Inca Social

Overall the experience there’s amazing, everyone was very attentive and the atmosphere is incredible such a nice place to be around as it sets the mood. Our server Julian was such a delight. He came to our table with such an uplifting attitude and a great smile. Made sure to check on us and even made some fun comments here and there. Really tied into the experience and ofc we can’t forget about the food. 10/10 highly recommended as me and my friend got all three courses and non disappointed and presentation was wonderful. Would highly recommend this place

Osmar was excellent! So knowledgeable & on top of things. Amazing food - fresh & reflects Peru's unique fusion of flavors. Lovely sushi, comforting ají de gallina, umami-packed lomo saltado, perfect textures, etc. I'd never had causa before but liked their veg version. A friend recs their sushi w/huancaína, which we'll do next time. Fun atmosphere. Fair prices for the area. Def recommend! *Sorry my camera is a potato! All was gorgeous in person (& tasty).

I may say that Inca Social is the best Peruvian restaurant in the area! I got brunch yesterday and was absolutely insane! I ordered Chicharrón Benedict. Was fresh, crunchy, tasty and delicious. The atmosphere is amazing, great music and you can find TV and watch Football games too. Nicole was my server and she was very nice, polite, friendly and she also recommended me this brunch! I definitely recommend this place and look for Nicole, she gives the best service ever!

So this was my first trip to Washington DC and although I thought I would like the area, I found I like it way more than expected. And with that, we discovered Inca Social as recommended by my daughter. I should probably know what kind of food is served here, but I don’t. I do know it’s good and the restaurant is huge so it’s lively and fun for dinner. Service was great and we all found excellent choices on the menu. I might have had one too many drinks because I don’t recall much about dinner. But never mind all that, just give it try yourself. Michael Delehanty Compass Real Estate

I loved the Red Snapper dish I had the 1st night. I loved the place so much that I came back a 2nd night. They have Peruvian style sushi there that I thought was pretty cool. Minus 1 star because all the tables feel sticky no matter how clean they are. I'm convinced that the staff cleaned the tables. I kind of don't like having 3 different waiters. I prefer 1 waiter the whole time.

We had an extremely disappointing experience here. It has gone way down hill. The entrance was so dark it looked closed. After being seated, we waited 10 minutes before anyone even approached us. Our server took our order and never returned—no check-ins, no drinks, no sauces. The runner ended up doing everything. The server only came back to ask for payment and submitted his own review on the device, which is completely unacceptable. The pulpo anticuchero was tough, old-tasting, and inedible, and we had no way to notify the kitchen because the server ignored us the entire time. Overall, terrible service and disappointing food. I hope management addresses this, because the experience left a very bad impression.

Have been wanting to check out Inca Social for a minute. When I saw their post about hosting an alpaca happy hour, I had to make plans to go. Every month during the summer, Inca Social brings in alpacas for a few hours to interact with patrons. Of course it’s a popular draw, so expect it to be crowded! I purchased what I thought were tickets online because I read it “sells out” quickly. I was able to get two tickets for what were glasses of beer @ the bar. You can also make reservations to dine in. It was a little confusing when we arrived, about the tickets. The staff didn’t all seem to know or understand about them, but we just went with the flow. Went on a Thursday night for happy hour, which is from 5:30p-7:30p and it was PACKED! Luckily, we managed to find seats at the bar after scanning the space! It took a little while to order drinks and apps because it was so busy. Once we flagged down someone, we were able to place an order. Not being beer drinkers, we paid our drinks forward to folks sitting next to us at the bar and ordered the Passion Pisco Sour in stead. It was delicious! Inca Social has a pretty extensive drinks menu that includes various versions of the Peruvian cocktail, Pisco Sour. The menu is filled with classic Peruvian dishes like different types of ceviche or causas, among other things. The atmosphere at Inca Social is vibrant. In addition to the bar and dining room, there’s a sushi bar in the back of the restaurant and an outdoor patio and bar area on the front of the restaurant. Now, the fun part —The alpacas were on the patio with their owner, where patrons are able to interact with the alpacas by feeding and petting them. They are very calm and social and don’t seem to mind crowds or multiple people interacting with them at once. Their owner has tote bags filled with hay for the alpacas to eat while people are interacting with them. The hay is on the ground for the alpacas to eat, so they will frequently lean down to eat the hay. People are also picking up hay to feed the alpacas. You can take photos with them. There was a constant flow of people petting and taking photos and videos with the alpacas. They were very popular!! I feel for the people dining on the patio because it was so packed that they seem to barely have room to enjoy their meal. All and all, everyone seemed to be enjoying their experience interacting with the alpacas. Now the food, we ordered chicken causas and chicken empanadas and both were good. We didn’t realize that the causas were served cold and the chicken was more like a chicken salad, so we ordered the empanadas for something warm to eat. We would definitely go back even if the alpacas weren’t there. We recommend checking out the Inca Social social media for the latest. They seem to always be hosting someone special at both or either location. For the social media folks, Inca Social has a few IG moments pre-set for your photos including the floral backdrop with swings by the bar and a green wall on the outdoor patio.

The food was delicious. Osmar attention was on top, he was very courteous and attentive. He went above and beyond by not only covering the bar but helping us deciding what food to order.

Inca Social is such a great find, especially during happy hour! Their margarita deal is fantastic--flavorful, refreshing, and reasonably priced (only $3 on the night I went). I also tried the veggie sushi, which was fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with great flavors. The service here is another highlight. Our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal.

Inca Social was such a hit a few years ago, but the quality of the food slowly declined... As a peruvian, the food was delicious and amazing with its unique twists like the sushi and apps but in my latest visit, it delivered poorly. The arroz con pollo aka arroz verde was extremely watery? with barely any flavor. The salmon con risotto was dry and no flavor again, and the tallarines verdes was way too watery with the lack of flavor as well... Maybe go? But its either a hit or miss. Aside from all the mishaps, the local (restaurant) is decorated wonderfully with a cute backdrop at the front!

Happy Hour: Thursdays are Ladies Night! $3 Margaritas Food: love the food here! I had the pork tacos and the chicken sliders. Both weee delicious. Service: attentive servers Atmosphere: LIVELY!!! So keep that in mind that you may need to speak up during the rush dinner time. Ambiance: there are 2 swings with a beautiful backdrop for your IG photos. Super cute. Tip: The Arlington location is bigger than the Vienna one. Keep that in mind if you have a large crowd. Both have fantastic staff!!!

Placed an order to go on a Sunday night with a 30 minute estimate for pick-up. TL;DR: (+) would recommend empanadas, (-) temperature is inconsistent, and (-) had a bad entree This was my first time trying Inca! Inca is a large restaurant with ample seating indoors and outdoors. I ordered take out so I can't speak about the service, but I can say my entree was luke warm when I arrived to pick it up exactly at the recommended time. Pros: The beef empanada was delicious, warm, large, and perfectly made. They provide ample sauces for those who need extra. The churros were amazing - not too dry and not at all stale. And the chocolate sauce? Sublime. Also, the lomo was perfectly medium rare. Cons: The chicken empanada was fairly bland (so perhaps it's a safe bet for those who are less adventurous). The entree was luke warm, which was incredibly disappointing. To add on, the dish was overall lackluster and drowning in an oil. The meat had a smell that was very off putting - I'm not sure if it was the dish the meat was cooked in or the oil itself, but the flavor and the stench was awful. It was a real shame because the meat was a gorgeous cut and cooked perfectly. All in all, I'm hoping it was just one bad dish/experience and I plan to visit again soon, ideally for happy hour.

I've had Inca social a bunch of times now and always have a decent meal! Sometimes the food is better than others. This was one of those times, especially as they had some new menu items. We got the bao buns to start, one pork and one chicken. Then we got the spicy chicken sandwich and a season fried rice special. The food was pretty good, everything was flavorful, no major complaints. The ambiance is super fun and the waiter was really nice and gave good suggestions. It's a fun option in the neighborhood with a wide range of good food!

A highlight in Rosslyn! They have a fun happy hour deal and a surprisingly well designed patio that makes you forget about the traffic beside you. I recommend the Ceviche Tacos and the Chaufa Fried Rice

Our food was good. I tried cow heart the first time as part of an appetizer and was pleasantly surprised that the texture and flavor were good. I also had a steak (bistec) and it was also good. Service was friendly. It is a bit loud in the restaurant, making it a little hard to talk but it was still an enjoyable experience. I did go on a Thursday and they advised it was a special price for ladies during happy hour however they changed us for the regular happy hour price instead, still a decent deal but I do wish they honored the advertised special.

Love the food and the happy hour deals here. The margaritas are fantastic and strong. We always get the ceviche and lomo saltado, they're consistently delicious. Great atmosphere, for either date night or a dinner out with friends. The restaurant can get quite busy during peak times, so service might be a little slower.

This place is phenomenal! I am an out of town guest, visiting a college friend who speaks really highly about this place. I usually am extra skeptical when somebody speaks too highly of a restaurant. This place lived up the hype. The restaurant was super accommodating to every request we had. To start the service was amazing-- quick, attentive and knowledgeable. They knew what I could and couldn't eat with my shrimp allergy. Everything we ordered was delicious. I would def recommend the sushi (mangos and plantains ). I will say the restaurant is very lively -- especially since Copa America was on tv. It was a little difficult to hear especially with my friends mom. Overall, I would gladly eat here again! Amazing job!!

Came here on a date and the appetizers were good and I really love the decor on the inside. The music was a vibe. The service was alright, we ordered steak but got chicken, then we told our server and they said we ordered chicken but we don't ever get lomo saltado with chicken cause it tastes bland to us, so we get it with steak. Once we explained it to the staff they said they would get it fixed, Which took awhile because our server didn't really pay attention to us. But after that the service was better and the manger even came by to apologize.

I love it here!! The service is always on point and the food even better! I usually get the tallarín verde with chicken or steak and it's good everytime! It's perfect seasoning and always cooked well.

TikTok got me to try a restaurant again! I went on a rainy week day and the place was totally dead, but our server was nice and explained the menu to us. I'm not the best at reading Spanish, so it may be my fault; but the appetizers we got weren't as flavorful as I had hoped. The saltados was really tasty though! And it was on special! I'd love to go back and try their brunch- it looks great!

What a cool place located in the Clarendon district. Big, bright, and lively. Inca Social is a breath of fresh air! Extremely unique, which fits right in line with the other restaurants that adorn Clarendon. Once you enter, if you were a little sleepy, you'll wake right up..LOL! Like I said, bright, busy, neon lighting throughout, swings, and even ivy covered walls for all your IG influencers! The menu has a nice Peruvian twist, and most meals are tapas style. We ordered Tumi sushi roll, mussels, jumbo fried shrimp, Shrimp Causa, and the Inca Seafood Rice. Everything was very good. The mussels were more of a Ceviche which I'm not a huge fan of, but they were tasty! Inca makes my favorite mixed drink to perfection "The Caipirinha". After a couple of those, I had to wait to drive the 15min to my house.. Strongggggggg!! Inca Social, it was my first time, but definitely not my last!

Inca Social has to have some of the best happy hour deals in the area so for that reason alone, I'd recommend stopping by. Great selection of drinks at a reasonable price point (compared to across the river in D.C.). This is also one of those rare spots where we had our server ask us if we wanted any other HH deals before it ended. Most places are happy to just get to the end of happy hour in order to get back to full priced menu. 5-star service. Atmosphere inside during happy hour can be a bit loud especially since there is music being played simultaneously. Nothing bad just a note. Overall, the food was very good and the highlight for me were the wings in green sauce. These were so damn good I'll probably just be back for them. I thought the bread that came with the octopus ceviche was a bit stale but. The ceviche's themselves were made to order at the sushi bar so you can see what you are getting. Hard not to appreciate the transparency there. Main dishes were also very tasty (not pictured was too hungry). Compared to other Peruvian food in the area (Pisco y Nazca, Causa, EPR, Super Pollo, etc) I think this place falls somewhere in the middle.

I came here with a friend for their happy hour. The food was good, and we got a cocktail and beer. The place appeared clean and well kept. Except I had almost finished my Inca Lager when I saw particles floating around from the keg lines. Who knows how long it had been since they cleaned the lines, but regardless, the yeast/mold/bacteria buildup in the lines ended up in my glass. I showed the server... who acknowledge it... and then offered me another beer. (This is me sighing.) He then talked with the manager, who then did not close down the taps for cleaning. Instead they kept serving beer. No apology and I still was charged for the drink. Gross.

Let me start by stating that the Customer Service was amazing. As soon as we enter, we were greeted with smiles and willingness to get us a table. The manager at one point helped out in pouring and refilling our water glasses. I would say that that's a five star rating for me. Food was served immediately. Presentation was amazing. I could not rave enough about this place. Parking is just across the street. It is a block away from the metro station. Happy hour choices were ample. This is a good place to relax and have a happy hour get together.

Came here for a quick happy hour after work with some girl friends. Food was amazing and easy to share. Drinks were very tasty and affordable ($3 margaritas during happy hour, followed by $6 margaritas for lady's night; many fun tropical flavors to choose from) so we had several. Busy, loud, fun! Street parking was easy to find with affordable fees, and there's garages close by, too.

The food here is so refreshing. Served authentically, the preparation of food made me feel like I was eating in Peru. Service was quick and the waitress came to check on us quite a few times. For the amount of food, I thought it was fair for the price especially considering the location. The decor is very 'instagrammable' and they even have a swing towards the front that you can take a picture on/with. The layout is a bit more modern and seems to cater to being able to have room to dance as there is more open space towards the front and tables and booths towards the back.

KIDS FRIENDLY! Great food! The kids' chicken tender were cut like chicharron and so delicious. Arris con mariscos was like a paella. Fresh and crispy yucca. Lively and friendly ambiance. We loved this restaurant!!

I love Inca Social. I had been hearing about it for a while before it came to Arlington and I'm so glad it did. I've been a few times and really like this place. Service is great. Everyone is so friendly and my last server was especially kind when he could see I was having a bad day. I really appreciate that. Inca Social is really cute inside and has a nice patio. The vibe is so fun. Also, I love that you can get the full menu, not just brunch, on the weekends. And they have happy hour, which is awesome. I love everything I've tried. Their lomo saltado is clutch when my anemia is in full swing. And their arroz con pollo is so flavorful and the portion is huge. Inca balls make a great appetizer. Drinks are on point and very strong. I really need to try their ceviche and sushi. Inca Social is definitely a go-to of mine and I highly recommend.

Location: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Food / price: 3/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Came as a party of 8. Service was slow and the place was pretty loud. Food was just okay. Definitely a spot for the location and drinks.

Hip and cool Peruvian restaurant in the Courthouse/Rosslyn area. I've been to the one near mosaic district a few times, but this one is a bit closer to me. My overall experience was very good as I expected. The restaurant itself is pretty spacious with a lot of dining room seating, bar seating, sushi bar seating, and an open kitchen. The aesthetic, decor, and ambiance were all great, however, the place can get pretty loud due to how open the restaurant is. Service was efficient and friendly. I ordered the Inca Chicken dish and two margaritas. The margarita happy hour is one of the better ones I know of in the area. The food came out quickly and was very flavorful especially paired with the quinoa. Portions were on the smaller side considering the price, but still found my portion filling. Would definitely come here again. There's so many different menu items worth trying!

Now, I can recommend other Peruvians this restaurant, I approved it as a Peruvian. I spend my birthday some days ago and my friends order: Lomo Saltado, Anticuchos, Causas, Bistec con tallarines verdes and they all loved it. The taste was really good. Just as the desserts and the drinks. I will totally come back and recommend more people. The service was great, Ms. Paola if I am not mistaken her name was really kind to us. It was my first time as some of my friends here and the service was awesome. The place is also really nice, you can take nice pictures with your friends. It's clean which is great! I am so happy that more people can try Peru's food and have a good time. Thank you.

The food was decent. A little pricey depending on what you order. It's a big restaurant that's modern but casual. Came here for their Margarita Thursdays happy hour (3-7PM) which I would highly recommend. It's $3 per margarita for the ladies. I was concerned that at that price point they would water it down like at certain bars/clubs but they definitely did not. The margs were delicious and strong. Would come back for them!

The service is a 5 star. The ambiance is absolutely amazing. It has a photo wall and selfie machine. The food.... Well we wanted to love it but it was a 3. The steak was not tender. We ordered at least 4 people ordered it with different type ( medium, medium well, etc) They all can out the same. The Inca Burger had off putting flavor. The scallop pater is not work it. The scallops are the size of a dime. The parmasan and ceviche ones were delicious. The tomato base scallop had the same off putting taste. We would definitely try it again. However. we would not order those entrées or that appetizer. I am sure this place is a solid four or five. The lemonadeb was amazingwhich was made with limes. There is free parking in the back

This place makes me feel in Perú I love it I ate anticuchos, ceviche ( tres tipos) and chicha morada, and they have a good service

This is the best happy hour spot in Arlington. I've come here on many different occasions and the food and service has always been great. I came for my birthday this year with some friends. On thursdays they have $2 margaritas for ladies! The happy hour food is very reasonably priced as well. The restaurant is always crowded so I would recommend making a reservation. It's definitely a very lively spot in Arlington, but a must-try!

Dinner is always a treat at Inca Social. Stopped by last night with my wife and brother in law. The restaurant was busy but the service never deteriorated. Our server was attentive made sure we had everything we needed. The food came out timely and it was delicious. The restaurant is very well designed and decorated. You want good authentic Peruvian food make sure to stop by!

Very instagram-ish style restaurant. Street parking is available, and there are plenty of garages around just in case. The food servings were very large, two people could honestly split one meal. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is due to the waiter/hostess miscommunication about bring in your own personal cake/cupcakes for special occasions and also the waitress rudely talking to one of our dinner guests for asking to take back a meal they didnt know contained octopus. She claimed they did in fact know because it was in the name of the meal ( keep in mind the guest was over 70+ years of age). It didnt matter anyway, it could've been handled better. We were originally told when asked if it was possible for the kitchen to refrigerate our birthday cake that it'll be a charge for two opts: 1. $10 Just for us to keep them refrigerated 2. $20 just for them refrigerate AND Serve We denied both and just kept them at the table, once everyone in our party finished eating- we started to give out of own dessert we brought in. Our waiter rushed over to our table and told us she will be charging us $20 because we decided to serve out own dessert. WHICH WAS NOT STATED ORIGINALLY WHEN ASKED. Because it was a special occasion, I didn't make a big deal but it definitely effected her tip and their overall review. Super dissatisfied with how they handled both situations. Wont be back.

We were a large party for a birthday so we had a bit of a time crunch and wish I had gone over the reviews a bit more. The special Seafood Risotto dish looked great and my friends raved about their pasta dishes. We did have two hairs found in a drink and an entree so that kinda off put the mood. The service was attentive and the apps were pretty decent. The restaurant was cute and I liked that the kitchen was right behind us and we dould hear and smell the food being cooked fresh.

Where do I start! So this is one of the few places that I will drive into Virginia for food and drinks! It is aesthetically pleasing, welcoming, and the menu is amazing! You can eat at the bar, a table, booth, or even outside on the patio! I've come here plenty of times and the first few times I couldn't stop ordering appetizers! Ha! My favorites are the ceviche tropical, rocotto buffalo wings, and anticuchos! Speaking of anticuchos, don't be scared of the beef heart! Try the sampler so you can try all the options! For beverages I love love love the Passion Sour! I also enjoy the Pisco Sour and the Inca Margarita! I had the pleasure of trying a few entrees as well. The chaufa fried rice (seafood) is so good! The arroz con pollo is great as well. You really can't go wrong with a menu so colorful and flavorful! I didn't even mention that there was live music during my last visit!

Great decor and vibe inside, very cool and modern designs with neon lamps and funky patterns. Service was fast and friendly. This place would be very cool for college or young adults to hang out. We stopped in for lunch on a week day and everything tasted good, but I did think the prices were a little high for cocktails and the meal.

This place was so delicious. I was craving Peruvian food and this hit the spot. I went on a Saturday night and it was very lively. The place is really nice and the music was great. Our server came over promptly and took our orders and she was great the entire time. We ordered the sushi to share, which was good. I don't remember the names of what we ordered, but it was heaven on earth. The meat, the fries, and the green pasta were all tasteful. Finally we ended with the churros which were perfect to end the night. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back!

Very friendly staff & every dish I've tried is delicious. best Peruvian restaurant in the DMV

If you're looking for a place with great happy hour deals and enjoy Peruvian/Asian fusion cuisine in a lively atmosphere with cool decor, look no further than Inca Social. The Wednesday special was $10 Chicken saltado, which was a stir-fry of chicken, onions, and tomatoes in a salty sauce, served with fries and rice. This was my first time trying it and it was very good, a ton of food for the price as well! We also took advantage of their happy hour, which is from 3pm-7pm every weekday. We got $5 beers & wine, $6 cocktails and small plates. The margarita and the Chicha Rum on happy hour were decent, but definitely pretty sweet and a little light on the booze, but that's expected at the price. The service was solid, our waiter helped a squeeze in one last drink order before happy hour ended which was clutch.

Upon arriving at the restaurant early on a Saturday evening, I was informed that all tables were reserved for a soccer game event. Consequently, I reluctantly opted to sit at the bar to satisfy my hunger, despite my preference for a table. Although the bartender was amiable, service was notably delayed. I ordered Arroz con Pollo, beef empanadas, and a club soda, refraining from alcohol. Following my meal, I promptly settled my bill and departed, feeling uncomfortable with the bar seating arrangement, especially since I observed several unreserved tables in the restaurant.

I was so surprised by this chain! It was my first time having Peruvian food and I was wowed by this lomo saltado dish. The balance of fries, rice and meat was great. We ordered the ceviche platter which was so yum. There's no other place in the area I'd go to for ceviche.

The food here was just okay. Jalea should have lime juice and onions and there was no lime juice and hardly any onion on top of the food. We asked for lime but it wasn't enough. The seafood was good though and the fry was delicious. The lomo saltado however was also just mediocre. There was very little sauce and very little beef. Sushi was meh. The passionfruit sauce was the best part but the rice was mushy and all of the flavors melted together and not in a good way. The fresh passionfruit juice was delicious. The cocktails looked so good and the vibe of the place is amazing. It's beautifully decorated and the music is fantastic. I sat at my table for almost 10 minutes before I was greeted and our server came to take my drink order. Drinks (which was just juice) took forever, and we didn't have silverware by the time our food did arrive. We had to wait a while for silverware too. Overall, I expected the food to be on point from start to end and the service to be much better. I would maybe go back on a weekday when it's less busy.

Nice spot for happy hour with lots of high top bar seating (there's no outdoor seating). The happy hour menu is quite limited. The mashed potato Veggie Causa $6 were fun to try and flavorful from the beet and corn and sauce. The Red Sangria was a bit dry and a bit surprised that it wasn't part of the happy hour menu. The Caipirinha is sweet and tasted like a spiced limeade and also not on happy hour. I wasn't a big fan of the thick steak fries. The Veggie Burger piqued my curiosity and will have to try it next time! Wish there were more cocktails and food offered during happy hour and vegetarian items on the menu.

This spot feels like a hit or miss for me. The first time I came here my food was so salty I couldn't eat it. I ordered the Arroz Con Pollo. I had to ask them to re-make it and the salt level still was potent. My date said he couldn't even eat it. My dates food was delicious!! The empanada was too greasy for both our liking. Well, because it's such a cute aesthetic spot I decided to try again. The food this time around was bangin!!! I ordered the Inca chicken. If you want something clean, light, but filling I highly recommend. I'd come back and get that again. The service took forever to get us drinks and place our order. When the food did come out we didn't have utensils. My date had to chase down someone hahaha. He loved his food. I'm glad we both enjoyed our food.

This place was on the list for a while so we decided to stop by for happy hour. The decorations were ADORABLE, inside and outside (which is where we sat). Make reservations if you can, the sun is out and people are ready to eat and drink! You only have a 2 hour limit for your reservation, so please keep that in mind. Shoutout to Jen and Valentina! They were amazing and soooo sweet! Here's what we ordered: * Margarita - pretty good, slightly tasted watered down but was still a decent drink * Chicha Rum - it was really good!! & came out purple lol * Chicken Tacos - my friend said they had a little kick, but was good * Empanadas- we got the beef, which also had carrots and peas inside. Delicious!!! * Shrimp Tacos - I didn't know what to expect, but they had a good taste! * Fun Fries - not sure of the sauce on them, but they were just really good French fries lol * Tumi Roll - B O M B. Simple as that * Chicken Wings - ask for them crispy, they weren't nasty, but needed more seasoning. They have two other types and I would probably try the Buffalo next time. Over all, this place gets

This was my second time there in about 7 months. The first time was really good and I was impressed with the menu. The second time was not great at all. I got the mixto ceviche sampler. The only thing good in this was the fish. The mixto included shrimp, squid, and fish. The sampler included 3 flavors of ceviche. However, it wasn't very mixto. There was exactly 1 shrimp in each flavor (so 3 total) and the squid was all rings no tentacles. This means frozen and not fresh at all. I wouldn't even try to eat one bc it looked like frozen bait to me. The fish in the ceviche was good but this was a giant waste of money. The bowls of ceviche didn't even come with anything like plantain chips or anything which I haven't experienced anywhere else. The draft beer was served in a gross hard plastic cup. We were sitting inside and it was not happy hour hours. Not sure why a draft came in a cheap and gross hard plastic cup. The second beer was a bottle to avoid the plastic cups and it was served with the cap still on it. Not a huge deal bc it was twist off but like not really supposed to be served that way either.... I ordered a club soda and was given a Perrier. Not exactly the same thing... and it feels like it was obviously done like that to ring up the bill. Overall- not worth it. The actual server/service was good and he was really busy.

Lively place right in the heart of Rosslyn. I went for a weeknight dinner with a co-worker and the restaurant was fairly crowded with a hustle & bustle feel. Service was friendly though the servers seemed a bit overwhelmed at times (lot of patrons). No worries for us, we were in no rush. They have an extensive menu with what seemed like a few authentic Peruvian dishes as well as some good old comfort food with slight Peruvian slants. I started with a veggie causa appetizer, which consisted of three patties of lime-flavored mashed potatoes with a beet-and-sprout garnish on top. Really tasty with lots of interesting flavors packed into a small size! They were served cold (I was told that this is traditional) though you have the option of ordering them pan-fried (maybe next time). I ordered salmon andino for my main, which had a nicely sized hunk of seared salmon on a giant bed of rice/quinoa risotto. The risotto had some small white corn pellets, which made for a great texture. It also had asparagus mixed in, but not very much. I'll definitely consider stopping in again in the future!

This was my first time here. The location is great. The decor in the restaurant is very beautiful. The waitress was wonderful. We went for my daughter's birthday and see did amazing trying to make sure our party of 14 was satisfied. The presentation of the food was great and the taste matched it. We will definitely be back.

Came here for brunch on a Sunday, it was not too packed. Ambiance was more family oriented, which was great for a calm and relaxing brunch. Service was great, our server came to ensure our mimosa cups were not empty! Reasonably priced, you have lots of options to choose from even the dessert options are vast. I ate the Inca Chicken, very flavorful the quinoa was also tasty. I was lacking more sauce, I'm a sauce person, but they didn't fail to deliver. I asked the server for more sauce and she gave me a little bowl of the yellow sauce and another spicy one, it definitely completed the meal. I recommend this place to anyone who's wishing to try a Peruvian fusion style restaurant.

Inca Social was a vibe My friend and I went there for brunch but the smells of the kitchen had me wanting to eat something different on their menu. For starters I got my lemon drop martini and I started off with the passion fruit mimosa. Both spectacular I had not complaints Mimosas was bottomless; however, they had a starting price of $15 and for each drink depending on the flavor it was $0.50c or $0.75c increase. Because I had passion fruit I received $0.75c increased. Although it was good I limited myself to two drinks. It's important to drink responsibly anyhow. Drinks were definitely a 4.5/5 The food was great. I did have the Anticichos (Peruvian spiced chicken skewers - NOT SPICEY) for an appetizer but although the chicken was tasty it wasn't full done all the way through because my time was limited at the restaurant I asked the waitress to take it off my order I then followed up with the Cordero A La Nortena which is braised lamb with rice and beans. This dish was mind blowing very tasty. Flavors I've never had before that worked so well together. I would definitely come back to eat that again Long story short I rate the food 4/5 because my sore were weren't cooked passed chewy everything else was delicious. Our waiting was so nice and she made sure our water was filled continuously. Which I appreciate because I like to drink a lot of water! I didn't get dessert this time around because we came for lunch. I am not much of a sweets eater anyhow. Overall experience is a 4 and the swing was such a cute photo opt

They know how to make their sauces. Every dish we ordered has amazing sauce! It is a popular happy hour and could get busy and loud after work hours, so don't go if you are looking for something more private or intimate.

Such a vibrant and lively restaurant. Although tapas style selections, the portions are easily shareable. We ordered sushi, fried shrimp, mussels, seafood rice, and shrimp causa. Everything was tasty however, the mussels were more a ceviche style and overpowered by onions. The red sangria was mediocre but my friend thoroughly enjoyed "The Caipirinha" and let's just say it was a great evening. The service was good but often times our table was being cleared while we were finishing up the last few bites almost as if they may be short on dishes. For a first timer, it was a good experience that puts Inca Social on the list for a possible second visit.

went for a bday dinner and the food and service was impeccable! such a big fan will def go again!
