“The Peruvian chicken we had delivered for my company's meeting was an absolute home run. The chicken was incredibly juicy, and packed with flavor, but it was the legendary green and yellow sauces that completely stole the show. It was delivered exactly on time and was incredibly easy to set up, making it the perfect stress-free, crowd-pleasing upgrade from the usual boring corporate sandwich platters.“

“The service and food were exceptional. I had a family sized order, and they ensured that my chicken was cut and contacted me prior to my scheduled pick up time to inform me that they were out of corn and provided an ample substitute side. I almost left without my drinks, and they caught me before I drove off to brought out my drinks to me. I greatly appreciated their kindness and service.“

“This place does not disappoint! Best staff, service and food! The chicken and fries are the best! I used to go to Eddie’s but after their restaurant burned their chicken was never the same so we started to come here and we love it! Yesterday they were so busy they had an hour wait but we had been craving their chicken for weeks so we went to run some errands and came back to pick up our chicken! It was delicious! Highly recommend this place!“

“Best rotisserie chicken in DC area! C & J is our go-to carryout for delicious meals that travel well: consistently perfect chicken, rice and beans, slaw, etc. You can eat in but it’s bare bones—clean, not fancy. We’ve been going to this place for years and have never been disappointed. Only downside—we miss you when we’re away. I’d give more stars if i could!“

“I have been visiting this place, and I regret not discovering it sooner. The food is delicious, served in generous portions, and if you come in feeling tired after work, the staff will take care of you with genuine warmth. The restaurant is clean and has great music suitable for families, couples, and singles. I’ve dined at other restaurants, but I can confidently say that Wild Chicken offers exceptional customer service.“

“Delicious beef stew soup with rice. Pure comfort food for those chilly days!“
“A new place so we tried it out. All of the traditional dishes were great. The chicken being the main event. My spouse likes tilapia so she tried it. It was not good. It is not a filet so loaded with bones. Worse, it looked and tasted like it had been cooked hours before and sat under a heat lamp. Everything else was good. The folks are nice and the atmosphere is fresh and clean.“

“We spent 5 days here in this area and went to at least 10 restaurants. This is the only restaurant that I would recommend highly. The filet mignon saltados was cooked better than the $100 steak we had somewhere else. This dish was only $21.“

“Amazing customer service delicious food and fast service please go check it out“
“This place looked good so we wanted to give it a try. We got the pollo saltado (chicken with red onion and fries in a tasty sauce with rice) and pesto lomo (beef with spaghetti in a basil pesto). Both were served with garlic bread, and both were delicious. I asked for the chicken to be without tomatoes. Unfortunately it was served with tomatoes, but Geraldine apologized and quickly replaced it with no tomatoes. We also tried the raspberry cola inglesa (yum) and flancocho - a chocolate / vanilla-ish (?) cake that was delicious. The prices seemed a bit high, but the food and menu seemed very authentic. 100% Peruvian according to them... Our bill said "Hot and cold" so maybe it's their partner?“
“Absolutely delicious! So glad we found this spot. The food was great and generous portions. We ordered online and everything was ready when we arrived. It's one of several options at a food court in a grocery store so super convenient for us as we were from out of town.“

“The chicken here is absolutely amazing, Unfortunately, the staff seemed a bit lost when I asked about the menu items. Their English was also really hard to understand, which made ordering a bit of a challenge. I'm hoping these issues get sorted out because I'd really like to give it another shot. The food itself was just that good!“

“The food here is amazing. I had to check myself a few times because I was sitting there devouring my dinner like an animal, lol. The chicken was crispy outside and juicy inside. The plantains and green beans stood out on their own even without rhe chicken. At any other restaurant, green beans are just a filler side item, but here they are standout delicious. Possibly the best I have ever eaten. They cleaned tables as soon as customers left. Service was great. We were totally impressed with this place. We looked at other places for dinner, and left here convinced that there is no other restaurant within nearby that would have been more satisfying.“

“I was actually shocked that when I looked and saw this place had a 4.2 stars. When we got here, we were happily surprised by cute patio setup where you can sit outside with umbrellas right on wisconsin avenue.The staff was extremely friendly.They showed us the specials for the day, which was a really good deal on a half white chicken, with two sides for fifteen dollars... I ordered plantains and cucumber salad and the cucumber salad was amazing.Very light, very refreshing and perfectly seasoned, and the french fries here are also very good. This is now my new chicken spot!“

“Real peruvians doing real Peruvian things. We are the pollo a la brasa and it was delicious. I phoned it in and I got there the exact time the gentleman on the phone said it would be ready. It was ready, hot and fresh. After a journey back home. The freshness was still there.“

“Bottom line, you want good chicken, look no further. Been here multiple times and it’s always delicious. The dining space is basic, but clean, if a little worn. If soccer isn’t on the screens, it’s NEWSMAX. So, take from that what you will.“

“I’ve been coming to this location for many years, going all the way back to when this place was called El Rancho. Even back then, it was my go-to spot for Peruvian chicken. The skin was always perfectly cooked, the chicken was marinated to perfection, and the level of service was consistently excellent.
Over the years, the restaurant evolved into Hondu Pollo, introducing Honduran flavors alongside their classic Peruvian dishes. In my opinion, this change only made the place better. The menu now offers a great mix of Honduran and Peruvian options, and everything I’ve tried has been flavorful and satisfying.
One thing I truly appreciate is how welcoming the environment is. I don’t speak Spanish, and at times I feel like I might be the only non-Spanish speaker in the room lol but that has never been an issue. The staff has always been friendly, patient, and helpful, and I’ve consistently felt welcomed every time I visit.
They’ve also made some updates to the interior over the years. There’s now a small bar area where the coolers used to be, and interestingly enough, they even have slot machines. At first, you might think that would make the place less family-friendly, but that hasn’t been my experience at all. I still see families with children there all the time, and the environment remains comfortable and community-oriented.
If I had to point out one area for improvement, it would be menu pricing accuracy. On my most recent visit, I ordered the pollo saltado, which was listed on the screen as $14.99, but the receipt showed $16.99, bringing the total to just under $19 with tax. The price is still reasonable for the portion and quality, but updating the menu boards for accuracy would improve transparency and prevent confusion.
That said, this place absolutely earns five stars from me. I’ve had Peruvian chicken from many places over the years, and Hondu Pollo remains one of the best I’ve ever had. The food is consistently delicious, the portions are generous, the service is reliable, and the welcoming atmosphere keeps me coming back year after year.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for authentic, flavorful Peruvian and Honduran cuisine.“
