    I love Horchata, Charcoal chicken make Horchata. Yucca frites, fresh cooked. I eat half before I get home. Black beans are well seasoned. Charcoal chicken is nicely marinated. Always a friendly greeting when you enter by staff and the open Charcoal rotisserie in front of your face. I love the authentic drinks and recipes there's guys replicate. I truly cood eat here everyday. Super simple table chairs eating area. No fuss, comfortable for families singles and just solo. I usually just to take out.

    All those birds being cooked only to be consumed by customers

    Sophia and I traveled here over the weekend for lunch. Years ago, we dined at their flagship location in Virginia Beach where the food was really good. That was the plan until I remembered they opened up a second spot here over 2 years ago. Would the long trek result in good vibes? When we walked in, every table was taken. This one is smaller to the Virginia Beach local and is more designed for takeout. But luckily, it was a team of people eating lunch so they were all finishing up. And the staff made sure to clean each table. Huge plus in my book. Just like in Va Beach, you have to go to the counter to order. You actually get a very good view of rotisserie chicken being cooked. Now that would make anybody hungry. I chose the 1/2 chicken meal with two sides (Yucca fries and french fries) with white meat added for an extra charge. This meal was delicious. The chicken was cooked through and through not skimping on the seasoning. And both sides were plenty. They also gave out sauces which you could dip either the chicken or side in. As you guessed, I got full after eating one piece and saved the rest for dinner still tasting the same. Delicious Peruvian chicken....can't go wrong at all. This meal truly delivered for yours truly. We'll be back here definitely :)

    1/2 chicken, plantains, rice with beans

    Generous portions and delicious food! My daughter and I split the 1/2 chicken along with plantains and beans with rice for $15. The portion was HUGE. We had plenty of leftovers for a meal the next day. The plantains were cooked perfectly. You definitely want to get extra green and yellow sauces. The green sauce is a spicy cilantro sauce. The yellow sauce isn't spicy. The watermelon soda was also very refreshing for summer! There are some seats inside, but the restaurant definitely does more takeout orders.

    The first visit was a fluke or something. The second visit was a complete 180. Chaotic nightmare. We ordered 3 different meals. Two came out fine. Mine was a mistake after mistake. For some reason, they could not get my side correct! Twice they gave me someone else's order. I wound up with three meals and 4 different sides because they kept messing it up. The line was out the door and they were not organized enough to keep up. It wasn't just my order that was wrong. Several customers waited over 30 minutes for their food. They are quick to take your money but slow to give you food (if they even give it to your right). I was deeply disappointed. I would give them a second chance but then I saw in the window how their food is prepared. Nope. I will not support animal cruelty.

    Whole wings

    The food is delicious! I've had the Peruvian chicken, whole wings, and the chicken bowl. They give you great portions. The rice and beans are great. The plantains remind me of a Caribbean island. Everything tastes amazing. The flavors meld together nicely. The service is good. They even have tables and window seating. Some items are made to order, but they get you your order as soon as they can. It's a great place to grab dinner or lunch. Check it out!

    The food was good .the garlic parmeasan wings were so good .chicken quesadilla was so fresh and I put lettuce corn and everything on side .I will be back for chicken snd fried rice .The service was good .and polite .It wasn't too loud in there and it got busy but line moves fast .

    My bowl
    Maria C.

    For it to be my first time trying this new spot, I'm a fan! My husbae decided to try it out and I opted to try something simple. A chicken bowl. Not sure how it comes but I had chicken rice cheese onions and added lettuce to it. I thought I needed some type of sauce but I didn't ... very tasty. My husbae mentioned his meal was good too. We will definitely try more of the menu soon. At this point, I recommend you give this place a try. I'd suggest try the chicken first since that's the name of the restaurant then move on to other items. Parking on a good day it can be super busy since it's located among a strip mall of other popular businesses such as: Starbucks Navy Federal a nailshop and a pizza shop to mention a few. Check them out if you're in the area Have fun and enjoy life:)

    I enjoyed having lunch at Charcoal Chicken. Walked in, instantly greeted by friendly staff. The person taking our order was very enthusiastic about the food. We got the quartered chicken with sides . The chicken was delicious and juicy. My favorite side was the plantains . They had a variety of drinks, cool desserts like tres leches and limoncello cake, and more. Place was clean and organized. They were really great about giving extra sauces. Parking was ample, there are lots of stores and places to eat next door. I think this is a cool concept, whole , quartered rotisserie chicken on the go, and actually haven't had Peruvian style to go chicken since moving here to the 757. These are very popular where I'm from in Northern Virginia. So glad I found this place !

    1/4 Chicken with 2 Side Orders
    Tee B.

    Service: 2/5, staff seemed friendly when we first entered the building but soon after became very pushy for us to order. Keep in mind we're not from the area and hadn't had time to review the menu. In the cashier's haste he didn't hear me say I wanted white meat chicken but agreed to correct his error with no issue (there is an up charge for white meat). Food: 3.5/5, chicken was really good as it was seasoned well and not dry. I opted for the veggies which were heavy on zucchini which I like but not that much. The fried rice was very tasty to include chicken pieces among the egg and veggies. The yellow and green sauces were good (better than Chicken Fiesta in my opinion). Not pictured are the garlic pepper wingettes which my daughter stated were very good. My only complaint with the combo they offered was you could not swap out the fries (which my sister in love stated weren't that great) tho all the small sides are priced the same. Ambiance: super casual dining with the option to eat in or carry out, clean.

    The chicken is juicy and it's chargrilled but not burnt. All the sides are delicious and the family deal is enough to feed a family of 5.

I noted all the content of the BC that was listed on the menu and it contained items that I liked. When my food was served it looked delicious and when I took my first cut of the burrito and tasted it, it was delicious. I kept going for a few more bites, and I noted that all the content of the burrito was not there. When I saw the server I let him know that some of the content was missing. The server stated that all the content was inside and he stood there for a few seconds looking at me and I was looking at him and I said OK and I took a couple more bites and there were still missing content, so I cut the "Burrito California in half open it up and call him back to the table and showed him that all the contents were not there: the chorizo sausage and pico de gallo were missing. There was no offer to make a correction, the server just took the plate and left. Came back with a ticket of 3.50 for my drink. The ambience is very fitting for a Mexican restaurant. This was not my first visit matter fact it was one of my favorite places to go when I had a taste for Mexican food and we've had a birthday dinner there for my son-in-law before and we enjoyed our meal and the service at that time.

    Wow what a great Mexican spot. We've been meaning to try this place since it changed and it didn't…read moredisappoint. We've went late on a weeknight and there was plenty of sitting space. We were immediately greeted and offered seats. Chips and salsa followed within a few seconds of sitting and our waiter came for drink orders a few seconds after the snack delivery. Their chips are hot and super thin. Which I love. The salsa is more flavorful, it doesn't taste like just canned tomatoes with a few stands of onion and cilantro. The menu is extensive with lots of classic options and some unique options. We weren't hungry enough for any appetizers but next time we come maybe with a larger group we'll try some. We ordered the chicken fajitas, pollo fundido and Mexican flautas. Food was delivered hot in 10 mins and was visually pleasing. I couldn't wait to start eating . Everything was super tasty too. In the past I've experienced where the fillings in burritos/tacos/taquitos especially the meats are left unseasoned. This was not the case at Guads. The fillings were well seasoned and could be eaten on their own. Fajitas were sizzling and meat was evenly and consistently sized. Very yummy. We are rice lovers so that's an important aspect of the meal. Rice was perfect. Not parboiled and a nice light tomato flavor. Refried beans were puréed smooth which is ok but not my favorite. Other than that everything was fantastic. We'll be back again.

    The restaurant is aesthetically pleasing but the food was mediocre. I love birria tacos and this is…read morethe only place they don't put cheese in them so it was falling apart during eating and dipping in consommé. The consommé was not great either.

    I saw the reviews and pictures on yelp and had to give it a try! If I'm ever back in the area…read moreI'll definitely be trying more!!! I got the tacos governador, they're shrimp tacos with grilled onions, bell peppers, and cheese. They were amazing. The shrimp was so fresh, plump, and perfectly grilled. The onions and peppers still had a little crunch to them, so all the textures worked beautifully together. I took my food to go and rated a 5/5, but I'm sure it would have been even better if I ate it immediately there if that's even possible. It also came with this special sauce, but it didn't really need it. They were amazing as is. I did like dipping my chips in the sauce. I also loved the chips and salsa. They're the thicker cut chips and can hold a lot. The salsa was fresh and no heat to it, but you could taste the peppers. The employees were very nice and helped me because I came in thinking I knew exactly what I wanted lol but completely forgot the name. It seems like a local restaurant because the employees were very friendly with all the customers there, and seemed like they knew everyone. If I have time before I leave, I'll definitely come back! Thank you for a great dinner and first proper meal in Virginia!

So, Sophia and I ate lunch over the weekend to see if the word of mouth held up. Let's find out, shall we? We were promptly seated when we walked inside. There wasn't a huge amount of people seated for lunch which was just fine with us. The restaurant isn't that big with a bad set up in the front and a dining area with tables. Mexican music was blasting through the system and TVs were showing sports and TV shows. And the staff was busy serving customers. All in all, a very good vibe. After a few minutes looking over the menu, the both of us were ready to order. We both ordered 4 tacos each (Sophia ordered 2 chorizo and 2 carne asada). I selected a birria, lengua, chorizo and carne asada. Everything was delicious. All the proteins were well-cooked and the veggies and available sauces helped with each bite. No real complaints from any of us. A wonderful lunch here. It's pretty cool when you find a mew place which will be on repeat. Till next time :)
