They are always so kind and wonderful at this location. When ordering my take out order, the staffer was so kind and explained everything. I also had groceries with me so my hands were full. I sat down and waited. He then brought over the bags and apologized for the wait. Excellent service. Excellent food. Excellent ambiance. My food was fresh and hot still when I got home. I traveled an hour to this location from my house and it was worth it.

I’ve been ordering from here for 3 years now but the food has gotten worse and worse over time. Recently ordered yellow rice and chicken, came out extremely salty and not edible.

I had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at Don Pollo! The service was top notch! The food was DELICIOUS! They closed for 2 hours for just my celebration! They re-opened but those of us who wanted to stay, did and had more meals and drinks. The calamari was SO tasty and the best I have ever had! What I most love about this restaurant is that the food is consistently well cooked and seasoned! I am hoping to go back many times to continue to try new meals every time I go!

Food and drinks were delicious, we ordered the mixed ceviche and lomo saltado with natural fruit juices. Restaurant is clean and a relaxing atmosphere. Service was amazing, staff is very nice and friendly. Will come again, my new favorite Peruvian spot hands down.

Absolutely the best. Me encanta comer aqui!!!! Especialmente- especially when our main girl is there. She’s such an amazing restaurant manager- truly cares for her people to have the best experience and whether we get to talk to her or not, her energy alone can make me come back here over n over again. The food is REALLy DELICIOUS TOO :-)

An Instant Favorite. Here's Why:
The ambience? Impeccable. It's like stepping into a sleek, modern dream where someone’s abuela is still running the kitchen. The food is unapologetically authentic—each bite feels like a love letter to tradition wrapped in a contemporary vibe.
Now, let’s talk about that green sauce. Whoever invented it deserves a Nobel Prize. I wanted to pour it on everything: my fries, my existential dread. Can I put it in my coffee? Probably not. Will I? Still debating.
Service was top-notch—warm, attentive, and somehow intuitive. I had the pleasure of meeting the owners, and let me tell you, it’s rare to meet people so genuinely dedicated to their craft and their customers. Passion like that can’t be faked—it’s infused into every plate.
Oh, and did I mention the food is incredible? Of course I did. But it’s worth repeating—because it is that good.

WOW WOW WOW! I have nothing but amazing things to say about this restaurant. The food was phenomenal, the atmosphere was relaxing, modern and clean, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Drinks are delicious, I highly recommend the red sangria! The empanadas are also a must and the red snapper will from now on be my go to plate! Whether you just want a place to chill, go on a date, or hang with family, this spot will be perfect for any occasion! Go check it out, you won’t regret it.

The experience was very good and the attention was even better. I went to eat a lomo saltado, but the waitress Rosa was very accommodating and showed me the special dishes, so I ended up eating a salmon bathed with seafood in sauce, which was tasty. In the end he offered me desserts and suggested the flan, which was very good. I will surely return!
They raised the prices and they are giving little food. It is no longer the service it used to be. It is terrible. I am a daily customer but I will have to stop buying from them. The price I pay for little food is too much.
Flavorful chicken and amazing service

5 Stars for Don Pollo!
Don Pollo’s “Bistec a lo Pobre” is a hearty and flavorful delight. The tender steak, topped with a fried egg and served with crispy fries, rice, and sweet plantains, perfectly captures the essence of Peruvian comfort food. A must-try for authentic and satisfying flavors!
