    I expected this to just be another (highly recommended) chicken sandwich place, and boy was I wrong. As soon as I saw the Peru wall art and the large section of the menu devoted to Peruvian cuisine, I got about 20x more excited. Peruvian chicken is always some high quality, juicy, flavorful chicken, and this place was no exception. I'm so glad that Rochester has a great Peruvian chicken place. The inside wasn't busy (we were the only ones there on a Thursday night), and I suspect most people order takeout. However the environment was pleasant and brightly lit. Service was great. Staff were very kind, helpful, and handled my allergies well. Food was ready very quickly. If you like good quality chicken, this is a must try. -@cophiescrumbs on Instagram

    Spicy Chik'n Sandwich - Meal
    Azim M.

    Our next stop, the meal at Just Chik'n was excellent, featuring tasty food, a welcoming environment for families, and excellent service. I heartily suggest coming in for a meal, whether you're a Rochester resident or just traveling through. First of all, there is plenty of room for families and larger parties to sit at the restaurant. The option to mix and match tables was especially useful since it allowed us to have comfortable group seating. This adaptability is a big benefit for get-togethers and bigger parties. At Just Chik'n, the service was exceptionally exceptional. The service demonstrated a deep understanding of the food and was incredibly helpful and attentive. They improved our eating experience by promptly answering our inquiries and making wise suggestions. I had the Chik'n sandwich meal, which came with a Diet Pepsi and sweet potato fries with a chili lime flavor. The sandwich tasted great, with properly cooked, tasty, crispy chicken. With their distinctive combination of sweet and sour flavors, the chili lime sweet potato fries were a delicious addition that went really well with the sandwich. The 10-piece chicken nuggets with standard fries and Lemon Tea Pure Leaf were the choice my family made. With their crispy surface and juicy innards, the nuggets were a big hit. Perfectly seasoned and brown in color, the potato fries provided a delightful contrast to the nuggets. An essential note for those with dietary restrictions: the chicken here is halal. This consideration makes Just Chik'n an inclusive option for a broader range of customers.

    Machu Bowl
    Sara D.

    I was disappointed when I walked in. Not so much a restaurant, but a stark take out food establishment. I was even more disappointed when I saw the menu. Only a few items seem Peruvian, the rest looked like any American Chicken fast food place. I ordered the Machu Bowl- Shredded Chicken, Chaufa Rice, Salsa Criolla, Turtle Beans. The Chicken was very well seasoned, but too little. I think they deboned a drumstick and that is the portion. The Chaufa Rice (indescribable with a handful of dried Turtle Beans on top) fills the container, and the Salsa good all of a spoon. There is some Yucca Fries on the menu, what about Papas Huancainas and Causa... For an Americanized Peruvian fast food place is not bad, the Chicken is quite tasty.

    On my drive back to Buffalo, was hungry after just running the Rochester American Heart 5k Run/Walk.. it was later when I had stopped in around 830ish this past Thursday... and know I need something to eat... so of course went on YELP for recommendations. I must admit the reason for the 4 star rating, it was a little hard to find and in an odd plaza , even with using my GPS. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming and bright, which is something you don't generally see for a fast food place. Until this past week, I never realized that Peruvian chicken existed. My selection was the chick'n nuggets entrée, which were made fresh, and came with your choice of dipping sauce. Arriving later, as it was, very impressed on the portion size, taste and the chicken was steamy, pipping hot. Fast service and great taste, for something quick and filling.

    I was hungry after an appointment and decided to try Just Chic'n for the very first time (hard to believe with all the hype). It was late lunchtime so I just ordered their deluxe sandwich which means that lettuce and tomato is added. I also asked for some verde sauce on the side and I'm glad I did as without the sandwich was tasty, but dry. The result was a nice sandwich, cooked to order, but a bit higher priced than other premium chicken sandwiches. I'd like to return and try their Peruvian chicken which could add another star to their review. Nothing wrong with their sandwich, but just average. The place itself was sparse and I assume that although it has a few tables, they are seldom occupied. I guess that most of their business is take-out or delivery. The housekeeping seems lacking as in the photo there was trash next to the storage oven. And the tables were not clean and inviting. Maybe just there so you can sit while your food cooks.

    Sweet potato fries and XL Potato Fries
    Catherine L.

    This was ok. The people who worked there were nice, but they were understaffed. The food took forever, and when it came out, the fries were cold. The sweet potato fries had a good flavor. The rotisserie chicken was good, but it wasn't as good as Costco... We ordered a meal that came with cookies and some other things, and the servers didn't give it all to us. We went up to ask, but they were so busy we couldn't even ask about it. There were only two people working, and we were the only people eating in there. There were some takeout orders, and they seemed to take forever, too. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again.

    Spicy Chik'n Strips Meal
    Danielle S.

    I stopped in for dinner and ordered the Spicy Chik'n Strips meal to go, which comes with fries and a drink. I also picked up a pack of Alfajores cookies. It only took about 5-7 minutes for my food to be ready. The chicken strips were crispy on the outside and still juicy on the inside with a good kick of spice. I got the Verde and Amarillo sauces. I really like the Amarillo, it had a garlic flavor, and the Verde is more of a chimichurri kind of flavor. The Alfajores cookies are so good! They're Dulce de Leche filled and are soft with powdered sugar topping. They are a bit dry to bite into, but not in a bad way. I like the texture and the Dulce filling is delicious.

    Chik'n Nuggets Entree!
    Megan C.

    Mmmmmmmm nuggets forEVER. Had the opportunity to sample some Just Chik'n nuggets and spicy mayo sauce last week and was SO impressed by how delicious absolutely everything was. My partner did the ordering and found the process ordering off of Yelp to be super seamless and easy. Pickup was ready right when he arrived and said the staff was super kind. I cannot wait to come back someday really soon and try the Peruvian chicken options as well, I love the fact that they have such reasonable prices and meal deals for the whole fam. If you have yet to stop in... do it! Great for lunch or din. Don't skip the nuggets. I am for REAL.

    Good rotisserie chicken that's moist (had to use the word) and fall off the bone good. Well-seasoned and generous portions. The green Aji Verde sauce is amazing and is probably what brings people back, with just the right amount of kick. I've not tried their fried chicken yet, but the wife's chicken salad was just okay according to her. The greens were a bit wilted and the fried chicken was not too crispy. Maybe it was just an off day in the fryer. What's for certain is that I'll be back for the Peruvian chicken and Aji Verde sauce.

    As the name suggests, there's not a lot of options here. There are chicken tenders that come in regular and spicy and a Peruvian rotisserie chicken (a half or a whole). We only tried the fried options today. We could tell the difference between the regular and spicy chicken, However, the spicy wasn't hot, it just had more spices. The chicken tenders were kind of small but tasty. The service was great. Everything was clean, and hand sanitizer was available. Masks are required, of course. I regret not trying the rotisserie chicken so I will definitely be back for that.

It's my top choice for a unique chicken sandwich, so it has all the other places beat in that category for sure!

The breading and toppings are the perfect balance, not too much, but they add the right amount of crunch and flavor. I absolutely love their variety of themed sandwiches, and I enjoy their monthly specials. As a person with lots of allergies, I especially appreciate how accommodating they are. They make everything fresh and are able to modify sandwiches to accommodate allergies. They even have a statement on their online ordering platform confirming that they accommodate all allergen requests! The new Henrietta location is located where Schaller's used to be, so it is well suited to a fast casual restaurant. I love how close this new location is compared to the Penfield location, which means I'll be visiting much more often! This is a must-try! Love this place!

    Boss Fights and Bites Food Review: Sal's Birdland…read more What's good everybody--welcome back to Boss Fights and Bites, where we take on the toughest bosses and the boldest bites. Today, I pulled up to a Rochester classic--Sal's Birdland--famous for their legendary signature sauce. I grabbed the 6-piece chicken wings, and here's how they stack up on the Boss Fights and Bites scale. Flavor = Power-Ups The flavor is where Sal's goes full cheat code. The first bite gave me that crispy crunch, and then the signature sauce hit like grabbing a star in Mario--sweet, tangy, spicy, all layered together. It's bold, it's unique, and it straight-up makes the wings shine. For flavor, I'm giving this 9/10 Power-Ups. Portion Size = Extra Lives Here's where it gets tricky. Six wings? That's like starting a boss fight with only one extra life--you know you're gonna need more to finish the game. The wings were great, but the portion left me still hungry. For portion size, I gotta call it 6/10 Extra Lives. Texture / Cook Quality = Boss Hits Crispy outside, juicy inside--that's how wings are supposed to be. Every bite felt like landing a clean combo on the boss. No soggy wings, no dry meat--just cooked right. For quality, that's 9/10 Boss Hits. Overall Experience = Levels Cleared The vibe at Sal's is pure Rochester culture. The wings, the sauce, the tradition--it feels like something every local knows and every visitor has to try. It's messy, it's bold, and it's got history behind it. I'm calling it 4 out of 5 Levels Cleared. Final Score = Boss Fights and Bites Power Meter Put it all together, and I'm giving Sal's Birdland wings a solid 8.5 out of 10 on the Boss Fights and Bites Power Meter. Legendary flavor, crispy wings, unforgettable sauce--the only thing holding it back is that portion size. And that's the review right here on Boss Fights and Bites--where we mix the games with the eats. If you want wings that hit like a boss battle and a sauce that feels like a power-up, load into Sal's Birdland and see if you can clear the level. Until next time--keep grinding, keep gaming, and keep eating like a champ.

The majority of the menu is Turkish, and they are using authentic ingredients either imported from Turkey, or from the region. Our food was yummy and very reminiscent of the breakfasts we enjoyed when we were traveling. First, this place is in a strip mall and may not be easy to spot; second it's small, and despite their efforts to jazz up the interior with themed seating areas, it has a very take-out sort of vibe; and third, there are other things on the menu that I'm guessing they offer because of their proximity to RIT, but take my word for it - stick with the Turkish items and you will not be disappointed! Our order included the 'sucuklu yumurta', which is basically eggs with Turkish sausages served in it's own metal pan, plus the bagel plate, and I had the 'tray' (the name of which I cannot remember) which came with hard boiled eggs, fruit, cheese, tea, olives, tomatoes, cucumbers and a roll. It was almost exactly the breakfast we had every morning in Turkey, except the fruit we had there was fresh and here it was a kind of preserve. The portions may seem a little small, but prices are very good, and I would definitely recommend getting more things than you think you need just so you can try more and ensure you will leave satisfied. We are looking forward to going back and eating more of the menu!
