La Cevi in Frankfurt am Main

Loved the food and drinks. Service did apologise for being a bit slower than usual due to illness. However it still felt very slow and not attentive. I don’t mind waiting for food but a waiter not glancing at our table for over 30min was unfortunate since we wanted to get the check. However I would still recommend this place for great South American food and drink.

Very, very, very delicious! 😋 The service is also very good. We would definitely visit again 😆

Da tanzen die Geschmacksnerven Cha-Cha-Cha! Dieses kleine und feine Restaurant (unbedingt reservieren) besticht durch ausgefallene und gekonnt hergestellte Gerichte. Ausgewogene Würzung erlaubt allen Komponenten, zum Zuge zu kommen, die Cheviche sind frisch und wunderbar angerichtet. Der Service ist (etwas tappsig) flott und von fröhlicher Freundlichkeit. So wurde der Abend zu einem kulinarischen Erlebnis. Und wenn man etwas kritteln will: Wenn schon mit 1,5stündigen time-slots bei der Reservierung gearbeitet wird (turnt mich immer etwas ab), sollte man trotzdem 5 Minuten vorher ein erstes Getränk erhalten können. Aber das kann den ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Abend nicht trüben. Insgesamt ist La Cevi etwas hochpreisig, aber jeden Cent wert! Vielen Dank, wir kommen definitiv gerne wieder!

Very tasty food and friendly service.

Very tasty food and cocktails! The service was friendly even though the restaurant was very busy.

They make one of the best ceviches and provide excellent service. The menu also has options for gluten-free and celiac people.

The restaurant is good, but a little expensive. Some dishes were too small and poor for the price. The cocktails were good.

My absolute favorite restaurant in Frankfurt! Great service, great atmosphere, very friendly staff! The ceviche is delicious and I recommend it as a starter :). Then, my absolute favorite soul food dish, Aji de Gallina, and don't let the description "Peruvian Chicken Fricassee" put you off, because the dish is truly delicious, with finesse and has nothing in common with a German chicken fricassee. And don't miss the: Bola de Chocolate frio y caliente (hot and cold chocolate ball), which is not only refreshingly delicious but also truly entertaining.

Always yummy 👌🏼😍 Delicious dishes, good and friendly service, and especially Pisco Sour 😉🤩

Delicous Food and value for Money

Disappointing – Expectations Unfortunately Not Met We reserved a table for four at La Cevi on a recommendation. When we arrived, however, no one knew about the reservation. The man at the counter reacted rather indifferently and simply said, "Pick your own." Since I'd heard so many good things about La Cevi beforehand, I went with correspondingly high expectations. The first impression was all the more disappointing: The tables were set without tablecloths – I find that inappropriate for a restaurant in this price range. The menu was pleasantly compact, which suggests freshly prepared food – a plus. However, the prices are quite high, so you can expect a lot in terms of both quality and taste. For my starter, I had the Causas con Pulpo al olivio anticuchero (P5). The squid – albeit a very small piece – was tender and well-seasoned. Unfortunately, the mashed potatoes were ice cold and disappointing in taste. The picture continued with the main course, the Lomo Saltado (H1): The entrecôte was cold, tough, and completely unseasoned. The potatoes were also cold. For €33, I expect a much better dish—not only in quality, but also in presentation and taste. My three companions also found the food consistently cold and bland. Conclusion: The value for money here is unfortunately not at all right. When I paid, it was downright painful to spend so much money on an overall disappointing meal. I was really looking forward to the evening—it's a shame that La Cevi couldn't live up to my high expectations.

We keep coming back for the scallops in Parmesan foam and the tender ox cheeks—our two absolute favorite dishes. The service has always been friendly, and in the summer, the outdoor seating is nice. Sometimes you can wait a bit long for food/drinks, and overall, we find the prices a bit high for what's on offer. Hence, a solid 4/5 stars.

One of the best kitchens in Frankfurt, with an incredibly diverse range of flavors, and everything is delicious. The Conchitas and the Octopus are especially recommended. Super friendly service!

The lomo saltado was mediocre at best. The potatoes were undercooked in the center, as the chunks were too large. There were no Peruvian desserts on the menu. A shame — I won’t be coming back.

We were recommended this place by my cousin (we are both Peruvians), however the experience was quite disappointing. The service was not that friendly, even when we requested to clean the table the waiter tried to come up with an excuse and looked at us for 1 min until he finally decided he was ok with cleaning the table. (Also not a hello at the beginning just a “we are closing the terrace in 1h!). Food wise, while the sauce for the lomo saltado was good albeit a bit salty, the huaincana sauce was also good, the beef we asked well cooked was practically burnt and had been thinned into very thin slices taking away the nice texture of a lomo saltado. There were only two (overpriced) desserts on the menu which was very disappointing. Hygiene: we went to the bathroom, and I was utterly disgusted. As soon as you entered the bathroom it smelled like sewer, there were papers around the sink and on the floor, but the worse was the toilet itself, it was unclean with full of water (or pee?) surrounding it with hairs on the floor. I understand clients can be gross but it’s the restaurant’s responsibility to maintain the cleanliness of the bathroom throughout the night. At this point I regretted eating there because the saying is true: dirty toilet, dirty kitchen. Pricing: outrageous and exorbitant. A lomo saltado for more than 30€ is insane (and nearly 36€ for the one with the huancaina tallarines/noodles). Do not get me started on the Inka Kola at 7€. I get this might be “exotic” but in no way does the quality justify this price. Sure in Peru this is much much cheaper but we live in the Netherlands and there amazing Peruvian restaurants (with quality food and proper hygiene!) have a lomo saltado between 20-25€ depending on the restaurant and an Inka Kola for around 4€. There is even a high end restaurant called “Callao” from a Peruvian famous chef Jaime Pesaque (who has the famous Mayta restaurant ranking 41 across the world and 13 in Latin America) in which the lomo saltado costs 30€ (but again, famous chef and high end restaurant justifies the price). Adding to this that the Netherlands has a higher cost of living than Germany, it makes absolutely NO SENSE to have the pricing this restaurant offers specially for the quality of the food (and service). Very disappointed!

Öfter mal was Neues, so kamen wir hierher. Superfreundliche Bedienung und noch besseres essen! Nicht ganz billig, aber definitiv jeden Cent wert. Wir kommen wieder, definitiv.

Unfortunately, it wasn't so good for me. The ceviche was salty and the lemonade was very, very sweet. I was a bit disappointed with the service; Latinos are usually friendlier. The atmosphere was nice. And the price was expensive.

Very cool restaurant with interesting interior 👌The food was top and very exceptionally seasoned, the Pisco Sour was amazing 🤩 we can only recommend it ✌️😉

Excellent food although a little expensive

The ceviche and tacu chaufa is fantastic. And the chicha morada is very solid. One of my favorite places to go in Frankfurt!

Great restaurant, large portions, great flavors, a combination of fish with fresh fruits, with lots of lime. Not cheap but worth it.

After trying ceviche in Mexico (even though it's originally from Peru), I've been craving delicious ceviche and seafood ever since. Based on the excellent Google reviews, we chose La Cevi – and it completely met our expectations. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and very attentive. All the dishes were extremely fresh, delicious, and prepared with lots of love. Even though the prices are quite high, I would love to return and try more of the delicious Peruvian cuisine.

A delicious Peruvian restaurant. We went there out of curiosity, as Peruvian cuisine meant nothing to us. I found the fish dishes slightly better than the meat dishes (which are very similar to German cuisine). There's also a selection of vegetarian dishes. A small highlight was the pisco-based cocktail, which seems to be quite popular in Peru. The ambiance is modern and pleasant. The service, however, deserves a slight deduction, as we had to wait quite a long time (from receiving the menu to bringing the bill after we tried to pay). But we were there on a very busy day. Overall, the restaurant is definitely worth recommending. The ambiance is modern

The ceviche was delicious, and the three-course menu is especially recommended. There were six of us there, and it was relatively busy. The service was friendly, but a bit overwhelmed.

Always friendly and professional, even in stressful situations! The service is highly praiseworthy, always friendly, quick and professional. The food tastes like a dream every time. You feel very comfortable in the restaurant and you also have the opportunity to sit outside. The menu is very clear and there is something suitable for everyone. I can highly recommend the experience at La Cevi to everyone.

I had wanted to go to “la Cevi” for a long time and had reserved a table because there was a special occasion. The food was good and the service too. Until the moment the waiter poured the hot mango sauce over my friend's lower leg instead of on the dessert. Afterwards he asked us to go back because it might splash when he tried to pour over the dessert. We did that and still we got splattered with the sauce. The waiter didn't apologize and said that people would love it and that we could have seen how it worked on Instagram beforehand. When we asked him to talk again because we didn't want to be soiled by a dessert and there was still no insight from him and no apology, he told us: we could pay, leave and not have to come back. Since we don't know and are not used to this type of service, resentment spread and the conversation became a little louder. The waiter then wanted to discipline us. We now asked to speak to the manager, who was first described as in-house, then out-of-house. We should complain in writing. I then called the number on the business card and the doorbell rang. The manager answered the phone and said he was aware of the situation and would stand behind his employee. No excuse here either. An offer was made to cover the costs of the cleaning. It was suggested to us that we should accept the offer, otherwise he would change his mind. I hung up, we paid and left, deeply disgusted by the way this restaurant treats guests. The manager was too cowardly to come to the table and de-escalate, the waiter who said “puta” after us as we were leaving and a restaurant that seems to be doing too well for this behavior to be allowed. A clear disappointment for €130.

Delicious traditional ceviche and great pisco sour. Service is extremely attentive and accommodating. Love it.

It really was an experience both eating there and the atmosphere. I love being able to speak Spanish with the waiters. These helped us choose the right food The food is very delicious and fresh. The ceviche of three is exquisite. The portions are large. I couldn't eat it all. We had a very nice evening and drinking a very delicious pisco We will return

Although the dishes are not traditionally Peruvian (the presentation and side dishes), the food was good. The price is a bit high, considering the service (which could be better) and the limited menu.

The best Peruvian restaurant in Frankfurt 💯 the best Latin food 💯 excellent everything. Christian the bar tender rocker excellent service super 💯

Nice, not too big restaurant. Friendly and attentive service. Anyone who likes fish will be thrilled. But there are also dishes with meat, as well as vegetarian dishes. We were pleasantly surprised by the Peruvian cuisine, which was unknown to us. It's definitely worth trying out. The parking situation is, like everywhere else in the area, a disaster.

Probably the best Peruvian restaurant in Frankfurt. The Ceviche and Arroz de Mariscos were really amazing. The causa de pollo was incredible, one of the best I ever had. However, the Lomo Saltado was a bit underwhelming, and the Bola de Chocolate dessert looked better than it tasted (too sour and very little chocolate). Also overpriced. 8.50 for a bottle of water was a bit ridiculous. Expect to spend 80-90 euros per person.

I visit Peru regularly and therefore know the local food. And I can say that if you like Peruvian food, this is the right place for you. My Peruvian wife also gives full marks for the food. 👌🏼

amazing food, great drinks, and a super nice staff! thanks fo providing us with a great dinner

Food was really good, very tasty, and it did not take long to be served. Pisco sour was refreshing and "light". The price is more on the upper side (at least for the main dishes), but the food quality justifies.

Delicious Peruvian food... national dish cevice is also part of it... not cheap

This is my second visit, and all the food is delicious and the staff are friendly. I whetted my appetite with a refreshing pisco sour and finished the meal with Maracuya mousse. It was a truly satisfying meal. The total cost was about 145 euros, including two pisco sours, two glasses of wine, ceviche as an appetizer, two main dishes, and one dessert. Although the price is a bit high, I highly recommend this restaurant for its atmosphere, taste, and generous portions! All the most important thing! Wir fangen gerne mit Pisco Sour und Ceviche als Vorspeisen an. And dieses mal haben wir auch Maracuja Mousse mit Vanille Eis probiert und es war sehr erfrischend und lecker :)

Very good food but very expensive. And always full

The food is delicious and the portions are very generous.

The food was very tasty. The waiter's recommendations were also good. Unfortunately the heating wasn't on and all the guests were freezing.

Essen war gut, Preis-Leistung überhaupt nicht. 3 kleine Schälchen Cevice für 28,50 und ein Wasser für 8,50? Total überzogen. Service OK, allerdings in gebrochenem Deutsch und es war sehr kalt im Restaurant. Schade, leider nicht zu empfehlen.

Very interesting and original menu. Everything is very tasty.

We ate deliciously and received excellent service.

Very tasty. I advise you to try it. Truly authentic Chilean cuisine. I want to come back here. The waiter was very nice, the food was delicious!

Nous avons pris en plat principal le ceviche : bien généreux, bon , bien relevé. Un prix correcte 27.50€ Carte un peu élevé en prix mais la qualité se paye !

The food is great! It seems a little expensive to me, but I suppose it is because of the product imported from Peru. Still, I highly recommend it if you want to eat something quality in Frankfurt.

Overall too expensive for what is offered. The dessert (chocolate bomb), for example, is not worth €18 despite all the love.

Ceviche tastes 1 to 1 like in Peru, my Peruvian friend was also thrilled, TOP!!!

Very cozy family atmosphere in La Cevi, Pisco Sour very well mixed and the service very attentive and courteous. Lomo Saltato far exceeded my expectations!! That was a short trip to Peru!

Super leckeres Essen. Vorspeise, Hauptgericht und Dessert, dazu einen leckeren Wein. Yummy… und freundliche Bedienung… Alles top…

The dishes are very tasty and authentic. Fresh ingredients, everything very aromatic. Added to this is the very pleasant, relaxed atmosphere and the attentive, very friendly service. Thank you very much.

One of the best restaurants in Frankfurt!

Everything so delicious! The creamy seafood rice was absolutely amazing. The staff was very friendly and gave us some recommendations and one was the seafood rice, my favorite. Can't wait to come back :)

Realmente se sentía como un pedacito de Perú en una calle alemana. El servicio era excelente para decir al menos (los servidores eran muy amables, pacientes y están comprobando si todo está funcionando (es una pequeña ventaja si sabes español para una experiencia completa, pero hablan alemán, inglés y varios idiomas también)). Para la comida, yo como peruano, estaba muy contento con ella. Desde el plato fuerte, hasta el postre y las bebidas, no solo todo funcionaba sin problemas, sino que todo tenía la mezcla perfecta de sabores. El precio puede ser más alto para algunas personas, pero es, personalmente, de calidad en un plato. En resumen, no te pierdas este lugar, comer peruano es comer bien, solo ve y disfrútalo, porque personalmente, cuando regrese a Frankfurt, regresaré, con hambre.

Fantastic food, really a taste experience and really aesthetically presented! We loved it and will definitely come back.

Delicious food, a friendly atmosphere and you feel welcome to stay all evening. So why only 3 stars? Afterwards I noticed on the bill that instead of a 0.25 glass of cider, a 0.5 glass was charged. There was also a beer on our bill that neither of us had ordered. We didn't have to pay for the beer, but I didn't notice the mistake with the cider until later. Not a big problem since it was a small amount - I just see it as an additional tip. There was probably a mix-up at the tables. Next time I'll just pay a little more attention to the bill and maybe improve my rating here.

Extremely expensive for what it is! Definitely not worth the money. Would be ok if the prices would be 1/3 of what they are (and even then it wouldn't be anything amazing, just average). To top it all up, the waiters even ask expressly for a tip! I'm not coming back.

Extremadamente caro para lo que es! Definitivamente no vale la pena el dinero. Estaría bien si los precios serían 1/3 de lo que son (e incluso entonces no sería nada increíble, solo promedio). Para colmo, los camareros incluso piden expresamente una propina! No voy a volver.

Very tasty food, great ambience and clean toilets :)

Super tasty food, unfortunately the waitress hardly paid any attention to us. We couldn't even order a second drink.

A very cozy, stylish and well-equipped restaurant with a very tasty, varied cuisine! It was my first time there and I really enjoyed it. I just found the prices a bit too high. But I'll still come back.

It was far too cold in the restaurant and the food is far too expensive, starter plus main course 50 euros plus...

Unique in FFM, a special culinary experience!

La Cevi hats geschafft, der Laden brummt. Zu recht. Die Essensauswahl ist ungewöhnlich und köstlich, sehr schön angerichtet, alle Gänge. Die Bedinungen managen das Ganze ziemlich entspannt. 4 Personen, 300 Euro, waren aber schon aufgerufen. Wegen der Qualität haben wir das nicht bereut. Eine Empfehlung für den besonderen Anlass.

Ausgezeichnete Küche, aufmerksamer Service, schönes entspanntes Ambiente. Über das Preisniveau braucht man sich nicht aufregen, besondere Kulinarik hat (insbesondere in Frankfurt) eben ihren Markt und La Cevi hat uns einen solchen geboten. Mit 26 bis 33 Euro pro Hauptgang gab es sehr ordentliche Portionen mit raffinierten Verfeinerungen und wirklich tollem Geschmack. Der Service war überaus freundlich und stets sehr aufmerksam. Ich bin über die Entdeckung des Ladens sehr happy und werde definitiv wiederkommen. Wir haben uns das Trio de Ceviche sowie die moderne Interpretation der Conchitas a la Parmesana (exzellent!) als Vorspeise geteilt. Beim Hauptgang stach mein Aji de Gallina heraus. Weine waren ebenfalls gut genießbar, alles in allem ein Abend ohne Makel.

Great & authentic experience and short trip to Peru. Can highly recommend!!

We had an excellent evening. The food was wonderful! What should be highlighted is the warm service that gave us excellent advice. Thank you very much for the great evening!

Die Gerichte werden sehr schön und akkurat auf den Tellern angerichtet. Geschmacklich waren sowohl die Vorspeisen als auch die Hauptspeisen hervorragend. Das Restaurant ist sehr empfehlenswert. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.

The dishes are beautifully and accurately presented on the plates. Both the starters and the main courses tasted excellent. The restaurant is highly recommended. We will definitely come back.

Overall good, not quite authentic Peruvian cuisine as we know it. It's really experimental. In terms of taste, however, it is still missing to be exceptional. But perhaps there is still development here in the future. You can be excited. In any case, I would definitely come back. Service was extremely friendly, prices were slightly higher. Toilets could be cleaner. My tip as a dish: beef cheeks (H5).

The food was phenomenal But it's a bit uncomfortable, but that could be because we were sitting on the aisle, but everything was still good and very nice Food came very quickly

Good place to enjoy authentic peruvian/japanese cuisine. I really enjoyed the Ceviche Combos which were a bit expensive but at least generously stacked with a variety of fish. Regarding the service and experience I believe the restaurant to be overpriced though.

The food is great, and the portions are pretty generous. We always left feeling more than full!

At €23 for a vegetarian main course, you might expect that the oyster mushrooms wouldn't come from the freezer. They were extremely tough.

I have rarely eaten so well! Really everything was perfect. The service was also super nice and friendly. I would love to come back and can really recommend the restaurant to everyone!

Tolle Location, sehr freundliches Personal und wirklich sehr leckeres Essen alles frisch zubereitet, geschmacksintensiv, gut gewürzt, toll angerichtet und einen sehr guten Wein dazu genossen Wir kommen auf alle Fälle sehr gerne wieder vorbei.

Probably the best Peruvian restaurant in Frankfurt. Authentic Peruvian dishes with good size portions all freshly prepared. Served in a nice contemporary atmosphere with friendly service.

First time eating Peruvian and definitely not the last time. It was a really great evening, we ate really well and would love to come back ♥️

Wir waren extrem begeistert von der Aromatik der einzelnen Gerichte. Vorspeisen und Hauptgerichte waren sensationell und ausgewogen. Ebenfalls ein großes Lob für die total nette Bedienung. Wir haben uns richtig wohl gefühlt und kommen sicherlich wieder!!

The food here is good. I especially recommend the octopus starter. It is very fresh, and well seasoned with the sauce. The quinoa that comes with it is very creamy too. The rest of the food was not particularly special, though it was not bad either. For the price this place is a bit pricey. What was disappointing was the service, especially for a place that’s high class like here.

Es ist immer unfassbar wie lecker eure Gericht und wie gut eure Küche ist....immer wieder gerne zu jedem Anlass. Top-Adresse in Frankfurt.

Very good Peruvian food. Attentive service. Sat well attended

Wir fühlten uns wie in Lima. Schöne Location, super nette Bedienung und das Essen von sehr hoher Qualität. Sehr gern wieder.

The food is very good here, they have a variety of dishes and antipasti. I have eaten here several times and have always liked the food. On the other hand, the last time I went we were served by a new guy who I had not seen there before, and from the moment we walked in he had a rude and lame attitude. He took our orders, I really disliked this guy's attitude. On the other hand, the waitress was a sweetheart, as was Cristian, who was normally the one who served us there, but for some reason he wasn't there that day. In short, the food is very good🥘

As someone who has been to Peru and eaten the original dishes there, I can say that the food is delicious - as good as in Peru. but the prices are very expensive. I was there 3 days ago, the food was still tasty, but the prices on the menu were increased by 20% compared to 2 months ago. A main course shouldn't cost 35 euros. By the way, I highly recommend you try the Pisco Sour.

Fresh and tasty. Perfect balance of salty, sour and sweet. Really loved the experience: both the starters, ceviche and tartar tasted amazing. While the prices are not low, they are absolutely fair for the quality and portion size. Highly recommended for the summertime!

Great food and drinks! Among other things, we had the trio of ceviche. 😍

Best meal I’ve had in Germany. Ox cheek was amazing.

Sehr zu empfehlen! Sehr lecker, ganz besonders und ein sehr freundlicher Service! Vielen Dank. Wir hatten einen schönen Abend.

Overall it's really quite good! I can particularly recommend the Ceviche Trio as a starter and the Pulpo. The dessert bomb for €18 is surprisingly fresh, but unfortunately doesn't quite do justice to the price and description. It's really not cheap here, we left €140 for the two of us and that without any real drinks. I will still come again!

It was our first time here and we will definitely come back. The food was the best we've had in a long time. A so-called taste explosion. I didn't know Peruvian cuisine was so delicious. We definitely have to test the other dishes.

It wasn't enough for 5 stars - the food was good, but the prices are a bit too high in relation to the portion sizes and the ambience of the restaurant.

Nette Location. Authentisches Ambiente. Sehr gute Qualität des Essens. Bester Pisco saur ever ! Freundliche Bedienung.

A great restaurant with authentic cuisine. We were on vacation in Peru this summer and enjoyed the excellent local cuisine. We are all the more pleased that we have now found an alternative in Frankfurt. Highly recommended.

Absolutely great food...don't worry about the money...it's a bit expensive, but worth every cent...absolutely happy with the evening ❤️

All menu items are delicious! The seafood was so fresh and the meat was tender and delicious. Aside from the high prices, the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, is friendly, and is delicious.

Light summer dishes are available at La Cevi in ​​Frankfurt's Nordend 🌞 Günther and his friends made their way there and tried the map up and down for you. 😋 First of all there were homemade banana chips with a spicy chili sauce and freshly made pisco sours. As starters we had a colorful selection of dishes from Peruvian cuisine with a modern touch. The traditional ceviche with marinated fish with lime juice, coriander, chili and sweet potatoes was particularly delicious. And if you particularly like seafood, you should go one better and order the Mixto version straight away! In addition to the redfish, there is also seafood, pulp and cuttlefish. Just really delicious! 👌🏼 The chicken fricasses with mashed potatoes, avocado, a quail egg and spicy chili was also very popular that evening. The different flavors and textures made this dish a real experience. Günther's personal highlight, however, was the pulpo grilled in garlic butter with sweet potato mousse, quinoa pop and avocado cream. Just an absolute poem. Just like the cool dessert at the end: a colorful variation of flavors with a melting chocolate ball on top. Simply amazing! Be sure to stop by La Cevi and enjoy a wonderful summer dinner with friends or family. It is a total pleasure and an absolute recommendation from us. 👍🏼

Delicious food ,great service and verry coazy!

The food was great The service staff was friendly but overwhelmed and there was too long of a wait between the starter and the main course

Good peruvian food, and nice place with generally friendly staff. However the waiter pressured me to add a tip which I thought was unprofessional (I was going to tip anyway, don't think it's appropriate to outright ask). I found the prices to be higher than I thought the food and overall experience deserved.
