"I love the grilled chicken 1/2 Pollo Al Carbon and the arroz chaufa. I was just a little down for the soda. The photo shows a bottle, I received a can. It's all good. I assume the price justifies the size. I give it 5 stars because their food is really good, I ordered a few times from them and have never been disappointed. "
"The restaurant took over 2 hours to prepare our order. Multiple drivers arrived at the restaurant and left due to the order not being ready yet. The Lomo Saltado had good flavor but the steak was tough and the rice was dry and slightly hard- I'm assuming it was day old rice."

"French fries were soggy from steam build inside the styrofoam with the chicken next to them. Literally some of them were wet.

Lots of hot sauces but I'm not into that."
