The Huacachina of Somerset! This is a fantastic Peruvian oasis in the heart of Kentucky with authentic Peruvian flavors and service. Jeferson is a wonderful host and shows so much passion with how he operates the restaurant. The rotisserie chicken is wonderful to Peruvian standards and the accompanying sauces are also tremendous and take me back to when I lived in Peru. Try the papas fritas and the Peruvian fried rice as sides. Go Jeferson, go! read more

Phenomenal experience! For the uninitiated, Peruvian cuisine has some immigrant elements - and our fried rice with some of the best we have ever had at any kind of restaurant! As was the hotdog and french fry dish! The chicken had an incredible flavor. Jeferson was an amazing server and took the time to educate us and make sure we were taken care of. read more

If you haven't tried this place rotisserie chicken you need to! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great! The waiter's name was Jefferson, I think, great service we I will definitely be back. It is located in the TradeWind Center (where Rose's ) is in Somerset, KY right off of US HWY 27. The place is quiet and does have a Peruvian feel to it if you're into Peruvian and Latin American culture. The place was clean, and it was empty when we arrived, though a few tables came in shortly after we go there, Over all the food was very good, the wait time was little and staff was ultra friendly . We will definitely visit again. read more

The Peruvian chicken was the star--super juicy with bold seasoning. The fried rice was flavorful and the sweet plantains added a delicious caramelized sweetness. Great combination and definitely worth ordering again. Plus amazing service!! read more

I must give them a five. The food and the service are both above par. The cost is average for the type of food, and the ambience/décor is lovely. Their rotisserie chicken is divine! Tender and flavorful, the seasoning is something you will not find anywhere else in Somerset. I am not a big fan of rice, but I will eat their fried rice anytime. , Special mentions: ANTICUCHOS - diced cow's heart, tender and tasty. We tried it on a whim and were pleasantly surprised at the flavor and tenderness of the meat. YUCA FRITA - Every time I have eaten the fried cassava, it has been prepared perfectly! Crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Finally, I must mention the dessert. I always order flan. On my first visit, Jefferson convinced me to try the Tres Leches Cake (I have never been a fan). He promised me I would love it. He was correct, absolutely! The staff makes dining, whether alone or with friends, comfortable and very pleasant. Please stop in, give them a try, again and again! read more

Fabulous lunch! Great food - we had the chicken quarter, a steak dish, and three different sides - all delicious, beautifully served, with generous portions. Jeff was our excellent server who made great suggestions without being pushy. The dining room was very attractive and comfortable. If you live or are traveling anywhere in or near Somerset, make a point to get a meal here. No matter if you're Peruvian yourself or have never eaten anything but KFC I'm sure you'll find something delicious on the menu. read more

Couldn't recommend this place enough!! The food is incredible, there is something for everyone and the taste is very aromatic and refreshing while still hearty and filling. The staff was so friendly and make you feel like family the moment you sit down. The table we sat at had crayons and each table has parchment paper so you can draw while you wait. My boyfriend drew a cross and bible verse, and Jefferson (the owners son) even offered to pray with us the next time we visited before we eat:) (we ended up praying anyways!!) Our waitress was phenomenal and so kind and attentive, but not overbearing. They will gladly answer any questions about the food, culture, and other aspect of the restaurant. Again, the food was just so delicious. Couldn't recommend somewhere more to fill your belly, heart, and spirit!! read more

This is easily one of the best restaurants in town! The food is marvelous and the staff is extremely friendly and attentive. I recommend this place to anyone looking for 10/10 food and service! read more

GO! First off Jefferson and the young lady that waited on my wife and I were excellent and friendly. The chicken is so delicious, its rotisserie but is just different in a next 2 levels kind of way. The Peruvian fried rice is worth the trip, and it's a side people! Just go and dine on something new, you will enjoy it. read more

Tasty Peru has become one of our favorite restaurants in Somerset. The food is delicious and the service is always incredible! Jeferson is so friendly and is always offering good menu suggestions or sharing interesting info about his Peruvian culture. The other servers are so kind as well! The rotisserie chicken is flavorful and moist and well-priced. The fried rice is insanely flavorful and delicious and a great side dish to the chicken. Don't forget the sauces!! Green, yellow, red, or white, you can't go wrong with any of them as they boost any dish with great flavor. The Lomo Saltado is a tender steak dish with onions and tomatoes and has the most vibrant flavor and is definitely a favorite! Besides the amazing food and service, the restaurant is family-friendly and offers clean linen-covered tables with white paper on top and they provide a cup of crayons that help keep the kids(and adults!) entertained as they can draw on the table. Such a fun addition to the experience and helps us parents not feel so guilty for the messy eaters! Overall, I highly recommend Tasty Peru and am so grateful to have a local, family-owned Peruvian restaurant in the heart of Somerset. read more

The food was excellent. We got our order to go due to having had an exhausting day. Everything we ordered was delicious! The only time I didn't really care for about their restaurant was how open front it was. When sitting down to eat a meal other than fast food I prefer a little bit of privacy. I would have liked the location great with shades or tiny over the windows. But that's just me. Food, definitely will go back for carry out! read more

This restaurant was a let down. We didn't get our drinks until after we finished our food. The service was stretched thin with only one person servicing the whole restaurant. The man managing the front was unprofessional for demanding we pick a tip amount that he picked. He also did not give a copy of the receipt of what payed. I do not recommend. read more
