We ate here during our stay in ollanta - after a long hike at the ruins we needed some carbs and enjoyed their pizza on a recommendation from our hotel and we were not disappointed. It was phenomenal, great crust which is important in any pizza and great tomatoes and onions on top. Good service with the owners happening to... More

On main square and open for an early supper (many are shut until 1830). Main restaurant upstairs was empty so no one could hear our kids playing with the games on the comfy sofas at end. Sole waiter/bar man was cheerful chappie. We had drinks and appetisers. Juices and happy hour cocktails were good with frozen lemon juice well liked... More

We had the set menu here, which was decent value. There were some nice looking a la carte options, but they were very expensive for Peru. The food was very good, although I was expecting my starter to have cheese sauce and it came with peanut sauce, which didn't seem to match the menu description.

My husband and I were thoroughly enjoying the culinary delights that many of the restaurants in Peru have to offer – until we got to Ollanta. We forgot about the one recommendation in our travel book (El Albergue Restaurant) and were led astray by the fancy, creative menu and high prices at Panaka Grill expecting it to be good. It... More

I am notoriously a flexible and adventurous eater. Maybe they were slow that night and that's why things were so under par. The quinoa soups was good. My wife had the trout which was a good size portion, but dry and slightly warm, no extra flavor.I had the guinea pig roll at 50 soles ($19) and it was not a... More

The food was fast and so tasty. I loved the staff and the service. We were so surprised to find this in such a small village. If we lived here we would be there all the time. Thanks again

We couldn't believe this restaurant existed in Ollantaytambo. The food, atmosphere, quality of the cuisine and service were excellent. We came there twice for dinner over 5 nights. It is one of the two places we would recommend to eat fabulous dinner in Ollantaytambo. Thank you for being there Panaka Grill!

Panaka Grill certainly seems to be one of the higher end places in Ollantaytambo. The decor is beautiful and the setting is relaxing (unless one of their big groups are in). They have a set menu for 25 PEN, another for 35 PEN, and then you can order from the menu too. The Lomo Saltado was decent, though not as... More

I have eaten here a few times and its always a treat. The decor and ambience here is just miles ahead of anywhere else in Ollantaytambo, with lots of interesting photos on the walls taken by Martin Chambi and local art. Even the tables are painted. All very tasteful. There is a balcony with a really excellent view of the... More
