants in both Chiclayo and Lima. Here, under the aegis of renowned chef Hector Solís, you can try a sumptuous cabrito and arroz con pato, as well as dozens of other local specialties and a long list of trendy, pisco-based cocktails. The restaurant has a Lima branch ( Miraflores, Av. Reducto 1278) that's no less impressive.
