The guacamole 🥑 was amazing with the chips.
Ribeye steak 🥩 was a great pairing with the pasta.
Amazonian ice cream 🍨 was delicious.
and a shot of espresso to finish was a very good combination of everything.
Service was wonderful.

Poor experience overall. The only highlights were the cocktails - very pleased with Pisco Sours but aside from that food is not worth a second visit.

Kayao Restaurant offers a unique dining experience combining Peruvian, Japanese, and Chinese influences. The food is exceptional, with dishes such as short rib, chaufa with smoked duck, and tuna tiradito receiving high praise. Piscos sours are very tasty, and the sushi roll and ceviche were all so good. The short rib melts in your mouth. The service is outstanding, with knowledgeable staff happy to explain the food and make recommendations. The restaurant itself is super cute with both a great indoor and outdoor vibe. The ambiance is exquisite, making it a great choice for a night out.
