After being sick for a week, I was looking forward to eating something other than soup and decided…read moreto visit Charcoal Chicken in Loehmann's Plaza. I hadn't eaten there in over five years, so I was hoping the food was still as good as I remembered. My visit was on a Friday evening, around 6:00 or 6:30 PM. The dining room was relatively quiet, with only two other customers present, and I was immediately greeted upon walking in. I asked the cashier about the new menu item, the "Lamb Chops." He described them as pan-fried, noting that an order includes two to three nice-sized chops and comes with two sides. I decided to order the lamb chops to go, selecting the arroz chaufa (fried rice) which was a $1 upcharge and plantains as my sides. I was extremely disappointed when I opened my order and found that I had been served lamb shoulder for $18 and not the lamb chops I expected (typically rib or loin chops). To add to my disappointment the quality of the Lamb was very poor; it was tough, contained an excessive amount of connective tissue and fat, and was ultimately inedible. I ended up having to throw the entire portion away. The arroz chaufa also had inconsistent quality. While the flavor was good, the texture varied significantly, with parts being mushy and overcooked, and others remaining hard and undercooked. The Plantains were cut too thick and were also undercooked. Given the cost and the expectation associated with "Lamb Chops," I was extremely unhappy with my meal. I believe the cut of meat served was misrepresented, falsely advertised and the quality was unacceptable. I certainly cannot recommend this item to others and regret not ordering the chicken, which I know your restaurant prepares well.

I've been going to M Chicken for over TWO YEARS now, and at this point I'm basically an unpaid…read moreambassador. I've picked up orders for coworkers, friends, and assorted non-believers, all in my ongoing mission to share my guilty pleasure with anyone willing to listen. Most recently, M Chicken catered my 3-year-old's birthday party because apparently my child has already developed excellent taste. His words? "Spicy chicken!" Now, the soy garlic chicken isn't really spicy-spicy, but it does have a little sneaky building heat from the red pepper. It's not going to set your soul on fire, but you may find yourself taking a couple extra sips of water like, "Okayyy, 안녕하세요 heat, I see you." The chicken itself? Crispy, juicy, flavorful, and dangerously easy to keep eating. The snow onion and soy garlic are my absolute go-to flavors. The snow onion sauce is creamy, savory, slightly sweet, and just makes the whole thing feel extra. 너무 맛있어요 -- so delicious! And please do not sleep on the coleslaw. It is probably my favorite side. Slightly pickled, crunchy, tangy, flavorful...basically the perfect cool little sidekick to all that fried chicken goodness. The rice is always on point too. Fluffy little clouds of rice perfection. No sad, sticky, forgotten rice over here. At the birthday party, we had 43 people, and not ONE person had anything bad to say about the chicken. Plenty went back for seconds, which is always the real review. People can lie with words, but they do not lie with a second plate. And somehow, even the fish is divine here. I keep telling myself I'm going to branch out and try more of the menu, but every time I walk in, the chicken starts whispering, "가지 마...come back to me." And apparently I have no self-control. 맛있어요, M Chicken. You win again. If you love crispy chicken, good sauces, and food that makes you immediately start planning your next visit, this place is absolutely worth checking out. Inside is clean, and cute. Service is fast. We ate so fast and so much I got no pics of the food!

I never write reviews…read more We came in, mind you it is not busy in here. We placed our order at 9 and then proceeded to have to wait over an hour for our food. Before the food even came, receipts came out and we were unpleasantly surprised with an auto gratuity of 15%-- fine, we'd already ordered and didnt wanna be AHs. After a bit over 30 mins of waiting, a member of our party went up to check on the status of our orders, and paid for themself thinking the food would be out soon. We were told that the food was being plated, which was definitely a blatant lie as the food didnt come out until over an hr had passed. No apologies or acknowledgment by the waitress when she came with our food. Then when we walked up to the counter to pay, proceeded to pretend as we didnt exist and pushed the task back and forth. Ah, and the food was MID. If one of us didnt pay already, we wouldve left. What a huge waste of time.

Me and my boyfriend came here when we arrived Good Friday evening for dinner. We drove all the way…read morefrom central Virginia, and were very hungry. The Chicken Spot was one of two restaurants available that wasnt egregiously expensive, had seafood, and were still open late. Our experience was terrible. I am a young disabled woman. I have a few condition including some hearing issues and some mobility impairments (I use a cane). We walked in and it didn't look too busy. There were 3 people sitting at tables and the bar was a little crowded. When we walked in we immediately noticed the tables were all hightops, except for one 2 seater by the door that looked more like a servers stand than a table. Wheelchair users or other people eith PoTs beware. There was no signage and no one around so we got some menus and sat at the short table. We waited around 20 minutes then set a timer for 5 minutes to see if anyone would Show. We ended up going around the block to another restaurant that was also extremely busy aersalcoholfed. After waiting around 25 minutes at the other restaurant we went back to chicken spot. The bar cleared up slightly, but the 3 tables were still there. This time the bartender was there. We asked her if we could sit at the short table and she said we could sit anywhere, just come to the bar to order. So again, wheelchair users be warned. The menu was very unclear. Apparently there was a build your own seafood boil that started at $8 for a half pound of crawfish. There were your pickings of corn, potatoes, or boiled eggs for $1.75 underneath which I thought were extras. When I placed my order she asked how many potatoes and corn I wanted, this confused me since 1. She was speaking very fast and kept saying different things 2. There was music blasting and people talking all around 3. I have never heard of a seafood boil were you get to choose the amount. After I paused for a couple of seconds confused trying to collect my thoughts to ask her to clarify she finally snapped at me and said "Its per individual piece thats build your own." I absolutely wasn't about to pay $2 per vegetable so I changed my order to a shrimp basket and she got very fed up and rude. I understand it was busy and she was probably stressed, but the way she treated me was very unnecessary. I wasn't rude to her in the slightest, just confused and trying to ask questions, yet she treated me like I was the biggest inconvenience in her life and a waste of her time. We ended up ordering two baskets which came out to $35. We got our ticket but didn't pay yet. She did offer us drinks or water, which we accepted the water. (I can't drink because I'm disabled and my boyfriend had to drive). I feel like the waters just sealed the deal that we "weren't worth her time". We probably waited close to half an hour, and about 10 minutes into that, one of the tables that was there before we left the first time had JUST gotten their 6 drinks and food. There was a couple who was also waiting beforehand and they went to the bar to ask, and I guess they didnt get a good answer because they also looked unhappy. There was another person who left without his food, and the waitress ran out to chase him down, and multiple food delivery people came in to pick up orders. At one point the line cook walked out the front door, and came back in 10 minutes later reeking of marijuana. The waitress was also constantly running back into the kitchen. We ended up leaving without recieving our food and got dinner at 7/11. For atmosphere there are playstations at the bar, loud music, and an instagrammable sunflower wall if you're into that. They do also have games like giant jenga and checkers (thats missing pieces) at some of the tables too. For service is you're not a doordasher or single man, and if you're not ordering alcohol don't bother. For food, we unfortunately didn't even get to try it. But for the menu, pricing, and wait, it doesn't seem worth it at all. The waitress's attitude and treatment were awful, but the problems here definitely seem like they are mostly on management. The poor setup, the understaffing, the unclear menu, etc. My take is if food delivery is interfering with the quality of your in-house customers' experience you need to hire more staff or cut down on the delivery. They really need another line cook or two, and a food/drink runner at minimum. That bartender better be making more than minimum wage because she was doing the jobs of at least 2 different people. Overall, not disabled friendly, and poorly run. Maybe its better in the day, avoid at night unless you like drinking.

We went to El Pico de Oro with great hope because we love Peruvian food, and the reviews are great…read more The first thing we noticed was that they don't have ceviche on the menu, which probably should have been our first hint that this wasn't going to be the traditional Peruvian experience we were expecting. However, we decided to stay and order lomo saltado, one with white rice, the other with fried rice. To be fair, the food wasn't bad. The flavors were fine, but to us, it just didn't taste like authentic Peruvian food. If you're looking for a quick, casual meal and aren't expecting a traditional Peruvian dining experience, this place may work for you. The place is setup more as a fast food place than a restaurant. You order and pay then sit down. From the short time we were there it looks like they do mostly takeout service rather than dine in and you'll feel it. Unfortunately, based on our experience, this wouldn't be a place we'd return to when looking for Peruvian food.

The restaurant was clean, well-lit, and had plenty of available seating. I ordered the quarter chicken with Peruvian fried rice and sweet plantains. Everything was exceptional; the rice and plantains were cooked perfectly, and while I did think the chicken was slightly salty, it was still very tasty. I also enjoyed the green sauce provided, though the food was flavorful enough on its own. My only minor suggestion is for the staff to ask guests whether they prefer white or dark meat when ordering. Aside from that, the meal was excellent. If you are looking for authentic, great-tasting Peruvian chicken, I highly recommend stopping by El Pico de Oro.

All the food was delicious and the spiciness was too spicy for my wife but was great for me ;P The fries were SUPER CRISPY which was so great. The chicken sandwich was so crispy, the sauce on it really went well. I'm looking forward to trying different things next time! The staff was also incredibly nice.

Our meal box came with free FF x Jollibee stickers and they were so adorable! The design on the cups was super cute too. I usually do online pick up orders, which go smoothly. However, the day I went to sit down was super busy. I think it was the Sunday post-church rush. We waited a little over 30 minutes.

You select the cup of shake or smoothie from the freezer, place it in the machine, select your level of thickness, then the machine turns it into the drink. I chose the Oreo flavor and it was very tasty. Once we ordered our chicken from the kiosk, we paid for our meals and chatted with the staff about Royal Farms. She shared with us the perks of signing up for the Royal Farms Rewards Card and how it helps you save on gas, among other benefits. We then grabbed our chicken to go and I must say, it was much better this time than the last time! The chicken was very fresh, crispy and flavorful.
