Don't let the long lines here scare you -- the staff works like a well-oiled machine when it comes to chopping the juicy Peruvian-style chickens.

I'm really suprised no one else has written a reveiw of El Pollo Rico. The chicken here is quite simply amazing. The Peruvian spices add a really wonderful taste to the chicken and the rotisserie process really keeps the meat succulent and moist. Don't come here looking for atmosphere - you only come for the food. It's actually pretty shady looking from the outside but once you sink your teeth into the chicken you'll be hooked. You get fries and some other side dishes with your meal...the fries taste the best after they've soaked up the chicken's juices. They also serve Inka Cola here, which is disgusting - too sweet for my taste. In any event, I highly recommend El Pollo Rico for a different take on rotisserie chicken!
