An incredible Peruvian food spot. Everything was delicious and the service was excellent. To start, the empanadas were delicious, and I highly recommend trying the ceviche, which is very fresh and delicious, with a flavor you'll really enjoy with the plantain chips.
A great place to hang out with your partner.

Food was amazing! The staff was great and gave us great recommendations. Wish we lived closer so we could try more items on the menu!
Lomo Libre Cantina offers a diverse menu with a focus on flavorful Peruvian cuisine. The Pisco cocktails are notably strong and well-prepared, setting a great tone for the meal. The Ceviche is fresh and flavorful, though it may be slightly spicy for some diners.
The Chupe De Marisco, rated at 8-10, presented a delicious taste but could benefit from more fish, broth, and creaminess. Similarly, the Arroz con Marisco earned an 8-10 rating; while the clams and scallops were ample and flavorful, the dish was somewhat lacking in shrimp, with only two pieces served.
Lomo Saltado was rated an overall 7-10. The sauce leaned towards a soy sauce flavor, missing the traditional aji panca, but the meat was cooked perfectly, and the rice was well-executed. Service was a highlight, characterized by excellent attentiveness and respect. Overall, Lomo Libre Cantina is a solid choice for a satisfying dining experience.

Walked in en route to an errand and ordered ceviche verde (green ceviche) to go. It was ready when I got back and oh my goodness did it exceed my expectations. Some of the best ceviche I’ve had!! The fish was so fresh and the leche de Tigre was so flavorful and the hominy and toasted goodies were a perfect addition. I was surprised it wasn’t served with chips, but that seems more a Central American take. Ceviche was born in Peru! Thousands of years ago (who knew)!

Great food and service! Had the ceviche, empanadas and stewed pork, thought all of it was great.
When these guys moved into our neighborhood and took over the location of Tres Underdogs I think many of us locals were thinking they were going to be similar to Underdogs. Immediately people were complaining about the prices being higher including me. What we failed to realize was this is not a taqueria/restaurant it's a nice Peruvian restaurant that just happens to also do burritos, quesadillas, burgers and fries but that's not the focus of the menu.
Once Casa Barajas closed down I had no option but to give Lomo a try again to get my burrito fix. What the heck was I waiting for! I've had burritos all over this city and I have to say this is one of the tastiest burritos I've ever had. Seriously, it's packed with flavor and meaty of your choice. So far the steak and carne asada burritos are fire. I love their Cali Sunset burrito. The quesadillas w/ your choice of meat are not a side dish or a sharing item that is flat and cut into multiple pieces. They are a fat sandwich! And again packed with flavor. Their burger is also top notch. Especially when you add the rosemary bacon.
I've been starting to frequent Lomo more to get my burrito or burger fix but realize this is not the focus of the menu and I'm excited to start trying out more items on the menu. The bar is a major upgrade from Underdogs with a great selection of quality booze and a fun cocktail menu.
If you think the place looks a pricey that's because it's worth it just like any good restaurant that you will pay a little more at. But in saying that, $16 for a burrito is normal price just about anywhere and same goes for $16 for an 8oz delicious burger. Not expensive and worth every penny.

One of the best restaurant meals I have ever had. Limited seating for larger groups, but six of us went during happy hour on a weekday and didn’t have to wait long. Everything we had was exceptional. Cocktails and dishes thoughtfully prepared and tasty. We loved it.

Recently had lunch at Lomo Libre and I was unexpectedly blown away. The staff and food were on point. It’s really hard to find good Peruvian in San Francisco but Loba Libra hits the mark. I had a queso Loma and it was stacked and filling.
I wish it was closer to the mission but it’s damn worth the journey over!
