“The service was slow but this was some of the freshest, hottest chicken I've ever had at a Popeyes. The quality was fantastic. I got chicken and a chicken sandwich. I got the chicken sandwich with extra sauce and pickles and they loaded up the pickles in the sauce. This Popeyes knows how to do the food right. They speed it up and this might be the best Popeyes there ever was“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Got seated immediately. The server Omozele was fantastic, filling not just my own drink but other patrons; as well as taking our orders the moment we put down our menus. Great spot for a long lunch or for a more casual lunch/dinner and beer with friends or coworkers.“

“Crisp & Juicy delivers exactly what its name promises—perfectly cooked Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken that’s both mouthwateringly juicy on the inside and satisfyingly crisp on the outside. The chicken is marinated in traditional Peruvian spices, slow-roasted, and served with a smoky, addictive flavor that’s hard to replicate. Their signature green and yellow sauces take everything to the next level—whether you’re dipping the chicken, fries, or even just spooning it straight. It’s simple, flavorful, and consistently well-executed.

Beyond the chicken, the sides round out the experience: yuca fries that are golden and crunchy, flavorful rice, and plantains that add a touch of sweetness. The portions are generous, the service is quick, and the vibe is laid-back—perfect for takeout or a casual meal. Crisp & Juicy doesn’t try to be fancy—it just does one thing really well: comfort food with bold flavor. It’s the kind of place that turns first-timers into loyal regulars“

“I have ate and picked up takeout many times at the Crisp & Juicy on my way home from running errands or after a long bike ride and the food is always good and the service friendly. Today I got the Grill combination platter and the fries were cooked to perfection, nice and crispy. The chicken and sausage were delicious. If you want consistently yummy food at a good price make the crisp and juicy one of your regular spots.“

“Our server made our dining experience enjoyable. He stated that he doesn't write down orders and we put his skills to the test. The food was good, we could tell that the menu has changed. The Peach Bourdon Sangria was really good. If you're in the Gallery Place/Chinatown Area, go to Clyde's!“

“The waffle were delicious!“

“we LOVE Chick-fil-A anywhere, but this new on in DC is Amaaaaaaazing!!! Clean and neat! The staff is SO friendly! The owner is awesome and helps the community.“

“Both the service and food were outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟The spicy miso soup was delicious, and the noodles were incredibly chewy. I loved it!“

“Very nicely priced tasty dinners- half chicken with suitably prepared sides- plantains, rice and beans, vegetable rice. Spicy sauces also can kick up the flavor a notch. Pleasant courteous professional staff in a clean well lighted place. I will recommend to come here“

“I love Hot Lola’s! When they were in Rosslyn, I went all the time, and now that they’ve consolidated to this location, I still can’t get enough. It’s simply the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had. The sandwich is always fantastic, and the staff are great. If you haven’t tried it yet, you have to. It really is the best!“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“I had an amazing experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken, and a big part of that was thanks to Terrill. From the moment I walked in, he was welcoming, professional, and genuinely friendly. He took the time to make sure my order was exactly right and even gave great recommendations.

What really stood out was his attitude—he was patient, upbeat, and clearly cares about giving customers a great experience. Even when it got busy, he stayed calm and kept everything moving smoothly without making anyone feel rushed.

It’s not every day you come across someone who goes above and beyond like that. Terrill definitely made my visit better, and because of him, I’ll be coming back for sure. Dave’s Hot Chicken is lucky to have him!“

“The Chicken wings here at bbq Chicken and so scrumptious. They're consistently mouth watering and finger licking special. In particular is this the so with the honey garlic. The flavors and the cook are perfectly balanced. They're maybe a dollar more than say Wingstop, but oh man it's worth it and more. Can't go wrong with bbq Chicken.“

“Came here with my daughter and going to go here again. We got both fries and peri fries that came out perfectly crispy and spiced. Peri fries had just a bit of a kick with the seasoning. Shared a Honey Garlic Chicken sandwich and it was perfect. Shared the tenders, which were crisp and jucy. At some point my daughter said to forget about a certain chicken place thats closed on Sundays, this was her new place.“

“First time even hearing about peri peri chicken but wanted to be adventurous. Every single item of my order was filled incredible flavor. I’m talking lick you lips and ask for more type flavor. It’s the one place I have revisit once I’m back. 🥰🥰“

“Excellent customer service, and food was hot and tested good All the people very professional“

“I love the nandos experience....the area is very calming and very easy on the eye..if I ever move to DC that is the area to be in..much respect to Tammy..and the young guy who came to ask if we were good...yes people lets do our part to keep them employed...good job“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was.

“OMG!!!!! When I tell you that I have never tried a tastier roast chicken in the world, it is because it is true.... This place has one of the best foods with a lot of seasoning, it tastes so good and they give you good portions and the prices are fair. THANK YOU I'm going to come every day until I try the entire menu!!!!!!!! <3“

“Very good flavored chicken with tasty side dishes loved it!“

“So delicious! Wish I would have taken a picture but it was so good I couldn't stop eating! There will be a next time! Hands down the best flavored Peruvian I've had. You can taste the seasonings and you can taste that smoky charcoal grilling! Side's are delicious too!“

“First trip to this fast food location and I finally understand the hype. We got half spicy and not. The chicken was juicy but spicy. Don’t underestimate the little flags that say spicy on the chicken because the spice level is on point. The adobo rice was dangerously addictive, and the gravy deserves its own fan club. The spaghetti caught me off guard because it was so sweet and had hotdog pieces in it. It’s definitely unique as a fast food option and more on the fun, kid-friendly side than traditional pasta, but for sure if you have a toddler, he or she will enjoy eating it. The Palabok was different because it had a strong shrimp flavor. The guava, lychee, and pineapple drinks were all refreshing and not your typical fast food drink options. Ordering through the app was easy, and pickup was a breeze. Overall, delicious 😋“

“The combination between African and Portuguese is espectacular!“

“Food was good but they cheap with sauce. You bought 1 order of 1/2chicken w/2sides you get the same amount of sauce for 4 orders of 1/2 chicken. This is in Bowie Md location. I guess I am not coming back there again.“

“I loved the chicken it’s rotisserie, or fried version, the chicken is consistently tender and juicy. It is seasoned perfectly, with a rich, savory flavor that feels authentic and fresh. The portions are often generous, making it a satisfying choice for a main course.“

“Nice neighborhood & foods“

“Very nice shopping center for ward 7 🫶🏿“

“This is the perfect place to stop in and grab a quick bite. There is one table, and plenty of space inside of the bar next door to eat, but I love having the option to just grab-n-go when I want something really good to eat at home. There is a good amount of side options and entrees, and you can order from a couple different menus, similar to a ghost kitchen, if you're in the mood for a different type of cuisine.“

“I was new to the area and just finished a job and was extremely hungry. After scrolling around I found a place that had some food I recognized. Little did I know it would be one of the best plates I’ve had EVER! I had the chicken wings with O.G. Hot Sauce. OMG!!! The crispy breading. The flavor. The tender meat. I couldn’t stop licking my fingers. The waffle fries were well seasoned and fresh. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I also want to add that the hostess was so patient with me because I didn’t have a clue what I was going to get. Absolutely outstanding. Five stars all around.“

“Great little place! First time here, so did not try their corn dogs. But, wow, probably the best chicken tenders I've ever had! Amazing soft, juicy, intensely flavorful. They had like 5 or 6 dipping sauces, and I got hot so my mouth is now completely on fire. Next time will likely choose medium.“

“I was feeling home sick, I seen NY sigh and wanted to try and I'm so happy I did. If you from New York then you know Kenny chicken and it tastes just like it, omg. If know, know lol. Such amazing customer service on top of great food. I will be back.“

“Great atmosphere and amazing hot sauces!!!!! A must if you are in town!!“
