Venture into the relaxed ambiance of Amazonia, our inviting upstairs bar, dining room and rooftop hideaway. As one of the first Amazonian restaurants in the U.S., discover the exotic flavors and ingredients from Peru's rainforest, as well as favorite Peruvian staples. Here you can explore a thoughtfully curated selection of pisco and imaginative cocktails. The dishes you'll enjoy in Amazonia are meant for sharing, and are expertly prepared by the very same skilled kitchen team from Causa downstairs.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Carlos Delgado

From the OpenTable editors: Tropical vibes reign supreme at award-winning Causa’s colourful sibling restaurant and lounge. Dig into a Peruvian menu of anticuchos (grilled meat skewers), elegant seafood-forward dishes, and top-notch cocktails in the energetic, plant-strewn dining room or on the shady rooftop patio with stunning Shaw views.

    The mahi mahi ceviche and Peruvian guac were great as shared starters. The pulpo al josper, lomo soltado, arroz con erizos chiclayana, and chaufa putumayo were amazing, and the pisco sours are perfection!

    Our waiter DaVinci was great and explained all of meals and drinks in detail. The food was sooooo good. It was pricey but nice for sharable and a date night with friends. Everything was special!
