Kenya
At a glance
Inca Restaurant brings a Peruvian dining concept to the rooftop of The Social House on James Gichuru Road in Lavington, Nairobi, Kenya. The restaurant draws on the varied culinary traditions of Peru, presenting them in a setting shaped by colourful Peruvian tones and a sociable atmosphere. Its identity is centred on shared dining, with cocktails and platters designed for the table rather than a formal, course-by-course experience.
The rooftop location gives Inca a distinct place within The Social House, making it suited to diners looking for a restaurant with a defined sense of occasion without losing its relaxed character. Peruvian food forms the foundation, while the format encourages conversation and group dining. The menu is presented as a distillation of Peru’s diverse culinary heritage, offering a broad cultural focus rather than a narrow interpretation of one region or cooking style.
Inca serves lunch and dinner, with the evening setting supported by live music and DJs. These elements add an entertainment-led dimension to the restaurant, while the sharing format keeps the experience informal and social. Cocktails sit alongside the food, making the restaurant suitable for a meal, drinks with friends, or a longer gathering built around shared plates.
The restaurant works well for diners interested in Peruvian cuisine, social meals and a rooftop setting within a larger hospitality venue. It can also suit groups that prefer to order several dishes for the table and share them over drinks. The colourful surroundings and music-led atmosphere give the restaurant a more expressive character than a purely casual café, while lunch service provides a quieter option within the same Peruvian concept.
Inca forms one part of The Social House’s wider collection of dining spaces, but it has its own cuisine, mood and rooftop setting. A reservation is available for those planning a visit, particularly when a group needs a table for lunch or dinner. The restaurant’s combination of Peruvian food, shared platters, cocktails and live entertainment makes it a practical choice for social occasions in Lavington.
