I wish I could do five but just can't. The ceviche is amazing. The waiter was ok. Too much in a hurry. Maybe under staffed or something. I ordered the half chicken and rice dish it was not as hot as it should be. Temperature was off. Other than that it's good. We came from Nevada to eat here. Watched Triple D and came here while in the area. read more

I found this place while perusing random places on Yelp. I thought it looked interesting. So I checked out the menu and read other reviews. It received positive reviews so my partner and I came here for lunch. It was a weekday at noon, so we were the only ones there. Everything on the menu looked so good. We asked our server what he would recommend for new comers. He said the most popular dish was the Lomo Saltado, which is beef marinaded in Peruvian spices. We both got the Lomo Saltado. It came with a cute little side of rice in the shape of a pyramid. (It's actually a good portion of rice). The meat was tender, not overcooked. It paired well with the rice and other vegetables that came with it. My favorite part of the dish, aside from the beef, was the potatoes. They tasted just like fries and they were just so good. I also got a glass of the Chicha Morada, which is a homemade Peruvian beverage made with purple corn, fresh pineapples, apples, and cinnamon. It was amazing. I thought it would be sweet but it wasn't. It was just the right amount of sweet. We didn't get dessert this time, but I would love to go back to try the other dishes on the menu. I highly, highly recommend. read more

My wife and I had previously eaten here about a week ago. We stopped by again this evening without a reservation. We got seated, but never served. Two other people got tables after us and got served. After waiting for 15 minutes, we got up and left. Great food, shiity service. read more

Incredible food! Guy Fieri was correct when he said this place is amazing! The service is great, the food is so flavorful and the hot sauces are so fresh and spicy while still retaining the heat. Highly recommend! read more

Inca's catered our rehearsal lunch and their team did such a fantastic job! They are all so friendly and professional and on top of that the food is amazing. Everyone was raving about it, even the small children who are normally picky eaters. We also had pisco sours and those were a hit. Fatima and her team went above and beyond to ensure our event went perfectly. Thank you so much!! read more

What a treat! We reserved a table (party of 6) and it was ready when we got there on a Saturday evening. Had the bonus of live music and a very festive atmosphere. Service was very good and they were happy to discuss the various menu options and share the heritage. Our favorite appetizer was a spicy ceviche, but they were all good. Entrees were varied and everyone was happy with their meal. Will eat here again when visiting Tucson. You should experience Inca's! read more

We'd never tried Peruvian food before, so it was refreshing to try something new. The service was friendly, and the waitress offered great menu suggestions. As an appetizer, we enjoyed the Yucca fries, which I thought were like a "cousin" to french fries, as they were similar, but different---they were crispy and yummy and were served with a tasty green dipping sauce. For my entree, I decided to go with the Lomo Saltado, which consisted of tender strips of marinated beef in Peruvian spices with onions and tomatos served with rice and potatoes. My date ordered the Aji de Gallina, which is pulled chicken cooked in amarillo and walnuts, served with rice and potatoes. Both dishes were rich, flavorful and very filling, and the portions were generous. I had enough leftovers for lunch the next day. I loved the Passion Fruit Pisco cocktail. It tasted like a tropical paradise. I can't wait to come back and check out the other menu items. read more

From the time we sat down until we left the dining experience was wonderful. The ceviche was delicious. The house made hot sauce was perfectly balanced. The entrees were cooked to perfection and the blend of seasonings and spices was amazing. We couldn't resist trying both dessert offerings and were glad we got them! Our waitress was friendly and personable and made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely go back...over and over again! read more

I came here for the first time a while back craving some goof Peruvian food. When I arrived I ordered takeout: Aji de Gallina, Papa a la Huricaina, and an Inca Kola can. Everything was absolutely amazing especially the Aji de Gallina which melted in my mouth. I also was given a small side of Peruvian corn kernels as a little side snack... they were very tasty too. The famous Guy from Food Network came here and claimed it was excellent and I too attest to its greatness. Absolute must go! read more

Excellent food, service, and ambiance. Picsco Sour was a delicious drink, Papa Rellano was a wonderful appetizer, and a fish and steak main course between me and my Mom. Nice live music, too. read more

This place is incredible! I am from the Bay Area, my step dad is Peruvian, and I rarely find a Peruvian restaurant that meets our family's standard of good food. This place was not only delicious but the service was outstanding even during these COVID times. I don't write reviews often but I HAD to for this place. Definitely worth it!!! read more

I am a regular..about once every month or so...that was shocked to read anything other than a stellar review. Everytime I go to Incas, I am greeted with a full menu and bar, friendly/attentive staff and wonderful cuisine at a fair price. Of course, only the mediocre are always at their best, but a bad night at Incas is totally foreign to me and the many folks I have sent there. See you soon Incas. read more

I recommend the ahi de gallina and the lomo saltado they taste amazing the ahi de gallina is so nice creamy,flavorful, great looks too ! But the lomo saltado is my top pick the steak is so juicy and very flavorful the fries are well seasoned and have the perfect crust. The rice has the perfect texture these plates are definitely a 12/10 read more

Surprisingly wonderful dining experience. I don't normally expect much from mall food sites, but this was the exception. Super warm and friendly staff, interesting and tasty food, and a fine Pisco Sour! Try this place! read more

If you ever had Peruvian food, you won't like their lomo saltado. I was pretty disappointed. It had no flavor. There's only two Peruvian restaurants in Tucson. So I'm not surprised it was not good. I would say that the service is great. The staff is friendly. If you never had Peruvian food, you will probably like it. Also, the food was overpriced. Normally when I go to a Peruvian restaurant (out of town), there's at least 2 servings and you're paying less than $18 for your meal. read more

Food is good but waay overpriced for the portion size. Will not go back. $18.99 for a small seafood dish w/ 2 of the 3 container sections filled with rice & $10 for 1 potato & meat pocket. read more

This place is the ABSOLUTELY WORST EVER. I've been to many Peruvian Cuisine restaurants across the nation and have never tasted such an EMBARRASSMENT to PERU. They didn't bring us ANY sauces nor bread. Their service was as RUDE as they come. And we pre-ordered our food and still had to wait 30minutes for it. (Even after we were given a specific time when everything would be ready). Also when they brought the food they told us last minute their pollo a la braza as not available (even after they had confirmed the order). If you want decent food and a good place to dine with your family THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT IT!!! read more

This is the best Peruvian restaurant in Tucson hands down! Visited the location last weekend with the family and were genuinely impressed by the food, service and attention given to the family. Juliana was our server and was outstanding, she paid attention to detail! We ordered the whole chicken special, along with the chicha morada and wow best tasting chicken anywhere! I highly recommend, and the way Juliana and the owner treated my toddler was great, made us feel so welcome and like family. Highly recommend this restaurant, you won't be let down! read more

Very tasty meal with a companion for Sunday lunch. Ordered Gallina and Carapulca, both were excellent and we took home about 40% of the order. Attentive, friendly service and we ate inside in this heat, but loved the tablecloths on the patio. Worth the trip for a change of pace. read more

I had lunch at Inca's Peruvian for the first time. We were celebrating a family member's birthday. The service was very good. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and gave suggestions for our lunch choices. I had Jalea de Mariscos. It was a mixture of seafood with thinly sliced onions and tomato on top. The seafood was fresh and the dish had an excellent flavor. I recommend the restaurant I would definitely go back. read more

My husband and I visited Inca's for the first time. It was a fun and inviting experience with great music. We both loved the soltado. The only reason for 4 versus 5 stars is that they don't offer a NA beer. This is a simple addition to have on hand and makes those that don't drink feel like they are included and part of the evening celebration. read more

We stopped in at Incas on a Friday night with no reservation. We were seated within minutes despite there being a crowd. Service was outstanding. I was impressed to observe how many of the servers actually were familiar with their customers. The whole place felt like a big family. Everyone was very polite and welcoming. I was told it is family owned and operated and that the recipes were passed down from the mother-in-law in Peru. Despite how busy they were, we received our food fairly quickly. I had the jalea de mariscos and my girlfriend had the pescado a lo macha. We ate so fast I forgot to even take a picture. The food was delicious and hefty in portion size. They even serve these Peruvian nuts to snack on before the food arrives. Try the pisco sour and the pisco passion fruit! Be warned they go down a little too easy. We will be back! Thank you again! read more

Great place and very good food. Far away from normal American burger/pizza dishes. Fresh ceviche was awesome and also nice Peruvian paella. read more

First time for dinner & it was outstanding. I had a beef dish & my wife had a shrimp dish. Jasmine rice is a real winner. Food & service was superb. We'll be going back again soon. Tom L. read more

We loved our food! 1st time trying Peruvian Cuisine, it was delicious and the service was great.

I don't know why we haven't try this yet until last evening. My wife and I are impressed with their food. The fried corn and fried fish appetizers were great. The was well seasoned, with tender morsels of fish wrapped in a crispy batter. They also give you pieces of the skin fried, which is IMHO even better than the fish. We shared the paella and rotisserie chicken for our main course. The Peruvian paella has plenty of seafood which tasted fresh. Rice is cooked al dente and not mushy. The rotisserie chicken is very juicy and flavorful. We have already gone back a few times and we have not been disappointed. read more

I was in the area and gave this place a try. Sure glad I did. Excellent food and great service from Monika. She's a firecracker.

The food was not authentic enough. Too bland. Perhaps, it has become too Americanized or localized. I have been to Peru, Guatemala, & other Peruvian countries & have loved their food. I will try other Peruvian restaurants in the area & compare notes. I love the neighborhood & food scene in general since I have moved here but I must say, it was disappointing. The overall dressing(sauce) was not enough to "cover" the ingredients & the supposedly "spicy" dish was far from being spicy. I may try again as I love the neighborhood. read more

Delicious. Friendly staff. We had the chicken and tried some of their unique sides as well. We will go back.

My dad came in from Ohio and wanted to try Inca's, we hadn't heard of it since we live on the other side of town but my dad saw it on an episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. AMAZING! The staff are so friendly and welcoming! Best service we've had in a long time. The food was incredible and we can't wait to go back. read more

We have moved very close to the restaurant when we moved to Tucson and we have been meaning to try it since we moved here. Tonight we went there for the first time and were very impressed. My son-in-law is from Peru and when we go to New York to visit them we eat at or get take out at many different Peruvian restaurants. We all tried three different dishes from the basic Peruvian Pollo a La Brasa (chicken ) dish , to Lomo Salgado (steak stew ) and Arroz Con Mariscos (seafood platter).We shared a shrimp cocktail before dinner with Peruvian sauce to dip in (it was a nice spicy creamy dipping sauce). We also had a couple of different type of Pisco drinks I had a Pisco sour and Kathy had a Maracuya Pisco (passionfruit) to drink. The shrimp cocktail was outstanding as it had a lot of shrimp and the dipping sauce was a little hot but very nice. The Pollo a La Brasa was exactly like we have had in New York when we visit, but with a little more flavor. I've had the Lomo Salgado a few times and this one was much better than the other ones I have had before in NYC. Instead of getting rice and potato I had Quinoa and used a little of the Peruvian hot sauce that they prepare from peppers imported from Peru. Without the hot sauce the quinoa was OK but not great with the hot sauce it was a completely outstanding different dish. The meat was simmered with different types of onions and tomatoes and the broth was very flavorful and outstanding. Tim had the Arroz Con Mariscos (seafood platter) there was a lot of food. Enjoyed it very much and especially the creamy potatoes that came with it. Kathy and I split a Flan for dessert and Tim had a stuffed cookie. Excellent flavor on both of them. The staff was friendly and helpful and especially with Tim who had never been to a Peruvian restaurant before and she explained what the different dishes were and talked about what he liked and suggested the seafood platter. With us, she just asked what we were interested in and help us along with our order. She and the bartender were very friendly and happy and the service was excellent and perfect. I can highly recommend that if you like Peruvian food we're never tried Peruvian food that you come here and you will enjoy the food and the drinks. You will also like the hospitality very much. This is one of the best Peruvian restaurants we have ever eaten in in the last 20 years. read more

This a delightful small (10 table) restaurant in a northeast Tucson strip mall. The service was efficient and pleasant. My wife had a dish with marinated beef, rice and potatoes. She said the beef was tender and delicious. I had a Peruvian take on paella. The seafood (calamari,shrimp and mussels) was plentiful mixed in a bed of rice. It was very good. The atmosphere was relaxed. It may be a tad overpriced but that would not keep me from returning. It was quite busy for a Tuesday evening. read more

Peruvian food, I found, was not particularly for me, but we could not have had a better experience! The food was VERY good, but the service was phenomenal- the young lady who helped us was so knowledgeable of the menu, and an absolute delight to meet! read more

Very flavorful cuisine and fresh ceviche, but the portions for takeout were fairly small for the prices.

This place is THE BEST!!! I am visiting Tucson from LA and every single time I come to this area I have to stop by Inca's! The beef lomo saltado and pescado a la menier are to die for. You also can't go to Inca's and not get pisco sours! Douglas was our server and he was amazing - such quick service and so friendly! One of my favorite restaurants by far! read more

This hidden gem in the foothills could be easily missed in the Basha's shopping center at Kolb and Sunrise. I've eaten here a couple of times and both times didn't disappoint. The Ceviche Mixto is a must-have appetizer. Fresh with fish, shrimp, octopus and some corn, red onion and Peruvian yam, the flavor bursts with the usual citrus, but this particular mixture was enhanced by the sweetness of the yam. My main course was a mixture of fried seafood over a sautéed filet of whitefish. My dining companion had a sautéed whitefish, and both were excellent. Do not skip their white rice served with the entrees. It's probably the best rice I've ever had - it looks like plain white rice, but has loads of flavor with buttery goodness and great flavor. read more

On a leisurely Sunday, I ate at the Inca's Peruvian Cuisine in the Catalina Foothills community because I was craving for ceviche and my absolute favorite Arroz Con Pollo (chicken with flavored rice). With indoor and outdoor seating, I decided to sit inside of this well decorated restaurant with about 10 tables and an open bar. The décor matched the artwork and ambiance of the Peruvian theme. I started off with the colorful Machu Picha cocktail ($8). Made out of Peruvian Pisco (clear liquor), this not only looked pleasing but had a great kick. As a complimentary starter, they included salted cancha (toasted corn snacks) which went perfectly with my drink. My go-to appetizer Ceviche de Pescado ($15) had huge slices of fresh white fish marinated in lime juice and Peruvian rocoto pepper, Peruvian corn kernels and a thick cut slice of yam. As a warning, this is a spicy dish but I'm sure you can order it mild as well. The heat doesn't hit you at first but more of an after burn. Loved it! The red onions added a mild sweetness to the dish. One of the best ceviches I've ever had. Without hesitation, I enthusiastically ordered the Arroz con Pollo a la brasa ($11). The quarter chicken was served with cilantro-infused rice with bell peppers, Peruvian corn, peas and carrots. The waitress asked if I preferred white or dark meat and I choose white because of my dietary constrictions. Unfortunately, it came with skin-on and I had to remove it and was told that's where all the flavor was packed. I was distraught but still ate my chicken with a smile. The rice had a robust cilantro flavor but felt both were slightly on the smaller portion size. The Picante de Mariscos ($19) was a surprise favorite. The spicy generous assortment of seafood was flavor packed in aji amarillo panca suave sauce. There were all sorts of seafood from mussels, calamari to giant shrimps topped off with a scoop of white rice. The sauce was outstanding! I even used my chicken pieces to dip into the sauce. My server, Audrey was so sweet and I felt she went beyond to make sure I was satisfied. She was quick to welcome us and asked if I had any questions. In fact, she was not happy with the original cocktail she made for me because the colors started to blend and made me another as shown in the photo. Overall, the cocktail, appetizer and seafood entrée was a special treat but was extremely disappointed in the Arroz con Pollo. I would definitely come back and order the first three items again and maybe something completely different. They also offered a 10% off order during Yelp check in. Can't wait to try it again on my next visit to Tucson! read more

We came to Inca's in search of a good Peruvian fare and fully enjoyed the dining experience. On our visit, the restaurant had a great front patio naturally shaded to accompany a small and cozy interior. Once inside, the full bar, large and small paintings, warm lighting, TVs, and rows of small tables underscored the modern and red-wooded décor. We were greeted promptly with a dish of toasted Peruvian corn. Together, the atmosphere was welcoming and conducive for single diners, couples, and small groups for quiet gatherings. The Ceviche De Pescado ($14.99) was made with thick cuts of white fish marinated in lime juice, rocoto pepper, yam and Peruvian corn. The large pieces of white fish arrived spicy to ignite a slow burn on the tongue that paired nicely with the acidity of the lime juice. The fish was delicious, but could be fresher or seasoned longer to get rid of the subtle aftertaste. The yam and Peruvian corn were effective secondary ingredients as they added dimensions of sweetness and textures to alternate with the spicy deliciousness. It was a good appetizer. I would order this item again or try the Ceviche Mixto. The Arroz Con Pollo A La Brasa ($11) arrived with a quarter of pollo a la brasa and a side of cilantro-infused rice with bell peppers, Peruvian corn, peas and carrot. The cilantro rice was fluffy and nicely flavored, but the portion was a bit skimpy. The same could be said about the chicken that was boney and not a lot of meat. I thought the seasoning was limited to the skin, and not thoroughly infused throughout the cut of breast meat and wing. The dish was okay, but expensive for what is worth. I wouldn't order it again. The Picante De Mariscos ($18.99) was simply delicious. The dish included large shrimps, mussels, calamari, and steamed rice. The mix of seafood was sautéed with aji Amarillo panca suave sauce. The sauce was slightly sweet and acidic, followed by notes of spicy deliciousness to accompany the natural seafood flavors. The shrimps were meaty with great texture, and the amount of seafood on the plate was sensational. Addictive, I almost licked the dish clean to get the last of the sauce. Service was very kind, informative, down to earth, and attentive. Overall, we thought the prices were a bit higher than expected, but the amount of seafood and wow factor we got in return made the experience worthwhile. I would be very interested in coming back to try the Anticuchos, Arroz Con Mariscos, and Tallarines a la Huacaina. 3.5 stars for the overall experience. read more
