Great food, wonderful service, and definitely a place worth visiting!

I recently visited a small Peruvian restaurant located inside a shopping mall, which made parking…read morevery convenient. The space itself is cozy but well-organized, and we were able to get seated right away without any wait. The decor is inviting, and the music added a nice touch to the overall atmosphere. One thing I personally didn't care for was the menu being on a tablet at the table--it felt less straightforward than a traditional menu, especially when it came to understanding pricing. For our meal, I ordered the lomo saltado and substituted the usual white rice for chaufa. We also ordered salchipapa, tallarín verde with grilled chicken, and three sodas. Presentation-wise, all the dishes were beautifully plated, which definitely made a strong first impression. The tallarín verde was the standout of the meal--flavorful, well-balanced, and served in a just-right portion. The lomo saltado itself was good, but the chaufa rice was noticeably salty and ended up overpowering the rest of the dish. The salchipapa, on the other hand, was a bit disappointing. It was mostly French fries with only a small amount of sausage and very light on sauce. Where the experience really fell short was the billing. The prices displayed on the tablet did not match what we were ultimately charged. We were billed extra for grilled chicken and sirloin steak in the lomo saltado, even though no alternatives or pricing differences were clearly explained when ordering. The only additional charge that was communicated upfront was the substitution for chaufa rice. Transparency in pricing is important, and it was frustrating to see unexpected charges added at the end. For three entrées and three sodas, the total came out to around $100, including an automatic 18% gratuity. While the food had some highlights, the lack of clear pricing and unexpected charges--combined with a menu system I didn't find user-friendly--left a negative impression. Overall, while the ambiance and some dishes were enjoyable, the billing experience makes me hesitant to return.

The place is split in two and pretty spacious but tends to be packed so be ready for a wait. It's less welcoming than other Peruvian restaurants and if you're not used to that (non-American restaurants) it might feel like they're rude so beware if you bring any non-latinos. I keep coming back every once in a while because the food makes it worth it.

For one shrimp and broccoli, a small soup, two egg rolls, and a chicken and broccoli combo, the total came out to $45, which is completely overpriced for the portion size and quality. Nothing tasted special, and the value just isn't there at all. Definitely not worth the money. Won't be coming back.

With lots of calamari rings and whole butterflied shrimps all mixed in a rich creamy cheesy sauce. The fish was fork pull apart tender, sweet and flavorful. A cold bottled Mondelo and it was a solid meal that was more than I was able to finish, and I was hungry walking in and tried. 4 Stars - prompt friendly service, lively dining and good food 01033

I order the rachi and pancita combo, and my boyfriend ordered the pollo saltado. The pollo saltado came out incredibly quickly which can be good sometimes; however, in our case, the rest of the plates for the other five of us took another 15 minutes to come out, and we're a family that waits for everyone to have their food to eat. The pollo saltado was a very big portion, but it wasn't the best one we've had in the area - it had more of a homemade flavor rather than a restaurant one. The rachi and pancita were good but a bit burnt for my liking. If you go to Peru, the places that sell, this would serve that not as "well done" so this wasn't great in comparison. Overall, the bill came out to around $220 which to me seems a bit excessive . The service was your usual Peruvian service, so not great . We did get dessert. We got their dulce de Leche cake which was pretty flavorful. My only thing though is that Peruvian's called this manjar blanco, and not dulce de leche, so it never sits right with me when a Peruvian place call something by the name of Peruvian wouldn't call it by.

A suggestion to management is to be considerate with paying customers & accommodate reasonable requests. A tranquil dinner was ruined by exposure to unnecessary noise, it's not fun - especially for children. Either relocate speaker or patrons - a slightly lower volume for a small room will help too for patrons to enjoy dinner & acoustics

A Concerned Review of Pollos Mario…read more For years, my spouse and I have been loyal customers of Pollos Mario in Hackensack, NJ. We have enjoyed many meals here, from breakfast to lunch and dinner, supporting this establishment through economic ups and downs, a pandemic, and an influx of competition on Main Street. As one of the original Colombian restaurants in Hackensack, we have always hoped for the best for them, but recent experiences have left us concerned. While the food remains fresh and flavorful, Pollos Mario is no longer the only player in the game. With eight Colombian restaurants now within walking distance, the landscape has changed significantly. Recently, we found ourselves paying $32 for breakfast, which feels exorbitant. Reflecting on our past visits, it's evident that the portion sizes have shrunk considerably since pre-pandemic times. The arepa con queso, which used to cover the plate, now barely touches the edges. Both my spouse and I ordered Huevos Revueltos, priced at $13.90 each, which included scrambled eggs, a homemade potato, and corn cake with cheese. My spouse enjoyed a hot chocolate or coffee with their meal, while I was charged separately for my Aguapanela con Limón, a sugarcane lime drink that, upon receiving the bill, we discovered was not included with the breakfast and added an unexpected $5 charge for a tiny glass. This feels disproportionate for what is essentially a simple beverage. I understand that economic uncertainty is impacting many businesses, and restaurants need to find ways to stay afloat. However, the experience cannot come at the cost of customer satisfaction. It's disheartening that we now visit Pollos Mario only once or twice a month, down from two or three times a week. Price increases, smaller portions, and additional charges are not conducive to fostering loyalty among customers. I hope the owners take this feedback into consideration. We all want to see Pollos Mario thrive, but it's important to create an enjoyable experience without pricing customers out. -------------------- Una Reseña Preocupada sobre Pollos Mario Durante años, mi cónyuge y yo hemos sido clientes leales de Pollos Mario en Hackensack, NJ. Hemos disfrutado muchas comidas aquí, desde el desayuno hasta el almuerzo y la cena, apoyando este establecimiento a través de altibajos económicos, una pandemia y la llegada de competencia en Main Street. Como uno de los restaurantes colombianos originales en Hackensack, siempre hemos tenido la esperanza de lo mejor para ellos, pero las experiencias recientes nos han dejado preocupados. Aunque la comida sigue siendo fresca y sabrosa, Pollos Mario ya no es el único en el juego. Con ocho restaurantes colombianos ahora a poca distancia, el panorama ha cambiado significativamente. Recientemente, nos encontramos pagando $32 por el desayuno, lo cual se siente exorbitante. Al reflexionar sobre nuestras visitas pasadas, es evidente que las porciones han disminuido considerablemente desde los tiempos previos a la pandemia. La arepa con queso, que solía cubrir el plato, ahora apenas toca los bordes. Ambos pedimos Huevos Revueltos, con un precio de $13.90 cada uno, que incluía huevos revueltos, una papa casera y un pastel de maíz con queso. Mi cónyuge disfrutó de un chocolate caliente o café con su comida, mientras que a mí me cobraron por separado mi Aguapanela con Limón, una bebida de caña de azúcar y limón que, al recibir la cuenta, descubrimos que no estaba incluida con el desayuno y añadió un cargo inesperado de $5 por un vaso pequeño. Esto se siente desproporcionado para lo que es esencialmente una bebida simple. Entiendo que la incertidumbre económica está afectando a muchos negocios, y los restaurantes necesitan encontrar formas de mantenerse a flote. Sin embargo, la experiencia no puede venir a expensas de la satisfacción del cliente. Es desalentador que ahora visitemos Pollos Mario solo una o dos veces al mes, en comparación con dos o tres veces a la semana. Los aumentos de precios, las porciones más pequeñas y los cargos adicionales no son propicios para fomentar la lealtad entre los clientes. Espero que los propietarios consideren estos comentarios. Todos queremos ver a Pollos Mario prosperar, pero es importante crear una experiencia agradable sin precios desmedidos.
