Photo of Tiradito, a Restaurant in Downtown

Tiradito is a Peruvian-Japanese Nikkei bar that’s made waves with its lively vibe and unforgettable menu. The brainchild of David Schmidt, Marcel Olivier Larrea, David Dumay, and Sébastien Jacques, Tiradito centres on a 60-seat bar where guests can watch every culinary move, turning dining into a performance.

The design—crafted by Schmidt—pairs turquoise accents with warm wood beams and lush greenery, giving the space an inviting, laid-back feel. Chef Larrea’s menu is a colourful, spicy Nikkei fusion of Peruvian and Japanese traditions, featuring shareable plates like pescado, verduras, and carne. Cocktails like the Chilcano and Pisco Sour bring fresh Peruvian flair to the bar, alongside local beers and a smart wine selection.
