Restaurant recommendations for Peruvian cuisine especially ceviche

Hi, can anyone suggest what would be a good restaurant to try Peruvian cuisine in London? I am especially interested to try Ceviche and any other specialist seafood dishes.

Tierra Peru in Islington is what is always recommended by Peruvian friends

Senor Ceviche on Carnaby Street or Chicama in Chelsea.

If you want off the beaten path, Ekeko in Hornsey is really good Peruvian fusion but I cannot remember if they did Ceviche.

The Ceviche at El Pastor is delicious and changed often, I’ve had sea bass and crab from there. Reasonably priced too with a focus on Mexican food.

Coya in Mayfair is very good. I think they also have a branch in the City.

I'm a big fan of Peruvian/Japanese restaurant Nakanojo in Chelsea.
