El Pollo D'el Rey

Disappointing Experience on National Pollo a la Brasa DayI went to El Pollo D'el Rey with my family to celebrate National Pollo a la Brasa Day for Peru, hoping for a great Peruvian food experience. Unfortunately, it was far from that.We ordered green noodles with meat, salchipapa, and brought someone who had never tried Peruvian food before. The wait time was ridiculous - it took over an hour to get our food. The attention from the staff was poor, with only two waiters and two cooks handling the entire restaurant.To top it off, the dessert was a huge letdown. We ordered marcianos de Lucma, but it tasted more like ice than the fruit itself. Overall, it was an awful experience. One star.

Picked up lunch from here and glad I did! The chicken was well seasoned and very tender without being dry at all. The salad was an unexpectedly addition. The alfajores were indulgent. I also had a maracuya drink that was fresh and a large portion. Will definitely be back! I saw many of the dishes I enjoyed in Peru on other people's tables so will have to try them! The staff was friendly despite being very busy!

This place I had to try. When out of my area, I like to try as many restaurants as I can, especially if they are Peruvian restaurants. This place is not fancy, but it's clean. The drawback today was that their air conditioning unit broke down, so it was a little hot inside, but the service was good although a littleslow, we tried the fish ceviche ,jalea, pollo a la brasa and picarones, every item was delicious.

King's chicken, this is not. How can you have Chicken as part of your name and mess it up?! We ordered the half chicken meal ($17.50 is expensive) and the dark meat portion was not cooked well; it was reddish with traces of blood. We sent it back and they said they didn't have any more dark meat parts?! What?! how can you run out of chicken pieces at a fried chicken place?They brought white meat instead. There were leftover plumage pieces visible and it looked as if had been cooked hours before. Can't speak of the other dishes but we will certainly not be back or recommend this place.and then, 15% included tip.

A must try! Don't let the appearances fool you, their food is DELICIOUS. Their ceviche, lomo saltado, rotisserie chicken and anticuchos are some of their specialties. No other Peruvian restaurant compares to the food quality this place has.

I'm Peruvian, and I'm always looking for that restaurant that takes me closer to the food from my home country. This restaurant is by far the best Peruvian food in town. The restaurant is not the pretties but the food is amazing! Try la leche de tigre Diego style.

Peruvian food is one of my favorite type of Latin American food! I've tried a few things on their menu and I need to share how awesome there food is. First off I've tried a few other Peruvian places around Doraville and tucker area and I keep coming back here because it's simply the best. The rotisserie chicken is by far the best here. It's so crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The fries that come with it (you have a choice of rice or fries) are good. It also comes with a side of salad. There is nothing special about the salad except for the house dressing they make! My god I love the house dressing!!! Idk what they put in that dressing but it's my favorite dressing EVER! The lomo saltado is also great. Taste authentic, and that's what I always look for in a lomo. Looking forward to trying the chicken lomo saltado. Last but not least no matter what you order you need to order an alfajor for desert. It's a crumbly cookie with dolce de leche filling. They are incredibly good here. I've tried alfajores in too many places coming out disappointed but these did not let me down. My coworkers and I eat these on our cheat day and look forward to it every week.Only reason I did not give this place a fifth star is because their service is lacking. I've never dined in but there have been a few people vocalizing their how upset they are with the service. The first time I picked up it took them 45 min to complete my order. If you've made it this far into my review- thank you for taking the time! Hopefully this was helpful :)

This place is terrible. Ordered half a chicken with the two of us as it was recommended that this is Peru's speciality. It was old, no particular spices, fries were old and salad is just a lot of iceberg lettuce with mayo on it. For $22 ?! Makes you think there is nothing special about Peruvian food. We regret not going to Chick-fil-A. Would have been better for that money. This restaurant does Peruvian cuisine a disservice.

This place is very busy on the weekends and you will wait so be aware! The service of certain waitresses isn't the best. Others do better. However the food is delicious which is the reason I come back! I've tried pollo a la brasa, lomo saltado, ceviche, arroz chaufa and all of it is the best!

The five stars are for the food and service. The restaurant itself is plain and a bit threadbare, but clean and quite. For the food, the beef heart "appetizer" will feed a small family some of the most tender and flavorful meat you've ever eaten. And the house made hot sauce, while very hot (and the owner came out to caution us!) is one of the most flavorful Peruvian pepper sauces I have ever tasted. The fried chicken with fries and the rice dish with chicken and shrimp (think fried rice with a ton of savory flavor) were also great food. No alcohol is served, but go for the food and booze it up somewhere else.
