ZERO STARS HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PLACE, stay away! Ordered by the window and took over 20 , when i asked the guy was so rude, i waited other 10 minutes and requested my money back and they DENIED TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK! I told me ghat if the food is ready im not getting the money back, for real? I asked them if they think i have all day to be waiting! They give me the food and was awfully bad? I laterally have to grabbed the food my self, nasty flavor, so so bad experience, thats why they have not business (they claimed that everything was made from scratched but is a lie, is cold and NOT fully cooked! POOR MANAGEMENT..,, by your reply ARGUING WITH THW CLIENT And this is exactly why this business is a complete disaster, first check the cameras and see HOW YOUR CASHIER TREATED ME, as a customer a deserved respect he was entitled and rude, and of course i have to say something back, TRASHY read more

Really good food! Had the quarter with a side of Yucca fries with mild and hot sauce. Excellent flavors, healthy portion. Will be having again! read more

Always delicious, lots the variety of the menu. Best chicken in the area hands down!! Definitely recommend trying Inka Chicken!!

What a find! Delicious rotisserie chicken (what we came for) but also there's many other menu items that look super appealing! We had the half a chicken with a yuca and fries side and the mild aji sauce (which was delicious and mild and flavorful)- and we were full! You order up front and then get your number and wait for their delivery to your table. It can be a wait, depending on how busy they are, but in good conversation the time flows on by. The atmosphere of this small rotisserie space is very quaint and colorful and there are also 2 tvs showcasing the latest game. Oh I forgot to mention the food they showcase is mainly peruvian favorites, as well as deserts and Inka Kola! Enjoy! read more

Inka Chicken - Half a chicken with 2 sides and inka kola - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

5/5 Food 6/5 Service The staff here is what every restaurant should try to achieve. They are very nice and seem to take pride in their work, I was beyond impressed! The chicken? Damn. We didn't even get to it until our baby went to bed, so like 2 hours? Still tender and moist! Like... how!? The marinade or glaze or whatever on it is incredible. We couldn't finish it and ate the rest today, even their day old chicken reheated nicely and tasted so good. For sides, we had Yucca Fries and Black Beans. The amount of flavor they get into such simple items blows my mind. Just do it. Get their chicken and get the black beans and some rice, you won't regret it. The only downside? Hated the sauces. Not docking points because you don't need a side sauce to go with the food. We got the Aji Amarillo and Aji Rocoto - both have mayo in it and uh, way too much. Peruvian is one of my favorite foods and I was excited to have the sauce but these just tasted like mayo with a slight kick. You really don't need any sauce to go with your food anyways, trust me. read more

Food is superb. Service is great and people are friendly. Sauces are great but I didn't use any for the chicken bc it's flavoring is spot on! That's the only reason I come here. Sauces are great with Yuka fries though. Ambiance - it's decent but people aren't lining up around the block for that. The star of the show is the food, period. read more

I have passed this establishment without giving it a second thought and I am so upset that I have missed out on, not only good food but being around people that you can tell are proud of what they are doing. You can feed a family of 4 easy for under $35 and this is NOT you "fast food". They have what I call the "chicken oven" that they add coals to so it does get warm in there. I have never had Peruvian food but it now on my radar! The steak in the fried rice was so tender! I am glad I went with the recommendation of the employee! Again, the gentlemen working here seemed proud of what they were serving and we will definitely be back! read more

This place is a gem if you order the right dish. I've been back twice since first visiting last month. It operates like something a cut above a fast food restaurant. The food tastes more authentic & better quality than what most fast food restaurants offer, but it has a drive-thru. You also have the option to dine in: order your food at the counter, and have it served to you at your table. I've tried the arroz chaufa, lomo saltado, macaroni & cheese, plantains, salad, tres leche cake, and guava juice, which were all excellent. However, I can't recommend their rotisserie chicken, their signature dish... I ordered the quarter chicken and received a small dried out cut of chicken that had far less meat on the bone than a typical chicken breast. If it weren't for this most recent experience, I would have given this casual & yummy spot 5 stars. read more

Inka Chicken - arroz chaufa with shrimp - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Inka is a hidden gem in Austin. I want to tell everyone about it but I also want to keep it quiet because they run out and this is the only location They are amazing and one of our favorite spots. My husband and I always get the family meal so we can have leftovers. We typically get the rice and beans, and plantains. The rice is nicely flavored and never gooey. The plantains are perfectly caramelized. If I were to have a last meal, Inka would be it. read more

We just moved into the hood. This was our time grabbing some take - the #1 Family meal. IT IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! So much food for my husband and me. The side salad was so fresh and a perfect blend. The chicken was moist and seasoned perfectly. Also, the staff was so lovely and the dinning area was very inviting. This is a MUST order again!! read more

Inka Chicken - DELICIOUS - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

It's been two years too long since picking up dinner from Inka Chicken. The spices and charcoal rotisserie makes for a flavor filled bird. The family meal for 2-4 people is a whole chicken with two sides. I selected the vegetable medley and yucca fries. The spicy sauce is a perfect addition with the chicken. Delicious!! https://inka-chicken.com/?fs=e&s=cl read more

My kids loved the Inka chicken, the chicken rice, the sauce, and the JUICE (Guava and Passion Fruit). We also had the tres leches, which were delicious and less sweet. The side Mac and cheese was meh. Overall, it was excellent food. Highly recommend! read more

This is seriously the best place to get Peruvian chicken! Everything is SO GOOD and it's the first place to go when I come back to Austin. Every. Time. I love their soup, black beans, chicken, plantains, yuca frites and honestly I'm not sure there's a bad menu item. Go there! Now! read more

Inka Chicken is a pretty solid fast-casual spot. The food was phenomenal and the cashier was very patient and helpful. The bathroom and overall restaurant didn't appear particularly clean.Also, the women's bathroom didn't have hand soap and I had to go to the men's bathroom to grab some. It was pretty clear that cleanliness wasn't Inka's top priority. We ordered two whole chicken and several sides. The chicken, plantain, mash potatoes, and black beans were great and incredibly flavorful. The sauce was really good and a great compliment to the chicken. I wasn't as crazy about the mixed vegetables and they were a bit greasy but everything else was great. Overall, I enjoyed my food and everything was reasonably priced. Also, the food was enough to quench our entire table's appetite. Hopefully next time I'm back, Inka will be a bit cleaner. read more

The food here has never NOT hit. I typically go for the fettuccine but the dirty Mac and cheese is something I dream about. The fresh drinks are also delightful and fun fact have helped me recover from a hangover My partner constantly speaks highly of the staff and refers to one of the employees as his "bro" (mind you they have never spoken outside the restaurant haha.... Men) We come back frequently and I enjoy the images they have of the food as it motivates me to try new things. read more

Today I came to this location with another party. We ordered the family all white meat chicken meal and the Tostones Baskets for take-out. Tostones Baskets- Stuffed Plantain Cups, also known as Tostones Rellenos are cute little cups of scrumptiousness! These Tostones were filled with rice, beans, salsa criolla, avocado, queso fresco and aji mayo. These were excellent! Whole Chicken- We ordered the family chicken meal with four sides to include cilantro rice, macaroni and cheese, fries and black beans. While the food was a bit of a wait to get after it was ordered (30 minutes to be exact); as other Yelpers have alluded to in their reviews, the chicken was juicy and tender and the charbroiled taste was on point. This place is worth a return visit! #supportlocal read more

Staff is friendly and actually opened the door for my friend and I when they realized we were outside chatting while waiting for the restaurant to open. There is a variety of seating and windows around the dining room, so it is bright and lively. I ordered the quarter chicken plate with yuca fries, fried plantains, corn tortillas, and one of their mild sauces. Everything was fresh, hot, and delicious. The majority of the food at this restaurant is gluten-free, so there was a lot for me to choose from. Anything not gluten-free is marked on their menu. They also have vegetarian options marked as well. The chicken is char-grilled in house and seasoned to perfection. The yuca fries are crispy outside and soft inside, and the fried plantain is warm and sweet. The mild sauce I chose is mayo based with a mild pepper. It's sweet and light. read more

Inka Chicken - Quarter chicken plate with yuca fries, fried plantains, corn tortillas, and their mild sauce. Yum! - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

I am forever disappointed in this restaurant. Disappointment is not even close to how I feel about this lackluster experience. Unfortunately, I am unable to eat onions nor chilies due to health reasons. I was still served chilies with my food and the server just went back to the kitchen to remove the chilies on top of the meat yet the rice continued to have chilies. Aside from that fiasco, there was a baby roach on my plate that can be seen in the picture on the napkin. No sé ni que dicer sobre esta experiencia "culinaria" si se puede mencionar culinaria. Tengo alergias a la cebolla y al chile/ pimiento. De todos modos me sirvieron chilies con mi plato. Además a la camarera no le importó un bledo y también hubo una cucaracha en mi plato que maté con mi servilleta. read more

The service was decent, the drive through was closed so I had to get out the car with no bra just playing I didn't mind. Now to this food...all the pictures looked so juicy but mine was a lil dry; but I don't mind well cooked chicken, the flavor was definitely on point. The rice tasted old the beans had no flavor, the salad was a salad lol but the plantains and that dipping sauce was to die for!!! I wanted to try the macaroni (because I'm scared of restaurant's version of mac) but was told they no longer give samples Overall it was cool. The Inca cola taste like cream soda which is my fave when I do cheat on my ice water. I'd definitely return for the chicken and plantains read more

The visit wasn't what I was expecting after hearing from friends that I needed to try this place out.. The service was up to par, and the ambiance of the place is that of a casual setting....The food is where I had the issue. I ordered the half chicken and fries and vegetables medley.. The chicken was Luke warm and tasted as if it was reheated, which it probably wasn't but that's what it tasted like, also the servings size of the half chicken looked more like a quarter of a chicken, see the attached picture... The one good thing about the food was the vegetables medley... read more

10-23-21 Quality/Quantity - 5 Stars for flavor! 1/2 Chicken - Paid extra 75 cents for dark meat, next time I will get it as is. Although dark meat is more tender, there is less meat. Chaufarroncito - slow braised fried pork Atmosphere - Not sure what to make of this place. Fast food? Fast Casual? Either way, the place and decor was good. There were lots of good write-ups posted about this business. Service - Friendly and patient with us as this was our first time here. Price - $26 + tip, probably our least expensive meal and worth 5 Stars!!!!!!!! Owner Suggestion - I actually wanted to come back again before we left Austin, but there are too many good choices in your city. I will be sure to revisit on my next trip to Austin. Keep up the good work! read more

The rotisserie chicken is always juicy and packed with that perfect smoky, Peruvian flavor. I like to mix both their sauces and order the roasted corn and the plantains as sides. A great place on my way home! read more

Yelp saves the day again. We looked around for something a little different and went a bit out of our way to get some chicken. Once you step out of your car, it hits you. The smell of charcoal and something delicious cooking up inside is everywhere. Inside, there's a lot of tables and counter service, with a very extensive menu. With a name like this, the star is going to be the chicken, so we opted for a half and dug in. The chicken is extremely flavorful coated with a bunch of spices and rub that gets singed by the fire. You don't see any of it though because it's shrouded in a huge sheet of aluminum to try and contain all that smoke in the kitchen. That's how you know this is good. Fall off the bone finger lickin good. The sides are a great touch too - the yuca fries are addicting! read more

Very nice folks! Ambiance is quite good too. It looks like a fast food drive through place on the outside in a random plaza, but they serve beers and make great charcoal smoked food! Great value for money - lots of good choices!! read more

I am dying to come here again, it has been too long. Something reminded me of this place and I figured I'd drop a review (will add photos when I come back again) What isn't there to love about this place? The food is absolutely divine! I really dig the sauce they give you to dip your chicken in...and literally everything else savory deserves some of that goodness! Oh and who could ever forget the fried plantains!!! I am so grateful to know of a place that offers great food with fried plantains as a side option. Yes please!! The only reason I don't eat here often is that I no longer live a short drive away but man am I looking for a reason to drop by again. Mmmm drooling thinking about it. There is enough seating here but I wouldn't advise coming here with a really large group of people, it isn't all that big. I can't speak much to the service, it hasn't really stood out to me as great or bad either way. read more

Very causal restaurant tucked away behind a hotel and a 7-11. Only 3 people a head of us when we ordered at the counter which gave us plenty of time to look at the menu and pics. Food took a really long time for it to come out and it came out at different times. The tostones basket was really good but extremely messy. It's basically almost all of their sides wrapped into a snack. The yucca fries (not pictured) was the probably the stand out side for me. It the perfect amount of salt and crispy outside with a soft and not dry center. The seafood fried rice was also really good. Said it was probably the best fried rice I've had. The grilled octopus was good but I expected the tentacles to be bigger. I was not expecting the sauce. It was good and spicy. It needed bread or rice to absorb the sauce. One of the kitchen guys came out and said they were out of the corn so I had to think last minute what I wanted as a side and ended up with the tostones. read more

We come here often for pick up or go through the drive thru. The roasted chicken is awesome, and we always get all of their sauces. Do not miss the fried yuca nor the yucitas rellenas, they are delish! The staff are kind and helpful. The restaurant ambiance is casual, but they did a decent job with decor to make it feel more authentic. Also, do not miss the passionfruit lemonade. So. Tasty. read more

I've visited this spot twice and was satisfied on both occasions. I love that they have a drive-thru! As a busy mom, I need quick/quality, and sometimes that can be hard to find; but this place has it. I've ordered the Inka Quinoa Bowl with chicken and the Perfect Peruvian Sandwich with Yuca Fritas on my past visits, and both were good. FYI- there is so much going on in that Perfect Peruvian Sandwich, so tastebuds, beware! The chicken is by far the best thing on the menu; it's very tender and flavorful. However, to me, the food (that I've ordered) is just good- not great. Their variety of authentic flavor combinations and menu options provides everyone with options to satisfy their cravings. I recommend trying this restaurant out for yourself. Be sure to check in via Yelp for your free soft serve ice cream cone! read more

Inka Chicken - Proud Peruvian Sandwich- to go - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Review - Covid 19 edition Dine-in is closed but drive thru is open. The lady taking our order was super sweet and patient. She even gave us some hand sanitizer after paying! I've been eating here for a few years now. Inka Chicken's rotisserie chicken is one of my favorite chickens of all time! It's just so well cooked that the flavor is in all the way to the bones. I love putting the mild and medium sauces all over the chicken to sauce it up. My wife likes the spicy one. The prices are very reasonable prices and they have a variety of sides to pick from, all of which feels healthier than other places. I honestly can't find anything comparable in Austin to what Inka chicken puts out so I'm thankful to have this as an option so close to me! read more

Have had this joint on my radar for years, and finally got to check it out. I'm on a diet, so I got the Inka quinoa bowl with chicken and hot sauce as a dressing. It was pretty good. The chicken was very flavorful and the hot sauce was tasty, spicy and chopped full of cilantro. Everything else was alright (lettuce, carrots, rice, beans, quinoa, onion, tomato and cucumber). We got a free ice cream cone as a check-in perk and it looked good to me and was told it was decent. I would be down to try this spot again and order a chicken plate or possibly a sandwich to get a better feel for the food. It's nice that they have a drive-thru in these times of COVID. read more

Inka Chicken - Inka Quinoa Bowl w/chicken - Peruvian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Still one of our go-to meals to order to eat at home. We go with the Family Meal #1 with all white meat chicken (costs a smidge extra). Our sides: black beans and plantains. When we get the Family Meal #2, we add on cilantro rice and yucca fries. To save a little money, I just make cilantro rice at home to go with the meal. For the amount of food you get, my boyf and I can make at least two meals out of the Family Meal #1. The chicken is always moist and perfectly cooked. The service is always great and was great throughout the covids too. They were always on top of it. I only had one mistake in the past couple of years - they forgot to do all white meat + beans. I had to go back, but it's close so no big deal. I urge everyone to eat here! read more

The best Chicken in town! Don't forget the yucca and plantains. We've been coming here for years and every time is excellent.

You can feed a family of 4 for about $50 here and it's absolutely delicious food. There is a drive thru available and management makes hiring folks with disabilities a priority. If you choose to eat inside, it's like a fast food place with booths and tables. My favorite thing, however, is to bring it all home with me, put it on my nice plates, and pretend I cooked it all myself. No one has to know. read more

Inka Chicken was amazing. The staff were nice and attentive. Gabriel City Culiat Philippines would definitely recommend them to family and friends. A++++++++++++ read more

We really wanted to like this place. If you're Peruvian avoid it at all costs. You will be disappointed. Food was cold as others have complained about, the chicken does not taste AT ALL like Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa. The food is missing so much flavor. None of the sauces tastes like Peruvian salsas, not the pollo sauce or the huancaina. The lomo saltado just tasted like soy sauce and it is missing that smokiness and everything to be called a lomo saltado. The Canchita was burnt and bitter. The only good thing was the Chicha! We will never return. read more

I would say Inka chicken is a nice place to go for fast and filling food! I got their lomo salatado and the 1/4 chicken. I would say the lomo saltado sauce is more on the soy-saucey side and their portions are decent sized. Both the meat and vegetables were cooked very well, but I would say their fries are a bit soggy and dry. The chicken had great seasoning, but was disappointed by how dry it was. Service wise, the workers were quick and efficient! This location has sit down and a drive through, so I would assume it would be a nice place for both on the go or dine in! read more

Affordable and tasty! Only a couple bucks more than you would spend at a fast food establishment. Plus instead it's a healthy chicken meal with rice and beans. You can't go wrong! The cashier was a bit rude and impatient, made everything super awkward. I think the food is good enough that I can look over that mishap though. read more
