I have to say I have eaten here 5 times now. So this is as fair as a review as I am going to give folks! Customer Service: Is fine, nothing over the top. Never rude. Price: Very affordable Food: The taste is not the issue, while not being the best I ever tasted, its o.k. First time I had ordered the Rotisserie and while I found the chicken on the smaller side, I noticed the skin was missing on some of the pieces. To my surprise they put it on the spit then they stick it on the grill to cook more ( this is not what I observed, but what was explained to me by the woman there). They replaced it no problems. I have had their Pupusas which I ate next several times. This last time was pretty much the end for me. I ordered a chicken tamal. I had a bite and a sharp item was in the meat. Wow! I wasn't sure what it was but white in color. I chewed a lil more and another piece. I could only imagine it was bone. Here I go again calling in the bones in my tamal. The woman on the other end did not seem phased that I found it. She said something as to... yes, they put it in or cooked in? I never have experienced that ever! In any place that sells chicken tamals. Either way, I will not be going back. My 411 on this place

this place kicks ass, i stumbled onto it taking pictures one day. note that it's no-frills (read: cramped, could use some new lighting) and not meant to be some place of indescribable beauty. the papusas are great, the beans are bangin', platanos are on point, the yucca is flawless. everything is fresh. just good food.

My favorite place to get pupusas and cortidos. Its a pretty long drive for me, but is right near where my car mechanic works. I make a point of stopping by every time my car needs to get repairs or an oil change. Delicious stuff.

Cozy little place out of the way, but everything is made fresh and it is outstanding all around!

I recently discovered this place on accident and boy, am I happy that I found this small place because it was surprisingly good! In the moco wasteland it is hard to get good food due to bigger corporate owned restaurants having more funds. The prices at this place are very compareable to a lot of the chicken places I have been to, as a matter of fact they were a couple bucks cheaper then most places and the food I got was so fresh and delicious. The place is a bit small but nevertheless, clean and cozy.

So I drive by this place on the way to and from work and have always wondered about it. I saw the old restaurant close down and have wondered if it's because of the location. It's seriously 25 feet from the train tracks on an industrial back road. It's open for breakfast/lunch/dinner and I have never seen it really busy. So I decided to stop by today and check it out. I ordered a mixed pupusa and beef taco. I was surprised when the beef taco was actually more like a steak taco, so it was a good surprise. The mixed pupusa was pretty good. They also have a cheese/zucchini pupusa that I'm really interested in trying for next time. From my 2 choices, I'd say the food is pretty good! I'll have to try the charcoal chicken next time and their breakfast menu is pretty inexpensive also. They had the standard choices like eggs, sausage, bacon but they also have a Salvadorean breakfast option that has eggs, sausage, fried plantains and beans. So the food's great, but they're definitely still working out the kinks. They have menus on the walls and a picture menu behind the counter but no prices. The only way to find out was to ask or look at the carry out menu. I didn't get out of there for almost 20 minutes either because the credit card machine wasn't working right. I had to wait for someone else's credit card to go through and then wait for mine. Made me a little nervous, but I don't think anything shady was going on. Overall, I hope they work these things out because the food is good and inexpensive.

food is the best peruvian around next to la limena in the area. service is slow because they cook the food right so obviously its going to take longer but everything is authentic. do not hesitate!! my favorite dish is "bistec a la pobre"

Avoid like the plague. It's filthy. Slow, unfriendly service, mediocre pollo a la brasa, and they simply could not get my order right. Overcharged me for it, and laughed when I brought it to counter guy's attention. The only reason we tried it was because we got a coupon in the mail when they opened. Never again!

I was driving by Pollo a la Vista, and noticed a lot of contractor trucks in the parking lot. That's always a good sign, so I stopped. They have a menu board with photos but no prices. I ordered a quarter chicken, two sides and a beverage, and my total came to $8.10. The chicken was perfectly cooked: crispy skin and very moist inside. The beans were fantastic. (That's saying something since my family loves beans.) The steak cut fries were--well--steak cut fries: nothing special. Everything was beautifully presented, and the service was fast and courteous. The restaurant was very clean. I visited the restroom, and that was clean, too. I accidentally flipped the entire cup of mayonnaise-based dipping sauce into my crotch. The server didn't laugh, and she quickly brought me a huge stack of napkins.

When my husband suggested that we celebrate Tolkien's birthday tonight by eating out (with much whining and prompting from me), I was excited. When he mentioned a Peruvian charcoal chicken place - a mere 2 miles from us, well, I nearly ran over the kids crossing the street to get to this place! Set behind the railroads, next to the charming little community, yet still on the wrong side of the tracks, of Washington Grove, this little stand alone building looks completely out of place, yet so appropriate. Inside, lit by unforgiving florescent lights, and the glow of Telemundo from the corner flat screen, the restaurant had plenty of seating, and was very clean and aroma-free. The aroma-free part should have been our first clue that something is amiss. We promptly order a chicken, 2 chicken tamales, 2 mixed papusas, and an order of yucca. We were promptly told that the grill is on the fritz, so no grilled chicken. Shocked and saddened, we order the steak lomido. Then we were promptly told that they have no more chicken tamales. I'm about to cry at this point, but my husband, wise that he is, asked if they had plain corn tamales, which they fortunately did. I was a little annoyed that the cashier lady didn't offer up the corn tamales as an option, but I'm so demoralized by the lack of delicious Peruvian grilled chicken that I'm surprised I didn't throw myself onto the train tracks. The yucca were DELICIOUS! Most definitely the best yucca I've had. Golden, flaky, hot, and crisp, each bit of yucca made me yearn for more. The mustard-mayo sauce that came with it - eh, not so much. But then, I'm one of those terrible people that put ketchup on their yucca. Also amazingly delicious were the papusas. They were big, and thick, and surprisingly non-greasy! The filling was moist and well seasoned, and everything was even and proportional. The red salsa sauce that was served with it was disappointingly wet and runny, without any flavor (I ended up using tabasco), and the small pinch of the pickled cabbage was not sour enough. No matter, the papusa was delicious enough to make up for these shortcomings. The tamales were fried - which was surprising to me. Hot, and sweet, and full of moist corn flavor, I definitely understand where they are coming from, however a deep fried tamale? I just don't know. I really just don't know. The steak lomido was also very tasty, with the two over medium eggs a perfect touch. The fried plantains, although prepared well, just wasn't my thing (I don't like cooked fruit), but the salad that was served with it, needed dressing or something. The rice on the side was very well seasoned and tasty, but hard, as if they scraped it from the bottom of the rice-cooker. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not. If it is, then it's brilliantly yummy. If it wasn't, then gosh darn it, I need to remove a star! Definitely plan on coming back in a few weeks to try to chicken. It's like going to a steak house. Sure the baked potato may be tasty, and heck, they can even make a good chocolate cake, but really, no one goes to a steakhouse for potatoes or cake. They are there for the steak. I'm here for the chicken, dammit. Hopefully, I'll be able to add a star or two to this review the next time I go...

Good food. The Tres Leches Cake is savory but it took them around 30 mins to make 1 cheese pupusa. And the service was extremely poor as the cashier women were drinking beer while serving me.
