A Hidden Gem That Feels Like Home 🇵🇪❤️
Ok amigos—let me tell you, I’m an Ecuadorian girl raised on full-blown Peruvian food (yes, I grew up on the real deal). I’ve lived in Thousand Oaks for the past 12 years, and finding authentic, soul-satisfying Peruvian cuisine has felt nearly impossible… until today.
Enter: Inca Kingdom. From the very first bite, I knew this place was something special. The flavors transported me straight back to my childhood kitchen—where abuela would be humming a tune, apron on, pouring love into every dish.
The minestrone soup was rich, vibrant, and comforting. And the lomo saltado? Perfection. The meat was tender, the onions perfectly sautéed, and the fries soaked up all those magical juices just right. It was flavorful, hearty, and undeniably authentic.
There’s a warmth to this restaurant that’s hard to describe—it feels like home. The kind of place where the food doesn’t just feed your stomach… it feeds your soul.
To anyone craving a real taste of Peru, Inca Kingdom is where you want to be. ¡Buenísimo! 10/10. Will be back. Will bring friends. Will dream...

The pan con chicharron was heavenly! Flavorful tender pork with sweet potato and pickled onions. Added some aji verde and it was absolutely perfect.
The ceviche de pescado was also delicious and a pretty generous portion - super tangy leche de tigre, fresh fish, well balanced.
Even the salsas and cancha were fantastic. Service was friendly and fast. If we lived closer, we'd...
