Celeste is a restaurant known for its delicious ceviche and intimate atmosphere. The seafood-focused menu features standout dishes like scallops, steak, and the highly praised lomo saltado. The blue cod ceviche and papua with pickled cabbage and prawn are particularly popular, while the Causa Limeña closely resembles the original. Diners can also enjoy Peruvian drinks and desserts, such as the Suspiro Limeño and Lúcuma Mousse, which are absolutely fabulous.
The open kitchen adds to the cozy and lively ambiance, where the kitchen staff work together seamlessly to provide a brisk pace for diners. The restaurant's cocktails, including Pisco drinks and a ginger beer cocktail, are made to order and presented beautifully. A selection of white wines is available for tasting, and the evening often ends with a complimentary shot of pisco from Peru.
Diners can expect excellent food and service, whether sitting at a table or at the bar. With its small size and popular reputation, it is recommended to make a reservation or be prepared to wait. Overall, Celeste is a must-try cornerstone restaurant of Union, providing a memorable dining experience worth returning for again and again.
