Delicious Peruvian chicken with sides that leave me wanting to go back constantly. I always get either the quarter or half chicken (dark meat) with green beans and fried plantains, and it is DELICIOUS! There’s an order counter and then you just grab your food when it’s ready and go sit wherever.

I love Canasta’s Chicken. I’ve always gotten the chicken but several months back a coworker told me about the salmon. I tried it and was in love! The salmon was a larger portion than I expected (enough for two meals). It was flavorful, very tender and cooked to order. I didn’t know that they bring your order to you when you dine in; that’s a nice touch. I can’t wait to get the salmon again 😋
