Peru Chicken Restaurant is a wonderful hidden gem, with fantastic food, service, and prices.
Best known for their traditional Peruvian rotisserie chickens and sides, this restaurant also offers authentic Peruvian dishes, like saltado, (Peruvian stir fry) caldo de pollo (chicken soup) and yucca fritta, (fried yucca) and all the traditional appetizers, entrees and Peruvian drinks a homesick Peruvian native might be missing.
If you are unfamiliar with Peruvian food, you are in luck here. The menu is very informative, with lots of pictures and descriptions.
Peruvian chicken soup is very flavorful, usually with rice and fresh cilantro, often green from fresh herbs. Peruvian stir fried are typically made with french fries, onions, fresh vegetables and a little soy sauce, served with rice.
The Peruvian rotisserie chicken here is very traditional, slightly smokey, rubbed with fresh herbs and spices, beautifully seasoned with a hint of garlic and cumin.
Choose from one quarter, one half, one or two whole chickens, with sides like rice, traditional Peruvian white beans, french fries, fried yucca, salad and rice. A very large quarter chicken plate is less than ten dollars. A big family takeout whole chicken combo is an even better bargain.
If you like spicy things like I do, you will love the aji. (hot salsa) it's phenomenal. Several varieties are served alongside their rotisserie chicken plates, gratis. Be sure to request some with your takeout if you like a little heat.
I came here on my birthday, this would be an amazing place to host a family gathering, or holiday event. The tables are spaced far apart, and there's plenty of room between patrons.
To my delight, when this charming family owned and operated restaurant found out it was my birthday, they really made it special! To my surprise, I looked up to a big screen playing birthday songs, and the employees and patrons sang, "Happy birthday" with big lights and everything.
The traditional Peruvian flan (gluten free) I ordered turned out to be a gift from the restaurant, along with all the amazing birthday music and incredible festivity.
I might have cried a little, thanks to all the love and attention this restaurant gives to their first time customers, like me, in celebration of a stranger's birthday.
Whether you come for takeout, or fine in, nostalgic for Lima, or trying Peruvian food for the first time, or, making an important birthday wish while this whole restaurant is singing to you, you cannot help but absolutely love it here.
Many thanks Peru Chicken Restaurant, I hope more people luck out and find you thanks to Google maps like me!

Read moreThe Food was Okay. But Unfortunately the service was HORRIBLE. Janet was so unprofessional. My family & I came from Chicago. We came for my birthday dinner and we loved the food so we decided to come back the day after (they told us they were closing at 7) UNFORTUNATELY we got terrible customer service from JANET. She' is "supposed" to be called the "Manager"
We ordered rotisserie chicken with fries and salad, we also ordered ceviche and Lomo Saltado & drinks
After 30 minutes of receiving our food I had to get up and remind them about fries and salad that they forgot. I asked them for 3 waters. She never brought it to us!!! Probably because she didn't want to wash more dishes lol About almost 6, Janet tells me They are closed. I mentioned to her that we were told restaurant was closing at 7 today because of Labor day. I understand everything closes early but I was told 7! NOT 6pm! So She tells me "Well I just put up a sign and it says 6pm"
She stared rushing us! by throwing the plates .. & Reminding us that they were closed Besides that she kept starting at us the whole TIME. It was so uncomfortable & so unprofessional.. like childish . She kept giving us a nasty look at our table and threw up the receipt. I recommend coming but make sure Janet is not here
It was Labor day but damn angry girl didn't wanna work!🤣
La Comida muy deliciosa!! Pero no recomendó venir cuando está la muchacha JANET. Que Asco su actitud . Nos tiro la comida y el recibo!!
Que vergüenza para este restaurante .. Era Labor Day pero está floja no...
Read moreEl lunes 12 de septiembre del año en curso (2022) tuvimos una experiencia bastante desagradable en este restaurante llamado Perú Chicken que sirve pollo asado del día anterior sin ningún problema y aunque pedí que me lo canbiaran, llegó la encargada una mujer llamada jovana quien de manera muy grosera me dijo que ese pollo era igual a cualquier otro, y que era del día aunque claramente estaba tan seco que aún la persona con menos conocimiento de que es una comida fresca o no, lo notaria inmediatamente.
Yo me encontraba con mi novia y mis dos hijos pequeños y la verdad me incomodó bastante su actitud desafiante al sencillamente decirnos que no nos iba a cambiar el pollo por que sería uno igual a ese, y yo simplemente por no entrar a discutir le dije que se olvidara de todo y lo dejé de ese tamaño.
La reflexión acá es que parece que esta señora que es la manager del lugar o encargada como me dijo la mesera que era, nos trató realmente mal y es lo que los usuarios debemos denunciar en un lugar como éste por que honestamente estamos pagando para comer rico y fresco pero por encima de todo para ser atendidos con respeto y profesionalismo.
El señor de la mesa de al lado no dabe crédito a lo que la mujer me contestaba y él mismo me dijo que hacia pocos minutos la misma mujer regó un vino al estar sirviéndoles encima de su esposa y nisiquiera una disculpa ofreció a lo que debemos protestar cuando estas cosas pasen por que estamos acostumbrados a dejar opiniones cuando nos va bien en un lugar; pero y que pasa cuando nos agreden en un lugar aunque supuestamente vamos a compartir con familia o amigos? Es realmente justo quedarnos callados ?
Yo trabajo en restaurantes por más de 17 años en las vegas y sé que es cuando un cliente o comensal tiene una petición o simplemente espera un buen servicio al lugar que visita por que por más hambre que tenga busca es una experiencia agradable y no que alguien lo agreda y lo haga sentir de la peor manera
Espero que cuando alguien lea este artículo se preocupe más por dejar una opinión cuando sea negativa también por que es la única manera que está señora va a dejar de abusar de las personas que frecuentan este restaurante en la eastern con Sahara.
Opinen y dejan saber a los que buscan un buen lugar lo que en realidad...
