“Iris is amazing! She made my food perfectly, she helped me with ordering and she was beyond pleasant! She is definitely an asset to the Isaac company. I watched her interact with other patrons and she never lost her smile. She was so knowledgeable of the menu and gave excellent recommendation. Thank you for a pleasant first experience - we will definitely be back again!“

“Stayed at a local hotel and ordered from Door Dash. SECRET SPICY CHICKEN was great. Pretty much like General Tso's Chinese but a tad spicier. Large pieces of good quality chicken, even the medium order was too much for me. Pair it with steamed white rice, put the rice in the sauce. Very good.“

“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!“

“First off, the staff are friendly, professional, and very helpful! They’re patient and always ready with great suggestions. If you can’t decide, you can even sample the chicken salads. They also checked in to make sure the food was to your enjoyment. The environment is upbeat and spotless — even the bathrooms are clean!

Now, on to the food! Everything is delicious 😋. The daily soups are savory and warm you right to the core. I had the Classic Carol on toasted wheat, and it did not disappoint! The prices are fair for the amount and quality of food you get. The food walls served very quickly, less than 5 minutes from ordering to get to your table! Highly recommend!

Looking forward to my next visit!!“

“Good food! Fast service, friendly and Courteous staff.“

“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'm always satisfied with my order from this restaurant. The food is fresh, flavorful, chicken is plentiful and its served relatively quickly.

Note: the menu offerings may be correct but the prices in the pictures may not be.“

“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“

“The most beautiful thing is that when you enter the workers who are in front, they fight for you. It is the most beautiful thing that I have seen. In other places, hot food is not like this place and you don't expect much in what you already ask the cook. He is working in your order.blessings.to all“

“This place is almost always hopping so we decided to try it for ourselves. The chicken was very flavorful and juicy, the yucca had good flavor but also was very soggy by the time we got home a little less than 10 minutes later. The beans were a bland, but the Peruvian fried rice was top notch.

It won't replace our normal go to spot for pollo a la brasa but it's easy to see why these guys have been in business since the 80s. Would definitely recommend trying this spot out.“

“I bought a surprise bad using the Too Good To Go app. It is a great way to save money and also prevent good food/supplies from being thrown away. It is reasonable and convenient, no need to cook.

The customer service was good. The cashier was pleasant and the food was delivered promptly.

The meal tasted fresh and was served hot.

Good buy!“

“Great chicken sandwich. It's high for a chicken sandwich but you get 2 breast on each sandwich. Each comes with flavor from mild to very hot. I got medium and it was just right flavor for me. You get more fries than 5 guys so we shared 1 fry and it was plenty.“

“The food here is absolutely delicious, crispy, flavorful chicken that hits the spot every time. The sandwich was perfectly seasoned, and the fries were fresh and satisfying. You can tell they put care into the quality, and it really shows in the taste.
That said, the price point is tough to swallow. Over $16 for just one sandwich and fries feels excessive, especially when compared to similar spots. I’d love to come back more often, but the cost makes it more of an occasional splurge than a regular go-to.
If you’re looking for amazing chicken and don’t mind paying a premium, Hangry Joe’s won’t disappoint. Just be prepared for the sticker shock.“

“Went there last night.
The food arrived about 50 minutes late, which was frustrating. However, the place was quite busy, so it was somewhat understandable. The manager came over, apologized sincerely, and even offered us a free meal coupon for our next visit as a gesture of goodwill. That kind of customer service definitely helped turn the experience around.“

“No matter what time of day, this is THE BEST Peruvian Chicken around!“

“Best hot chicken place in the area. Lifehack if you're spice slut like me: Get the hottest and then ask for a side of the hot seasoning. Their hot isn't just hot for the sake of hot it's got real flavor to it!

If you like heat, this place should be on your regular itinerary. 😁“

“🌶❤️🌶 We love the delicious chicken at Nando’s! They have awesome vegetarian items as well! Get the warm pastels de Natas for dessert. Life changing!!“

“the friendly atmosphere the food was AWESOME“

“I've only been once to this location and only ordered a chicken sandwich which was magnificent 🤤. We have fined in another location out in California on our first time and really enjoyed it. The staff here is very pleasant, friendly, and professional.“

“Don’t listen to the haters. I work right across the street and I’d still rather eat here than in the cafeteria. Plus I get a swim in while I’m at it. Great practice if you’re ever thinking about an Ironman. I used this spot as part of my training regimen and managed to hit both my protein goals and my weekly swim target.“

“Ordered the 4 piece chicken with fries and beans. The chicken was delicious and fried to perfection and beans were fine but the fries were reheated and inedible. I was surprised because I was told I had a 5 minute wait so they could make the fries. The next time won’t order fries. Shame because the chicken was good.“

“This is my second time here. The service is friendly, food made to order and hot and fresh. The drinks are refreshing, this time I tried the strawberry lemonade and it was delicious. As far as food my sister loved the chicken sandwich and fries. I loved my seafood boil. The price is worth the love put into the food.“

“My neighbor and I just stopped in 9-25-25 on our way home from work. I’ve tried all the chicken spots. This is the best I’ve had!!! The staff… super friendly. The beans and rice... amazing! That chicken was fresh and hot!
We will come back soon!“

“Nice neighborhood & foods“

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

“My family and I enjoy the delicious catfish, pork chop dinners and siders monthly very much. The menu drinks are very good too.“

“Once again, this location can not get my order correct. Ongoing issue since covid. I'm done with them“

“Cool little place inside an old auto repair garage. Very informal, prices are reasonable for DC. Panang chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious, full flavored with a hot kick! French fries were also very good. The rotisserie half chicken was just OK, a bit bland and it was reheated in a microwave. So we thought it might have been cooked many hours previously.“

“Fire! My son and a friend love it. I am starting to warm up to it. We eat there often breakfast, lunch or dinner ! Oh! They have a great system of having people come take your order while you are in line. This is cool! Gives people work and speeds up the service for customers! Congratulations.“

“If you're in the mood for great Peruvian style chicken, stop by Pollo Central in the Aspen Hill Shopping Center. I've been getting carryout there for 2 years and they never disappoint. My go-to order is 1/2 chicken with fries and beans. In addition, I'll add some street tacos on the side. Everything is excellent. You can't go wrong with either chicken or al pastor with the street tacos, and the mayonnaise sauce I use for dipping my fries is addictive! The restaurant is always clean, and the staff is quick and efficient, so the wait is never long. Whether you're dining in or waiting for carryout, there are two large screens showing international soccer matches or news to help pass the time. This is a perfect after work stop for a great, reasonably priced dinner.“

“Muy rico 😋 el pollo Popeyes“

“good food fast service. the spicy chicken was good.“

“Went by there today (3/31/25) at 7 am and they were closed.
Mr Young and his wonderful wife are in South Korea and the business has been sold (handed off) to the same owners are the tobacco shop next store. The same workers still work at Youngs (as of 2 weeks ago when I was last in there); but the hours of operation may need to be updated.“

“I am stunned in how delicious this chicken was. I actually wish I would have ordered more. The chicken is so flavorful that you don’t need the sauces provided. I also got a chicken pupusa. It was bland but at the same time, I couldn’t stop eating it. It was stuffed with lots of chicken, which was pretty impressive. Service was great, food was better than expected. A must try if you’re around here.“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! The food is delicious and the orange sauce is to die for. My all time favorite ❤️“

“They don’t speak a lick of English but DAMN do they know they way around a kitchen and plate.

Pulled up otw home from out the city. I have an hour drive and I do not feel like I’ll have the bandwidth to cook tonight. Got half chicken with two sides and MAAM, Abuela in the back knows how to throw together an amazing dinner.

No excessive wait, efficiency and a good meal. It’s now the go to when I don’t feel like cooking“

“I found this place on line, came down there with the family to check it out, at first I was going with the reviews. I found online, but I decide to give it a shot. Good thing I did. The food was great delicious the flavor was there. The carne asada con serdo was amazing, Sabor NICA 👍💯“

“The food was awesome! Atmosphere was beautiful 🤩“

“Their food is the best my favorite is torta mexicana ,pescado frito their fries taste so delicious dip in there white sauce I also Love their customer service and how family-friendly they are . There dessert is die for .“

“During the Quarantine we ordered on the phone and picked up. Delicious whole chicken, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies. $20.00. All the rules of the pandemic were followed to the “T” . Found new place for take-out.“
