Poor customer service, they don't take phone orders to dine in. They state " if you don't show up in time, the food will go bad"....Not a clean place to DINE IN. What if i show up and they don't have what i want?? Or they make me to wait longer than expected?! read more

This place is great. Very authentic and everything I've tried has been amazing. Can't go wrong with the lomo saltado or ceviche if you're a fan. The ladies who work here have great customer service. Don't sleep on this spot! read more

Food was ok,even though I asked for my egg to be over easy,it was too cooked,the meat was ok,a little bit dry what really got me was 2 things,the lady seemed to be the only one working,so there was no tp in the bathroom,which i told her,and after ordering my food i asked her for 1 pollo a la brasa to go,she started telling me while walking away (there's no much) a little rude,the ambience definitely needs a remo! The restaurant is pretty big,but it's lacking in that area! read more

Love this little place! Food is great especially for the price. The vibe is a little fast-foodish, but they always have good salsa music playing and they have good Peruvian beer. Mostly though it is a family owned husband and wife who seem like very nice people and I am happy to give them my business:) read more

Pollo saltado was great, rice was a very good portion. They got different Peruvian dishes that everyone has to try.

Great customer service, friendly,Family owned restaurant, Peruvian food is so good , I always get cau cau spicy, seafood fried rice , and seafood saltado, food is always delicious and consistent. Every time I come is always hot and ready . The food taste is consistent delicious. read more

The rotisserie chicken (pollo a la brasa) is outstanding! Very authentic flavor. The Huancahina aji is delicious. Price is fair as well. Location is a bit tricky to spot, but don't give up, the chicken is so worth it. Highly recommend. read more

The food is great, but the place doesn't have any air conditioning so you will sweat especially during the summer and also they charge for a soda refill which is kind of strange. I always come in for their green spaghetti sauce and their fries! read more

El Pollo Kri-ollo - Peruvian Near Me - Corona, California

First visit and must admit I was a bit skeptical at first since it is a bit hidden, and not eye catching from the exterior. Was in the area and checked out the reviews and seemed like it is a good choice for Peruvian cuisine. The arroz con pollo came with fried rice and a side of pickled red onions which gave an awesome tanginess to the entire meal. The pollo saltado (Chicken sautéed in vegetables and crispy French fry cut potatoes in an amazing tangy soy/teriyaki kind of sauce) is also a must and the portion served will not let anyone down. Not truly bothered by the overall appearance being outdated, however a nice upgrade could real create a beyond pleasant visit to the place. The waitress serving us was joyful and attentive through our visit, despite the rush of customers that emerged around closing time. Too bad this place is far and I cannot make this a regular place for me to dine, but will definitely stop by when in the area again. read more

This update was prompted for a multitude of reasons, but the best one is, our continuing enjoyment of their cuisine, and our continued discoveries on the menu. They have gone through the rigors of opening a new business and have met and exceeded our expectations. The owners, Maritza and Miguel, a couple from Peru, are solely responsible for the kitchen and cuisine. They are the heart and soul of this restaurant and will bend over backwards to make you feel welcome and satisfied. They have recently added Idania as their warm and eager-to-please server. She is a welcome addition to an already successful business. First and foremost, I come for the ceviche. I cannot eat here without ordering this. It is made using Swai, a very non-fishy white fish served in a wonderful cilantro/chili/sour orange juice marinade that chemically cooks the fish. I have been known to drink the marinade after already engorging myself on this dish. Shameful. Served with conchita, yam, yellow Peruvian corn, and plantain chips, it is something you simply must try. There is plenty for two or more to share, or for one as a complete, healthy meal. The conchita is a traditional side dish, a Peruvian answer to popcorn, large kernel of corn that have been fried and salted. I am warning you, it is addictive. They have a very great understanding of how to produce a beautiful rotisseried chicken, their signature dish, that is both flavorful and moist. Brining first makes it almost fool-proof, then coating it with a lovely herbal paste (cilantro, oregano, lime????) and cooking it so slowly it doesn't dare turn dry makes it perfect. They continually cook small batches throughout the day to ensure the best quality. Highly recommended. Avoid the disappointment: call ahead to make sure there is some ready for you. Or order something different...not a bad idea either. The chicken is served with a side of the most amazing fries. They are fresh cut, fried in a delicate oil to perfection, and lightly salted. You will find yourself having naughty thoughts about these fries, I guarantee. If they have made some the day you come, please taste their green chicken and rice soup. It is rich and flavorful and tummy-wonderful! The green-ness is from the herb, cilantro, a welcome addition to any dish in my opinion. And then there is the Tamale Peruano, a must try item, with a pork and egg filling encased in a moist, tender, flavorful masa (made with lard) that will have you scraping the plate. It is perfection, and they make them here from scratch. I would kill for these. This is served with a heap of Salsa de Criolla, a lime juice marinated onions/tomato/cilantro "salad". We have had a great Lomo Saltado that came with those freshly cut and superbly fried potatoes. And the breaded beef steak, similar to a Milanesa, is very good, also offered with fries and rice. Last but not least, I love their baked empanadas. Again, the pastry is made from scratch, slightly sweet, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The ground beef filling is brilliant with its rich complex flavors of raisins, hard boiled egg, herbs and onions. We have not tried the chicken filling. Never could get past the beef. But, please avoid disappointment. You MUST order a day ahead. These are made to order, no extras in the freezer. You will never go back to "the other guy" after tasting these. Now, if this doesn't excite you enough, here is my last tip. Try their authentic cold beverages. There are two that are made in-house and they are exceptional. The Chicha Morada (a purple corn, pineapple and (I am guessing) a clove brew that I swear tastes like Christmas in a cup) and the Maracuya (a passion fruit drink that is so perfect, you can really enjoy the pure taste of that marvelous fruit). So good, highly recommended, not too sweet, and neither the least bit weird. We are very excited to have El Pollo Kri-ollo in our neighborhood. I encourage you to come and experience some of the best, from the best. read more

I've never had Peruvian food and holy moly, I like crave it now after eating here! We had the steak with veggies and rice and the pesto pasta with steak and both were amazing. The half chicken was probably the best though! Service was good too! Will definitely be back read more

Dine available (4 tables) Food was tasty (ceviche micro, lomo saltado, chaufa de pollo). Server was friendly. Will definitely be coming back read more

Bomb! Bomb! Bomb! Ceviche is a must!‍‍‍‍ i give it a solid 10 definitely going back! Uff

Food is definitely 5 full stars, but the ambience leaves a lot to be desired. This place is so delicious. Everything we had was seasoned to perfection and just so tasty. Beef was tender, and the surprise dish that everyone seemed to rave over was the seafood fried rice. The only drawback is the actual place, which appears pretty rundown and kind of depressing. In fact, I miss the food even as I type this Yelp, but just thinking about sitting in the restaurant itself is a bit of a turn off. We went for an early dinner, but as we were leaving, a steady stream of customers were making their way in on a Friday night. Definitely a delicious dinner spot. If you've never had Peruvian food, this place will definitely make you a fan. read more

This looks like a mom and pop restaurant. The food was amazing. We are from miami so trying to find some Hispanic food in California is not easy unless you want Mexican cuisine. But Kri-ollo was perfect the food was delicious and the service was great. The food came out pretty quick. Even the music was good! read more

Wow. I have a newfound love for Peruvian food. This is my second time trying it in a week & all I have to say is: I. Can't. Stop. It's so good!!! I've only ever tried the lomo saltado and don't think I'll try anything else until I get tired. The veggies alone in the sauce. Perfection. And the green sauce, TO DIE FOR!! Service is great considering it is only one person trying to keep up with everyone, but she's doing great! And apologized for the wait, which I appreciated. Since this is near my house, I will definitely be back. read more

El Pollo Kri-ollo - Lomo saltado - Peruvian Near Me - Corona, California

My husband is Peruvian and he swears that this little place knows how to cook proper Peruvian food. Ceviche is fresh. What I also like about how they pack their to-go orders is that they separate the sauce in a little cup to avoid spillage. Extra points for that! Whether it's ceviche or lomo saltado, that extra TLC to make sure your Peruvian food doesn't get messy during travel makes me appreciate them even more. We've also tried their causa rellena, papa a la huancaina & aji de gallina. We are very pleased with all of it! Always our go-to Peruvian food here in Corona. What a gem! read more

The employees were very friendly and the food was delicious! So happy to find a Peruvian place near home. Must try! Also, try Inca Kola!

Very pleased with the food here. We ordered the Lomo Salatado, Pollo Salatado and the Tallarines Verdes. The serving sizes were perfect, the depth of flavor was pleasing to the palette and the spice level didn't disappoint. Our entire office team was happy with their orders and we will be going back again in the near future. read more

Not bad , Compared to other Peruvian restaurants in LA. The food is definitely cooked and prepared different t than what I'm use to . They did substitute all calamari for the jallea. Overall I was hangry it it satisfied . They were open fir New Years and a steady flow of locals in and out . read more

The food was served quickly. Service was quick. Staff was helpful. Food reminded me of a home cooked meal. Not fancy at all. I would recommend the Lomo Saltado, Tallarine Saltado, Tallarine Verde and the Egg fried chauffa. read more

2nd Vist and still very good authentic Peruvian food. Loma Saltado/ steak,rice with cooked vegetables was perfect! The sauce that you put with the dish was a little spicy but really good. I still say it's a little pricey however with today's market $15 for a home cooked meal with steak is not terrible read more

Little hole in the wall but I love the food. The ceviche is amazing and the Pescado a Lo Macho. I come here at least twice a month. See you guys next week read more

Food is good traditional Peruvian style. Steak is good. It's never busy But cook time is lengthy. Dining area has no personality.

This little hole in the wall Gem is super delicious! You won't find a Peruvian Restaurant in Corona so if you are looking to get your Lomo Saltado or Tallarin Verde fix this place will not disappoint. The customer service is hit n miss however the food will always compensate for it. The owners are the cooks and take great pride on their flavorful food. Don't forget to ask for their off menu items they have for that day. Today it was Chicharon sliders with toasted sweet potato slices. read more

Food tastes great. Restaurant is outdated, but quality of food and price are worth it. Restaurant was empty when we arrived at 5 pm on a weekday. Some pick up orders started showing up after us. Big selection of desserts. Good music video selection on tv. read more

So our local peruvian restaurant closed, I searched yelp for best peruvian near me. This place had 4 star rating and we went this past weekend. The restaurant is dingy, dated and without air conditioning. I could get past the air but not how dirty it was. The food was very good which made me so sad. I wanted to love it and comeback but i kept thinking how bad is the kitchen if the front is this bad. They took a while to serve us, however, I've grown to be patient. A couple young girls were up front, they were kind but low motivation. The to go orders from were steady, perhaps locals know to go is better than dine in. Too bad. read more

Our family loves this place! This was one of our favorite carb meal spots. Unfortunately for me I can't enjoy it like I use to. There must be a form of gluten in the seasoning or some part of the food prep because I get a bad "gluten attack" within hours of eating. With that being said if you don't have a gluten intolerance or celiac and you enjoy Peruvian food this is a great local spot to try. Very friendly service read more

Tallarin verde is so good. Brought my mom here and we both loved it. Big fan of Peruvian food so I'll definitely be back

Worst service I have had in a restaurant in a very long time. We showed up more than an hour before closing with a party of 7, and apparently we bothered the waitress by making her have to work. Had to ask for waters 3 times, which were never refilled. Server rolled her eyes at us several times as we asked for things like a fork or napkin. I am never going back to this restaurant. She offered no suggestions for food, and took forever to even take our order to begin with. The food was pretty average Peruvian food, I had lomo Saltado, my wife had pollo saltado, and both were pretty good. Not good enough to overcome the horrible service though. Don't waste your time trying this place if you want service. read more

Have eaten here several times, and there are not many Peruvian restaurants in the I.E. We've been to others towards L.A and in FL and the quality and taste of the food is up there with the others. Always a great meal! Service very friendly. Portions are good sized and we usually go home with leftovers. Our favorite items are the seafood dishes! This time we ordered the chicken saltado, seafood fried rice & mixed seafood and rice. Also some fried yucca as an appetizer. You must try the green spicy sauce, which goes with everything! read more

The place is pretty dirty from the inside (dining area) not gonna lie, I decided to order the Ceviche because it seemed to be popular but boy was that the worse idea gave me horrible food poisoning !! I'm so disappointed because I was ready to try something new. Im assuming it was not prepared properly plus the dinning are looked very dirty. Please if you eat there just make sure you be careful with the Ceviche. Other than that the staff was friendly. read more

A little dirty but the food is decent lol. The soda machine is dirty do not get any soda the front area of the service is so dirty. Overall they need to clean this restaurant. read more

This place is delicious! I've been coming here for 2 years and the foos is consistently great! It's a family owned business that prepares excellent food and takes pride in its business. I've tried the arroz de Mariscos and the saltado de mariscos. Both dishes are on point with other flavors. My husband loves the ceviche and the chicken. The green aji is spicy and tasty! Beware the chicken runs out. read more
