IF YOU ARE BLACK DO NOT GO THERE!!!!!!This place is RACIST and the workers are RACIST.My first time here, headed to the register to order, greeted the employee saying hello. The lady that works on the register looked at me without greeting back and said “give me a second”.I patiently waited about 3 minutes while she’s counting the money that was in the drawer and finally said to me in a very rude way can I help you?I told her my order but unfortunately she ignored again and greeted and talked to the other customers that were standing behind me in a very nice way to the point I was surprised. (they were Latino).I got very frustrated and asked her and the other workers for the manager but surprisingly all of them said there is no manager.I came to eat and left hungry and frustrated because of you all I will never ever go to this dirty place never and again y’all are the absolute worst!!!!!!

Great chicken and value! I got the 1/4 white meat with yucca and cucumber salad. The yucca was perfectly fried and fluffy in the middle and the cuke salad really brought balance to the meal.

This is my spiritual successor to my old favorite in Wheaton that was called The Chicken Place. They left many years ago but, I've been searching for a place as good. This is that place. Food was fast and fresh. Two things that don't always go together but, they do

The chicken was in parts, it was a bit raw and the very hard rice was not ready?

This place was pretty good and really packed upon arrival. Food came out in a good time and good amount of seating available. The chicken was good but kind of dry and the rice and beans were pretty flavorful and cooked nicely. I was shocked that they had chicharrón de pollo as a Dominican woman whose culture also specializes in that had to give it a try, well it definitely wasn't like the one we have but instead chicken tenders just fried up none the less still good and what made it better was that onion and tomato slaw on top. It gave it this refreshing yet vinegar punch it was so good we got some to go, with that being said they charge 3 dollars for a small size portion the size of my 5 year olds hand. The yuca fries were cooked all differently some were fried to perfection some were fried and tasted as if they sat out too long and then others were fried not long enough and tasted raw. Cashier was nice but the lady calling out the numbers and orders wasn't so friendly it's really all over the place when coming to this establishment hopefully as a team they can work together and prices for certain items don't continue to overly priced.

I picked up a whole chicken with two sides for dinner and the chicken was super dry. I picked it up during dinner time, so not sure why it wasn't fresh. Very disappointing. The chicken was actually chewy, ugh.

Simple but well-prepared food. Friendly and hard working staffs.?Clean environment.However the quality of chicken is not satisfying.?Probably won't come back again.

We used to eat here often; unfortunately the food has changed and not for the better. The chicken is not near as fresh (this has happened twice now). I have also had mistakes on my take out order which never use to happen. Ambiance is ok for this kind of restaurant.

We did a to go order for this place the chicken was good and seasoned really well but the fried rice was nasty it wasn't tasteful at all, I was expecting to have chicken in it but I was thinking of Sardis but next time I will just go there lol it was okay but I probably would not go back

The chicken wings were a little bit too salty and overcooked for me. But I had to admit that they were really quick!

I have only been here once and the three food was better than expected. I got a chicken bowl and it was quite delicious. The portion was large enough to make two meals out of it. The chicken was perfectly cooked and had that great Peruvian chicken flavor.
