El Inka Peruvian Cuisine Burlington

This place is a gem! Excellent seafood and ceviche! Whole Red Snapper in seafood broth sauce with calamari and mussels was a grand dish for 2. Beef short rib tasted phenomenal. So many different options of appetizers, soups, and mains, all with unique components and traditional Peruvian flavours. We will be back to try different style dishes, there are so many! Some amazing cocktails, too. Cynthia, our server, took great care of us. Highly recommended and different than the usual.

This place is a gem. The staff was helpful, super friendly, and welcoming. It was probably one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in a long while. We had a plate of yuca fries that was fried to perfection served with a lovely creamy sauce. We also had grilled octopus which was so well prepared and garnished to perfection. We had the stuff avocado salad, an excellent choice. The lomo saltado was the main we shared. It is an excellent dish to start with if you are new to Peruvian food. We also shared a pitcher of passion fruit juice, and that was a lovely alternative to alcohol. I highly recommend this place.

One of my favorite restaurants in Ontario. Everything I have had here has been great. Not good. GREAT! The pisco sours are potent and creamy. The lamb seco is delicious. My favorite would have to be the beef rib seco because it’s so fatty and delicious. The lomo saltado is a great starter dish. The jalea is great for a large group to share and everything is fried to perfection! The service here is always fantastic and they are willing to answer any questions about the menu. The latte to end the day or evening is just right. Give this restaurant a visit, you will not be disappointed!

Usually when I get to a restaurant, I can tell from the decor that the food will be over-priced, however, El Inka proved me wrong. The food is priced well, based on flavour, service and the beautiful folkloric themed decor. A genuinely Peruvian experience. The staff was well versed on all foods, answered every question, and we were served in a timely manner.

El Inka is a hidden treasure, that I am so grateful to have discovered. Our server David was so attentive, friendly and helpful with making our food choices. The flavors will amaze any taste bud. PABLO the chef a true genius. Every dish was better than the next. The grilled octopus!!! Like no other Octopua I have ever tasted. Their homemade Passion fruit ice cream, made me feel like I was in South America. My friends and I will definitely dine here again.

Updated review, We returned to celebrate another friend's birthday, and once again, service was exceptional. We shared a few appetizers and each ordered different dishes—all of which were incredibly tasty and full of flavor. I also appreciated that the owner personally reached out to address a previous concern I had. It’s clear they genuinely care about their customers' experience.

I recently visited a Peruvian restaurant for the first time and was wonderfully surprised by the experience. With no prior expectations, I found myself thoroughly impressed from start to finish. The restaurant is very spacious, offering a comfortable and inviting atmosphere that is perfect for both family outings and date nights. The ambiance strikes the right balance between lively and cozy, making it an ideal spot for any occasion. Our server, Miguel, was fantastic. He provided excellent recommendations and was incredibly patient, ensuring we had a memorable dining experience. The service overall was exceptional, contributing greatly to our positive impression. As for the food, it was nothing short of amazing. Each dish was a delightful explosion of flavors, showcasing the rich culinary traditions of Peru. The drinks were equally impressive, complementing the meal perfectly. To top it all off, the dessert was even better, a perfect end to a fantastic meal. The quality of the food was superb, and the portions were generous, offering great value. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be coming back.
