    Order Details

    I ordered take out for pick up tonight. The whole chicken special, one additional order of dark meat and a side order of yucca. The special was supposed to include 1 whole chicken, 3 large sides, 4 sauces, and 4 sodas. My son picked it up, and when he got home and opened the bag, and the 4 sodas were not there. The additional dark meat I ordered was a leg and thigh and it hardly had any meat on it. The dark meat was in a large box by itself and it looked sad and lonely. I had written special instructions asking for mild sauce only, but 2 of the 4 sauces were spicy. The whole chicken was good. If I ever order carryout from here again I will open the bag and check the order before leaving the restaurant.

    Authentic Peruvian food. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sides were delicious.

    Delicious Peruvian chicken in Silver Spring
    Samet D.

    Being completely honest, I did not see that coming-- the food at this Peruvian restaurant in downtown Silver Spring is DE-LI-CIOUS! First, you order on a self-help kiosk which is super easy to use, very similar to one of those McDonalds kiosks. Then you select what type of food you would like to place. They have dark and white chicken options which come with various sizes such as quarter, half, or whole. It was a lunch time so I got a half dark chicken with one hot sauce, one Jalapeño sauce. As a side, I went with medium size French fries. Everything costed me as low as $14.57 including taxes. That is an amazing price! Plus the chickens were freshly cooked actual Peruvian quality. Additionally, a fun fact: for those customers who leave a review on Yelp or Google, they give a complimentary drink as a gesture. Overall, my experience have been great. I would definitely come back for another half dark. Special thanks to Lisseth, the young lady who helped me select my meal and suggested that Jalapeño was way to go! Thanks a lot.

    There is something seriously wrong with the corporate guidance that Crisp and Juicy chain gets. It doesn't seem like they train the units properly in organizing their interior especially their furniture. I have observed this in most of their stores. It's a shame because the food they serve has good potential(they use real chicken without breading and it tastes good), the service staff are always nice, the service is quick. I do like their food and the many options that they provide. Since the service is so fast, it has that potential for customers who can come and have a quick bite but the interior is so uninviting, nobody wants to eat there. And don't bank completely on take out and online orders. It's a given that online 3rd party sites take a big cut of the profit making your otherwise low cost food more expensive for the end customer. Food is Inexpensive, tasty, quick and relatively healthy for a fast food place. So use it to your advantage and give a little attention to the interior, you ll do great. One other thing, the menu on the wall has no prices making people touch the sheet you put near the checkout. People want contactless options these days. I ll post more pictures soon but I want to get the word out quick before I forget.

    Please avoid this place at all costs. I stopped by Sunday night (1/15) and I received the worst customer service. I ordered the 1/4 chicken combo with a salad and beans and rice and noticed that I only received one salad dressing so I asked for another one. The guy at the front refused to give me one and so I asked him why and he said that I have to pay for it. After explaining that I wouldn't mind paying for it, he still told me flat out no, which was very strange and extremely rude. No explanation whatsoever. I don't usually go to this restaurant because I have experienced bad service in the past, but it was late and nothing else was open. I live right across the street at the Pearl so it is very convenient to just walk over. However, I just can't understand why I was treated in such a poor manner. If I didn't want to pay for the sauce, that would be one thing. But I offered to pay and he still said no and was extremely dismissive. I hate to think that it has anything to do with race, but I find it hard to believe that it doesn't. Please save your hard earned money, especially if you're Black. I am telling all of my family, friends, neighbors, and sorority sisters who live in the area and/or visit me not to ever go here. Also, please note that the salad was thrown together and wasn't sealed all the way, which is a health hazard considering it was in a plastic bag exposed. I took a few photos of the guy for anyone who needs to see who he is. I really hope he is held accountable.

    Always great chicken and well seasoned. I always get their black beans and rice and the plantains. Both are a delicious add to the Peruvian chicken. I'm excited they have FINALLY put real vegetables on their menu with mixed vegetables and I hope they expand out to some more like green beans and broccoli.

It wasn't busy in here when I showed up, but the employees sure were busy behind the counter. There were only two people in front on me and it took a bit longer than it should have. I liked the set up in here. It felt more city than I expected. Even though it was in Silver Spring, I felt like I was more in DC than I expected. I ordered what I thought would be quickest to not only make, but eat. I went with their nugget meal, with lemonade. If a meal could be any more of a disaster, then this was it. I sat down and opened up everything, sauces included. First dip into the sauce, en route to my mouth, the coating gives way and sauce covered nugget falls and rolls down my hoodie. There are days you may daydream that you want to be covered in barbecue sauce, but not days like this where you just wanted to eat and go about your day. With that misstep aside, I ended up finishing my meal, covering up my stain, and leaving. Never to return here again.

No one is going to miss this place. Litter covered, and I mean COVERED the floor. Straw wrappers, entire servings of fries, cup lids, receipts, you name it... half the dining room was blocked off, seemingly because no one wanted to put forth the effort to maintain it. The five available tables were all dirty with salt and used napkins. The accessible table was the only one available, probably because it sits smack in the middle of the room. Every single person has to walk past it from the door to the register. I got brushed on the back of the head when some young noisemaker went back for his fourth refill. Most of the patrons were making themselves feel important by talking at the top of their lungs about mfers and such. Not the most welcoming atmosphere, but I'm the tourist here. Clearly. I had a cheeseburger on one of the stalest rolls ever left way too long on the shelf. Not really the kind of place you go back to complain and ask for them to remake it. Some flirt at the counter asked repeatedly for his nuggets to be freshly dropped, apparently not something they do often. Jeremy ordered his usual smorgasbord of items, but didn't even finish his first burger because they got his special request toppings wrong and he said the ketchup ruined the whole thing. That's saying a lot - when Jeremy doesn't finish a burger. Nothing like spending the very last of your money before your next check on a bag of inedible "food."

You could walk in at 3 p.m. for lunch or 3 a.m. for "life decisions" and it's ready for you either way. The place is always clean--like, suspiciously clean for a 24-hour spot. Even the restrooms are spotless, which is either impressive or proof they hired a bathroom wizard. The staff is super nice, though I think they could use more people working (probably a management thing, because no one making bean burritos at 2 a.m. deserves blame). Now, the magic here is that they serve alcoholic beverages. Yes, you can pair your bean burrito with a Baja Blast spiked just enough to make you feel like you're starring in your own taco commercial. And they just dropped a new Baja Blast flavor, so obviously I'm going tonight to do important "research" for my next review. Food-wise? Bean burrito--amazing. Taco Supreme--amazing. Crunchwrap--amazing. The nacho cheese sauce? A love language. You can customize everything, which means if you want extra beans, three types of cheese, and a dramatic amount of sour cream, they'll make it happen without judgment.
