Reviews for Inka Grill Peruvian Cuisine Roanoke VA in Roanoke, VA

The food was absolutely amazing. The only reason it loses a star is because a couple dishes were kind of disappointing. The... chicken causa wasn't what we expected, possibly our fault, but we expected something hot not cold. The flavors were decent wejust didn't love it. The other deductions were for Hershey chocolate syrup on the passion fruit mousse plate. Just leave it off.The mousse was absolutely wonderful and I suggest it as your dessert. The flan was also very good, but had some hard pieces thatwere waxy on the outside. We also really enjoyed the tacu tacu con lomo and the Pescado a lo macho was our favorite entree. Foran appetizer you have to get the leche de tigre! It was sooooo good. Easily the best ceviche I've had state side. Read more

Our first time here. It won't be out last. The service was right. The food tasted great (we both had seafood dishes, mine was in... an awesome cream sauce and my wife's was fried). The cookie for dessert was a great way to finish the meal. Read more

Passing through town, we are stoked that we stopped. Octopus Appetizer was great, ceviche sampler was tart and great, and the... fried plantain side and beans side we also great. Booths and tables are cozy. Yum yum. Read more

Tried Peruvian cuisine for the first time. The place is nice and has an upscale vibe to it. There was a small wait list. The... menu is fish food heavy and has good descriptions of each dish on the menu so folks unfamiliar with the language can understand.We had a variety of dishes and ceviches stood out, they are must have. Folks who don't like sea food would be disappointed andvegan and vegetarian folks have little to no options (1-2 potato based dishes). However our server was helpful enough to submeat in one dish for a vegetarian friend. The staff is helpful and polite. The food quality is kind of okay. The deserts werenice, I would recommend the original Peruvian ones. One complaint was that the service was a bit slow, but nothing that was abig deal Read more

After eating here a few nights ago, my boyfriend insisted I come back with him. I was very pleased!! Casual dining experience.... The inside is nice! Booths and tables and a few outdoor spots. Each item we got tonight was seafood oriented. Delicious musclesfor a starter. They were so fresh tasting! I got a fried fish platter that came with an absolutely incredible house made tartarsauce. He got a rice dish with muscles and other seafood, covered in a delicious savory sauce. They have a large cocktail menuand several dessert options. We had 2 entrees, an appetizer and two sodas for $50! Read more

This place was really good- but not quite 5 stars. Wish I could do a 4.5 star rating. They were short staffed the night we... were there. That being said, the waitress did a great job under pressure. I’m trying to review this with that in mind but Ithought it was worth noting it took about 40mins before we could order our food but only about 15mins to receive our food. Asfor the food, it was really good! Almost perfect but the steak was a little too charred. This could have been because my wifeordered it medium well; but it was a pretty strong char on it. That dish was called, “ Lingüini verde con bistec”($16.95)and the pasta pesto was amazing! It redeemed the steak char. The second dish was a seafood soup called, “Parihuela”($16.95) and was honestly the greatest seafood soup I’ve ever had. It contains a good variety of seafood. The last dish wetried was the, “1/4 chicken” ($6.95). For the price, it’s hard to beat! This had a delicious skin and was cooked great. Itcomes with two sides. It was supposed to come with some dipping sauces but did not; that was disappointing as a saucefan. Overall, it was a good meal and the price was alright too. To get to 5 stars, they need to get more waiters, fix the char (burn) on the steaks, and remember the sauces. If you are that short staffed just shut down tables instead of making people waitso long. I’d definitely eat here again! Read more

We went here for dinner on a Saturday evening. Everything we tasted was absolutely delicious and we would be excited to go back... and try other dishes. The appetizers were the most interesting menu items for us. Our service was a little slow but this wasprobably since it was quite busy and there was a larger table next to us. However, food came quickly and we were attended towhen we asked. The prices were very reasonable as well! Read more

Our first time at Inka Grill was absolutely delicious and a welcome bit of variety in the area. We started with the shrimp and... calamari app followed up with the seafood/beef chaufas and a side of perfectly fried plantains. All of it was fantastic exceptfor the chocopiso dessert that they were sadly out of. Guess we'll have to go back, but thankfully Rookies was right next doorfor ice cream sandwiches. Read more
