Really good seafood, however the restaurant is really uncomfortable, or maybe I’m to tall? I don’t know I’m 5.2 and the seats are like not symmetrical with the table and that bench is really hard. Food awesome by for takeout

The waitress was very nice. They gave a piece of cake to my friend as a birthday present. The food was great although I believe the chicken needs a bit more of salt. Also, I was surprised at the hand written bill.

This is one of my new favorite restaurants in the area. I have yet to order something that I didn’t like. It’s all really good. I love the lomo saltado and avocado salad. It’s a great Peruvian restaurant and the service is always friendly.

Having lived in the area for a while in the past it was nice to see this place looking all modern with their renovation and their menu sounded appetizing. They have an open store-front which looks really nice and I was optimistic about our meal. Enjoyed the hot sauce served with the plantain chips and dried corn(?) to munch on pre-meal. I ordered the arroz con pollo as it sounded like a basic dish that would be hard to mess up but the chicken in the dish was the driest chicken I’ve ever been served. Since it’s a local small restaurant I chose not to complain & send the meal back, so I ate some of it begrudgingly. I loved the side of plantains that I ordered so that alone would get five stars. Although I didn’t send back the meal, I told two separate servers/maybe one owner(?) after the meal that my chicken was dry when they asked how our meal was. I got no reaction from either of them nor remedy. I can only assume that they did not understand my comment as there was some difficulty in communication when ordering. I took home leftovers hoping it would somehow taste better the 2nd day but that wasn’t the case and ended throwing most of it away. My friend ordered the yellow rice with seafood and the rice itself was pretty flavorful, like paella minus the chicken/sausage. She enjoyed it but my review is based on my meal. Didn’t order dessert b/c I was so disappointed in my entrée. I had made a fuss about wanting to eat out that night so understandably I was miffed that I didn’t get to enjoy my dinner. My feedback for the restaurant would be to not overcook the chicken in that dish and strategize how to remedy the situation when a customer expresses dissatisfaction with their meal.(I wasn’t expecting to not pay for the meal or anything but would not have turned away a soda or the plantains or a dessert to make up for it. Just sayin’.)

tl;dr: Avoid at all costs, much better Peruvian restaurants nearby, pick any one at all, and I promise it will be a better experience than this place. I have no idea what happened to this restaurant. It used to have a wonderful atmosphere, delicious food and inviting service. Not sure whether management changed or current management doesn’t care about running a good local business. At the moment, service is not just lackluster but don’t seem to know what’s going on. Noticed that alcohol was being served to already very intoxicated women, caring for a child. Not only were items not available when ordered take out but took over 40 minutes to prepare, at which point I decided to give up on the order entirely. Service staff had no idea what was going on with orders. The dimly lit, warm atmosphere has been replaced by a more open space which would be a welcome change if the restaurant was a nice to hang out at. Random guitarist walks in off the street and sings for money. It’s not an inviting place, food is non existing and staff are confused. Only after complaining does the chef or manager make an appearance. Terrible offerings, terrible service, terrible management, terrible management(yes, am repeating because it was really terrible). Avoid this place, there are much better Peruvian restaurants in all directions within a few blocks of this place, there’s no reason to waste your time, energy or money at this establishment.

I have ordered from this place a few times in the past but this will be my last time. This place is all about money and forgot about quality. We waited almost two hours for our food and it was tasteless. I ordered the ¼. Chicken with 2 ribs. The ribs were the tiniest things I ever seen. I asked for white meat and got dark meat, which I hate. They are super cheap with the green sauce. At least put an option to buy more if your gonna be so cheap. French fries. Yuck. They just don’t care. Money money money.

Ordered delivery — a solid choice, would order again! The two of us got a whole chicken, fried rice with chicken, maduro(fried sweet plantain) and fried yuca. Our order arrived piping hot, and in less than 45 minutes. The chicken was spiced really nicely — I can see what a prior reviewer said about a cinnamony aftertaste, but I thought that it was delicious with the maduro. I don’t even usually like maduro, but these were maybe the best I’ve ever had. The yuca arrived perfectly crispy and stayed that way until the end of the meal. The fried rice really hit the spot — exactly what I was craving. The only complaint is that we ordered extra green sauce on seamless, but only appeared to have received a regular amount(two small containers for two mains). Maybe it was because we requested in English — next time we will try it in Spanish.

This place is my wife and my go-to for Peruvian cuisine. Much better than others we’ve tried in the area, and we are very satisfied with the customer service so far.

If this restaurant was a movie it would be called 50 Shades of Stupid. The staff isn’t very smart or accommodating and the food is ok if it ever arrives. Unfortunately, if a place burns me twice, I am unwilling to give it a third try. Both times I ordered through seamless it takes over an hour and a half. this time I called after I waited that long only for them to tell me the order was not received when seamless says they absolutely confirmed it on there side. Don’t waste any time waiting for these people to figure out how to run a business… there are so many other Peruvian places in the neighborhood worth trying.

I can’t believe how upset I am right now. I decided to order from this place because lately I’ve been craving a tres leches cake. My usual spot ran out, so I decided to give this place a try. I ordered two tres leches cakes and their ¼ chicken meal. The chicken had this weird taste to it; I’m not sure if it was the seasoning or the chicken itself but something was waaaay off. The tres leches cake was horrendous. How in the world does a cake that uses three kinds of milk, still taste dry??? Both cakes were disgustingly dry, overly sweet, and bland in flavor. I can’t believe I wasted $ 20 on that meal. I couldn’t even finish it. I might actually call the restaurant and demand a refund. I’ve never been so disappointed by a meal in my entire life.

First time here, a small spot tuck away in the middle of the block with some outdoor seating. It’s a Peruvian spot, the front door opens up wide, so there is a open air feeling to it. The price of food is good, I had a quarter chick breast with two beef ribs and side salad for less then $ 20 bucks. They have some fish specials as well a few meat selections. They have some wine selection all from Peru. Over all I really enjoyed the feel of the place and the food was good, I will definitely be back again.

There are a few things this place does incredibly right, and is definitely worth a shot if you’re in the neighborhood: –Very good and very reasonably priced sangria! –Best«green sauce» of all Peruvian chicken restaurants in the area. –Very fresh ingredients in all seafood dishes It is unfair to compare Los Pollos to Pio Pio Riko as they’re doing different things, and this is a slightly higher price point. Pio Pio is my go to takeout, but this very pleasant dining space is more when you want to go out. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

I’m SHOCKED at the low reviews. I came here last Friday and boy oh boy was this place mind blowing. The waitress was so sweet, her name was Daisy. She wasn’t too pushy nor rude, she was really really nice and helpful when needed. The food was great, I ordered roasted chicken with yellow rice and frijoles along with platano maduro. A glass of sangria, and good company, what else can a girl ask for? Anyways, AMAZING. I was stuffed like a turkey and at the end of the night, I had no complaints. Would so come back. these ppl know how to treat their customers right.

I’m pretty surprised by the low reviews here. I order from here every week and can’t say I’ve ever had a bad experience. The rotisserie roasted chicken is awesome. Very, very delicious. The spices on the skin are just so good. The prices are very reasonable which certainly makes me a bigger fan of this place. The side of rice is cheap and they pack it out, so much so that I’ve never finished it, so I’m not too sure what the other reviewer meant by saying there wasn’t enough. Cause there is, duuuude. The fried rice dishes are decent, not the best, but they’d be so much better if they used the actual roasted chicken pulled from the bone in it instead of the chicken they chop up for it. If they did that, then it’d be amazing. Good spot. Fast delivery. Like, strangely fast. When I get it I dig in immediately and always burn my mouth because it still catches me off guard to this day. Guess I’ll never learn.

I’m surprised by the low reviews here. When the in-laws are in town, this is one of our favorite places to go to. You kind of HAVE to compare this place to Pio Pio, which is right up the block. They both pretty much serve the same Peruvian style dishes, but Pio Pio tends to have lines around the block whereas this place is much more quiet and offers seating for much larger parties. I personally think if people knew about Los Pollos, they wouldn’t bother waiting so long for a seat at Pio Pio. Chicken is succulent, jalea is huge, and everything tastes very fresh. It is comparable in quality to Pio Pio, with the added benefit of outdoor seating!

I was not impressed with the chicken here. First off It was sitting in a steam table for god knows how long, therefore makes the skin non-crispy which is the whole point? The whole bird was pretty dry, the green sauce was just OK and the sign said 4.50 and they charged me 5. Will I go back? NO, Pio Pio is much better and Tu Casa is 1000 times better.
