Tio Lucho’s

Is Tio Lucho’s the best Peruvian restaurant in Atlanta? If you ask folks in Poncey Highland, the answer is YES. A newly established restaurant that’s already making its presence felt in this classic ATL community, Tio Lucho’s was named in honor of chef Arnaldo Castillo’s father who passed away shortly before the restaurant opened. Chef Castillo knew the best way to honor his father’s memory was to open the restaurant and press forward – and he hasn’t looked back since. With incredibly made Peruvian favorites like Lomo Saltado, Ceviche, Causas rellenas, and Tuna Tiradito, Tio Lucho’s is set to remain a Poncey Highland favorite for years to come. See why in our special look at Tio Lucho’s!

Highlights

Ceviche

The Peruvian classic, you can get it a couple of different ways at Tio Lucho’s, but it’s always meant to be shared!

Tuna Tiradito

With incredibly fresh tuna soaked in delicious leche de tigre, the tuna tiradito is a hit at every table.

Lomo Saltado

Peruvian food is heavily influenced by Asian cultures, which is what you get with the wok-fried lomo salatado, a hearty beef dish that’s perfect for dinner.

Causa

A bit of art on the plate – whipped yukon potatoes, garlic, cherry tomatoes, avocado and radish – top it with crab, market veggies, or tuna.
