“Amazonia is a great bar/restaurant. Daniel was a great server and recommended great veggie options. The food and drinks came out promptly with great presentation and the upstairs staff was all really friendly. Can’t say the same for the downstairs hostess who wouldn’t let me go up to Amazonia without asking her and then couldn’t find my reservation after asking me the details 3 times and not being able to pull it up. After she pulled it up she said none of my party was there even though everyone but me was there. Maybe it’s a communication thing between upstairs and downstairs but for such an expensive restaurant, the hostess shouldn’t try and fight you as you’re walking in.“
“Great food! Excellent service!!Andres was our server and he made our dinning experience wonderful! The kitchen was also able to accommodate our dietary restrictions and the food was delicious! 10 out of 10!Dietary restrictions: Reduced salt and dairy free“
“My wife and I had dinner on our anniversary and the food and service was outstanding. The menu is full of outstanding options and the atmosphere and vibe is great for date night or dinner with friends. Definitely one of the best restaurants in DC!“
“Our visit to La Canela was truly phenomenal! The flavors of the food were simply incredible, and the portions were generous. I opted for the Seco de Cabrito (Lamb shank) while my wife savored the Arroz con Mariscos (seafood rice). To start, we enjoyed the Agua de Tigre appetizer, which set the tone for a fantastic dining experience. Every dish we tried was exceptional, leaving us thoroughly impressed and satisfied. It's safe to say that we will be returning to La Canela without hesitation to indulge in more of their delicious offerings. It was a culinary experience worth repeating!“
“I usually end my rough days with a fruit salad for dinner, well, it's mostly grape actually ,ok all grapes , fermented grapes, I usually have wine for dinner.

Carménère. Chianti. Grenache. Moscato. Petite Sirah. Riesling. Sauvignon Blanc.Blaufränkisch. Cabernet Franc. Chardonnay. Gamay. Grüner Veltliner. Malbec. Pinot Grigio / Gris. Rosé Wine. Syrah & Shiraz. ...Bordeaux. Cabernet Sauvignon. Chenin Blanc. Gewürztraminer. Merlot. Nebbiolo. Pinot Noir. Rioja. Sparkling Wines. Stunningly i ended buying boxes of Spanish wines from Spain wineries. I am giving a 5 stars review for the wines,place and the staff..“
“This restaurant delivers what matters most. Great food and great service. The food is fresh and flavorful. There is a wide selection! I have just opted to go down the menu everything is good. And the front end staff is patient, friendly and aims to please. Well worth the ride for excellent take-out!“
“Delicious food. Fast and friendly service. Great prices. Portions are generous. We typically get the whole chicken with 3 sides and it's enough for two people to have dinner and leftovers for lunch the next day. Perfect for busy weeknights.We were devastated when Huacatay closed, but we're very relieved that once again there is top notch chicken again. Highly recommend.“
“This place is hands-down my favorite fast casual in DC. Fast, high quality, great value, and fresh. Just go here if you're looking for something and read this review.Oh 100% get the plantains everytime!! The tomato onion salad is good too if you like onions! (Tomato people won't like it as much but I think it's perfect)“
“Although it was mostly empty when we visited on a weekday evening, the venue and convenient location are appealing. Friendly staff and fair prices, what's not to like. Being first time here, and not knowing the regular portions and size of the chicken, we ordered the whole chicken family meal with 3 sides. It was much more than we could handle. The chicken was good. I think he gave us an extra piece (leftover?) and perhaps that's why we had so much. The Brussels Sprouts was the star of the place - sweet and savory, delicious. 5 stars! We changed our mind at the last minute, and decided to eat in. Can't say it's the cold temperature, but the chicken was cold to the touch for some reason. Maybe it was the extra piece we got. Regardless, it's worth a trip, and will visit again when I have a craving for Peruvian cuisine.“
“The food is tasty and always serviced with a smile. I've been here for take out and the staff is always friendly. Sometimes I'll wait for a few minutes while they cook my food and it's always a joy to watch them. They recently started a chicken and side special on Wednesday night that I look forward to. It's a great way to get some delicious chicken without getting the whole bird.“
“Came here late night for some food before hitting the next spot but pleasantly surprised at the club in the back. Two birds one stone type of deal. Line moved quick, the food came just as quick and it was great. We had the chicken, plantains, yucca, the corn mix, slaw and the guac came with plantain chips. It definitely hit the spot and I was fully was prepared to get my drank on in the next room instead of going to another spot. Mission success.“
“Been here dozens of times over the years. And the rumors are true. Easily the best pollo a la brasa place in the area. Chicken and sauces are reliably excellent and very reasonably priced. Feeding a family of four with room to spare for $22 is something you can't even do at McDonalds these days. Sides are limited in variety, but they're ok. Only gripe is the fried yuca is often chewy, hard, and/or dry. But skip that menu item, and you'll be fine.“
“This is still the best place in Beltsville to eat, and the best rotisserie chicken by far. The dining area could use some sound deadening material.The alfajores used to be melt-in-your-mouth delicious. They're still good, but not like they used to be.Go, eat. You won't be disappointed.“
“Did a pick up order. The Steak sandwich was really really good and whatever bread they used was really good too. Empanadas were good but nothing special in my opinion, however I wasn't a huge fan of the dip, which seemed to be just sour cream. Calamari was decent but I wouldn't pay $11 for it again. Overall, pretty nifty little spot.“
“If you are looking for the true flavor of a good ceviche, I recommend this place, it is the true authentic flavor that I hope to have on my palate from a ceviche and not to mention the cocktails, I really loved them and especially one called la freckle and The Peruvian drink Pisco is delicious. We will return to this place from now on it will be in my favorite restaurants. The service is all very friendly and helpful. The bartender Luis Number One is very friendly and quick in preparing your drinks. He is a super bartender☝? at the bar I think. who serve you better?“
“I went there for lunch today and everything was perfect—the atmosphere, service, friendly waiters, & great food! I had the Pollo Saltado (chicken w/french fries & rice) & my work bestie had the Lengua Guisada (beef tongue w/potatoes & rice). And for dessert…Alfajores (anise cookies w/creamy dulce de leche caramel)! ?“
“Got the 1/4 chicken and 2 sides. Chicken was fantastic! Great flavor even on the white meat, not dry at all. Side were tasty really liked the Brussels. They had the real Madrid game on, but the atmosphere was nice, family friendly. Star was very helpful.“
“Tiny rotisserie chicken shop in a good location. There’s even a few tables outside on a cute patio. The food was delicious, can’t recommend the plantains enough. We placed a to go order in person and had had our food in less than 2 minutes. After a 5 minute walk the food was still steaming hot and super fresh when we got home. And the pricing is some of the best in the area. The staff all seemed super friendly. This is a new repeat spot for a quick and tasty weeknight meal.“
“Love this Peruvian chicken place. I'd been going here ever since it opened. I hadn't gone for many years bc I moved, but came back for a visit and it's exactly as I remembered it. DELICIOUS!! I wish I had this amazing place near me now. Chicken is juicy and flavorful. The spicy green and mayo sauces complement the chicken so well. My favorite sides are the plantains and rice/bean (they are sooo generous!). Please go to Don Pollo. You won't be disappointed. And there's a very nice dining area as well.“
“Our family are really happy to see there’s a good Peruvian chicken open in our neighborhood! Went to try it today and we ordered a whole chicken with 2 sides of Yuca and potatoes salad. The chicken is really tasty and inside is juicy too! Sides are delicious also. Will definitely recommend! They also have Kung Fu Tea in the same store too:)“
