I've heard of chirp a few times and this was the time to finally try it after getting recommended it by 2 friends. I wanted the bowl but decided to just get the 1/2 chicken $12 while my friend got the 1/2 chicken with rice and beans for $16. I was a bit disappointed seeing it being pretty small but I enjoyed the taste. The skin is nicely flavored and the meat was tender. The green sauce they had was nice too. I feel like I wouldn't like the bowl as much because I didn't see any skin so it may not have as much flavor. Without the skin, the meat was not very flavorful at all. The price was not too bad but I think I'm a bit spoiled by growing up getting Costco rotisserie chicken for $6 for a while chicken. I enjoyed the chicken but honestly I don't think it's that special. Regardless I'll give it a 4 because there's nothing really wrong about it. It's good rotisserie chicken.

Can here before many times. Brought a friend here since he never had it but heard it was good. I was never prepared to put my reputation on the line for this place. I'm happy to say that it didn't fail. I ordered their new bowl which is shredded chicken and two sides in a bowl. This is exactly how I like it. Truth be told, I always shredded the chicken myself I'm happy to say that that will no longer be necessary! The bowl is literally perfect for what I want. For my two sides I chose brown rice and pinto beans. Everything mixed well along with their delicious green sauce that's not too spicy. It's how I like eating it. The brown rice wasn't the best but it's not a knock on them. Truth be told I always feel like brown rice is hit or miss. I don't think I ever had great brown rice. It wasn't an issue though. I would guess that the white rice tastes a lot better. In general I think most rices taste better than brown. The chicken can be dry and the flavor tends to be in the skin. The meat is tender and delicious. The beans were great and complimented the meal well. The sauce from the beans was much needed and perfect. There was a lot of food and it came out great. They had probably separated the portions but I mixed it all together. Everything mixed together elevated the bowl. My only complaints is that they don't have yellow rice. I also feel as if rice and beans should be considered a single side. I would've liked to have maduros with my meal. Nonetheless it was great and will be on my mind for a long time.

Bad attention night shift. They say they close at 10 p.m. but at 2130 they literally kicked us out with the food half finished... I don't recommend it

First time to try Peruvian food, the food is good but nothing to write home about. The flavors is similar but also different to my native filipino dishes.
I love this place so much. The food is always amazing and high quality. One of my favorite lunch spots, and if i could I'd have it way more often!

Had a quick lunch after a business meeting around that area, and i only had two bites since i had to drive back to the office, but it was amazing! Kept in a fridge for hours and got starving so tried some cold left overs and it is still amazing!! I would def going back to this place and will try some other sides as well!
I chose this shop after coming out of B&H with my purchases. I wanted something different than a subway sandwich. Food was great but the portions were small. I'm used to larger chicken. I guess it would be good for someone on a diet.

Their chicken is really juicy and fresh, not dried out or over seasoned, which is often the case with Peruvian chicken. The price is fair as well. I didn’t try the sauce, side orders or salads but will do so next time . Fast service, cozy atmosphere. they don’t have a public bathroom-that was the only downside.

We have this Gem a try, and it did not disappoint! We tried several dishes and all of them were delicious and the portions were very generous! Our family of 5 loves to try new foods, and they had something for everyone, including vegetarian options, and indoor seating. The sweet woman who helped us said it perfectly “our menu is small but what we do, we do well!” I couldn’t agree more! Hoping to stop by once more before heading back to California to try the other menu options!
