Great chicken. Green sauce is amazing! This place is an astoria staple, this is a must try. read more

So I wanted to try a new Peruvian place and I've passed by this place plenty of times. The staff seemed friendly enough but I can see why people say to put an order in advance cuz they take their time. I ordered only one whole chicken and they are all on the spit ready to be cut but they still took 10 min to give me my order even though they weren't actively making other platters for other customers. Chicken was cut into quarters and I took it to go. It was only when I got home that I realized they are so cheap with the green sauce. I bought a WHOLE chicken and they gave me one small sauce cup. . The chicken was pretty moist except for the breast meat and flavorful but the one sauce cup for a whole chicken is really screaming cheapness. I ended up making my own green sauce cuz theirs is pretty weak and watered down. So chicken is good but sauce is lacking flavor and not enough for the amount that was purchased. read more

super interesting spot ! chinese and cuban mhmmmm their roasted chicken is BOMB ! great price too . comes with salad and a side of your choose ( their rice and beans are bomb ) love their green sauce read more

If you ever walked by this place and wondered what it is, just stop by when you're hungry and check it out! I was surprised into finding this is a Peruvian Chinese Hybrid takeout - who woulda thought!! I like that their menu is simple and focuses on just a few main items of each cuisine vs having everything. It allows them to perfect their items and make it quick, since there seems to be a mini line to order / takeout. I had the ribs and chicken combo. The chicken was standard Peruvian deliciousness. I never liked Chinese ribs that much but having theirs with the green sauce is a game changer - You get very big pieces. I love their pork fried rice because it's no frills simple and can probably eat an entire quart on my own. As for the fries, they have my favorite cut - Single Fried thick, similar to Wendy's. Note this place is cash only. read more

I was recommended this place by a friend because I really wanted some good Chinese Peruvian food. I got a quart of the house special fried rice and a whole chicken plus the fried yuca. I was very disappointed with the rice to be honest with the little bit of meat etc they put and to top it off it was on the top and nothing in between so the first person who served themselves got all the meat etc and rest was just rice . The chicken was a bit salty and the yuca fries could have been crisper. I spent alot of money and don't think I will be going back. read more

Best lomo saltado i have ever had. Beef not overcooked like most other places. Had one piece of tomato which is generally a lot less than what others put in. Love it. Will definitely go back. read more

Pollo saltado all day! The chicken is juicy and the sauce might be out of this world. They also have a really good half chicken plate that you can get with pork fried rice and plantains. It's a little pricey, but the quantity of food is always top tier. Cash only fyi. I recommend calling in since they typically take like 20 minutes to have your food ready. But you won't be disappointed! read more

Caravan Chicken - pollo saltado! - Latin American Near Me - Astoria, New York

Great Food , You have to try for yourself, they are are you, second to none great place to eat ribs are tasteful rice is good I go to often read more

The food is 10/10, but the restaurant is definitely no frills. The fried rice is unbeatable though.

Caravan Chicken is a Peruvian chicken joint in Astoria. If you've been to Peking BBQ in Woodside, it is similar, except that the skin isn't sticky and it is seems slightly healthier (if you can call it that) with less drippings and grease. There are tables but most people order out. It gets quite busy. The chicken was good, it is well seasoned with a slightly crispy skin. The breast is a little dry and tasteless as with most chicken, but nothing the delicious green sauce can't solve. They only give a small amount of green sauce though. If you want more, it costs extra. I prefer Peking BBQ's version over this one. read more

Caravan Chicken - Half chicken, pork fried rice, salad - Latin American Near Me - Astoria, New York

The juiciest most flavorful best rotisserie chicken around! Combined with the Chicken Fried Rice with hot sauce and then a Inca Cola to wash it all down, this place has been a go-to since childhood for me and my family! A true hidden gem in Queens! A hole in the wall place to get great Peruvian food. Don't be fooled when you walk in. The owner is of Peruvian/Chinese descent and has been serving great food for years. Chicken is TRULY the best in town and the ribs are large, no-nonsense and succulent. This place DOES NOT deliver so I took away a star. The prices aren't too high but the menu and prices on-line are WAY WRONG! Definitely eat here for a tasty combo of spanish and chinese but, better than the average Chino-cubano joint. It's the same owner as casa del pollo in Jackson heights, therefore that's why it's so good!!!! Theres no comparisons in the neighborhood. Good food & Great services read more

One of the best if not the best in Queens.. I used to be a fan of Pio Pio until they screw me up on my to go order by giving me all breast meat when I order a whole chicken. Caravan serves a young chicken, much juicier too... im forever a fan now, keto friendly too it seems read more

my personal humble opinion is: this is the BEST chicken ever in ALL NYC.. and their green sauce. and chicha morada juice, arroz chaufa special, yuquitas, sweet plantain, etc, etc .uhmmm all they do so good n done right w passion.. I them and they are a team doing it for long time.. Great job u guys keep it up.. viva Peru y los chinos peruanos.. read more

Honestly the best rotisserie chicken in all of Astoria ! It's definitely a take out spot and I believe it's cash only... but ! It is super delicious. The fried rice is amazing as well and the GREEN SAUCE! A little spicy and tangy... goes good on all the food. I always order extra sauce! read more

The best chicken and rice in town. I don't know how they do it but the chicken is cooked to perfection- juicy and moist. The meat just falls off the bone. I never eat the skin of the chicken but caravan chicken, I do! My go to order is always a whole chicken, pork fried rice and plantains. They close for an entire month in summer, typically in July. Well deserved! read more

A delicious chinese Peruvian spot that is known for their rotisserie chicken. Just delicious and filling.

A very weird set up. The food is tasty and delicious as others have reviewed it to be. There's no table service yet there are tables and a pseudo waiter. The drink choice is lacking diversity as I'm diabetic and prefer diet soda. Definitely better as a take out joint over a sit down restaurant read more

My husband and I love caravan chicken! It's always busy but the food is worth the wait. We wish they deliver in the future!

I can honestly say this is a place I used to go to. I enjoy Peruvian spots a bunch and enjoy local institutions. This place has let me down on a few occasions now. Delivery I've gotten old food a couple times, which has made me weary. This time I go in and order for take out, nothing crazy just a full chicken. I order, pay and wait. I see people come in and pick their stuff up, no biggie but am curious why with a simple order I am waiting. After a half hour I ask what am I waiting for, and instead of an explanation the one cook picks the last chicken sitting in tray under the head lamps. Since I've been waiting you'd figure I might get one fresh off the rack, which would have been fine. Instead I'm sitting there like an asshole with no explanation and and a tray of chicken that they'd probably throw out instead. Immediately asked for a refund at this point. Never again. read more

Great value for a quick lunch spot. Rotisserie chicken platter is the way to go. You can ask for white or dark meat for a few cents extra. Consistent, hearty, and inexpensive meal. read more

Delicious chicken! Love that you can pay via card now. Still waiting for them to have delivery service.

I had great expectations for the ribs, went first time today , no bbq sauce, smelled meaty, ribs are too big , the heat was tough and chewy, $17 bucks for 3 ribs and greasy wet rice , nah I'll pass read more

Caravan Chicken - Latin American Near Me - Astoria, New York

When I moved back to New York, I was expecting an abundance of really good Peruvian chicken joints. Though there's no shortage of options, especially in Kew Gardens where there seems to be a Tu Casa on every block, there wasn't a single option that made me crave it or drive 30 minutes out of my way like my all time favorite Peruvian chicken joint Super Chicken in Falls Church, VA...until I finally tried Caravan Chicken. I'm glad I don't have to make a pilgrimage down to Virginia to get quality Peruvian chicken and the 20 minute drive to Astoria is well worth it. Caravan is definitely more of a carry out joint, but there are some tables towards the back where you can eat after you place your order at the counter. The chicken here is a solid A: crispy, juicy, good to the last bite, and easily my favorite among the 20 or so Peruvian rotisserie chicken places I've tried in NYC. As good as the chicken is, the thing I love the most on the menu is the fried rice. Whatever option you choose, you will not be disappointed! My personal favorite is the house special fried rice with a little bit of everything (beef, shrimp, roast pork). Paired with the chicken and the house green sauce...this is as good as it gets. In addition to the rice, I love their yucca and their pollo soltado is so good that I might just skip the rotisserie chicken and get that instead (who am I kidding, I'd probably get both). Wash it all down with an Inka Cola or a passion fruit juice and you'll be on Cloud 9! Highly recommended! read more

I stopped here on a Saturday evening after a walking tour I completed in Queens. I was starving and was looking for some quick dinner before heading home. I checked my bookmarks on Yelp and saw "Caravan chicken." When I walked in it was a little line which I enjoy seeing sometimes because that means the food is usually good. They had a decent sit down area in the back. I ordered the half chicken and rice and beans to go. The prices seemed very reasonable. The chicken was juicy and very tasty, the lick your fingers kind of good. The rice and beans were just okay and seemed a bit dry. I also had their soda which was a cherry flavor that was very good. When I'm in the area I will definitely check out this spot again. read more

This is one of the BEST rotisserie chicken in Queens. I first tried them 12 years ago; I lived 4 blocks away from them. I moved away 9 years ago and I still make the trek to Astoria to pick up their chicken. 12 years and it is the same juicy, succulent, moist and mouth watering chicken and green sauce every single time. read more

The best rotisserie chicken I've ever had, the pork friend rice was the icing on the cake. Amazing.

Haven't had much, but I would agree that it's a great intro to Peruvian food. It's a standard in my takeout rotation.

Very glad that Chinese Latin/South American fusion is accessible in walking distance. Portions are sizable, the chicken fell off the bone, the green sauce slaps and the pork fried rice made me want to pass out. First time I walked in was a year after moving into the area and I needed something to eat before heading off to work. Had a long night before, so to my pleasant surprise there was a good amount of food that hit the right notes in front of me. The lo mein is a bit salty though, but a small price to pay for exploring a menu that would induce the Itis in anyone, and evoke my memories of dim sum and Chinese food in the Caribbean. read more

Note: CASH ONLY (watched a few people try to order but realize they were cash-less) The chicken was tender and flavorful and the ribs were also really good! The pork fried rice was a bit on the dry side. Definitely a good value meal; I will be back! Tips: most tables are for 2 with a few tables for 4. A lot of people order to go. read more

Although they raised their prices recently the food here is pretty awesome, esp. their Aguidito soup and chicken. The beef with broccoli was also excellent, and their french fries are surprisingly really good. Also the Peruvian green sauce is very, very good. The people here work long hours and never seem to get much time off so always best to tip them, if you can! read more
