One of my parents' favorite places, partially because it's on the Key (no need to venture out to the real world) and they can take their gypsy-eyed long-haired dachsund Sol (nicknamed "road kill" by my niece, since she sleeps w/her feet out, plastered to the ground). So we made them leave Sol at home and brought Mapuche the sloth puppy, who either terrorized or melted the hearts of their loyal patrons. Getting back to important things: tiradito - five stars, weird avocado crab meat dish - one star, according to Mr LaLotto and Piggypoo: ceviche and other fish dishes - five stars. Rather pricey, but other than that a good choice for those who don't want to venture out of Key Biscayne. read more

Tried it last night. I love seafood and the Peruvian cuisine cannot do it any better. The papa a la Huancaina - potatoes in a cheesy sauce - was delicious! The "aji" (Peruvian hot sauce) was the best I've had in a long time. My husband and I shared the "Aguacate Misti" which is an avocado with crab meat and melted Parmesan cheese and to me it was ok... but my husband loved it though. What I really liked was the Parihuela, a seafood soup that I cannot explain.... But the taste was incredible and the seafood plenty. Definitely a must in Key Biscayne and Miami overall... read more

I would give the food here a solid 3.5 HOWEVER, What could have been an enjoyable experience was ruined by a waitress who decided that eating the Cancha (the toasted snack they serve you as soon as you get seated) right out of the serving container with her bare hands was acceptable!! She repeatedly did this, wiping her hands on her shirt and touching utensils and serving customers in between!!! Disgusting!!! And just now she actually served some Cancha from that container to the people that just sat next to us!!! Where is the health inspector when you need him!! And should I go get a zpack just in case? And by the way, we asked to speak to the manager and she never came even though she was sitting just a couple of tables away..,stay away from this place!!! read more

The service at Gran Inka was great. We started off with the yuca stuffed with meat appetizer and the fish ceviche. I recommend both. The whole table went crazy over them. For our main dish we had the angus skirt steak cooked medium which was deliciously seasoned and came with veggies. To wash everything down we all had a round of Cristal beers. The inside is a little crammed so if the weather is nice I prefer to sit outside. When the bill came tip was already included at 18% I'm not sure if this is for groups of 6 but read more

Best ceviche in Miami! If you are on the Key, you can't go wrong with this choice. It looks unassuming from the outside but you won't be disappointed. read more

This place was overpriced honestly. Most of their entrees were at least $15 or more (the lunch I ordered was $21). Wowza! Of course, the presentation was perfect with every dish and their service was very nice. It was also very clean and classy inside for sure. But the food was not so totally amazing to deserve those kinds of monetary transactions. Their lomo saltado had really tender meat and a great marinade though. I feel like this place is fun to try at least once, but we wouldn't go back again. read more

Recommended by a Peruvian colleague. The moment you walk in you know it's authentic. Patrons are all Peruvian. Only spanish is spoken. We ordered their classic ceviche. It gives you a perfect punch of savory and citrus flavors, but not too overpowering. I would highly recommend. My boyfriend got their lomo saltado, and the meat was served tender. Portion sizes are just right.. not too big.. not too small.. but just right :) read more

Food on Key Biscayne can be very expensive and not particularly good, but Gran Inka was very tasty. We had the Ceviche (Cilantro), Tuna Tartare, Fish Corvina which were all excellent. They also have a kids menu of very plain food for the picky eater read more

When I first started coming to Key Biscaine , The dining choices ranged from dull to dreadful. How refreshing to have so many new and excellent International dining choices on the island. My 2 experiences at gran inka have been uniformly excellent. Note: enjoying Peruvian cuisine requires a love of seafood. The ceviche de cilantro is my favorite. Leave room for desert: suspiro! read more

I love taking people here when they come to visit from out of town & I also love to come all the time :0) everything is good, you really cant go wrong. Ask for Ruben, he is the best!! read more

I've stopped at the Inka a few times for lunch when I've been to Key Biscayne and really enjoyed the food and service. It seems a bit pricey, but the food is so different than I'm used to, that it's worth it for the fun of it. Friends who should know tell me that this grub is the real Peruvian deal. I'll take their word for it and it gives me a reason to consider Peru for my next vacation... Everything I've had has been perfectly plated (I mean really cute) and delicious. I understand from the waiter that men do all the cooking in Peru and they do it here, as well (they not only wear the pants in the family, but the aprons, too!). Good job, dudes! You know how to show the food some love! I'll be back... read more

Ive tried El Gran Inka in North Miami and we really enjoyed it so we decided to try the one in KB which is now closer to us. The service was so bad we had to leave because we never got our food waiting over one hour. This has never happened to me at a nice restaurant..not even an apology or an explanation. Next time I will go back to my usual spots, Ceviche Bar & Ceviche 105. read more

Great food!!!! Just on the pricey side..... This was one of the few places you could get authentic, extremely high quality Peruvian food in Miami until the recent "Peruvian restaurant explosion." Very nice decor but the location (small retail spot in a strip mall next to a Winn Dixie) takes away from the ambiance. I'd still recommend highly though for a unique experience. Think of this place as a MUCH higher end Aromas de Peru on Key Biscayne. read more

Worst service ever in Key Biscayne. I honestly am not one to complain but I was shocked at the indifference of the staff and the overall terrible service. Long story short, our food never came out and we had to get up and leave after almost 1 hour and 30 minutes. Obviously we are very patient people for even waiting that long. For faster and better tasting Peruvian food I recommend Ceviche Bar, also located in Key Biscayne. read more

I have visited this place 3 x and the ceviche phenomenal and fish dishes you can choose the Spiciness. My daughter orders the seafood soup - the best ever broth and feed Us 2 nights . Staff and host cordial and watching all the people very inviting . Great family atmosphere . Wine is terrific . read more

What a terrible experience I just had at this place. I used to come here a lot. Trust me this is the last time. It took more than 20 minutes just for the server to get out drinks to the table. When I asked him for them he said in a rude tone " they are on their way sir. Just wait" The service has been deteriorating a lot and it is a shame. They have good food. But terrible service! read more

The food is not bad, and the decor is OK, BUT the what was really outstanding is the waitress with a bad attitude......sour.....very sour... tip was included in the bill, and not only that a 28% percent tip was included, she gave us another table's check with an $100.00 Dollars mistake? We had to call the credit card company and Instead of being apologetic, she gave us the cold shoulder and ignore us. The manager said that the money will go back to the account immediately, but it took about 10 days to be refund it. Tipping is not mandatory, but if you add a 28% tip at least you could be polite. With so many Peruvian restaurants in MIAMI this place has a little chance! read more

El Gran Inka offers some of the best, if not the best, Peruvian dishes I've tasted in Miami. The service is prompt and friendly, the food was just perfect and very unique in its taste. We started with a shrimp appetizer on top of potatoes with avocado, the shrimp was fresh, potato perfect, and avocado smooth and delicious. We had the classic papa a la huancaina with the hands down the best yellow sauce I've ever had, not overly spicy, just right. My boyfriend's beef dish was served with an egg on top and fried yuca. My chicken was stuffed with cheese and sliced with sweet potato puree on the side. It just just great all around. read more

I can't get enough of this place. We had a groupon, my cousin and I ordered separately two Gran Inka Ceviche and it was sooooo fresh and delicious we decided to order another one to share between us both. My grandma chaufa de mariscos was delicious and well presented and my mother's salmon was cooked to perfection! We will definitely be coming back and I'm looking forward to visiting the other location! read more

I have dined here several times. The food is consistently good; especially the ceviche. Staff are very friendly and professional. If you are in Key Biscayne, it's a great option to dine here. Although if you don't live in Key Biscayne there are better Peruvian options off the island like Pollo y Jarras or ceviche105. The restaurant is a bit small. And located in a strip mall next to Winn Dixie; not an ideal location. But good food. read more

Ok Yelp does it once again! Came here from all the recommendations on Yelp and once settled in with a good Malbec on the outdoor patio, took a look at all the good selections and went with my servers recommendation. Señor Jorge Dolanto suggested the ceviche cilantro, which was excellent as an appetizer. Then the pièce de résistance was the main course of Seabass Nikei, which was so good I practically licked the plate. Notch another one for Yelp! read more

Really good food and really good drinks. Wife and I jade a great meal with great ambience and great service. I would go back.

The most comfortable Peruvian dining experience I've ever had. The salteado de pollo was flavorful without being salty. I appreciate that the pan fried pieces of tomato managed to not break up into watery tatters. The hearty pieces of fries soaked up almost all of the excess saucy goodness, leaving me with a neat presentation. Bravo. Of course the same can be said of the salteado de mariscos. The conch slices were a very pleasant surprise and welcomed addition. Their dining tables, seats, napkins, utensils, place settings and collective color scheme all worked well together - very tasteful. I highly recommend dining outside; the woven seats outside are surprisingly comfortable. They also serve Inca Cola. Yes. read more

Came here last night for their Thursday "ceviche (and tiradito) madness" for $9.95. $2 Peruvian beers and $5 pisco sours. Sat outside in the comfortable chairs on a lovely Key Biscayne evening. Everything was delicious and our server Luis couldn't have been more helpful. read more

I went to this restaurant on a Sunday night with a couple of friends. We had reservations, and good thing because it was packed when we got there! The waiters seemed a little overwhelmed, and though they were nice, They were simply too busy to really be attentive to us. My favorite part of the meal was the appetizers. The ceviche was delicious and so was the shrimp and calamari. I had the pescado sudado and it was good, but nothing I was crazy about. The meal took forever, because again, the staff was not well prepared for the volume of clients. Would probably only go again if someone else invites me.. Not by my choice. read more

We really enjoyed our lunch. The portions were bigger than expected and the quality of the seafood and the preparation were both great. Definitely worth a trip. Try the a lo macho read more

From everything we ordered only ceviche was good. The paella, chicken soup and octopus missed flavor. The service was very slow and inattentive. Our server Ruben didn't look bothered at all; he never came back to the table to check on our food and we were waiting for the check for 30 min. Very disappointed. read more

There is a Gran Inka at the Dolphin Mall, but incomparable with the one at Key Biscayne. Meals are superior at Key Biscayne.

I finally made to the place and had dinner. Sitting on the corner table that is almost in the street . Yet the service and the food is awesome and they deserve 5 stars read more

Average service, average food. it fell short of what use to be. Lacking flavor. Not fresh products at all. read more

Food was ok. A little pricey but nice service for a peruvian restaurant (meaning you actually have attentive service) I enjoyed my ceviche sampler that I shared. The lomo saltado was delicious and beautifully served. FYI... We were a group 7 and it was cramped. read more

Amazing, we live in Kendall and would drive here for this treat. Every bite was a discovery. Peruvian food with excellent service, do not miss this place. read more

I have been a few times here and also the one in North Miami. Everything I have ordered from the menu has been good. In my opinion they have the best lomo saltado. The only downside is that both restaurants are pricey. But at least I know the quality of the food is better than other places. I always used vouchers here with no problems. read more

This place is an absolute rip off for the quality and the price of the food. In addition they charge 18% gratuity on spot and the service is TERRIBLE. Supposedly they have a new menu and they try to serve artistic dishes with great decoration. The food is terrible and shitty. The pulpo a la olivo tasted like bubble gum with kalamata mayonnaise. The portions are super small and we had to wait an 45 minutes for the food to arrive. If you like Peruvian food and appreciate the tastes, please avoid coming her. Save your money and go somewhere else. Whoever is in charge of this place is a complete ignorant with Peruvian cuisine. Peruvian food is one of the top 10 cuisines in the world, and the owner of this place is insulting the country's culinary greatness. read more

Wow this place is amazing. There's dozens of items on the menu I want to come back to try. As you can see from my picture the Lomo de Huancaina looks amazing and it also tastes that way. The place doesn't stick out because it's in a plaza where all the businesses have the color font on their signs but it's definitely worth finding read more

All I can say is wow! This restaurant is now one of my favorites. The only downfall is that I live so far away. I was staying at the Ritz Carlton and came to El Gran Inka due to a recommendation from the hotel. For starters we were a large party (there were 16 of us) and no one had eaten Peruvian food before. The service was great! Our waitress was very helpful in recommending dishes that were tailored to our likes. She seemed to be very knowledgeable about the cuisine and was very attentive to our needs. We enjoyed 50% off our bottles of wine which was a phenomenal deal. The waitress recommended trying the Pisco Sour, a beverage made with Peruvian Brandy. It was delicious! The food was out of this world! I had the the Mahi alo macho (can't remember the exact name). It was a filet of fresh white fish with pieces of seafood in a delectable sauce. Sooooo yummy! Can't wait to come back for more delicious cuisine and outstanding service! read more
