Inka Mama‘s is a wonderful restaurant. The food is spectacular. The Seafood Chaufa, its like Fried Rice except better was oh so yummy! The ceviche and empanadas are also top notch! But I cannot say enough good things about the service! The owner truly takes care of his guests. The decor is lovely! Its a bit pricey but its worth it! We had drinks. We will be back
