Oh, wow I'm impressed. You don't even have to try to the food to know it's going to be great (just by the smell you can tell is good food) I got the Peruvian chicken: Very taste and juice. Best Peruvian chicken in town. Even if we compare this Sardi's location with others, this one rates among the best. read more

BETTER THAN NANDO'S!!! Would recommend for when you want to have dinner tonight and leftovers for tomorrow. Sardi's isn't playing when it comes to sides. I love the fried plantains and green beans (fresh not canned). The chicken is always great and never dry. The pork chops are also amazing. It's always busy when I go here but the line moves fast. read more

Our go to spot when dinner is too much of a task. Always good , juicy and hot! Yet to fail us. Really enjoys the new garlic broccoli and sometimes creamed spinach read more

Man I love Sardis. Chicken is always juicy. Fried rice is always served generously and they load you up on sauces so there usually isn't any need for extras that cost $$$. Service fast and attentive. Tables and floors are kept well cleaned. Although I'm biased to the pink sauce they serve at Crisp & Juicy. The portion sizes there pale in comparison to Sardi's. And their pink sauce just about fills the void the best it can for me here. read more

Don't order the Lumo Saltado , itjust a fried pieces of beef with fries ang tomatoes . It doesn't have a sauce on it and it's not worth $17.00 when i ordered it it only had 8 pcs of 1" or less size of beef. It taste like cardboard. read more

The portions have tremendously declined while the prices have increased. The meal I always order is practically the portion of a kids meal now. Very disappointed in the changes in portion size here lately. Also the mixed vegetables are basically carrots with a few kernels of corn mixed in. I don't know what's happened to Sardis lately but I've noticed the quality has really gone down. read more

Located across the street from That other Home Improvement store on N. McCain Drive in Frederick, MD this pollo is better than Boston Market. Now, you may say to yourself that chicken from Boston Market is not bar to which you judge other rotisserie chicken to, but I'm looking for the most common denominator here. Needless to say then that the chicken is simply delicious. We had the Lunch special on this day which consisted of the 1/2 Chicken( too much poultry for one sitting) which comes with two sides and a drink for less than $13.00 before tax. The vegetables we chose were the Green beans which were sautéed in garlic butter and onions: awesome! Our second side was the mixed vegetables consisting of Baby carrots and Brussel sprouts. Top that off with half lemonade and Mango to wash it all down with. What a great meal. Come hungry and leave fulfilled. The place is busy so get there before 1. read more

See all

Was excited to see that there was a Sardis in Frederick but was disappointed because it wasn't nearly as good as the ones down in the D.C. area. They messed up my order, and when I finally received it, it just wasn't as great as some of the other locations. Hopefully, it was just an off day and next time will be better. read more

The peruvian chickens are juicy and succulent with a beautifully crispy skin. The yucca are extra crunchy and the sides like rice and beans and plantains are quite tasty. The portions are generous so you're getting a bargain. There's really not much else you can ask for except may be more heat from the picante green sauce. This place would kick El Pollo Rico and Super Pollo to the curb in a comparison fight. read more

I expected good, but not GREAT! This place is incredible!?! Great prices, tasty food, fast service (my plate was ready before I was done paying), and the sauce. Oh dear baby Jesus marinated in soy...the s.a.u.c.e. I've never smoked crack before, but I imagine the experience is much like consuming the sauces at this restaurant. I'll be back. Whenever I'm in Frederick this is my #1 choice! read more

I love this place, the grilled chicken and yuca con chicharone is fantastic. A whole lot of food for not a lot of money, they should charge more (don't let them know that though) read more

Sardi's Pollo A La Brasa - Latin American Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

Seriously good chicken! I'd been looking for a rotisserie/charbroiled chicken joint since Caballo Viejo closed earlier this year when a friend brought some to dinner. HOLY COW! (or should that be chicken?) It's the tastiest chicken I've had in this area. It's well seasoned, juicy, and satisfying. 1/4 chicken with 2 sides is plenty of food for the average person. The portions are VERY generous. I'm a big fan of their tajadas (fried plantains). Oh, and the sauces they provide with the chicken are great too. The green stuff, presumably some sort of jalapeno paste, has quite a kick! Best of all, this place is very affordable. The place is clean, and there's always some spanish-language TV. During the World Cup, they were advertising live game broadcasts with beer specials. It can get a little warm in the late spring and summer due to the chicken charbroiler and such. I would offer 5 stars, but I haven't had the will-power to stray from the chicken (it's just that good), but I've heard great things! read more

Everytime i go home to visit my parents we get Sardis. The west coast is missing a solid Peruvian spot, and this place is definitely the real deal. No thrills spot, you go in and order a chicken size, some sides and pay. We always get the beans, fried rice, yuca and platanos with a full sized chicken and it feeds 4-5 for 20 bucks. Get the green sauce, cause its crack with the yuca. The rotisserie chicken is flavorful and as addicting as the green sauce and you can't go wrong with any of the options you get for sides. Its beautiful. Its amazing. read more

Went here on Sunday evening to get carry out for dinner after a day of visiting family. It smelled so good in the car on the way home and it was well worth the wait when we got there! The chicken was fantastic! We got a whole chicken with two sides (Rice and Beans and Salad) and my husband also got Yuca. Everything was great - the dipping sauces were yummy - the green one has a great kick to it. The whole meal was $15.95 - whole chicken and two sides (we added a third side). I wish there was one closer to home, we would go here all the time! Definitely worth a try! read more

LOVE this place! Eat here or do take out all the time. We can feed the entire family for about $30 with their family meal deal. The chicken is the BEST...slow cooked with wonderful spices. I have tried other menu items but always come back to the chicken. The green sauce for the chicken is hot but not too hot and complements the chicken wonderfuly. Their sides are great too. Fried rice and plantains are yummy. I always get their salad because the dressing is to die for. Ginger based I think. .but spicy. The service is alway great and they don't make you feel weird not being Hispanic....friendly warm staff. Everyone we tell about this place becomes addicted! read more

Wow! This is the best chicken I've ever had! Sardi's is flipping amazing. The place was all-around great, I give high marks on everything. Clean restaurant, great menu selections, friendly & helpful staff, and delucious food. Even the other customers were friendly. A random guy recommended the red sauce as his favorite and rips me to try the salmon next time I'm there. This time, I had chicken and fried plantains. It was a wonderful meal. Almost too much to eat. The red sauce was awesome, and so was the yellow. read more

My new go to place in Frederick for delicious Peruvian Chicken. The sides were amazing...I ordered the chaufa and the green beans. Sardi's is a can't miss! read more

Not to be dramatic or anything but this is the best chicken I have ever had. Chicken has to be one of the most versatile foods around but it can also be boring. That is not the case at Sardis. It just has the best, most unique flavor and is incredibly juicy. We get the whole chicken meal with two sides which is enough for 3 adults and a child or maybe 2 really hungry people and lunch for 1 the next day. They include all these sauces and I am oblivious to what is in them but they are all excellent. There is this one brown sauce that I later found out is actually a dressing but either way it's great with the chicken. It tastes like bread! Now I'm hungry. read more

I want to kidnap all the employees and take them to an island with Zooey Deschanel. What I do after that is my business. One word: All the food is awesome! read more

I heard about this place from some of my co-workers and decided to give it a shot. The restaurant was very clean, the service was fast (which was surprising since they get bum-rushed during lunch hour) and the prices are decent. The chicken is ridiculously awesome! Very flavorful and juicy! I recommend getting 1/2 Peruvian Chicken with plantains and Peruvian Fried Rice as your sides. You get 3 sauces (2 of the cream and 1 of the green spicy sauce). I recommend you get more of the cream sauce; it's that good. read more

**Warning long post*** I first visited Sardi's back in APRIL-2014 when it was half the size and people said you would love it. I tried it and BOOM it was amazing flavors were so juicy and tender I was like I need to come back to this place right here. I left Frederick, MD for 4 years and came back. Who thought I would be here so some people suggested Sardi's I was like oh yeah that place was good when I was here. Fast forward to now the chicken does not taste like it was marinated as long as it was before I mean I had to use Sriracha hot sauce to flavor it up but keep in my mind my tastebuds are looking for that 2014 juicy, tender, succulent and wonderful flavor. I am like what happen to this place. Yeah its bigger and has more space but to inflate prices and lose the one thing I repeat one thing people loved about this place was the intense marinating process and cheap combo prices. Even the server at the counter looked pissed at all the new changes. All I can say is the chicken is good however image the taste x20 because something happen and corners were cut to make profit. This was my 5 Star place now just a two because 1 if it was the last place on earth I would go back and 2 it has improved its space so more open but other than that I will start to marinate chicken myself because Sardi's you lost that tasteful bliss that made me say OMG this is phenomenal now it's just ok. Hello, Hello Sardi's can you find the 2014 version of this place. read more

Another "if it aint hood, it aint good" spot! The food is on point! I had a chicken cheese steak on my first visit, and on my second I had the chopped chicken sandwhich, both times I almost tapped out! They give you a lot of food. They have some characters that roll up in this cut, one dude was lookin crazy on that "lean" if you know what I mean, had to give him the ghetto smile so he would know I wasn't an easy win! :) Sardis you keep it gully, and I love you for it. read more

I have not posted a review in quite some time due in large part to laziness. Sardis Chicken made me snap out of it and finally put one up. The chicken I had here was better than the glowing reviews here on Yelp. I had a 1/2" chicken with two sides and the chicken had a nicely seasoned, crispy skin with juicy meat underneath. The best chicken I've had in quite some time. The two sides, Peruvian fried rice and seasoned green beans could each be standouts if they were grouped with lesser items, but each item in my meal was delicious. Withe the tab at just about $11, I had enough food for two meals. The gym I use while I am here in the area is just down the road, so Sardis Chicken will be serving me my post workout meal each week for the foreseeable future. I just hope I dont blow off my workouts just to get at the chicken. read more

Everything is good here and though alot is chicken based because that's their popularity they do great with other meats. The quesadilla is the best in Frederick. The chopped chicken sandwich is a great way to sample their chicken but don't sleep on the traditional gyro. read more

YOU MUST EAT HERE! I always get a quarter dark chicken with some of the sides. I love the yuca (like crispy delicious fries) and the black beans and rice. The plantains are touch and go- always taste good but not always cooked to my personal preference. The green beans and mixed veggies are good as well. The sauces are so delicious! I love taking some of the green sauce and mixing it with the white mayo sauce. I stop in for lunch here and it is always worth it :) If you have left overs they re-heat great. I reheat the yuca and chicken in the oven. read more

I found a taste of Peru right here in Frederick! Chill atmosphere, very casual. Food is fabulous and pretty cheap for the amount you get. I can't wait to go back to try some more menu items. Inca Kola! Oh and did I mention soccer was playing on the two flat screen televisions? Love it!! read more

Sardi's Pollo A La Brasa - 1/2 Chicken, Fries and Yuca - Latin American Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

If you did not know they were there, the small strip mall they are located in would not make you look there for them. Once you smell the aroma of the chicken, after you get out of your car, you have to go right in. The restaurant is clean and bigger then you would expect. Though we have never eaten in, there is plenty of seating. The chicken is just amazing, and they cut it up right in front of you. Their fried rice is a must, and I am a big fan of their green beans that have the right amount of flavoring on them. There sauces are a must, and they give you more then enough of them. We tend to go at least twice a month and normally order the two chicken meal with sides to more then feed the family of four. read more

As a connoiseur of Peruvian rotisserie establishments, I'd have to say that this place could give Kikiriki in Claremont, CA a run for its aji. For only $7 I barely managed to take down a well-rotisseried quarter chicken and two sides. The arroz chaufa was well done but could have been a bit fresher. The green beans I chose to eat looked better than the house salad (simple, not very interesting) and were tasty. I was given two green sauces which I took for aji variations and both were delicious. The hotter one was good with the chicken and the other was a bit rich for me, but a nice respite from the spiciness of the former. You can judge these places based on their chicken and aji. Sardi's has it going on in that department. The price is right and the employees are happy and pleasant. Way to go, Sardi read more

Amazing Food!!! I've been to all the locations! This place surpasses ALL other chicken spots...by FAR!!! Trust me when I tell you that the Sardi's Salmon is where it's at! Omg! #Delish read more

Sardi's Pollo A La Brasa - Omg! The best Salmon in America!!! Mmmmm!!! - Latin American Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

Thank god Sardi's has finally made it to Frederick. They're rotisserie chicken is succulent flavorful, which everybody already knows; however, they also excel in huge salads, sandwiches and even Greek food. When I'm not in the mood for rice and fried yucca, I get their version of a Greek salad, which comes with a unique if not overly salty house dressing. I highly recommend adding either their rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken to any of the salads. The only qualms I have with this place are their unappealing dining area and spotty service. But since their takeout is so consistent, these are minor detractors! read more

After years of hearing about how wonderful Sardis is, I finally tried some take out from there last week. I will preface this by saying I was incredibly hungry, and as such the first portion of my food slid down my gullet without much attention to taste. However, once I rehinged my jaw and started breathing between bites, the chicken was really darn good. Now, for my dirty secret... if this was a blind taste test, I am not sure I could tell the difference between Sardis chicken and Crisp & Juicy. I know, don't tell anyone. But one day I'm going to do that comparison and report back. In the meantime, I will concede, it's good chicken. However, the sides for me weren't great. I got rice and beans and coleslaw. It was all stuff I could have made at home. The coleslaw was finely chopped, which I guess I don't do at home... but really, is that enough? No. I'll get chicken here again, but I likely won't waste money on the sides. Please don't hate me. I know everyone raves about this place. But it comes in third place for me in my great Peruvian chicken experiment. read more

Yes, my 1/4 white meat chicken was really good. The skin was crispy and seasoned well, while the meat was juicy. Love the spicy green sauce that you can get for dipping. The side dish portions are so big they could be a meal in themselves. The plantains were absolutely beautiful- I'm kicking myself for not bringing them for lunch at work with me. The yucca is hit or miss. I had some pieces that tasted good and others were dry and flavorless. I'm think they're oven baked not fried, which could account for the problem. The staff is okay. The guy started filling my order then a co-worker gave him some takeout orders so without a word he left me standing there while he went to fill them. read more

I wake up dreaming about their chicken! It's tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. So delicious! The sides that I've had are also tasty - plantains, rice and beans, guilty pleasure fries. Yum! Their lomo Saltado is one of the best I've ever had! read more

Consistently busy - which is good for quick Peruvian chicken joints. But also a tip for people to order ahead because you WILL WAIT IN LINE. I don't think I've ever been here when it's not busy. and I have been a few times. Anyhow - Chicken is phenomenal - juicy, seasoned to perfection, crispy skin, meat melts off the bone. Awesome with anyone of their sauces - blanco, amarillo and rojo. AWESOME!!! Love the smokey, rotisserie style chicken with the hot sauce paired with plantains, yucca, rice, coleslaw, whatever your fancy. MMMM and the rice!!!!!! Best fried rice - is "Spasian" style of course - a hybrid Chinese fried rice mixed w/ Spanish or Latin inspired flavors, egg, green onions and pieces of their chicken in a seasoned rice mix. so good. Yucca sometimes doesn't have the little fibers pulled off - I for one, don't really care about this but my kids do. Fries are good too though, sometimes they get a little greasy being in the box after 30 minutes when we get it to go. But not their fault, we should eat it while it's fresh. Other items we have tried - Gyro's - also awesome- beef/lamb mix with crema, queso fresco and typical fixins but mixed w/ Latin style/flair. - Papusas - these are not a menu item as far as I know- owner has a limited batch per day made but BOY are they awesome. If you can get your hands on one or a few - DO THAT now and get them with some rice or beans. the pork and beans and the cheese ones are my favs. All in all a very nice (but small) restaurant that has some ka-pow in the menu choices and quality of the food being served. I def. recommend it (if you're in a hurry, do call ahead) read more

Love this place The chicken is delicious and so far their service is good. They have a good amount of side choices. Restaurant is a good size and there is parking out front. It's near the home depot. Thumbs up! read more

Yelp reviews were spot on for this place. Fantastic chicken that's juicy with the perfect texture and amount of spices. I got the yuka, potatoes and fried plaintains- all of which were great but the plaintains are a must have, so delicious. The sauces that come with the meal are also really good and are a perfect combo...be careful of the green sauce if your adverse to spicy food. The only downside is the atmosphere which is why I didn't give it 5 stars. It's not terrible inside but not very homey but that won't stop me from coming back! read more

Let's talk about how fantastic two people can serve eleven customers in about as many minutes. I love little order-at-the-front restaurants like this, everything was clean, well organized, and bigger than I thought it would be. Food was pricier than I expected but you get a TON of absolutely to-die-for food for their $7-$15 platters. Try the chicken and the plantains at least once! read more

Sardi's Pollo A La Brasa - Plantains are to die for! - Latin American Near Me - Frederick, Maryland

My boyfriend brought me here when we first started dating 5 years ago. He grew up in Frederick so he knew all the good places in the area. I had never had Peruvian food before, but man was I in heaven the first time I ate here! I always get a 1/2 chicken, fried rice (which is out of this world good) and roasted potatoes. Although, I should give proper recognition to the plantains because they are also delicious. Portion sizes are huge, as most people have commented. You will have enough food to eat the next day. It's located right off Frederick's "Golden Mile" so it's not hard at all to find. It's not in the greatest location for parking, but most people get to go anyway. I was there recently and it appeared they did some remodeling to the outside. Looks a lot classier! read more

My ultimate comfort food of all times! This place always satisfies me. My mouth is watering just typing this review! I enjoying everything about this restaurant! Awesome customer service, the music selection and the many choices on their menu! This place is very popular for the chicken, but you must try the other items too! The Lomo saltado and the Ceviche mixto are my favorites, along with their sides like mix veggies, delicious rice, platinos and many more! You honestly can't go wrong with this place. Once you try, you'll come back for more! A tad bit pricy, but totally worth it!! read more

Fate brought me here, taste brought me back. This place is great!! I was looking for something to eat and turn down their road with the intention of turning around and going to a chain spot. However, I saw the sign and figured I'd eat something healthy. I got the Peruvian chicken, pinto bean, and plantains.... OH YEAH!!!! Another bonus was the price, well worth the meal and then some. read more
