Llama San

A Peruvian izakaya tucked away in Greenwich, from chef Erik Ramirez of acclaimed Williamsburg restaurant Llama Inn.

Acknowledged Brooklyn Chef Erik Ramirez shares his sophisticated interpretation of Nikkei cuisine, drawing inspiration from the evolution of Peruvian and Japanese cuisine around the world. Among Peruvian art and light wood fixtures that call back to Japan’s minimalist aesthetic, Ramirez (who was formerly at Nuela, Raymi, and Eleven Madison Park) looks to his Japanese grandmother to explore the influence of Nippon culture on his Andean homeland. Expect dishes like Wagyu chuck flap with matsuri rice tamal and "sushi" made with Peruvian whipped potatoes and charred octopus.
