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...
Location is hidden in a business complex but this gem of a restaurant is worth it! The beef empanadas are stuffed with beef and the flaky pastry is perfectly Peruvian. Keep that spicy green sauce from the bread to dip everything in. The smoky fried rice was hot and flavorful beef was thinly sliced but unfortunately tough. The Chicken Vegetable Soltado was a perfect stirfry and the cilantro rice upgrade was delicious. Service was friendly and quick. We would recommend this place for anyone missing Peru and all it's world charm.
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.
The food is super good specially the green rice I love it, everything here is good and I would give them 5 stars but the only thing is that if you go during lunch time weekdays it will take forever to get your food, we wait for 45 min to get our food and I am glad it was good so that makes it a little bit better, otherwise service is good and waiters are good too. I will definitely go there again and keep trying more and more dishes

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.
Found this place on the fly, while in Irvine and not disappointed! In a hidden location, with a cool outdoor vibe, we enjoyed a passionate fruit drink (Maracuya), the holiday-Esque Chicha Morada drink, and some bomb empanadas. Then we moved on to our delicious main dishes, Arroz con pollo and Lomo soltado. All filled with flan and bread pudding. We definitely come back!
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.
