"How did it take me so long to find this gem? Inka Mamas delivered in every category. I 'll admit, I was initially skeptical of a restaurant in a strip mall. I 'm not from the area, so I didn 't realize that it 's actually a super charming collection of shops with an early-California feel. A stately fireplace, cozy living room, gorgeous artwork, Spanish colonial architecture, and rustic tile floor give Inka Mama a warm ambiance. The friendly server guided our menu choices and said he had personally made the aji sauce and chicha morada. How cool! When we spoke Spanish (though clearly not our native language he responded in Spanish. The wine list is short, but we loved the Quest red blend from Paso Robles. Loved the food! We tried the fried yucca (great for gluten-free! with aji sauce and shared the spicy potatoes and arroz con pollo. Beautifully executed. Nothing was particularly spicy, though. Perfect date night! I almost hesitate to recommend it because I don 't want it to get crowded... but I want them to stay in business. haha. So, go to Inka Mama 's!"

Wonderful local San Clemente restaurant. Very busy, because it’s very good! Authentic Peruvian dishes, with an incredibly friendly and professional Peruvian staff. Next best thing to actually visiting Lima or Machu Pichu.

Amazing and different menu of Peruvian cuisine. We ordered vegan, chicken, fish, and beef dishes. Service, food quality, and quantities were perfect. It’s a nice, small restaurant, with nice decor. Only downside was that we had a large table near us that was obnoxiously loud. View menu

We have been wanting to dine at Inka Mama’s for some time now and it was definitely worth the wait! We had a lovely table for 2 by the window and near the fireplace. The service was outstanding and the food and drinks are delicious. We enjoyed the ribeye appetizer and shared the white fish (halibut) dinner. The homemade shortbread cookies were so delicious that we took 2 more to go! My margarita was a bit sour but I prefer that to too sweet. My husbands old fashioned was perfect. I did not like that that they don’t have prices for a lot of their dishes- meat and fish. Their prices are high for the portion size. All and all, we had a lovely time and we will definitely be back to Inka Mama’s a...

My wife and I were in the area so searched for an interesting restaurant with a high customer rating. Inka Mama 's jumped out first with positive reviews, and also the name Inka Mama 's sounded like something a little more exotic for us with Peruvian cuisine. Man are we glad we chose Inka Mama 's! The restaurant is located in a little village area mall with small shops and restaurants. It feels like you are in a different country. You can 't tell just how cool the restaurant is until you walk through the door and see a beautiful restaurant with exposed wood beams, a colorfully tiled fireplace, bar, and comfortable spread out seating. We started with one of their craft cocktails Pisco Sour ,...
