COYA

Nestled in the chic heart of Mayfair at 118 Piccadilly, COYA London pulses as a vibrant celebration of Peruvian culture, blending Nikkei and Latin American cuisines with an infectious party spirit in a colorful, art-filled haven. Since its 2012 debut, this culinary gem—open Monday-Saturday from 12pm to 12am (Sundays until 10:30pm)—has drawn London’s stylish set for lively lunches, intimate dinners, and late-night pisco-fueled revelry, making it a standout in the city’s upscale dining scene.

Step into COYA, and the interiors transport you with bohemian flair—vibrant Inca-inspired murals, handwoven textiles, and lush greenery create a festive, welcoming vibe seating around 150 across the main restaurant, a buzzing Pisco Bar, and a members-only lounge. The open ceviche counter adds theatrical energy, while a petite outdoor terrace offers al fresco charm overlooking Green Park’s leafy edge. As evening unfolds, the atmosphere ignites with live Latin bands, resident DJs spinning salsa and house, and themed nights like Pisco Sour masterclasses, drawing a cosmopolitan crowd into a whirlwind of clinking glasses and rhythmic laughter. The vibe is lively yet sophisticated, perfect for a business lunch, romantic date, or group fiesta that spills into dancing.

The menu showcases Peruvian staples with Nikkei and Chifa influences, emphasizing shareable plates of fresh seafood and bold flavors, paired with an extensive pisco selection and cocktails like the signature COYA Pisco Sour (£16)—a frothy blend of pisco, lime, and egg white for a tangy, silky kick. Start with the Ceviche de Lubina (£18), sea bass marinated in tiger’s milk with sweet potato and red onion, offering a zesty, oceanic burst. The Guacamole COYA (£14) arrives creamy with corn chips and aji amarillo for a spicy, vibrant dip.

Seafood shines with the Tiradito de Hamachi (£20), yellowtail slices drizzled with yuzu-soy and chili—a delicate, umami-rich opener. Anticuchos steal the show with the Pollo a la Parrilla (£16), grilled chicken skewers with aji panca marinade, tender and smoky. Mains include the Arroz Nikkei (£28), saffron rice stir-fried with prawns, squid, and chili paste for a bold, Chifa-inspired medley. The Lomo de Res (£32) grills wagyu sirloin with chimichurri and roasted peppers, juicy and herbaceous. For seafood lovers, the Lubina Chilena (£30) roasts sea bass with aji amarillo and cilantro, flaky and aromatic. Vegetarians savor the Coliflor Asada (£16), roasted cauliflower with huacatay sauce and pomegranate for a nutty, tangy bite. Sides like Papas Fritas con Huancaína (£8) add crispy, creamy balance.

Desserts deliver a playful close with the Churros de Naranja (£12), crisp doughnuts with orange-infused chocolate sauce—a warm, citrusy treat—or the Lucuma Mousse (£10), silky Andean fruit cream with mango sorbet for a light, tropical finish.
