Mr.Pollo Peruvian Charcoal Chicken

This is a delicious little hole in the wall serving Peruvian tacos and other fare. The atmosphere is pretty low-key, but what knocks it down a few stars for me is cleanliness. The kitchen and bathrooms are disgusting, which always makes me wonder if I'm going to get sick after eating here. I haven't yet though...

No frills, but great hearty food. The new cafeteria style line looks like it has some good stuff

Great experience today at Mr. Pollo. The chicken was fresh and the tacos were out of this world! Highly recommend.

Gave mi y mi novio food poisoning! Almost gave it more stars because it was tasty but we were up all night vomitando❌❌

I absolutely like Mr. Pollo! The food is fantastic and super authentic, and the atmosphere is super cozy and inviting. It feels like you’re right back in Peru, with a warm and friendly vibe. The service is top-notch, with great customer service and a staff that’s always ready to help. And the owner, Amal, is the heart and soul of the place.

The menu has a wide variety of flavors and options, not just the classic Peruvian chicken. They also have some delicious Latin-inspired dishes. And if you’re having a party or need catering, they’ve got you covered with bulk orders and catering services. It’s all very convenient and easy.

Been here many times. Food very good. Prices good. Try it, you will like it!!

Food is really good, and the portions are incredible for the price! They always are very accommodating when I request more Serrano peppers with my meals. It's one of my favorite places to go for a good meal!

Never eaten here before. I got a quarter chicken and double veggies for my 2 sides. Everything was awesome!!! I'd definitely eat here again. Good prices, helpful friendly staff, plate came out fast and hot. The little tan sauce...???

I do not recommend this place. The food is expensive and does not taste good. They sell you cold soup and sour soup and if you say something to them they get angry. The attitude of the staff is terrible and disrespectful. Do not waste your time or money in this place.

Very good

Best Peruvian Chicken in the Area!!

Unfortunately Mr. Pollo is under new management and the quality of the food is not the same. I stopped in to pick up some yuca along with rice and beans to go. Sadly, the yuca was the worst I’ve ever been served and I’ve been to MANY Peruvian restaurants throughout Northern Virginia.Another thing I noticed for the first time was they weren’t cooking rotisserie chickens and there were no customers in the restaurant. However, they did increase the size of their buffet style ready to serve lunch/dinner meals. That’s where the beans and rice that I ordered came from which was very dry and bland. Lastly, it appears that they’re cutting back on the jalapeño sauce and the white sauce as the containers were only half full.The remodeled restaurant has a nice feel to it, and the service was friendly and polite. But unfortunately the quality of food has gone downhill and $18 for a rotisserie chicken is pretty expensive. I’ve attached Mr. Pollo yuca Now vs. what it Used to be. Hope this will improve their quality of food.
