Mary's Restaurant

Stay away from this place. I tried to go get something to eat at 8:30pm tonight while waiting for my laundry next door. Stood there at the register for 5 mins while the workers give me dirty looks. Seriously? Then a girl says yes?while looking confused as why im there. I asked if i can please get a half chicken. She says rudely no more chicken. Wtf ?!? They close at 10. No menus, tvs were off .You're a chicken place, and theres no chicken at 8:30? LoL jajaja its probably because im not hispanic because she had no problem taking a couples order right after me. Guess they had chicken then. Then i see a small mouse running across the rice and there were so many little bugs on the floor. Im kinda glad they refused me service nowEsta gente es tan ignorante y repugnantemente grosera. ¿Por qué estás aquí si no quieres trabajar? Rechacé mi servicio a las 8:30 pm porque no soy hispano. y tomar otro cliente después de mí. Cuando me iba vi un ratoncito caminando sobre el arroz y tantos bichos en el suelo. Este lugar es asqueroso y estoy llamando al departamento de salud

Dang! This place is the real deal! You know a Peruvian chicken place isn't messing around when there's a booth to send money back to loved ones in the motherland. The atmosphere is definitely on the divey side--it sort of resembles a cafeteria. The chicken is a good deal (16.50 for a whole chicken and two sides...which ended up being a bit too much for my husband and me) and it comes out QUICK and FRESH. The skin is so crispy and good. I haven't tried the other chicken place in Fairfax (the one near Trader Joe's, Wild Chicken) But my husband actually had it a week ago. He said this one was way better.They don't skimp on the sauce (I loved that green sauce!) and the plantains were good too. I wasn't crazy about the yucca fries--they were a little dry for my taste. I got the tamarind juice, which was good but very sweet, and my husband enjoyed their horchata.When we are in the mood for Peruvian chicken, this going to our go-to from now on!

Got the special #2 with rice and beans, yuca, fries, and plantains. Parking lot is pretty tight and overall area seems a little sketchy. The food itself was not impressive. Some of the styrofoam containers were soaked through and the food seemed very oily, except the chicken. The chicken was seasoned okay, but not the best. The yellow sauce was not very good either. Plantains were super oily. Overall below the line and unlikely to return.

Lomo saltado is so good! I was next doing some laundry and decided to grab a bite. Best decision

I've gone here dozens of times over the years because I liked the food, but they are always so rude and I'm just over it. It's like all the women there are so angry, I don't get it. The last time I went there, they ignored me standing there then told me they were out of chicken. I'm not sure if it was true or not. While I was waiting to be noticed, I saw the black mold on the three juice containers and that solidified my decision to stop going there. They need to deep clean that place and take some customer service training. There is a much better place right down the road that opened recently, Max's Chicken. Their chicken is better seasoned and crispier, they are polite and their restaurant is CLEAN. I'm done with Mary's.

Not the best peruvian chicken I've ever had. Just down the road is Wild Chicken and their chicken is better. This place doesn't seem to crisp the skin enough. I do like that you can choose the two sides that come with your chicken. I ordered fries and yucca. The yucca was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside! The fries were crispy, thick cut but nothing special. A quarter chicken and two HUGE sides for $6.00. The price is great.I like how they have more on their menu then just peruvian chicken and yucca. They had a lot of different soups and stews. I saw someone ordered the fried fish with rice and it looked amazing. Can.t wait to try the other stuff but not the chicken again.

This place is extraordinary . It is so much better than that other chicken place in Fairfax,VA plus it's a little cheaper to boot. Obviously, their crispy yuca and chicken is the main items to get. It's so flavorful plus that wonderful sauce is delicious and tender that's full of flavors! I always get the juicy chicken and YUCA ! Absolutely love this place, staff is so friendly , not so noisy and the atmosphere is quite nice.

I came here for some Peruvian chicken. Was sadly disappointed. Chicken was dry and the French fries were blah. I did see a variety of Salvadoran and Honduran food. So it might not be a terrible restaurant just terrible at Peruvian chicken. Will be back but not for the Chicken! And omg lol at the best fries in USA comment! That has to be a joke. In conclusion, enjoy anything but the chicken!

Loved the food the chicken was full of flavor would definitely go back a go back and recommend. The platanus were amazing and sweet and perfectly cooked.

my favorite place to get food, the service is fast and very nice, wonderful options to pick from in terms of food options
