La Mar Cebichería Madrid | Peruvian Ceviches in the Heart of the Capital

La Mar by Gastón Acurio

La Mar Cebichería in Madrid is more than a restaurant: it is an embassy of Peruvian flavor. Founded by the iconic chef Gastón Acurio, this contemporary cebichería has won over Madrid palates with its fresh, authentic dishes full of identity. Located in the modern district of Chamartín, La Mar is the place where you can taste Peru with elegance and joy.

A corner of modern Peru in Chamartín

Since it arrived in Madrid, La Mar has never stopped making news. With a sober but fresh aesthetic, fine materials, natural light and an open kitchen that invites interaction, the restaurant embodies the philosophy of contemporary Peruvian cooking: respect for ingredients, reinvented tradition and plenty of joy on the plate.

The experience begins with the team's welcome; they know every ingredient well and guide you through the menu. At the heart of the menu: ceviche, the gem that mixes fresh fish, citrus, chili peppers and creativity.

A tribute to Peruvian ceviche at La Mar Cebichería Madrid

Ceviche is not just a dish: for any Peruvian it is a statement of identity. At La Mar, this classic comes in several versions:

  • Classic corvina ceviche: lime juice, red onion, sweet potato and choclo.
  • Nikkei ceviche: with bluefin tuna, soy sauce and touches of sesame.
  • Mixed ceviche: seafood and fish with an intense leche de tigre.

Every bite takes diners to the shores of the Pacific, to the markets of Lima, to the celebrations where ceviche is the soul of midday. Here, the produce is king, and its freshness is unquestionable.

Beyond ceviche: a menu to explore

Although ceviche is the star, La Mar offers a diverse menu that pays tribute to Creole, chifa and Nikkei cooking. Among the must-tries:

  • Causa limeña with crab
  • Beef heart anticuchos
  • Ají amarillo tiradito
  • Northern-style arroz con mariscos (seafood rice)
  • Ají de gallina with white rice and hard-boiled egg

The desserts are just as Peruvian, with contemporary twists: suspiro limeño, crema volteada, artisanal chocotejas and lúcuma ice cream.

A complete experience: atmosphere, cocktails and hospitality

The design of La Mar Madrid was conceived to honor the sea and freshness. Blue tones, wooden details, handmade ceramics and indoor plants create a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere, ideal for both casual lunches and elegant dinners.

The cocktail bar is another big attraction: classic pisco sour, passion fruit chilcano, cocktails with Andean infusions or alcohol-free options such as chicha morada with cinnamon and cloves.

Peruvian hospitality can be felt in every corner. The staff are trained not only to serve but to tell stories: about ají limo, the origin of pisco, or how tiradito was born on the Peruvian coast.

About Gastón Acurio and his culinary legacy

Talking about La Mar also means talking about Gastón Acurio, Peru's most influential chef. His mission has been to take Peruvian cuisine to the world, valuing local producers, promoting the country's biodiversity and training new generations of cooks.

La Mar in Madrid is part of this vision. It is not a copy of his restaurants in Lima or Miami, but a reinterpretation adapted to the Spanish context, without losing its soul or its seasoning. Acurio has managed to make the sea, history and, above all, love for Peruvian culture felt in every dish.
