Inca's is great! Small, cozy, lively, and friendly atmosphere. The food is delish! We asked our server to recommend his favorite dishes and we order those- all were amazing. The warm corn nuts are very good. Our server turned out to be the owners son and he introduced us to his mother (the owner) who was very nice and appreciative of our business. We will be back! read more

Delicious large whole chicken, really mouth watering. French fries are great but, made from potatoes cut in their kitchen??? Hummm... Salad was great. Rice not enthused about the cilantro infusion. $9 for a pisco sour? You've got to be kidding! Ceviche apparently great. Will go back. read more

I had lunch at Inca's for the first time last week. I wanted the Arroz con Pollo, but they had no rotisserie chicken. Not sure if that's because they never have rotisserie chicken at lunch or what. The server didn't explain the reason and she was impatient when I asked questions about the menu. Her brow was furrowed waiting on us. What I had was okay - salty orange rice and shrimp, but it wasn't a memorable meal, nor a dish that I would go back for. read more

Overall good food and friendly environment. The server forgot about one of our dishes so we had to wait a little longer but it was fine. I had the lomo saltado and it was very good. Will return if ever in the area. read more

Came here not expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised! What delicious traditional and well prepared food. Moved to Phoenix from CA a few years ago and had not found anything remotely comparable to some of the good CA Peruvian food restaurants, but I have to say this place tops them all. The Peruvian Ceviche is my favorite so of course I had to order that and let me tell you, WOW spot on on flavor and freshness. My kidz loved their chicken & pappas and the Seafood mix with rice. Will definitely make it a point to come back anytime I'm in Tuscon area. read more

Was in town for a conference, and happened to see this little gem! Delicious food, really friendly & helpful staff. I spent several months living in Peru, and the food here was just as wonderful as I remembered. Would highly recommend! read more

One of my absolute favorites of Tucson! Loyal customer - great food and staff ! Pisco sours are bomb! Outdoor seating now available :)

LOVE this place!! Super friendly! Fantastic food! We always have a wonderful experience!

My husband surprised me for our anniversary to Inca's and what an incredible experience! (We fell in love in Peru!) The food was out of this world delicious, portions were huge (and not expensive), the Pisco Sours were the best I have ever had and the music of the Andes performed live by Groupo Tradiciones was the 'sugar on the flan'! They performed the beautiful pan pipes, and other traditional guitars and their voices were great. I closed my eyes and it took me down memory lane of the beautiful trip we took to Peru. The service was great (we were even given an extra treat for our anniversary) , the owner is very engaging and we will be back soon....bringing friends! I had no idea they were so close to our home so this will be one of our GO TO places! Thank you for such a great experience dining, conversation, music, and delicious food! read more

Food was excellent. Here's my issues: Menu too confusion unless you know what your talking about Portions are ok but leaves ya wanting more. Service was super slow and there was only two parties at time for lunch Seemed a bit pricey for lunch. I probably won't come back read more

Everything was great: the music, the environment, the service, the drinks; but the food was just more than great. I really enjoy my visit.

I found Inca's about four years ago and a trip to Tucson would be a loss with out enjoying the cuisine here. I have seen it absolutely full and almost empty, but that doesn't affect the service and the food you can expect to enjoy. I recommend letting the staff suggest a meal if you don't know what to have. And, have one of their native drinks if you are not a beer or wine sort of person. Peruvian food may not be for everyone but unless you try it, you don't know what you are missing, and inca's is one of those places, you want to do it. read more

My meal was so-so, but the other 3 people in my group ordered meals that they raced about. The servers went above and beyond to help us accommodate our toddler. The quality of the food was good as well. There is something for everyone including a kids' menu. They only have 1 highchair and no booster seats. read more

Inca's Peruvian Cuisine - Pescado a la Menier. Not the best logging for the photo, but gives an idea of portion and presentation. - Latin American Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

By far the BEST Peruvian cuisine and culinary experience ever !!! The food is elevated and elegant with flavors that are so refined. You may even feel like planning your next venture to Machu Picchu, I know I will ! Thank you Fatima & Luis the staff and service were fabulous and so welcoming . Looking forward to my next dining experience when I am in Tucson ! Thank you ! Great Menu (Causa Rellena & Arroz con Mariscos + Papa A la Huancaina), Great Cocktail (Pisco Sour) read more

We came here with a large group, and the service was excellent. They were extremely accommodating and efficient. I've visited Peru a handful of times for work, and I was incredibly excited to come have some of the delicious Peruvian food in Tucson. It was a delight to see the chica corn on the table to munch on before the main dishes. The pisco sours were tasty and tart. I ordered the lomo saltado, and at the recommendation of our server I got the "mixed" version. This wasn't on the menu, but he said it was very popular and was "only a couple dollars more". When we got our bills it was a bit shocking to see this mixed version with chicken, shrimp and beef was almost $10 surcharge on the "normal" lomo price. I felt somewhat misled and cheated. The food was good, but I don't think I could come back with the prices. read more

This place was a wonderful find. My parents, grandparents, and I enjoyed every aspect of your lunch. Arthur did an amazing job to explain each aspect of the dish for my grandparents and made sure we were all happy with our food. He gave us samples of Chicha Morada and the Helado de Lúcuma. Interesting flavors that I haven't had since I visited Peru four years ago. They also have Inca Cola! read more

The food is great! Been here a few times now and our server was the owner of the place. She was very nice and have us great dining suggestions. They serve you this salty corn dried up as an appetizer. Trust me....it's GREAT! The main course was awesome. I got the Loma Saltado with rice and it was very good. Overall I would suggest Incas to anyone! This is real, authentic dining! read more

Great food and service. Flavors were excellent (bit on salty side - for that I should have ding them 1/2 star). Aunt had ceviche- healthy and delicious with corn with largest kernels I've ever seen and perfectly steamed sweet potatoes. We also had steak dish with added shrimp over fries. Grandpa couldn't stop eating large steak fries off of my kid's dish - he said it was the best fries he'd ever had. It was crispy on outside and melt in your mouth soft on the inside. The dessert was also excellent- caramel cookies tasted like sweet jam on freshly baked butter cookies. Lucuma ice cream was buttery and fresh (Amazon fruit that taste like a cross between papaya and guava). Grandpa and aunt are hard to please and they both very much enjoyed their dinner. read more

Excellent service and delicious food! Mr. Manuel I. gave us great recommendations on the food and made us feel at home every second we were there! 100% recommended read more

I'm always up for a little something new. I stopped in and browsed the menu and ordered one appetizer and an entree. I experienced a flavorful explosion on my tastebuds! I mean to say that I have not tasted anything quite like it. I will be back again soon with a few friends. This place is a must!! read more

FAST Review Food 3/5 - I always like try the Lomo Saltado at Peruvian restaurants, since if they can't make that right, then there's really no point in going. At Inca's, the Lomo Saltado is just OK to me. A little too much soy sauce in IMO. The causa rellena (basically potato stuffed with chicken/tuna salad) was good. I didn't try the ceviche this time, but maybe I will if I come again. Nor did I have any anticuchos, which are skewers made of chicken or beef (or my favorite, cow heart, but not sure if they serve them here). The pisco sours were better than I've had at other restaurants (even some in Peru...at least here you can taste the Pisco) but they can't hold water to the one's my dad has made. I tried the chicha morada (which is a purple corn drink), which was refreshing, but I would have liked a couple chunks of pineapple in it. Ambiance 3/5 - Very small restaurant. We had made reservations and to approach the desk where they process payments and such you had to squeeze through the live band (which was nice, if a bit loud for the small area) and narrow space between the tables. We ended up being seated on the outside patio, which looks like an after-thought to the restaurant. Seems like it could have used a bit sprucing up. Service 3/5 - Initially we were greeted by a guy who I wasn't sure what his role was. He seemed to be dressed as more of a bus boy or one of the cooks, but apparently he served food and also played in the band. A little bizarre, but then we had a waitress come out and take our food orders. All in all, service was decent. Total Impression 3/5 - There are not many options if you want Peruvian food in Tucson, unfortunately. In my opinion I think Don Pedro's food tastes a little better, but if you are in the area I would recommend giving Inca's a try (if for nothing else to experience a taste of the Peruvian cuisine). Then go visit the northern coast of Peru where you will have some of the best ceviche ever!! read more

Exceptional and unique food, unlike anywhere I've eaten before. This was my first Peruvian cuisine experience and I was pleasantly surprised. Pisco Sours were delicious and the Causa Rellena and Ceviche appetizers were out of this world. Had the Lomo Saltado for an entree which was good but the beef was dry and a tad over cooked. The owner was incredibly kind and attentive as well. Will definitely be back. read more

Inca's Peruvian Cuisine - Pisco sours - Latin American Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

We had the family meal, and I thought it was delicious and a great value. La papa a la huancaina was the highlight, and the only disappointment was the serving size for a family meal. The chicken had great flavor, though the skin was not crispy. I did not like the calamari, but the rest of the family did. There was a green sauce that was absolutely divine (not sure what it was intended for, but we used it on the chicken). The salad was fine, though needed more dressing. My wife loves the steak fries, which were fine, but I would have preferred more papa a la huancaina. read more

I just read Ava's 3/5/19 review. As it is polar opposite to all the other reviews, I must conclude that Ava is a close friend of a competitor. Unlike Ava, I dine at Inca's whenever I am in Tucson...about 6 or 7 times a year. Without exception, I have always found the service attentive and friendly accompanied by excellent food...not to mention the Pisco Sours. Although anyone can have an off night, Ava poured it on to excess. I trust she will dine at her friend's restaurant leaving a table open for those that desire a fine night out at reasonable prices. read more

I am in Incas and had their version of fish and chips. The British would be proud. Nice moist fish crispy chips / fries. Because I Like It Hot I had the rocoto pepper. It's from Peru and it is spicy spicy spicy. Yummo! Love the dish. I would have taken a picture, but I didn't think of doing the review till after I eating all the food. My bad. manuel is the best server thank you read more

Stopped in for a snack, left extremely satisfied and educated about Peruvian food. I had their Inca Kola which tastes exactly like bubble gum and some yacuma root "fries". Roasted corn was served with it which combined with soda and "fries", filled me up for the next few hours. Their full menu looks exotic and amazing as compared to most other restaurants in town so am anticipating coming back for lunch or dinner sometime. read more

Never having had Peruvian cuisine before, had no idea what to expect. This small but quaint restaurant is a family-run eatery. My husband had excellent Ceviche (he has had Ceviche in the past) and the Pisco Porton was a perfect match. I had the Arroz con Mariscos (Peruvian version of Spanish paella). The owner really made sure you were satisfied with the dish you ordered. Definitely will go back. read more

We went about every 3 months prior to the pandemic. The food has always been excellent. Though when there were more than tables the service was very slow. We learned to go there are 2 or 3 tables occupied. Truly a different meal experience that will fulfill taste buds. read more

Did not realize the original location is in Tucson. They used to have a Scottsdale location. Food was amazing. I had the Ceviche Mixto. Perfect amount of heat ( I got mild) I would only get hot if you like ALOT of heat. Service was a bit slow though, it was packed and went on Saturday night, so that is probably why. read more

This place was amazing! I want it every night if only I could afford it every night. I regret not finishing my meal it was spicy though! To bad I live in the other side of town....wanna make a location in Rita ranch or deliver to my house for free! Sorry my kid made a mess! read more

Inca's Peruvian Cuisine is so incredible!!!!! The food is to die for delicious. I had the Tacu Tacu which consists of peruvian canary beans and jasmine rice sauteed with tomatoes, green beans, carrots, onions and some other very delicious ingredients. I originally was going to order Myacura (sweet passion juice drink) because a friend of mine had ordered it one time and I wanted to try it for myself, but one of the staff/waiters convinced me to try Inca's Pisco Sour and it was so delicious. I am very glad she convinced me to try that instead. For dessert I had a delicious alfajore which I highly recommend you try if you enjoy sweets/desserts. The staff/ waiters, the owner, and the chief are all extremely welcoming and warm. A part from all of the many Mexican restaurants in Tucson, it is extremely difficult to find Latin American cuisine! So I am very grateful that such a wonderful place such as Inca's exists. I just wish I lived closer so that I could go more frequently!!! But that won't stop me from coming. read more

A great experience. Ordered the Ahi de Gallina. It was superb. Very kind waitstaff. I will definitely go again. Recommended.

Good little place. Having been to Peru I can attest to the legitimacy of this restaurant. The food is goos, staff is competent and the people are generally of good quality. Not noisy. read more

Wow! Just wow! I love this place! Guy Fieri was on point! The food was absolutely amazing. Try the Aji de Gallina. Lidia our waitress was absolutely fantastic!! She really made our first dinner special and we will be back! read more

Great atmosphere and amazing food! It was the first time I had Peruvian food and it was great. Even my kids- 5, 4 and 16 month old loved it!! read more

The workers were great and the food was excellent. I had them made a special dish for me and they had no problem doing it. Difelinitly a place to eat if your up to try new and or you like Peruvian... Thank you and when I'm back in Tucson I'll be back... read more

Great food, great service and great drinks! We were vising from El Paso and loved this place! read more

Absolutely wonderful even during Covid! Seating outside at about 6 pm is completely in the shade and very comfortable. We ordered everything from ceviche to the pollo asado and it was all delicious. Our server was helpful and attentive. I don't think we could have asked for more. If you're unfamiliar w Peruvian food don't worry it's just good food!!! read more

We checked out this place cause it's close to home and was reviewed by Guy Fieri. First time trying Peruvian style meal. On arrival Tyler greeted us and sat us at our table. Tyler was very welcoming and pleasant with his always-smiling persona. I ordered the Lomo Saldata; it arrived hot. I liked how it looked. The angus beef looked really tender in the sauce mixed in with the yellow potatoes and peppers. Initially I asked for mild spicy, but when I tried the meal it seemed to me it was less than mild to almost no spice. But that's me. I like spicy food. Tyler brought some rocotto pepper sauce. That did it! That gave the meal the kick that made it very delicious. My brow was sweaty but I enjoyed each bite throughout the meal. I recommend ice water with it! Tyler was very good at keeping our glasses topped off. That's a plus. Overall very good place to eat Peruvian food. You won't be disappointed; but if expecting spicy when meal is by default "spicy", I recommend side of the rocotto peppers to seal the deal. Prices were very pleasantly not hard on the wallet, for the great quality. Will definitely come back. read more
