    Arroz Chaufa
    Larissa W.

    I love their chicken, and their fried rice dish (Arroz Chaufa) . However this time around I tried their grilled steak strips (Lomo Saltado). It was very salty, which I've never had that with all the other dishes I've had. I've never eaten there, have only done carry out, but it's always ready when I arrive.

    This is my first time visiting this location, but I'm not new to Alpaca. I ordered me a quarter pound white chicken with black beans and rice and corn. The service was good., food was tasty and I'll come back to this location again.

    I absolutely love Alpaca. This was my first time at this location and I am so glad the owners kept the old IHOP building and renovated instead of demolishing it. I love the picture of the old IHOP inside mixed among the alpaca pics. Such a neat touch. The food and service is always superb. Today was Monday so I had to get the unique Monday special -- pollo Saltado. It's delicious chicken, tomatoes and onions over French fries with a side of rice. Healthy, right? Everything in moderation. The yellow and green sauces are fabulous. Always a treat.

    Alpaca is my go to for fast casual food. The chicken is always juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside, and has great flavor. I love that you can fully customize your meal. This time, I got the 1/4 white meat chicken with green beans and French fries. The green beans were in the most delicious garlic sauce! I also absolutely love their yellow sauce!! I have tried to replicate it at home, but nothing compares. Only downfall is that my husband ordered a 1/2 chicken and was only given a 1/4 chicken. The restaurant was very busy and was still quick to rectify the issue, so overall we are still very happy! I got carry out this time, but have dined in before. It is a pretty basic fast casual joint, but they still keep a nice environment by incorporating Peruvian decor.

    Nice and clean restaurant. The service was good and the food is okay. Great place for a quick meal.

    Excellent food and service. They really turned this old ihop into a beautiful quick service restaurant. The food was delicious, they're known for their chicken for a reason. I used them to cater a small work meeting and all of the food was definitely a crowd pleaser. Of course the chicken was perfect but the arroz chaufa was delicious as wells the llomo Saltaldo and jerk chicken with all of the sides. Excited to have them for a different and healthy option in the area.

    Not Lomo Saltado....

I understand as if you aren't seated when they open, you can expect a 90-minute to two-hour wait. I was hoping to get the Chicken Pot Pie this time and thought my prior visit was just off. I was thrilled that most of the menu was available. They were just out of the banana pudding. So I got to try the pecan wings I read about with the white sauce. It was so good. Then I got the chicken pot pie and biscuits. The pot pie had old biscuits for the topping, but the creamy mixture with large chunks of chicken was delicious. My biscuits came with honey and were served warm. I left with a slice of the chocolate-caramel-coconut cake, a side salad without onions, and a fried boneless thigh. The salad was made correctly, and the dressing was included. The salad was full of veggies, and the cake was rich and moist. Service was friendly and as soon as I finished my iced tea, another appeared. My wings were brought out first and it was a while for the rest of the meal as the restaurant was full. But they didn't rush me at all. I actually liked the space between the dishes, as I might not have been able to eat it all otherwise. I couldn't finish both biscuits and was even provided a container for the honey. I am going to miss Beasley's, but I'm glad I got a positive experience to remember the restaurant.

Obviously, this is our first time, but what we got was amazing. We each got one of the lunch specials. She got boneless wings with the seasoned fries, and I got the wings with the radish. I got the sauce that starts with a "y", and she got half Korean BBQ and half the "Y" sauce. She enjoyed both of the sauces, but liked the BBQ one best. She also ordered one of those Korean "corn dogs" with cinnamon sugar on it, and the Kewpie mayo. I wouldn't get the pickled radish again, it's not what I've eaten elsewhere, but who cares when the wings were so awesome.........amazing........I think young people say they are fire......and they were. The fries were crispy, the wings crispy and well-sauced.......................and I cannot wait to go again. To top it off, our server, Madden, was wonderful. Not named after those guys from the band, Good Charlotte, but after John Madden! Since I know it can be good, let it be known while there if it's not.......because I'm pretty sure they'll make it right.

So I dropped in for a lunch visit and wasn't disappointed AGAIN. I had the lunch special for two. It includes 1 Appetizer, 2 entrees and a dessert for $39.99. We selected the pork potstickers, beef bulgolgi and Korean Bbq Fried Chicken (6 wings /3 legs) and. Korean donut. I washed it down with the Soju Mule. Everything was delicious per usual. Our waitress was super nice and gave us great recommendations as well which is always welcomed. I just really think it's pretty cool that they have a bar.

    I'd been looking forward to trying Guthrie's for a while, since I saw they were opening in Raleigh…read more After my experience, my reaction is how is this place different than the other chicken finger places that already exist? I still don't know. I got the 3 tender combo with fries, Texas toast, and a drink. The half and half iced tea was pretty solid, though I had to stir it up to get the two teas combined. Texas toast: Very good. Crispy, a little buttery, but not over the top. Fries were crinkle cut, like they seem to be at every chicken finger restaurant in America. They were really hot and crispy, they tasted super fresh. Maybe a little seasoning would've helped them though. I would get some pepper to go with the salt. But what it all come down to is the chicken fingers. They were fine. Not thrilling, not disappointing, just fine. They were not the largest chicken fingers I've seen. The crispiness was there, but only if I looked for it. If I bit too quickly, I wouldn't hear any crunch at all. Also, they could have been hotter, temp wise, like the fries were. It's as if they made too many and I got what was left. At least they were not overly greasy, like I've had at other chicken finger joints. And they have that sauce, yes the typical chicken finger sauce, and it's a great dip for just about anything in the basket. The person at the drive thru was quite helpful and engaging. Though I was asked if I wanted the box combo, so they do a little suggestive selling over there. Nothing wrong with that. Truthfully, I try to limit my fast food. And if it doesn't blow my mind, I'm not likely to be back. And sadly, I was not blown away.

The drive-through is a little bit confusing because you have to kind of circle behind an urgent care. I did notice that the menu is very limited, there are no desserts and very limited side options. The unsweet tea was actually very good, the actual chicken is pretty much like anything you would get at any place that sells chicken tenders at a fast food place. Nothing really set any of it apart. The fries were OK, they do include Texas toast, which was pretty good. I think this is probably a one and done for us. Just nothing, really set it apart as far as the food went. The two ladies that were working the drive-through window were very friendly!

It's pricey but good quality and large portions. The sliders are huge. Don't mistake them for being small. Plenty of parking in a shared lot by the garage. Tables are easy to maneuver around with an assistive device. Would come back. I have 4 stars because it took a long time. I suppose good food takes time but it also takes the fast out of fast food to wait 15 + minutes for a small order. I'll be better prepared next time. I also deducted because the bathrooms were nasty and there was no toilet paper in the stall.

If they can keep the bathrooms clean and call the numbers a little louder, I think it would help a bit.

I took a seat at the outdoor bar and started with some smoked wings. 5 whole wings, so really 10 wings at most places. Meat was juicy enough, maybe I was hoping for more of a dry rub though. I used the tangy BBQ sauce and sweet BBQ sauce on them, and they certainly enhanced the flavor. I usually like mustard based sauces, but theirs was little more peppery than I wanted Then, per the bartender's recommendation, I ordered the brisket melt sandwich, and it was the undisputed highlight of the meal Muenster cheese, thinly sliced white onion, pickle chips, and a good load of horseradish sauce. The brisket had an amazing flavor, and all the other toppings came together beautifully. But that Union bakery bun is just another level. It's like brioche, it was so soft, but somehow a little more substantial. For my side dish, I went with the sweet potatoes with goat cheese, pepitas, and agave. This was just ok. For me, the potatoes could have been cooked longer, a little more crispness would have really helped. I did think the goat cheese was a unique flavor with a milder ingredient like a sweet potato, but it did work with the other ingredients pretty well.
