Silvestre Chicken (9423 Georgia Ave)

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!

Best Chicken 🍗 I highly recommend

UPDATE 7/28/25: They don't use the New York Steak Strip. Don't FALSE ADVERTISE this portion of the meat on YOUR MENU if you do not sale it, it's misleading and unprofessional?!!?

One of my favorites restaurant to visit during lunch. Service is always the best from Yessica Marin one of the reason why I come and the food is always at its finest. Cook team member always smiling and ensuring my order is right. Highly recommend them.

Went today for lunch and tried their quesadillas—half rotisserie half steak— so good! Atmosphere was nice too, clean tables and bathroom. Service was great, food was hot and ready in about 12 mins. Portion sizing was big too, saved half the meal for dinner. I will be visiting again!

Phone service is terrible trying to book a reservation was an utter disaster not only was the person possibly incompetent but definitely could not give me any information. Ultimately she just end up hanging up the phone. I asked could anyone else speak English and she just hung the phone up

Wanted a quick lunch from somewhere I could walk to from Holy Cross Hospital. The rotisserie quesadilla was soooo delicious ?. Will probably go out of my way to go again.

I ordered dark meat. They gave me white meat. The chicken was dry. I’m never coming back here.

Terrible place with horrible raw food. The chicken I ordered was raw and old. A disaster of a host, the one at the cashier taking orders. No wonder he was alone at lunch time. It doesn't work.

This is our first time dining here and we will definitely come back. Food was delicious and perfectly seasoned. The rice, sides (yuca and plantain) and salad were great, too. Chef’s kiss!

Parking: There is a metered parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: This restaurant is kid-friendly.

Bad attention!!!!!! I went for the first time with my friend a few minutes after closing the restaurant but they never told us that we couldn't sit down to eat there, we ordered our food and to begin with the order was mixed up they gave us a different order and when we sat down to eat they didn't tell us either that they were already going to close. In short, at 8:10 pm the last person who was in the place almost pushed us out without having finished dinner, I had to throw my food away so she could close. I think the customer always has preference and I could also wait about 5 more minutes to leave satisfied. Maybe the food was not very good, very salty.

The chicken,rice, plantains are fantastic.
