    I took my mom to Chirp for Mother's Day lunch. Based on the website photos I was expecting a proper sit down restaurant with table service. That is not what Chirp is. They have seats. But you order at the front, pick up your own food, box it yourself when you are done, and discard your own trash. I was the server today. That should be noted upfront because the website does not exactly make that clear. That said, the food was good. I got a stir fry dish with beef, fries, tomatoes and platanos. Mama bear got a Spanish chaufa which is basically the Peruvian version of fried rice. She seemed to enjoy it. I also got a side of squash soup which was pretty good. We washed it all down with Jarritos, the Mexican soda. Solid choice. Now the restroom situation. Chirp does not have a public restroom. My mom was bothered by that and I could see her starting to make it a thing. I had to nip that in the bud. I get it, I understand, but that is not the hill I die on. No restroom, no worries. It is what it is. The cashier was nice. The food got me full quick. I brought some home for wifey since she is a fan of Spanish food too. Overall Chirp is fine for what it is. It is more of a quick meal and delivery spot than a dinner service restaurant. If you go in knowing that you will probably enjoy it. If you go in expecting a proper sit down experience like I did, you might be caught off guard. Now you know.

    Great taste and value Peruvian spot. Got a 1/4 chicken with rice, maduros, and spicy sauce for under $15 which is unheard of these days. The chicken was delicious and perfectly cooked, maduros hit the spot, and the spicy sauce had a nice flavor to it. Will definitely be coming back here for lunch!

    Great little restaurant near MSG. Great food, full of flavor. Service was true hospitality with a smile.

    This was my first time here. I ordered the 1/2 chicken combo with 2 sides. For my sides I had white rice and beans. 1/2 chicken was a lot of food for a person. I probably could've gotten away with the 1/4 chicken. The food was ready quickly and had so much flavor!!! And for the amount of food you get the price is fair. They also sell Inca Kola here which is pretty cool. I'll come back here!!!

    A pleasant surprise on a quiet Thursday, pre-holiday weekend. I was in the mood for something that wasn't a giant fast food chain (which is 90% of this area), and I'd noticed this little guy an avenue block away or so from my office. It's just far enough away from the chaos of MSG/Penn Station where it's not overloaded with tourists staring slack-jawed at the taxis and skyscrapers, and honestly probably a little too edgy for them anyway. Big selling point for me. I wandered in here around 1pm yesterday. Since it was the day before the 4th of July, it was pretty quiet - I'm sure most of their demo is the almighty office worker, many of whom were already presumably chilling out at the shore with their PBRs. A few people made comments within earshot that it was much less chaotic than usual, and given that there's a written disclaimer by the counter that customers should expect a 20-minute wait for the rice bowls during rush hour, I'm 100% planning to order ahead the next time I'm hankering for some Peruvian food. But on this particularly day I got lucky. There's probably about five or six tables in there, only one or two of which was occupied. Cute spot; looks pretty spiffy and given that they don't have a ton of space to play around with, it doesn't feel claustrophobic. Again, it WAS an abnormally quiet work day in the city. Maybe it feels exactly like Penn Station on a normal weekday. There were honestly a lot of options that looked intriguing. I'm not a huge rotisserie chicken person (I find bones distracting unless it's something more straight-forward like a turkey leg or ribs where you're eating off the bone versus around it, if that makes sense), which seems to be their big seller. I went with the chicken rice bowl, and opted for the accompanying Peruvian fried rice, featuring eggs and scallions. Really tasty, filling stuff - something more for the end of the week than the beginning. The inclusion of the eggs reminded me of a Thai dish, and there was definitely some spice to the proceedings, which I tend to measure in nose blows (two in this case). The chicken was flavorful and tender, and I'm assuming one of the big attributes of the rotisserie section as well. Solid portion; the only issue I had was a personal palate one - I'm not crazy about crunchy onions/scallions on a texture basis, though they're upfront about its inclusion. The women behind the counter were decently busy - they seemed to have a lot of to-go orders as well as the in-person customers like myself - but were personable and accommodating. I was expecting to have to wait a while just by virtue of the time of day, but I had my rice bowl within about three or four minutes, which was awesome. Wasn't feeling quite frisky enough to venture into the fried sides territory but I wouldn't be opposed to trying the tostadas or empanadas on a future visit. Absolutely adding this place to the midday rotation. Hopefully its more subtle location (I mean, as subtle as you're going to get on 34th and 9th) keeps the hordes at bay and limits the wait times going forward.

    Wow, that is some tasty Peruvian chicken right there! My coworker was raving about Chirp and urged me to try their signature "Chirp chicken sandwich" (I usually go for bowls but he loved the bread). He warned it would be a lot of food and it was indeed a monster! The addition of sweet plantain gives it a unique and crave-worthy taste profile. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and there's a generous pile of it - no wonder they give you a knife & fork, as you will need them! The pork confit sandwich looks yummy and hearty as well and I can't wait to try it. I have also had their rice bowls (Peruvian fried rice), the creamy chicken (ají de gallina), and the rotisserie chicken combo - all absolutely excellent! The brown rice is unbelievably good; and the tostones are thin, crispy yet chewy, and gently seasoned, possibly the best I've had. Be sure to ask for their sauces too - they come in spicy, mild, and garlic. I always do the "red & green."

    yummy

    The food was good asf, not only do you get a piece of authentic Peruvian food, and they have variety of sodas to choose from. Overall food and service was good

    Food: Portions are huuuuge! Get the 1/2 chicken platter if youre really really hungry or else its a LOT for 17 bucks. Chicken is cooked perfectly, the sauce is amazing, yuca fries were great and same with the beans. Service: people taking orders were nice and friendly. It did take a bit long to get the food ready but they had a sign saying theres long wait times during rush hour and theyre super busy! Ambiance: feels very comfortable in there. Can get loud, but ample seating for lunch time and is a comfy atmosphere. Highly recommend. You'll get lots of food and its tasty.

We tried The Don and PAPAYA EN LA PLAYA. The Don is on the sweet side and the papaya en la playa is on the less sweet side but still that fruity taste. For the starters we did the ceviche and the blue crab tostada. Both 10/10. The tostada is a tad on the lemony side For the main dish we had the carne Asada and catch of the day. The steak was perfect great flavor but the salt added on at the top was a bit too much. The catch of the day was branzino it was really good the skin had a nice crunch to it the coconut sauce was good but more was needed. The fish comes by its self so ordered a side of rice and pink beans. Most of there dishes don't come with and side and to spend $42-$50 on a plate I should at least get some kind of side.

She was very sweet, attentive and kept the wheels running on this thing. Brahim also made the experience super elegant with the presentation and concoction of the drinks.

I noticed the menu was slightly different from a while ago. The shrimp with the tostones was amazing. The flavor of the juice was out of this world and paired perfectly together. The ambiance is also 'chic' and cute so very nice for dates, a night out with the girls, celebrating an event or birthday of course.

Everyone agreed with my suggestion to eat Latin American food and we made a reservation at Buena Vista, not far away from our hotel and also not far from the theater. We came over a bit early, around 5:15 and were immediately seated. We were immediately impressed by the business model. It is a melange of Latin American and Iberian faire with exquisite curation. Their cocktails were absolutely delightful, I had a Pantalones en Fuego, others had an exquisite margarita with passion fruit flavor and a Daiquirí de Fresa, just amazing. Then we ordered interminable Hors d'oeuvres. Their ham croquetas and mushroom croquetas were the rage, as well as the tostoncillos ibéricos and ceviche limeño, The main courses followed, a paella valenciana for two, the magret de pato, a delicious duck dish, and a grilled Argentine parrilla. Not bad for four people. Dessert included churros and tres leches. And of course, a bottle of a great Verdejo. Service was just flawless. We had several staff members all contributing to making our Father's Day evening special. All around us it was festive, with plenty of well dressed Spanish speakers in several tables, and the accents of a half a dozen Spanish speaking countries. Plenty of gringoes too. A beautiful collection of diversity. We left happy, ready to see "Oh Mary" and wanting to return
