About the Celeste
Celeste is a unique food institution located at 21 Bow Street in Somerville, Massachusetts. It is a joint project between friends who are passionate about creating a one-of-a-kind experience that combines delicious food, perfect drinks, and a vibrant environment that celebrates design, art, and music. The menu features ancient Peruvian recipes passed down through generations, showcasing the rich culture through its flavors.
The institution offers late-afternoon aperitivos, dinner with daily specials, a late-night menu, and a full bar focused on pisco, mezcal, and local craft beers that pair perfectly with the food. Collaborating with artists and musicians, Celeste has created an audiovisual guide to Peruvian and Andean culture, including music, art, and flavors.
Chef Calderón, who grew up learning cooking methods from his mother and grandmother in Peru, prepares complex yet hearty home-cooked meals with love. The menu includes Peruvian staples such as ceviche, slow-cooked stews, causas, salads, and daily specials. Only fresh ingredients are used, resulting in new and classic dishes published on the menu daily.
Juanma Calderón, a filmmaker and chef, and María Rondeau, an architect and general director, are the creative minds behind Celeste. They have successfully run Kriollo Real, a closed-door restaurant at their home, since 2013, and have now expanded to a full-fledged restaurant to serve the public. Celeste is a place where unique spaces for events and gatherings are hosted, bringing their experiences from home and travels to the local community.

Reviews of Celeste
"My boyfriend and I were celebrating and we’re gonna go to another restaurant in Union square. We walked by Celeste, and decided to check it out. The food, atmosphere, and service were all 10/10!! I’ve never tasted something quite like that. I had the risotto and he had the pork stew. I think the star was the fish ceviche. All amazing!! A hidden gem in union!"
"It’s a tiny place with limited seating, so ensure to make reservations in advance. We went for our anniversary dinner. Menu was limited but good. We ordered fried yucca, tuna tartare and steamed fish. Fried yucca and tuna tartare were interesting flavors. Steamed fish was enough for 2 people with extra order of rice. It was cold inside since the doors kept opening hence 4 stars."
"The food here is very good, but the service and professionalism needs a little improving. We had a 7pm reservation and weren’t seated until 7:45pm, however the waiter did comp our appetizer which was appreciated. We ordered the mixed seafood ceviche, scallops, and seafood risotto. Our favorite was the scallops and the pisco sour cocktails (10/10!). Unfortunately, we found that overall this restaurant isn’t worth the trek from Boston."
"UPs- Wide variety of innovative fusion taste. Fun atmosphere. Friendly service. DOWNs- the $$$ are not quite matched by the rather ordinary ingredients, picnic-style patio tables and dish-wares. OVERALL- must warn you most dishes here have powerful spicy bite, not what one would typically except from Peruvian dishes. I enjoyed what I had & will try more next time."
