Woah, I read some article about Loli Farms being one of the best rotisserie chickens in the city and not gonna lie, I was mildly skeptical. Have heard lots of other rotisserie chickens being touted as "one of the best" and they wind up being dry or just okay. Today, I came here on the way home to try it out and I'm so glad I did. The chicken is AMAZING--smoky, juicy, and tender without being overbrined or overcooked. Even the breast meat, after sitting in a hot container for 45 minutes, was delicious. The chicken travels well (fries do not of course) and I'm definitely getting delivery for lazy weeknight dinners. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, even when I asked about their drinks cause I couldn't find a menu for it. The passionfruit is quite tart but so flavorful! I loved the chincha morada. I'm not familiar enough with Peruvian food to speak on authenticity but this was just GOOD food. Got a side of fried plantains and garlic fries--plantains are perfectly caramelized on the outside, yummy! Garlic fries are VERY garlicky and the fries themselves are on the softer side, kind of like Wing Stop fries. This was my first time here and the parking situation was quite interesting--no parking lines, try not to block others in, a real parking free for all. There's maybe 6 tables inside and another 4-5 in a covered patio outside.
Such a hidden gem! I've come 2 weekends in a row!!! The chicken is super tender, juicy, and flavorful (even the breast!!!!) I shared a whole chicken with my partner and we still take home leftovers. The first time, we got the cucumber salad, yucca fries, and plantains!! Delicious! Especially with the green sauce and the white sauce. The workers are also super kind and work to get the food out asap! The second time I went, I tried the sweet potato fries instead of the yucca fries. Still delicious, but I appreciated how unique the texture of the yucca fries were. Also! They have a fridge full of peruvian drinks in the back. The passionfruit juice is super refreshing
I'm usually in California at least 2+ times a week as it's my regular route into the office. This building was formerly a mini mart and sat vacant for quite some time. Then remodeling took place and Loli Farms was born. Took us a while before we walked in to try as we had no idea what they served until it popped up as a recommendation. Have never had Peruvian rotisserie chicken until the day we tried it. The chicken was moist and certain parts of it were very well seasoned (a bit too much on the wings). The portion was more than enough for my wife to share plus enough for a chicken salad the next day (we ordered a whole chicken). Sauces that were provided were both tasty but I did prefer the green. Wasn't a huge fan of the fried yucca as certain pieces were tough. The fried plantains were good but wished it was a tad bit sweeter. Would head back as the food was good but would elect for different sides.
Loli Farms is a Peruvian restaurant that also sells a little kitchen staples, snacks and drinks. There is no signage at all so if it's your first time, use GPS. There's a small parking lot but can fill up quickly. There's also street parking. They've been here for about a year and is the more casual sister restaurant of Bodegón No.69, also in Pasadena about 10 minutes away. Once inside, grab a menu or look on the monitor to decide. Paper menu is better because the monitor has a glare and rotates the images often. Everything is self service. Order and pick up at the counter. Self service sauces or drinks in the large cooler towards the back, and even bus your own tables. Seating is first come, first serve. Even though there is also outdoor seating, it can all fill up at times. They're known for their roasted chicken, so that's what we ordered. A whole chicken with two sides: mashed potatoes that has the roasted chicken drippings poured over it and plantains. The chicken was full of flavor, juicy and worked great with the green sauce. We also got the Salchipapas, which is basically french fries sliced sausage covered with various sauces. It's not bad, but not great and feels like something I can make at home. But the highlight is no doubt the chicken. There wasn't much service, but the interaction with the staff was pleasant. They all seem very nice with a friendly smiles. Tip: many people grabbed a 2 L bottle of the Inca cola from the cooler. It's a Peruvian soda and for someone who does not drink sodas, this is pretty damn good if you like it these can also be found in Mexican markets probably for a cheaper price. All of the snacks or kitchen staples sold here do not have a price listed. So you can either ask or be a Baller and just buy it. The consensus is accurate. Their chicken is awesome. A 4 1/2 star rounded up to 5.
Background On Visit: Long story short, I mistaken this place for Pie and Burger. We were standing in line for about 10 minutes before I asked the couple ahead of us how the food was and what would they recommend. The wife told us that the rotisserie chicken was very good and that we should get the fried yuca frita and the coleslaw. After listening to her, we realized that we went to the wrong place. After waiting that long, we felt committed and decided to patronize the shop. Credit Cards: They're accepted. Restroom: There's no restroom Wait Time: Wait can be long. Took about 45 minutes to get inside to order, find a seat, and receive our food. Location/Parking: Located on the NE corner of. Parking can be found in the shared parking lot with Pie and Burger. You can also park along California Blvd. or on S. Lake Ave.. Ambiance/Decor: It was kinda chaotic, but get's alright after you find a table to enjoy your food. Tables are communal so you'll be sitting with other people that you don't know. There's also a outdoor patio, but there's more seating than tables. Service: Not much service, but staffer behind the register was nice and patient. Food took a while, but it was acceptable due to how busy it was. Food Of Choice: Decided on the 1/2 Chicken Pollo A La Brasa, which was quite moist and tender even though the skin was pretty salty. It also came with your choice of two sides (mashpotatoes, yucca frita, white rice, platino frito, canary beans, cole slaw, garlic fries, and sweet potato). Decided on the garlic fries and yucca frita (fried cassava). The sides were very good and I really had a fun time dipping/dunking them in the cilantro and aji verde sauce. :) Loli Farms For Thought: I wouldn't mind coming back to eat more chicken. I'll consider ordering to go next time.
Finally tried Loli Farms after seeing it on Instagram, and it's such a cute little place! The inside is very warm and welcoming, and the staff is super friendly and helpful. We got the chicken sandwich and the 1/4 chicken. The chicken sandwich is loaded with a lot of meat and very filling. The 1/4 chicken is seasoned very well, and I also really liked the plantains. You can find green sauce and white sauce in the fridges on the side too. Overall, very tasty! Note that parking might be difficult, though you can park in front of the store on the driveway/lot. Also, the bathroom is outside and needs a code.
My friends and I decided on meeting up for dinner and we chose this spot. It is almost cafeteria set up as far as seating. It smells delicious when walking in. I ordered the salchipapas that had the combination of beef and pork sausage and it had their secret sauce, mustard, and ketchup. I can tell when sausages are not fresh because I usually get sick. I was totally fine and it had the snap. It was a great order to finish off the day. My friends got the chicken dinner and pork sandwich and we all finished out food. It was a good meal to catch up on life. The cashiers were super friendly and quick to clean up as well. It is a very clean space and I would definitely want to come back. You should definitely give it a try.
Chicken is juicy, flavorful without being too salty, and slightly smoky. The yucca frita had the best crunchy exterior and soft interior - better for me than the garlic fries. I wanted the chicken to be smokier and for their green sauce to be more pungent and creamy. This is definitely a cute place for lunch.
I remembered when Loli Farms first opened. I walked in to learn about the restaurant after dining at Pie n Burger. The two restaurants are next to each other. That was about 8 months ago. Recently after a visit to Pie n Burger, my wife and I walked into Loli Farms to check out the business. It looked inviting and the aroma of rotisserie chicken was enticing. It wasn't crowded which didn't affect me one way or another. Today we were headed for Pie n Burger but as we walked by we decided to give Loli Farms a try. We were pleasantly surprised by the crowd already dining there and we waited in line to order. I had the half chicken and my wife the quarter chicken. We both chose white rice and canary beans for our sides. Luckily a table opened up and we settled in. Our food came promptly, no waiting and it was piping hot. The he beans and rice were better than I expected and a good choice. The chicken though was excellent, juicy and tender. The flavor from the spices was strong and penetrated the entire bird. We were immediately sold on this place. From the line that formed after we were seated, it's obvious that many other people in Pasadena are sold on Loli Farms. I told the young man who took our order that this was our first visit. He said the chicken is tender and you will love it. He was right. The chicken is tender and we loved it. It has to be popular due to their product and word of mouth because they don't have a sign out front. We will definitely be back and make the 20 minute drive because it's that good.
If you like Peruvian chicken, this is the place. Small, friendly, delicious food. Juicy juicy chicken, season extremely well, excellent sides, and good bang for your buck. $18 for my combo of 1/2 chicken with two sides. Seated and parking a little limited so plan accordingly. Nice and quaint little place. 1/2 store 1/2 diner. In my opinion better than El Dorado Pollos a La Brasa. Just missing pickled onion.
We absolutely love Peruvian Apollo à la brasa so when we discovered Lolis existed nearby we just had to try it. Boy were we impressed! The location is not the most convenient and parking is a bit tricky which requires patience but it was all worth it. Such amazing flavor! It was packed during the lunch hour which says a lot. Tar shared the lomo saltado sandwich (which we didn't realize was a sandwich. Interesting but it worked). We also shared a half chicken meal. We left quite full and happy. Had the cucumber salad side along w garlic fries. Everything FRESH. Sauces are bottles self served from the fridge. So are utensils and plates. We loved it all. Shall return ASAP!
I was craving for lomo saltado, and I found this place with greta yelp reviews. I parked in a public parking structure, and walked over. There was a short line when I got here. I love the decoration. It was very cultural. I found out they only have Lomo Salado sandwich, not the typical lomo Salado dish. I can order their signature chicken. I got the quarter chicken with fries. The traditional green and white sauce or self serve inside the fridge. Both sauces were pretty spicy to my tasting. The chicken was very tender and juicy, and it was well seasoned too. The fries was crispy. I would probably order their sweet potato fries next time. I will definitely come back again.

Having eaten at nearly 40 Peruvian restaurants, Loli Farms does disappoint. Considering it is such a simple menu - Pollo a la Brasa (rotisserie chicken or charcoal chicken), one would believe this would be the star of the restaurant. No such luck. While I see wood logs used for the rotisserie chicken, I can barely taste the mesquite smokiness. The chicken just lacked flavour - little seasoning without properly marinating the chicken. The Salchipapas (a Peruvian/Latin American street dish consisting of french fries smothered with sliced fried sausages, ketchup, mayonnaise, mustard, aji amarillo, etc.), was not well made. The Loli Farms version only fried the french fries once and not twice. The result is soggy tasting fries. Also, there was no aji amarillo (Peruvian chili sauce). Service is slow - a 20 minute wait for a a non busy time. Chicken is already cooked. It just needs to be cut and boxed. How can such a simple menu lack flavour, quality and speed? The indoor seating area is a bit claustrophobic with barely adequate space to move around from the seating area and the order counter...the plus side is there are about seven parking spaces in the lot. Overall, I would not recommend this place since there are better options for pollo a la brasa. read more
This is the best rotisserie chicken I've ever had. Maybe that says a lot about how many rotisseries I've had/haven't had, but whatever, I love it. I ordered this for the first time last night, ate half, and ate the rest for lunch today. I ordered it again for tonight's dinner! The chicken breast is tender, even after being refrigerated and microwaved for lunch. The ají verde is fresh and flavorful. Service was quick, about 20 minutes of prep. The little market is a nice addition with some Peruvian snacks and goods. I wish this business the best because I plan to come back a lot! read more

On a Saturday 11am in March, my sister and I were in Pasadena to try new restaurant. It's located at the corner of California and Lake next to pie n burger spot. Outside there is no grand opening sign just a small chalkboard sign. We were greeted by the nice owner and explained the menu to us. Inside was cozy of smell of chicken grilling on firewood. There are shelves of Peruvian items and tables to sit. We ordered the family plan of whole chicken, 3sides, 2 liter Inca soda. He gave us a sample of beans, chicken pieces and mash potatoes which was tasty. We got sweet potatoes fries, plain fries, mash potatoes with whole chicken. It was so juicy and tender and the skin was yummy. I was full with med and thigh, and dipping in his 2 sauces. The fries are nicely fried and not greasy at all. There is a barrel of water on the counter. Next time I will try their chicken sandwiches. read more

I always come back for their pollo La Brasa is loaded with lots of flavor and their sides are just as good. I usually get the 1/4 piece chicken and ask for the dark meat, with plantains & garlic fries. There's no signage outside the restaurant, it's on the corner of S.Lake & California, right next to Pie N Burger. read more

Happened upon this eatery & Peruvian market on the corner of E. California Blvd and S. Lake Ave in Pasadena. We enjoyed a succulent, flavorful order of half chicken ( thigh& drumstick, breast with wing) and a with a side of coleslaw and sweet potato fries. The green salsa (spicy) enhanced the chicken. The cream color salsa was mild spicy but also tasty. We ordered an extra side of caramelized plantains which was a sweet ending to our dinner. The counter service was quick & friendly, answering our questions about the beverage flavors. A few tables are available for eat-in. There are shelves displaying Peruvian food products and refrigerated case for more beverage selections for sale. The location has a few parking spots in front of the building. This day, ( September 10) no "Loli Farms" sign yet but the white building with windows stand out. We will definitely return to eat more Peruvian chicken! read more

First time trying Loli Farms and got the quarter chicken with beans and fries. The chicken was so so so juicy and flavourful. The beans and fries were also good but the chicken really was the star of the show. The place is great for a casual meal and has a little market in it as well. The service was fast and friendly. Definitely check them out for dinner or lunch! read more

I absolutely loved this place. I work nearby so stopped by to try it during my lunch break. The owner was super nice and friendly and explained all the menu items to me. I ended up ordering the chicken sandwich and it is so good! I also ordered some fries and those were delicious; perfectly crispy but didn't feel oily at all. The owner also gave me a sample of the mashed potatoes and beans which were also so good. I definitely will go back and try more items and I'm excited about having the rotisserie chicken. read more

The aroma of wood smoke is apparent from the moment you walk into Loli Farms. The smell is in the roasted chicken as well. My Peruvian friends tell me that's exactly the way polla a la brasa is prepared in Lima and I can see why. We ordered a whole chicken meal and each piece was moist and flavorful. The meal comes with 3 sides as well as a 2L bottle of Inka Cola. We picked french fries and they are fresh cut and fill a huge box. The mashed potatoes are also creamy, buttery, and flavorful. The coleslaw was our veggie pick and it was a very solid version. The meal comes with 2 sauces - a very spunky aji and a creamy aj amarillo/mayo one. We're definitely including Loli in our meal rotation. Their chicken is fantastic. read more

The Peruvian street food was delicious. Good portions and good price. The deserts were soft and tasty. Even though it looks simple, they don't sacrifice on quality. Chicken burger, Sausage and fries did the job! read more

Come here if you want the best rotisserie chicken in town. Nice small little shop - bench seating makes it feel cozy and welcoming. I ordered a half chicken, fries, and beans - all for 17$. Shared between two people and feeling full afterwards. Food took a little longer to roll out, which is understandable because you cannot cook meat faster and perfect at the same time. You know the chicken is good when you devour the bone of the wing tip. The thigh was SO juicy. Some guy from the kitchen came over and gave us a green sauce. It complimented the chicken so well. This is my new regular spot for fire roasted chicken. read more

Fantastic place if you are in the mood for Peruvian chicken. The chicken is moist and flavorful with plenty of smokiness worked in. Their family meal is very affordable and generous, includes one whole chicken, three sides of your choice and a 2-liter bottle of Inka Kola. We love their fried plantains and yucca, easily the best that we've had. The people are very friendly and there are enough seats to eat-in although we prefer to take home. Parking can be an issue when they are busy as their lot can fill up quickly. Better to find street side parking on Del Mar or any of the residential side streets and walk over. read more

I absolutely have fallen in love with Loli farms. You know when you are trying to find a place to eat and you run through the usual? Then someone mentions a restaurant and you say "yes!!!" That is what Loli Farms does to me. Km sitting here right now hoping to already come back. The chicken is fantastic, excellent spices and herbs. The yuca fries are new and amazing. We got the family special and got a 2 liter Inca Kola! They also have a small retail space with authentic Peruvian items. The service is phenomenal and the ambiance is great. They are playing Manuel Medrano (Colombian artist) and I'm in my happy place. read more
Loli Farmers absolutely has the best chicken in Pasadena. This past Saturday I ordered the whole chicken with fries (Cooked well done) and beans. I ordered it togo. If you don't want soggy fries when you get home leave the top off the container. I have had their chicken sandwich and I love it but this was the first time ordering the whole chicken. How about the whole chicken? It come with 4 quarter legs and no breast. I was okay with that because the meat was so tender and juicy. When I got home I made myself a plate with fries, beans and a quarter leg. I grabbed hold of the end of quarter leg and the meat just pulled away from the bone. So juicy and succulent. The skin was seasoned great and had a nice crispness when I bite into it. The one thing that places this over the top, is the subtle smoky flavor. I end up easily eating two quarter legs and some of the fries. They also included two great green sauces with another reddish oranges. They were all great but I loved the darker green sauce. It had a kiss of heat. So what was the cost? $30.94. This was the best $30 I've ever spent and it's well worth it. read more

Such incredibly delicious, succulent, flavorful chicken!! Every single bite was so flavorful, even as you get deeper into the bone. There was no single dry bite. I swear this is the best roasted chicken I have had. The workers here are very friendly and nice. This is a great casual eatery to grab a quick bite read more
