    Inside Restaurant
    Cristina Cici B.

    Peruvian chicken is a personal favorite, and full disclosure, I've been on a bit of a Peru-Pollo binge recently. So, I turned to Yelp to see where was the closest joint to get my fix. My choice today was the 1/4 chicken with 2 sides: fried plantain and arroz chaufa, also adding an extra side of fried yuca. Chicken: 4/5 - but probably because I panicked and didn't correct my order for dark meat, instead I kept the white meat. It wasn't too heavily charcoaled or seasoned, could possibly do with a little more seasoning but I still ate the whole thing --and skin (yeah, I'm one of those. Get over it.) The meat was tender, tore away from the bone, and doused in green sauce went down a treat. Sides: The yuca (5/5) was on point, perfectly fried but still light and fluffy on the inside. The plantain (5/5) was PERFECT, and a great contrast with the Aji Verde green sauce (packs a punch on the spicy scale, delicious!) The arroz chaufa (3/5) was okay, not the chaufa I'm used to eating; a little too oily for my liking, but that's down to personal taste. Lastly, Customer Service: 5/5. Michelle, thanks for being so sweet and taking care of me and participating in my Spanglish talk. I enjoy speaking Spanish whenever I can to make sure I don't forget how to converse in the language. The customer service alone is enough for me to stop in again (and the Latin club bangers playing whilst I waited, always a plus.) I'll definitely be coming back here again!

    Perfect Pollo was perfectly delicious. They had a little bit of everything from Tex-mex to Peruvian, so I decided to try a little bit of everything. We placed our order over the phone for pickup. When we arrived, we noticed a sign outside stating "Best Rotisserie Charcoal Wings in the DMV", so I had to add that to my order. Boy, were these wings slamming! I can taste them right now...probably the best part of the meal honestly. I also ordered the TALLARIN SALTADO DE POLLO and a side of plantains. My husband and my aunt each ordered the chicken dinners. Our meals were very filling and we finished feeling satisfied.

    1/2 Chicken Dark so good. Definitely will come back.

    After trying Perfect Pollo's Ashland location, I've been wanting to try this location and finally did today. Staff and service was good and friendly. Their food offerings are really good, even if they have more "American" sides to cater to those who don't want the spicy, flavorful stuff, than they have good, Hispanic sides. The food was great... Fried rice was awesome! Yuca was OK, just seems a lot like the frozen stuff. Chicken was outstanding! Nice and moist with good amounts of spice and flavor! Overall, it was really good... I want to return and try there chicken sub.

    It tasted exactly liked it looked. A little dry and the fries were a little wet. Nothing to write home about.

    I really was looking forward to eating here based off the yelp reviews. It may have been my fault ordering just a chicken quesadilla and some fried plantains. The fries were soggy and didn't have much flavor. The quesadilla was packed with chicken but it was a little dry and to seasoned. The plantains were just OK. It was a ball full of grease and didn't make me feel too well. I wish I just didn't eat it.

    Not enough positive hyperboles to express my feelings. I just really and truly hope that more businesses take on this model. Cleanliness, Great Food, and Great service. The peruvian style rotisserie chicken is hands down the absolute best in the area. But maaaaaaan is this place spotless. I cant believe its been open over a year. I cant even dream up a complaint... by any stretch of the imagination. Maybe turn down the radio next time "Bad to the Bone" plays? wait... but thats what the food is.... its B@D@$$$ .. right down to the bone... MMMmmmMMMmmMm.. delissshusss.

    BEST POLLO Chicken in the area! The sides are so good. Will definitely come back and maybe bring the family next time!

    From the time we walked in until we walked out of the door the hospitality was amazing. Frank the owner really makes you feel at home. The flavor and freshness of the chicken ( which are cooked every 20 minutes) were perfect. Lots of options for sides including fried rice, plantains, vegetables, French fries and salad. They also have other meal options including beef and seafood. They had a variety of sauces for dipping that were enjoyable and catered to different taste buds. Atmosphere is very casual and relaxed located of Rt 2 near the Field House. Overall great experience.

This restaurant is definitely a 10 out of 10 for food, atmosphere and service! I would highly recommend!

    I was finally able to make a visit to this place. It's in a strip mall along with other businesses…read moresuch as Kohls, Finesse Salon Studios and across from Publix Super Market. Theres plenty of parking and they have a small area for outside seating. As you walked in, there's plenty of seating, they have an open kitchen concept, a side room for special events or meetings (25 people capacity) but it's their mission that caught my interest as cashier/ hostess Lexi explains to me. This company spreads and provides charity catering throughout the community with multiple outlets. Lexi was very patient as she explains how the menu works. I ordered 3 items: 1) Loaded baked potato 2) Fried fish 3) Chicken and waffles. I just wanted to taste the baked potato without any protein on top. I don't know what it was that had an off taste, maybe the butter. The potato itself was soft topped with cheese, green onions and a little bland. The chicken and waffle were tasty. The fried chicken wasn't as crispy as I would like it but it was well seasoned and the waffle was soft. There are so many options for your sides. So for the fried fish, the appearance looks delicious but it was very thin and dry. Even with the tartar sauce it was still dry. I was really looking forward to it. The sides I selected were fries and hope cakes (which are sweet corn bread). Their beverages are on point, I got their lemonade and sweet tea. Lexi was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant is only opened on Fridays-Sundays for regular business but since they do multiple catering events, they are open 7 days a week. They also offer Sunday brunch between the hours of 9a-3p which the entire dining room is open with mocktail and coffee station. There isn't a buffet during the brunch but a la carte off the menu. I would make a return visit to try their brunch menu in the near future.

The hush puppies, biscuits, and the macaroni and cheese were the best I've ever had from a fast food restaurant. As for the chicken, it smelled amazing. Unfortunately, from my taste, I found it very salty and greasy. The chicken was well flavored, but it was just way too salty for me I also tried their banana pudding and unfortunately, once again, at least from my taste, it was lacking the right flavors. I did try their honey butter chicken biscuit sandwich I found that to be delicious So for that alone, it's totally worth a trip. I did forget to take a picture of banana pudding and the honey butter biscuit sandwich
