    Great flavors!!! Reasonably priced!! Creative menu, good customer service with Good food, what else can you ask for! Also it says they close at 8pm But they stay open later. You can dine in but the area is kind of small.

    My chicken arrived with no skin and some meat missing. Totally unacceptable!

    My chicken arrived with no skin and some meat missing. I had to finish cooking my fries. Totally unacceptable!

    Food has always been great however the fountain drink machine never has ice and this time 4 out of 5 flavors were out. Very disappointed. They do good business and won't fix things .

    I've been searching for a Peruvian rotisserie chicken place in the Baltimore area and I've found it! Chicken and veggies were well seasoned. Price point was affordable and customer service was awesome. Will definitely return. The green and mild sauce were a great consistency.

    The chicken isn't cheap per se but it explodes with flavor. You've probably spent more for worse chicken.

    I have been to the Dundalk Chicken Rico location about three times now. I have yet to have a disappointing experience here. I just happened to check in and saw that the reviews are surprisingly low. I wanted to rectify the absurdly low rating. For what it is, you'd be hard pressed to find a better deal. The food is virtually exactly the same as the 5 star Yelp-reviewed Highlandtown location with options not even available there (the outstanding green beans, for instance). The prices are lower, the staff is friendlier, and the place is cleaner, and the lines move faster. The chicken is spectacular, side dish portions are generous and even the veggies are flavorful. If you're measuring Chicken Rico against Morton's then it does not compare. But if you pit this location against other fast casual dining establishments, you won't find many better than this Chicken Rico.

    This restaurant has really great food! I had the chicken burrito and it was delicious! The two sauces that came with the burrito were delicious as well. I will be back to try more items.

    Food is always fresh and delicious! Amazing taste! Not the same establishment as Super Chicken Rico. Chicken Rico is the best!

    The very best rotisserie chicken ever! The green beans are awesome too! A half chicken with 2 sides for $10 can't be beat.

    Food is great! Had a variety of the sides offered and have never been disappointed. The sauce is the best part! Quick and easy meal.

This just adds something to the experience that you typically won't get elsewhere. If this place were in a different spot with more elevated furnishings, a wine program and fancy marketing it would be double, maybe triple the price. This is an approachable and extraordinarily delicious tasting menu from a talented chef with a support team that executes way above what you might expect. Ring the doorbell, stop in and have one of the better dinners you will find in Baltimore.

I did not feel rushed until the desert course was served with the check. The variety of the dishes was fun to experience; each course was very different. Puerto 511 does really well with seafood. My favorites courses were the Ceviche Amazonico and the Tamalito Verde. The flavors were incredible. The Pulpo en su Causa was also a very interesting dish. The combination of ingredients and the inclusion of a cold mashed potato component were both innovative. I was disappointed with the other courses, though. The veal was tough, the lamp chop was tough, and the desert was not very flavorful. The quinoa flan and the passionfruit ice cream did not match very well in flavor or texture. The restaurant building itself was ok. The ambiance did not indicate fine dining to me. The service was not very personable. I would like to come back sometime in a different season, when there is a new menu. But overall, I would say Puerto 511 is definitely a dining experience worth trying.

We ordered a salad, lomo empanada, and 1/2 chicken meal with brussels sprouts & carrots and black beans. To drink we got a chica morada. The lomo empanada had a great flavor and texture which was great to split as an opener. The 1/2 chicken was flavorful with both the light and the dark meat worth trying. The chicken was halved right in from of us with a large cleaver and the freshness was notable. The brussel sprouts were plentiful, crispy if a pinch oily, and with a slight sweetness that went well with the chicken. The beans were fine; likely the only thing we would not get again. Both the mild (white) and medium (green) sauces went very well with both the empanadas and the chicken. The chicha morada tasted of corn, cloves and cinnamon and was a nice sweet treat. Overall, a wonderfully quick spot with great flavor in the inner harbor.

The empanada was filling and well priced, and the tres leches was moist and rich. I have to come back again to try their entrees and sides!

This new location is spacious, clean, and has great food. I got the quarter chicken platter with white meat, brussel sprouts, and yucca fries. Each platter comes with sides and each side looks so good you'll definitely have a hard time deciding. I also got some green sauce and white sauce too. The chicken was super flavorful, moist, and fell right off the bone. It was sooo good! The brussels had a surprising kick to them and were nice and tender. The yucca fries took an extra few minutes to come out since they were frying them up fresh for us and it was worth the wait! They have several locations but the food doesn't taste like a chain, if you know what I mean. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone craving some delicious Peruvian style chicken.

Oh and I also got plantains (which they initially forgot but thankfully I checked the bag before I left.) Bf liked his bowl. He's been here a couple of times before and always enjoys. This was my first time and might have to head on back to chipotle lol. Which sucks because I wanted authentic Hispanic food. The flavors were somewhat there. The plantain wasn't ripe!!! How does one fry unripe plantain :-( :-( :-( I might, key word MIGHT, try again.
