Mildly disappointing starting with the fact that their food does not deliver great Peruvian fare, or for that matter, sizable amounts. The items ordered: Parihuela (Seafood soup), $20+? This one had an acceptable broth, but the other ingredients barely made the cut. Diced potatoes in this dish discredit the whole concept of the dish, an addition apparently intended to give more substance to an otherwise modest selection of ingredients. Calamari rings, which arrive prepackaged and are used just about in every Peruvian restaurant, were tasteless and chewy. As a whole this Parihuela was plain average. 3 Stars. Peruvian Paella, $20? First Paella is from Spain, a very delicate and long cooking pr...

We began with the Parihuela (Seafood Soup) priced at over $20. The broth was decent, but the other ingredients were lacking. The diced potatoes felt more like a filler than a genuine addition, which detracted from the dish’s overall concept. The calamari rings seemed prepackaged and typical of many Peruvian restaurants, coming off bland and chewy. Overall, the Parihuela was average, earning 3 stars. Next, we tried the Peruvian Paella for $20. Traditional paella, originating from Spain, involves a careful, time-consuming preparation with saffron and authentic components. This green variation would likely disappoint true paella fans, as rice dominated around 85% of the plate, with peas and ca...
My friends recommended Inka's as the best spot for Peruvian food nearby. While we enjoyed our meal, it didn’t quite live up to the hype. The spinach empanadas were flavorful, but they were fried instead of baked like we’ve had elsewhere—maybe that’s the traditional Peruvian style. The service was good, and we liked being able to dine outside on a pleasant day. The restaurant is located in a business complex, which made it a little difficult to find.
Inka's is a real hidden treasure. I probably wouldn’t have discovered it without Google Maps since it’s located in an office park. When I showed up for dinner, the parking lot was mostly empty. The food was tasty and authentic. A quick tip: you have to ask for the cancha, as it’s not brought out by default. Besides that, the service was outstanding. They also offer outdoor seating.

Skimping on the salad. No onions, tomatoes and lack of dressing. Short on the bread and butter. Male server was busy chatting with the waitress. Didnt even come back for refillsof driinks. Three servers and 26 people. Bad SERVICE OVERALL. Tho owner needs to work nights to watch her business or it could decline. I've been coming here for years and it might be our last visit
My co-workers and I love this place for its quaint but classy dining patio and Peruvian comfort food. My favorite dish is the basic shrimp scampi, mild. The ceviche and empenadas are wonderful as well.Food: 4/5
I thought the Peruvian restaurant was the best place ever and I loved my meal that came with rice, chicken, and scrambled eggs from last night. I can cross Inkas off my bucket list.
The Boulibase stew was incredible! My colleague had the minestrone, which was fantastic—the use of peas instead of tomatoes added a unique and amazing twist. Book a table now
Super good food. They should make the logo lighter. Hard to find the place after getting dark.Food: 5/5
