    Order Details
    Carol S.

    I ordered take out for pick up tonight. The whole chicken special, one additional order of dark meat and a side order of yucca. The special was supposed to include 1 whole chicken, 3 large sides, 4 sauces, and 4 sodas. My son picked it up, and when he got home and opened the bag, and the 4 sodas were not there. The additional dark meat I ordered was a leg and thigh and it hardly had any meat on it. The dark meat was in a large box by itself and it looked sad and lonely. I had written special instructions asking for mild sauce only, but 2 of the 4 sauces were spicy. The whole chicken was good. If I ever order carryout from here again I will open the bag and check the order before leaving the restaurant.

    Authentic Peruvian food. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sides were delicious.

    Delicious Peruvian chicken in Silver Spring
    Samet D.

    Being completely honest, I did not see that coming-- the food at this Peruvian restaurant in downtown Silver Spring is DE-LI-CIOUS! First, you order on a self-help kiosk which is super easy to use, very similar to one of those McDonalds kiosks. Then you select what type of food you would like to place. They have dark and white chicken options which come with various sizes such as quarter, half, or whole. It was a lunch time so I got a half dark chicken with one hot sauce, one Jalapeño sauce. As a side, I went with medium size French fries. Everything costed me as low as $14.57 including taxes. That is an amazing price! Plus the chickens were freshly cooked actual Peruvian quality. Additionally, a fun fact: for those customers who leave a review on Yelp or Google, they give a complimentary drink as a gesture. Overall, my experience have been great. I would definitely come back for another half dark. Special thanks to Lisseth, the young lady who helped me select my meal and suggested that Jalapeño was way to go! Thanks a lot.

    There is something seriously wrong with the corporate guidance that Crisp and Juicy chain gets. It doesn't seem like they train the units properly in organizing their interior especially their furniture. I have observed this in most of their stores. It's a shame because the food they serve has good potential(they use real chicken without breading and it tastes good), the service staff are always nice, the service is quick. I do like their food and the many options that they provide. Since the service is so fast, it has that potential for customers who can come and have a quick bite but the interior is so uninviting, nobody wants to eat there. And don't bank completely on take out and online orders. It's a given that online 3rd party sites take a big cut of the profit making your otherwise low cost food more expensive for the end customer. Food is Inexpensive, tasty, quick and relatively healthy for a fast food place. So use it to your advantage and give a little attention to the interior, you ll do great. One other thing, the menu on the wall has no prices making people touch the sheet you put near the checkout. People want contactless options these days. I ll post more pictures soon but I want to get the word out quick before I forget.

    Please avoid this place at all costs. I stopped by Sunday night (1/15) and I received the worst customer service. I ordered the 1/4 chicken combo with a salad and beans and rice and noticed that I only received one salad dressing so I asked for another one. The guy at the front refused to give me one and so I asked him why and he said that I have to pay for it. After explaining that I wouldn't mind paying for it, he still told me flat out no, which was very strange and extremely rude. No explanation whatsoever. I don't usually go to this restaurant because I have experienced bad service in the past, but it was late and nothing else was open. I live right across the street at the Pearl so it is very convenient to just walk over. However, I just can't understand why I was treated in such a poor manner. If I didn't want to pay for the sauce, that would be one thing. But I offered to pay and he still said no and was extremely dismissive. I hate to think that it has anything to do with race, but I find it hard to believe that it doesn't. Please save your hard earned money, especially if you're Black. I am telling all of my family, friends, neighbors, and sorority sisters who live in the area and/or visit me not to ever go here. Also, please note that the salad was thrown together and wasn't sealed all the way, which is a health hazard considering it was in a plastic bag exposed. I took a few photos of the guy for anyone who needs to see who he is. I really hope he is held accountable.

    Always great chicken and well seasoned. I always get their black beans and rice and the plantains. Both are a delicious add to the Peruvian chicken. I'm excited they have FINALLY put real vegetables on their menu with mixed vegetables and I hope they expand out to some more like green beans and broccoli.

    The chicken is pretty juicy and the yucca is crisp - the dipping sauce quite delish.

    The chicken is always great and can be smelled a mile away. I enjoy it while walking my dog, even when I'm not getting dinner.

    I came for the fried chicken but fell in love with the BBQ!!! Actually it was all delivered but you…read moreknow what I mean. I'll get the only fail out of the way. The Chicken tenders weren't tender and the coating was over-salted. The full rack of BBQ Pork ribs was a winner, tender and meaty with great flavor. The Slow-smoked Chicken is delicious and a nice, moist change from the usual chicken treatments. The Smoked Chicken Wings were great too. I wouldn't get the Texas Beef Brisket or the Carolina Pulled Pork again, but they weren't bad, just lots of other choices that were better! The sides here are stand-outs too. I almost didn't get the vegetarian Collard Greens since I love collards cooked with meat but these were delicious -- they never made it to the microwave, they were so vinegary-good when I sampled them cold lol! The Mac & Cheese was good and cheesy. The baked beans were good but again vegetarian where I'd prefer meat included and I didn't care for the sweet sauce. The Skillet Cornbread is the best I've had, slightly sweet with a good corn flavor that made me decide to buy a WHOLE skillet rather than just the generously portioned slice next time, especially since it's such a good value. I do regret not trying the coleslaw and potato salad so again, next time. The little rolls are tasty too, moist and slightly sweet but it's a pity they aren't burger-size so you can make a sandwich with all that delicious meat and sides.

    Had the legendary spicy chicken and it was delicious, hot, and huge with a thick crusted coating…read more In addition to the collard greens with a garlicky and apple cider vinegar hint. I don't recall any meat in the greens. And, the Mac and cheese, I enjoyed the texture, but wish the flavor profile had sharp cheddar cheese, but it was still good. Making my way through the list of things worth trying so far --the visit score is 2 & 0!

I ordered 2 whiting plates. One with collard greens with smoked turkey and fries and the other with Mac n cheese and rice and gravy. The fries were good. The whiting was fried to perfection. I also like the greens (I'm a southerner so I'm a bit hard to please). Everything was reasonably priced. The restaurant had nice music playing and has a bit of a lounge feel with the dark walls. It wasn't crowded on a Friday during lunch time. I'd go back for sure.

There is some parking in front and there is a parking garage that is within walking distance. I ordered wings and a meatloaf platter that came with two sides. I ordered lemon pepper and the sticky wings. The wings were crispy but lacked the lemon pepper flavor. I wish the stinky wings had more of the sauce on them. The meatloaf was seasoned well. You could get smothered with gravy or their bbq sauce. For my sides I ordered the greens and mashed potatoes with gravy. The greens were seasoned well. I don't know if I would go back, simply because it was really far out for me. If you are in the area I would say am check it out. The staff and service was amazing.
