Amazing and reasonable. Family meal would have fed a party if 5. It fed us. I have two big boys who eat a lot so I also ordered the pasta with half chicken. Didn't need to order it. Pasta is with spinach but had a pesto flavor. When we are in the area we will be back. read more

The vibe was great inside. Felt super homey and the staff was nice. That said, the food could have been better. We ordered some saltados (fish, beef) and it was lacking some flavor. The fries were also overcooked and soggy. The plantains were also overdone, maybe it's just a preference but I prefer them to be lighter. I would give this place another try, I'm sure there are better items on the menu. read more

Higo Chicken - Full Whole Rotisserie Chicken With Two Sides and extra rice - Peruvian Near Me - La Habra, California

Great food and service! Loved the chicken and soup. Well seasoned. Service was fast and price was great.

I've always had Lomo Saltado at Asian restaurants, so I figured trying it at an actual Peruvian spot would give me the "real deal." The flavor was definitely different from what I'm used to. Typically I expect the steak to lean a little sweet, but here it was more on the salty, savory side. I'm guessing that's the more authentic version? Either way, the dish was enjoyable overall, though I do wish the fries were crispier to balance everything out. We also tried the Causa Rellena, mainly because it looked pretty, like a giant macaron ice cream. Lol. But it wasn't really for me. The texture and flavor reminded me of eating potato salad topped with thick mashed potatoes, which just wasn't my thing. Still, it was an interesting experience trying traditional Peruvian dishes, and I'm glad I finally gave this place a shot. read more

Ordered UberEats pickup here for dinner today after over 6 years of when I had this place last. The chicken is still incredibly flavorful and juicy. I love the Yellow and Green sauce they give. The sauce is creamy, fresh, spicy, perfect to go along with my favorite Tallarin Saltado with Beef and the chicken platter. I'm glad this place is still around and I am going to frequent this location often. Food pickup was also very on point, the food was ready before my schedule time so that's a plus. read more

By far the best Lomo Saltado I've ever had. Been obsessed ever since. 10/10 portions, flavor, options, vibes, staff, etc. Great spot, hope they continue to succeed! read more

Highly recommend! Small hole in the wall but super authentic and very clean! The food tasted amazing and the service was friendly and fast! We had the Camarones Saltado, and Pollo a La Brasa combo with fried rice! It was so flavorful! We took our kids and they enjoyed everything. Plates are large enough to share. Their green salsa was so good and of course we had Inka Cola! Would definitely return and recommend! read more

Higo Chicken - - TALLARIN A LA HUANCAINA CON LOMO AL JUGO - ARROZ CHAUFA CON POLLO A LA BRASA - Peruvian Near Me - La Habra, California

So I've come by Higo Chicken a lot more these days since my coworkers recommended this place and placed an order for me. I wish I could pronounce the things I order from them but my pronunciation is way off and got myself into a bind when the owner thought I wanted two orders of the TALLARIN A LA HUANCAINA 1/2 POLLO but instead I really wanted one order with two dark meats. He was kind of him to not hold me to the second order. I did order the Lomo Saltada with beef and I wanted that cooked medium rare but when I got home it was cooked medium well but it still tasted good and ate it all. I'll have to learn how to order from my coworker next time. There is seating inside this small restaurant but I opt to take out each time. Overall they are a friendly bunch of workers. Parking is sufficient for this tiny place and you can park out on the street if needed. read more

My husband ordered some food for some clients and brought home some extra. Everything was so delicious. I don't normally write reviews but this spot was worth a mention. He ordered the lomo saltado, roasted chicken, arroz chaufa de pollo and beans. My girls loved the tallarin verde. Everything is full of flavor. The green sauce is prime! Will definitely be coming here more. read more

OMG ! I tried this for the very first time on Tuesday ! Oh my ! Such amazing taste in the cuisine. The flavors are so delicious and the dish looks very appealing.

The customer service was good . I will come again soon to try more options on the menu. read more

Higo Chicken - Aguadito de Pollo Soup and Tallarin a la Huancaina con Lomo and Chicha Morada - Peruvian Near Me - La Habra, California

The food was good, very good flavors and good portion size dishes. Service was great, fast and very friendly, our waiter was awesome and they were even going to make me a special plate they did not have on the menu if i wanted to wait 20 min , i thanked them it declined. Aji was delicious and the rotisserie chicken was very good. I had the tallarin and it's a thinner noodle than other Peruvian places but good. The ceviche was awesome, and the fish didn't even taste like fish, it melted as you ate. It's a smaller restaurant, very simple and clean and they have a tv with the games playing as well, you're either eating, watching some tv or listening to the awesome bachata they play. Parking is also Tight, very few spots so you may have to park on the side street next to the restaurant. read more

Bomb.com! Is the sum of this restaurant's quality. This place is a true hole-in-the-wall gem that you only hear about through word of mouth. We've been here twice already, and it has never disappointed. I love the Peruvian seafood ceviche--the seafood is incredibly fresh, the corn is perfectly cooked (not too soft), and the seasoning is just right, without being overly sour. I also got to try their Lomo Saltado, and it's one of the best I've ever had! My boyfriend is Peruvian, and he approves of this place. They use a wok to impart a wonderful smokiness to the beef, and even the onions are perfectly sautéed. read more

Food: 4* Service: 5* Ambiance: 3* Located in a small strip mall off Whittier blvd, this place serves good Peruvian fare. I ordered papas la huancaina (boiled potatoes covered in a creamy sauce) and lomo saltado (beef salted with French fries, onions, tomatoes). Both were really good. The service was excellent, friendly and attentive read more

Came back and again impressed by their food. The servers are sooooo nice! They are also always checking and we're so kind. The food is well flavored and great Peruvian for the area. I'd argue better than Mario's and LA institution for Peruvian. read more

Best Peruvian food I've had in California so far. It really reminded me of my time in Peru. I ordered the arroz verde con pollo and it tasted exactly how I imagined with the soft boiled potato and green sauce the restaurant provides on the side.

Higo Chicken is my top favorite, go-to Japanese Peruvian spot in La Habra. You'll find this fantastic restaurant nestled in the far corner of a tiny plaza on 722 E Whittier Blvd. The inside of Higo Chicken holds a handful of tables in a welcoming, simple, pastel colored interior. Equally as pleasant has been the greeting and service of the staff during my visits. FOOD: True to its name, their rotisserie chicken is a headliner on the menu. The chicken skin is beautifully roasted which gives it a bit of smokiness to accent the enticing medley of seasoning. The meat is wonderfully succulent as well. Drizzle on their aji verde sauce (cilantro, garlic, lime, chilies, etc.) to enhance the chicken with a zesty, aromatic heat. You can get a whole, half, or quarter size with a side of your choice. I got their Tallarin Verde con Pollo a la Brasa ($14) - it comes with a quarter chicken piece and a spaghetti with cheese, basil sauce, and spinach. I'm hungry just recalling about it. I appreciate it came with a complimentary Papa a la Huancaina - potato with a spicy cheese sauce. Their Lomo Saltado ($19) is also very solid with thick fries, chunks of steak, and grilled onions & tomatoes. I've taken a couple of friends and have turned them into fans of this place. Definitely give this place a visit! read more

We just left the restaurant. On Sundays they close at 8:00pm. I walked in at 7:28pm. One of the workers I am assuming the son of the owner. Told us "we close at 8" we responded are you still serving, he replied "yes" We sat and order our food. 15 minutes later. The young girl started sweeping around us and the young guy cleaning tables and spraying cleaning solution. We felt rushed eating our food. Horrible customer service. If they want to leave exactly at 8pm then stop serving at 7:00 This restaurant is erased from our Peruvian restaurant's list! read more

My family and I's favorite Peruvian restaurant. My parents were born and raised and Peru and they are very particular and picky on their Peruvian food. This place blew them away!

I'm a rotisserie chicken snob and not very active on yelp reviews, but I felt the need to leave a review as a first timer at Higo Chicken. Ordered the chicken special, with beans/veggies for sides and it was very tasty. Good flavors all around, beans/veggies paired well with the charred chicken. I finished the chicken to the bone along with the sides and I'm already planning my next visit. Highly recommend if you're looking for good rotisserie chicken and delicious Peruvian beans! read more

Great service and food - so thankful a friend had brought me here. When you arrive, don't be put off by the unsuspecting plaza location. Once you're inside you'll be greeted by the friendly staff and aroma from the kitchen that will have you wanting to come back. Every dish we tried down to their famous chicken was delicious. I was told they also have other restaurants that I will need to try. read more

Higo Chicken is one of the spots in my rotation of restaurants. Chicken is in their name. It is the item I always order. I always get their half rotisserie chicken (pollo a la brassa) with chaufa. I would order some of their other items, but, my wife won't let me. Their chicken is always nicely marinated and cooked perfectly. It is not too salty like at other places that I've been too. Higo is the place that introduced me to chaufa, or Peruvian fried rice. It's a little different from the Chinese fried rice that I am used to. Their chaufa is basically an egg fried rice with green onions and bell peppers. Their chaufa, along with their chicken makes for a great meal. Service has always been good. The parking lot is very small, and occasionally is full because of the bar a few doors down. I like it and will continue to come back. read more

We went to Higo chicken with dear friends after the movies this past weekend, and let me tell you, it knocked my socks off. For my better half and I plus our little guy we ordered: ***Ceviche de Pescado: This was fish marinaded to perfection served with cooked sweet potato slices and hominy. This was very different and special. ***Pollo Saltado: This was so incredibly flavorful. The only bummer was it had a whole lot of french fries and not a lot of chicken. ***Side salad: This was surprisingly delightful and I would 100% order again. it was fresh and whatever the dressing was is so yummy. ***Plantains: These were the perfect fried and sweet treat. We also got to try the Yucca a la Huancaina which is fried yucca with a side of cheese sauce. This was good but I don't think I'd get it again. The green sauce that they bring to the table deserves it's own paragraph. Man, that is so good. If you don't know why it's so good, please don't ask. It will ruin the illusion that this might be a healthy sauce when you learn the base ingredient. We will definitely be back! read more

Acabo comer Lomo saltado, el sabor estaba más o menos pero estaba nadando en aceite, no lo pude acabar por me dio asco. Otro día comí papa ala Huancaina, no tenía sabor de la Huancaina. El arroz verde está más o menos de sabor El pollo es lo que mejor preparan, es sabroso, y las papas son bien crujientes. La atención es buena, no me quejo read more

This food tastes like home. It tastes just like how my grandmother would cook and it's amazing. I've eaten at many other Peruvian restaurants and have always walked away with the "that was just ok" feeling but Higo Chicken is literally the best. I've been back 3x within two weeks of going my first time. The staff is great and super friendly + the service is great. Super relaxed environment and is good for an informal sit down to tear down an amazing meal! Literally everything on the menu is fire! read more

This looked really interesting and it met expectations! The chicken is very good quality, more than flavorful enough, juicy, not dry at all. Personally I like normal noodles over the pesto/green ones. Green noodles I've had in asian cuisine and it doesn't really prove to be necessarily better although I do think a lot of people will like it. It is a contrast with the chicken. The potato covered in yellow sauce doesn't taste like anything Have authentic drink options as well, not my thing since I'm not a soda or drink person of ANY sort (I'm really odd). One is cinnamon/sugary and it's quite novel. Other two people enjoyed their dishes thoroughly. There's lots of permutations of things so make sure you narrow down what specific combination you want. read more

I was looking for a place to eat while at work. I stumbled across this place randomly and man was it well worth it. First off the place looks like a hole in the wall so you know it has to be good, the customer service was great, the guy helping me was very nice and didn't come bother me every 2 seconds asking me how the food was. Speaking of the food, let me tell you I've had a lot of Peruvian and this is definitely up there with the top 3. The meat is tender and juicy, the fries and delectable and the juices mix perfectly with the rice. I'm telling you this is a must try if you're ever in the area. Also the green sauce is perfect, slight spice and very tasty. Pricing is very reasonable as well. read more
