Chicken Rico

Great food! Always fresh and hot. I love the half chicken, green beans and mashed potatoes. Really good!

Update: Someone has responded to my review, seemingly defending the experience I had. No we did not pick our food up after the recommended time for p/u when I placed the order. We have young children and we like to feed them well before 9 so we definitely didn't come at closing time. Nonetheless as I said the experiences we've had since the fire are definitely less enjoyable. ------------Chicken Rico was once our families favorite no cooking night meal. Once they had that fire and did renovations, we have seen a big change in everything; the gravy is very watery now, the chicken has less flavor, the prices are higher. It's just not the same, unfortunately. In our most recent visit I called ahead and placed an order for Lomo saltado. My sister also placed an order for pick up of half chicken and sides, my husband went to pick up our orders and ordered the rest of our selections inside. He got two whole chickens and 3 large sides. He said they didn't have many side selections, only options available that evening were the mashed potatoes, mixed veggies and fried rice. My lomo saltado was dry, cold and not very appealing. I usually love it. The chicken was also pretty bland that day. We wasted a lot of food, I really wish the food was as good as it once was. Not sure what changed but it's something. The inside of the restaurant is also clean, lines are never too long when I go. Customer service is always good.

Came here on 11/16/24. Been to this location a couple of times and never had any issues in the past. But today was a different day. I guess they had a large catering order and wasn't prepared for it. I was hungry for there ribs and was told that it was a 45 minute wait. Chicken had a wait time as well. So I decided to on the Carne asada with black beans, rice and green beans. The steak was bland and very disappointing no seasoning and spice no where to be found. I was heavily disappointed since I have Eaten here numerous times. The sides were good which was the saving grace because that steak was an EPIC!!!!!!!!!! Fail. The restaurant is always clean and customer service is good as well. But, that steak was extreme let down.

Similar to Sardis or any other Peruvian chicken place.d I particularly like their rice. I can literally eat it as a meal. The chicken, egg, veggies, and various seasonings are addicting to say the least. Staff is always pleasant.

A quick visit into town and saw this spot and vowed to try it before leaving. I tried the carna asada and the ribs and chicken combo.. if I would have known how amazing that chicken was going to taste I would have left everything else behind. 10/10 for the chicken.Service was quick and everyone in the establishment was super nice!

Fast service and great chicken. I've changed the route I drive to visit family just so I can do a quick grab and go here. Their sin bathrooms are clean too. This place is worth having to fight Waldorf traffic.

This place was fabulous. Their Cesar Salad was out of this world. Service was very friendly. What I thought was a fast food joint turned out to be remarkable table service. I highly recommend this establishment and wish them nothing but the best.
