Limon Redwood City – Vibrant Peruvian Cuisine with Great Ambiance & Cocktails

I've been to other Limon locations in San Francisco and was not impressed. The Redwood City Limon was very good! The ambiance and decor were so nice. San Francisco needs to remodel their locations. The food was delicious and was served hot. The drinks were strong. I'll definitely go back soon. Did I mention there is public parking a block away. Your welcome!

Here is a full June 2025 breakdown, unbiased and not associated with restaurant or employees, but doing reviews of most of the RWC restaurants over the next year. Reservations: easy, on Resie, 7pm on a Saturday, at a table, made 1 hour prior Greeting: prompt and polite and immediately looked at tables available for seating Bar: L shaped, multiple TVs with sports but no volume that would be disturbing, extensive spirits and beer selection Ambiance: good lighting, music not too loud, great vibe, upbeat but not obnoxious atmosphere Wait staff: attentive, not overly chatty, pleasant, a 2nd wait staff member came to our table and took our drink order because our server was tied up with a very large table Temperature: comfortable, doors open, warm Seating comfort: very, soft seats, not grammar school chairs Noise: appropriate for the atmosphere Clientele: mixed crowd, casual, but not sloppy and also some people were business casual dressy Drinks: good flavor, light on the alcohol but what you get when you try speciality drinks at restaurants. If you want strong, stick with your Manhattan up, vodka/gin martini, etc. Extensive wine and cocktail menu selection Appetizers: great selection, had the tuna tartare, with seaweed, radishes, mini red peppers, edamame, unagi. Very tasty, great portion size for price Main dishes: flat iron steak - medium rare, cooked perfect, not overly seasoned, just the way a steak should be, potatoes and vegetables accompanying were proportional and tasty. Saltato vegetarian - wok stir-fried seasonal vegetables, ginger-infused soy sauce, french fries, and jasmine rice was very tasty and veggies were crisp. Value for the price: equivocal. Cost was what I expected for 4 drinks, a raw seafood appetizer and two entrees. Claudia and Selvin of the wait staff were very attentive, super professional and personable! Recommend: yes

Did I visit this restaurant twice in one day? Yes I did!! Came here for a holiday lunch on a Friday and then later when my friends were looking for somewhere to meet for happy hour, I suggested this place. Can't get enough! Fabulous cocktails and mocktails and of course the food is amazing. The only thing I didn't care for was the pork belly. Everything else was lovely, especially the paella. Great addition to the Redwood City food scene!

I had lunch here for the first time and was truly impressed. The interior is beautifully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The service was excellent—attentive and friendly. And the food? Absolutely amazing! Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared. For vegetarians - Flor Del Huerto is a must have. Plenty of options for non-vegetarians and they have a separate drink menu too. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Limon is more that their famous rotisserie chicken. Some of the dishes we tried is their crispy pork belly which is heavenly with the fried rice that came with it. The steak is a large portion with plenty of sides to choose from. We got plantains, cauliflower and tuna tartare for apps. The plantain is kinda plain, but the cauliflower is worth the try. The tuna tartare is fresh and makes a good combination with the crisp taro chips that came with it. We had a beef and seafood dish and they are equally tasty in their own right. Everything that we ordered is to be honest really good sonypu cant really go wrong with what you're going to order here. Parking is a bit tough as in any downtown. This is a good place for meetings, friends meet up or even a follow up a date. Highly recommended.

Beautiful new spot in Redwood City! The ambiance is a touch of elegance. Our server was amazing super friendly, attentive, and he knew the menu inside out. We had the tuna tartare, meat rolls, ribeye (perfectly medium rare), seafood rice (arroz con mariscos), and the most incredible tres leches for dessert. Everything was flavorful and well presented. Perfect place for a night out with friends or a special celebration. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back!
