Food is incredible. Super flavorful and you can't find it anywhere else around. Service, however leaves something to be desired. Every time we call to put in an order, we are left on hold for a long time and sometimes hung up on. We have experienced our order being made incorrectly a couple times, and it's pretty inconsistent with portioning. The tofu saltado bowl is my favorite and sometimes there is way less tofu than other times. The food takes a long time to be made but is definitely worth it. Online ordering is an option, however, I wish there was a function for adding special requests like omitting ingredients.

Really delicious, quick stop for Peruvian food. Awesome vegetarian options, particularly the Lomo Saltado with spicy sauce on the side. I grabbed the chocolate cake once too and it was so tasty!

Very good food authentic peruvian flavor. highly recommended 10 out of 10, I always ordered Lomo saltado the best in town , and the ceviche super fresh.

Man oh man do I love red Panka. The young cashier girl kinda scares me but she's nice enough most of the time. Food never disappoints and it's always nice to sit down and eat here. I Peruvian food.

We stopped by today for lunch because we were in the area. The reviews were really good so we wanted to give it a try! I ordered the beef lomo saltado plate. It was delicious! I was even able to take some home for leftovers. The gentleman at the front was very kind and helpful. We will for sure be coming back!

I first heard about this place when I started university, and it's been a few years since my last visit. Since I was in the area today, I decided to drop by, and I'm so glad I did. My dad and I arrived around 2pm, and it was pretty quiet inside. The lady at the register was kind and patient, letting me take my time deciding what to order. After some indecision, I settled on the Camaron Saltado Peruvian-style bowl, while my dad chose the Tallarin Saltdo with beef. I also ordered their fried plantain, a childhood favorite that I rarely find on menus. While we waited, I admired the wall art and unique framed pieces. There was plenty of seating, and everything was relatively clean. Watching the chefs work on our meals, with the flames blazing in the kitchen, was quite entertaining. The wait for our food wasn't too long, and when it was ready, we picked it up from the front. I was genuinely impressed by the food. My shrimp was flavorful, well-seasoned, and perfectly cooked, and I loved the sauce drizzled over my bowl. My dad's dish was also delicious, with a strong soy sauce flavor and perfectly tender beef. The portion sizes were generous, and I honestly wasn't sure if I could finish everything. The fried plantain was a standout, tasting just like my childhood, and now I want to learn how to make it myself. Overall, this spontaneous visit to the restaurant was enjoyable, and I'll definitely be back!

Think of a better version Chipotle, but with Peruvian flavors and the color scheme of Jimmy Johns, then you've got Red Panka. Bowls, burritos, tacos, and salads, all packed with flavorful sauces, Red Panka is a great option for when you want something fast, but don't want to feel guilty afterwards. I got the shrimp Panka bowl and thought the aji sauce had a decent kick. They also include a pretty generous drizzle on top, so if you're slightly sauce-averse like myself, consider asking for it on the side. My bowl was a little lacking on the amount of shrimp, but they were well seasoned and grilled to perfection. Next time I might ask for more lettuce and less rice, to meet my preferences. They offer 2 types of bowls which have the same base (romaine lettuce, rice--white or brown, and beans--black or pinto) but the Panka style features a corn salsa vs the Peruvian style which has sautéed tomato and red onion. A surprisingly amount of variety for pescatarian and and vegetarian options here (ceviche, shrimp, tofu saltado, quinoa salads, plantains, etc). Don't expect much in terms of ambiance, but the food will keep you coming back for more.
