Le Coq
Lima's top pick for world cuisines, in a French bistro.
- Address: Av. Santa Cruz 828, Miraflores, Lima
- District: Lima
- Cuisine: International / world cuisine
Le Coq is a French bistro in Miraflores led by chef Coque Ossio, a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America who trained under Eric Ripert and Jean-Georges Vongerichten. The name plays on the French rooster, the chef's own nickname and his mother's love of hens, and the restaurant is meant to evoke generosity and the good life: classic technique, generous plates and a lively table. The menu follows the French bistro tradition, with dishes such as gougères de Gruyère, escargots and magret de canard à l'orange. It is a pleasant way to add a French evening to a trip centered on Peruvian food, and a good setting for a long dinner with wine. Le Coq was named Best World Cuisine (Mejor Cocina del Mundo) at the Premios Summum 2025 and won the World Cuisines category again at the Premios Summum 2026. It is located on Avenida Santa Cruz in Miraflores, and it is a good idea to confirm hours and reserve ahead for dinner.
