La Picanteria del Mar

It sits at Rivera del Mar 164 on the Pimentel seafront, fifteen minutes from Chiclayo and steps from the pier: a room with open-air tables and the sea view as its main argument, the thing reviewers mention most after the fish. The cooking is northern and coastal; among the dishes Google flags as popular are the chita ceviche and the corn fritters, and diners add the jalea and the grilled fish platter. Our read: this is a seaside-resort cevichería rather than a city one, so it works as a whole-day plan — you arrive, you eat a long lunch with the view, you go back; the hours confirm it, closing at five with no dinner service. It closes Mondays and runs 11:00 to 17:00 the rest of the week; it has a bar, allows dogs inside and out, and parking is street-only. The entry records a nomination for the 2026 Premios Somos in the Lambayeque Region category. Curation note: the Google listing publishes no website, so the phone number and hours come from there; the restaurant is in Pimentel, not central Chiclayo, even though the entry files it under that locality.
