She said it is 100% Authentic in presentation and flavor. I love it. Everything I've tried has been great. The servers don't speak much English but it's easy to express what you want. And the menu is in Spanish but if you scan a QR code you can see an English translation. We always end up getting the Lomos Saltado. If you like Real Latino food in this case Peruvian, you Must come here. You won't regret it. Delicious food. We moved to Lwxington from Los Angeles and this is better than any Peruvian food we've had there and Los Angeles knows Latin food.

My husband and I came here for a lunch date and were greeted and seated quickly. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to find a Peruvian restaurant in Lexington since I'm a big fan of this cuisine. We ordered the 1/2 pollo a la brasa (which comes with a salad), ceviche mixto, and one chicha morada. The food arrived in a reasonable time, and everything was absolutely delicious. However, the biggest downside was the number of flies and gnats in the dining area, which made the experience less enjoyable. It's a shame this restaurant isn't in a better location because the food is fantastic. If it were in a more visible spot, I'm sure it would be packed. Unfortunately, being tucked away in a small plaza makes it easy to miss. While I wouldn't dine in again due to the bugs, I'd definitely return for a takeout order!

Sometimes, while visiting towns, you have to ask a local where to eat. Some suggestions work out,…read moreand others don't. Well, my buddy, Karl, had a pretty good suggestion for a recent trip to Louisville. My wife and I stopped by Yummy Polo to give it a try. Yummy Polo is a Peruvian-style charcoal-fired rotisserie chicken, slowly char-broiled and paired with southern-style mouthwatering sides--big flavors, big servings, designed to hit anyone's spot. I had the Half dark chicken with cilantro rice and chickpeas. The rice was cooked well, buttery, and had a hint of salt. I wasn't getting much cilantro flavor, but it was still tasty. The chickpeas were tender but still had a nice chew to them; the sauce they were cooked in had some subtle heat on the back end, and the dish needed a little salt. The chicken was very tender and juicy, and it was a good-sized portion. The skin was the star of the show; it was crispy and popped from the salt and spices. My wife and I both agreed that we could eat just a plate of the skin by itself. My wife tried the Half white chicken with chicken fried rice and green beans. The rice was cooked well and had a good flavor, but this dish tasted as if it had been sitting out for a while. The green beans were cooked perfectly, neither mushy nor overcooked, and they had a mild yet pleasant flavor, with a hint of sweetness on the finish, which was unexpected but not unwelcome. The chicken is where it was--tender, salty, juicy, and packed with flavor. Again, the skin was the star of the show and the money. Each dish was served with a green sauce and a mayo sauce. The green sauce was likely cilantro-based, adding a hint of heat to the dish, while the mayo sauce was creamy and sweet. The real trick was to mix them, which offered the best of both worlds and made a fantastic bite. The flavors, juiciness of the chicken, the crunch of the skin, and those sauces, that is the stuff dreams are made of. Yummy Polo offers their chickens in quarter, half, or whole portions. They have several sides, most of which are in a southern style. They offer a selection of desserts and various bread options. The restaurant is small; if there is a line, it's worth the wait. They also offer several varieties of soda and teas from a cooler or a Pepsi fountain machine. The Fat Man says that Yummy Polo is Fat Man Approved with 2 chins.

We enjoyed opening night for the Mamma Mia dinner and a movie event held in July 2026. The dinner…read moreconsisted of 5 themed courses to accompany the show, and the food was delicious and presented well. Favorite course was the grilled shrimp followed by the lamb chop. Table conversations and singing were expected during the show and added to the festive atmosphere, but the noise level was oftentimes at a moderate level which impacted our enjoyment at times. It also coincided with the 3rd to 4th glass of paired wine with the courses, so we weren't all that surprised. Haha! An opening cocktail or two and 5 glasses of wine (estimated 4 to 6 ounces) over an approximate 2 to 3-hour period lends itself to a raucous evening. I opted prior to the dinner to skip the wine pairings and was supposed to have my bill adjusted by $20 less, but noticed when I got home that this didn't happen. A 20% gratuity is also automatically added to each bill. Looking forward to September's dinner and a movie, Birdcage! Scheduled over 5 nights, 9/11 to 9/15. Photos attached with menu and contact info for reservations, although we've found it's easier to visit in person to achieve a much faster response (Friday and Saturday already sold out!) We were also told that this might be the final dinner and a movie since the very talented event coordinator is departing soon. We are hopeful she will return to manage the events or that someone else will pick up the baton and continue on with such a wonderful experience.
