I seriously just had the best meal I've had in a long time. The wait staff was amazing. I started with the ceviche De Pascado. Seriously one of the best ceviches I've had. Well balanced! I moved on to the arris con Masriscos. The seafood was perfect. The mussels were so tender. It's so easy to overcook seafood in a mixed dish like this but it was just so perfect. The rice was so flavorful. I can't recommend this place enough!! read more

Wonderful authentic and creative Peruvian cuisine. Everything here is delicious. We've never had a bad dish at Inka. It's one of our new favorite places. The sangria is amazing, too. Don't forget to try the desserts. read more

Inka Grill - Chaufa de Pollo - Peruvian Near Me - Roanoke, Virginia

The food is delicious! This Peruvian restaurant is new in the area and it has lots to offer. First of all, the presentation is amazing and the taste is like if you were eating in a restaurant in Peru. I definitely recommend ceviche and pollo a la brasa. For an appetizer, you should try causa and fried yuca. The service is also top notch, the staff is very friendly! read more

I'm from northern vA near DC, where there's plenty of pollo/Peruvian cuisine spots. This place was easy to find, plenty of parking on a Friday during lunch hour. Food was delicious and better than any places near me and at a good price. Idk how many Peruvian places are in Roanoke I don't imagine there's many, but everything we ordered tasted authentic and great. If you don't know about Peruvian cuisine do yourself a favor and try it out and find out why it's rated #1 in the world by the best in the business. We ordered anticuchos (marinated cow heart skewers) , jalea (fried seafood), Tacu tacu, lomo saltado and picarones (squash, sweet potato donuts). Would def come back. Compliments to the cook and waitress. They know what they're doing. read more

My wife and I really think a 3.5 star rating would be fair for this place. It is good food, just not good Peruvian food. We came here with a group of 7 because my wife and I love Peruvian. It was an introduction to Peruvian food for the rest of our group and they loved it. I had the lomo saltado and what I typically like about it is the char you get on the vegetables and the steak while the meat stays rare and the vegetables stay firm. This is done by cooking it on an incredibly hot pan. My particular dish had good seasoning, but no char on the steak or vegetables and meat was overcooked and vegetables were super soft. Rice was too glutinous, not sure if they rinse the starches out first and then fry in hot oil to get that fluffy yet separate rice kernels just slightly firm. My wife's peruvian chicken was on the dry side, though it had a nice smokiness to it. Typically, Peruvian chicken is fall off the bone, moist, succulent, wonderful, and amazing. Our waitress was friendly and portions were hefty, just nowhere near the level of Peruvian cuisine we are used to. We both felt it was a one timer, no need to come back. But, it is different enough from American food that we can see the appeal in a city like Roanoke. read more

I've never had Peruvian cuisine, but my fiancé and I split the Tacu Tacu con Lomo for lunch with a side of fried plantains and both dishes were HEAVEN. Excited to go back and try everything else on the menu especially the Pisco Sour. The service was fabulous and the restaurant is very spacious with many tables, intimate booths, and a bar. Do yourself a favor and try this place out. read more

Love it! Food is wonderful and staff are super friendly. Our meals were prepared perfectly and everything was fresh and delicious. Definitely a new family favorite. read more

Wow! What an exquisite meal we had. The ceviche combo appetizer blew us away! We have had ceviche many times before but this was fantastic! Next came the meals... my 1/4 juicy, roasted chicken was enough to satisfy my appetite along with the delicious fried plantains. Perfect! Hubby tried the Bisteak with pesto linguine. Fabulous tender meat and (not a basil pesto) a delicious mild version of some other herb pesto. Service was spot on and presentation was beautiful. When passing through Roanoke again, we will most definitely be coming back here! read more

Ordered the whole chicken, carne chaufa, and veggies. The chicken and chaufa were AMAZING, and the veggies were okay. We also loved the trio of sauces that came with (although the green one was too spicy for me)! read more

I have only gotten take-out from here so I cannot attest to the dine-in experience, but that being said...WOW. We have raved about this place to friends and ordered food for visiting family members from here and everyone has loved it. I had never had Peruvian food before and if it's all this good, I was seriously missing out. The most recent time we ordered from there we got: chicken causa, lomo saltado, frijol con seco, taxi tacu con lomo, and risotto huancaina con lomo saltado. It was all amazing! We just moved away from Roanoke but I will gladly recommend this to anyone visiting or living in the area. The sauces that come with the entrees are just really spectacular and I miss them!! read more

Food was excellent. Service was great. Wonderfully developed flavors. Different from the Latino flavors we are used to in Texas, but delicious. read more

Great place in what appears to be a historic building. Nice layout with booths along the walls and table in the center, all clean and modern throughout. Two attentive staff backed each other up flawlesly, but not intrusive. Food is authentic and true to culture with decent portions and fresh ingredients. Wife had the green pasta with very delicious steak, I had the seafood pasta with great sauce. Everybody looked happy and attended, from the single diner, the date couple, to the family of ten. Nothin wrong to not give them a 5, I'd be a regular if I lived there. read more

The restaurant itself is so charming, the decor is great and very welcoming. The staff is so helpful and told us what they recommended since we'd never had Peruvian food. Service was fast and the food was truly amazing. For anyone looking to try anything new I would recommend! read more

I would give this place 3 and 1/2 stars if I could. The chicken entero and lomo saltado were AMAZING. the service was mediocre as well as the ceviche. We did take out and they didn't give us half of our order when we picked up. So I had to call and get the rest of our food. read more

We found this on a trip, and since we had another favorite Peruvian restaurant, decided to give it a try. It was excellent! Delicious food, great choices and wonderful desserts (flan and alfajores). I had the aji de gallina (chicken fillets in a creamy sauce with rice and potato) and my wife the quarter roasted chicken with salad and black beans from their lunch menu. Que delicioso! read more

The service was abysmal, the table sticky, the glasses of water tasted like dirty water, the yucca appetizer was microwaved but most of it was stone cold. The entrees were good, but not enough to compensate for the rest. read more

Tasty unique dishes not found elsewhere in Roanoke. Friendly service. Roasted chicken and sea bass with cream sauce were incredible.

WHAT A HIDDEN TREASURE!! Man, I wish this place was in DC. Stopped by along the way and found one of my favorite restaurants in Roanoke of all places. Happened to watch a food tour video of Lima Peru on Youtube. There was this traditional yellow pepper sauce that some restaurants put on everything and it looked really good and I thought I would have to ho to Lima for it but they had it here and it was excellent. Srimp appetizer was so well prepared and balanced along with said sauce, I could have eaten just that. Octopus was expertly prepared, not chewy but also not too soft with a very complimentary tangy sauce. I am almost always disappointed by ceviche but I was very pleasantly surprised by how nice theirs was. Fish was clearly fresh, not stale hidden by sauce. Lomo saltado was so tender and well seasoned. And the FLAN was by far the best I ever had. Normally, I like to have just 1 or 2 bites max of desert but I could not stop eating their flan. I could eat that every dayand I don't even have a sweet tooth. All this and incredibly, everything was unbelievably low priced. The octopus appetizer was almost the size of a main course where I live and it was only $16. The only thing that was not my favorite was their chinese friend rice with seafood on top. Seafood on top was ok and fried rice was fine, but overall this dish was nothing special. Now I need to find more excuses to drive by Roanoke. read more

Definitely a "hit or miss" kind of place...woefully my visit was definitely a miss. Food was very bland and since I thought I was ordering takeout but instead was using the near impossible to side-step DOORDASH option, was over-priced. Went in 2 hours after lunch on a weekday and service was slow as hell This was the downtown Roanoke location. Not sure how the other location might be read more

Ive never really had Peruvian food but wanted to try something new. I had the bistec a lo pobre and it was perfectly cooked and delicious. Flan for dessert, also delicious. Service was great! read more

I went last night for the first time and was not disappointed! The food was fresh, portions were large, and the Pisco sours were the best I have ever had! The atmosphere was modern and fun, with a diverse crowd and selection of foods. Bathrooms were clean and staff were all following COVID guidelines. I will definitely be back! read more

Great food and service!!! Thank you for being there and bringing Peruvian food for us to try. read more

Despite calling ahead and asking about vegetarian options ; when they informed that they have a couple of dishes and waitress taking an order for vegetarians ; the manager comes back after 15 minutes and says ' I don't know why that person didn't tell you but we have no vegetarian options today. I know you called us yesterday and I said we have them but now we don't '. We had a family visiting from Atlanta and wanted to spend a special time with them but after waiting for an hour ; we had to walk out with 3 hungry kids on a Friday evening . This is the most terrible experience we had at a restaurant in Roanoke . Never going back there again . read more

The food it's amazing in this place. However, for the togo picarones the syrup should go in a separate container and not on the picarones. I got 2 orders for my kids and I drove far to get home and found later that my order was ruined. I should check my order but it's common sense not to donut the way it was give it to me. The issue may be the waitress who is not peruvian and needs more training and knowledge of the food. The pollo a la brasa is no recommended either, it's very plain of flavor. read more

Yum! We checked out this spot on a whim and it was very good. We had the tuna tartar appetizer, some drinks, and a couple of entrees between two people and it was more than enough. The mojito was perfect... enough mint and lime to make it taste authentic. The pisco sour was also delicious and strong. We had the tacu tacu and some of the chicken for entrees. Tacu Tacu was amazing... full of cilantro flavor and served with delicious baked rice. Our only complaint was that at lunch it seemed as if they had one server and albeit she was doing a great job, she was pretty much alone on the floor and could have used a hand or two. Perhaps it was just a busy day for the restaurant. Either way, we'll definitely be back when we're in the area. read more

Mixed drinks were just juice. ordered a shot of tequila to help. bill came and they charged me $9.95 for a shot that the menu said was $7.95. I confronted them. They said since I drank it, I had to pay the inflated price. I explained that in America it is against the law to charge contrary to advertised/menu price. TacuTacu con Lomo was tough, inedible meat. Spit most of it out. $78 for worst meal. Could have been more satisfied going to Taco Bell. read more

Loved it! I do love Peruvian food, because it's not always easy to find, but a good Peruvian food is amazing! I had sautéed beef with rice and chocolate muss for desert. Both had very rich flavors with hints of lemon and incredibly delicious. Guys were friendly and super cool. If only one thing I could recommend is to add some colors in exterior - like rugs or some art. Peruvian culture is very unique! read more

Best Peruvian food that I have ever had!!! My boyfriend and I (to this day) rave about Inka.

On Tuesday, we made an online reservation for Friday, and called yesterday and today (Friday) to check on it, having not heard back from them. No answer to their phones, no updates on their website, still no response to our online reservation. We pulled up and saw they were closed, but no one told us. I am not pleased. read more
