Ordered: 4pc Half Chicken Combo (~$18): with garden rice Beef Lomo Saltado (~$21): with white rice Fried Sweet Bananas (~$7) Aya's take: If you're looking for a fairly quick meal with a lot of flavor, Kikiriki will do the job. It's not the best Peruvian in the area and honestly deserves a 3.5/5 but I'm rounding to a 4 for the review. The 4pc Half Chicken Combo is a decent deal for the price point. The chicken is moist, well-seasoned, and pretty tasty. The garden rice isn't authentic as far as I know; every Peruvian spot will offer some form of rice & beans but unfortunately that's not an option here. They also serve this with an orange spicy sauce (aji amarillo) which was spicy, tangy, and a bit smoky. I'm surprised it doesn't come with the classic green sauce most Peruvian chicken places offer. I would also love if the Combo came with 2 half sides. Instead, I ordered Fried Sweet Bananas which were delicious but overly greasy and drenched in oil to the point where it was leaking out of 2 bags. The Beef Lomo Soltado is savory, tangy, and slightly smoky. The beef was pretty tender but the fries were so soggy. I almost wish they serve it separately for delivery so it can maintain some crispiness. The white rice pairs well with this since it soaked up all the delicious flavor from the beef, tomatoes, and onions. Not the best in the area but decent try! read more

Kikiriki - 4pc Half Chicken Combo (~$18) & Fried Sweet Bananas (~$7) - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

Kikiriki is an absolute gem! The fire-grilled chicken was incredibly fresh, moist, and packed with flavor--every bite was perfection. The seasoning was just right, and the crispy skin added the perfect touch. The side of fries and rice complemented the chicken beautifully, making for a well-balanced and satisfying meal. Everything was cooked to perfection, and I can't wait to order again. Only downside is when ordering takeout is there is really no where to park and it is a very tight street. Best option is to parking with your hazards on and have someone run in for you. Highly recommend! read more

Kikiriki is one of the best spots around. The hot sauce is to die for! Portions are decent, but the food is delicious. Staff is super friendly and the whole place is clean. They did a remodel since I've last been here, and looks great! read more

Chicken is great. Don't recommend the sides. The inside has a weird odor, would suggest doing take out of just chicken

Kikiriki - Combo Nine -2 Pieces of Chicken and Pork Ribs - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

The chicken they gave was so small and mostly rice. Could be better made and served. Had better

Great peruvian food, and my local eatery. I think it need a bit more TLC on some items, but i am not going to ding them. Other than that its a welcome staple to the community. Highly recommend. read more

we order for delivery and the delivery arrives incomplete... no sauce, no utensil, no napkins and they forget the sodas as well, when I call to claim the same person told us that they can send everything but with delivery charges again !!!! were really disappointed.... And the costumer service is really bad !!!! read more

Chose this spot because they had Yelp Order and while en route got a message that the order was canceled. Arrived to see the aging "Cash Only" sign, posted. They need to remove the Yelp Order option and add another candle to that sign's birthday cake. We ordered again and found the Lomo Saltado okay but on the greasy side, the chicken and ribs way better. read more

Scratching my head at the positive reviews that led me to order from here. I'm sure the chicken would be a better choice since that's what they're known for, but they shouldn't neglect other items on the menu. Like the lomo saltado, another Peruvian staple. It was basically the fast food version. Steak was chewy and flavorless (where was the char?), frozen French fries, and rice doused in soy sauce. Looks are deceiving as well... It was actually 70% rice and 30% saltado. I wasn't impressed, honestly and I would've been more upset had I not used a deal and only paid $10. read more

Kikiriki - a tray of rice, meat, and french fries - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

Love this chicken. Does anyone know the recipe for their hot sauce? What is the base ingredient, I would love to make it at home. I usually get takeout, inside is okay for quick dine in. Service was neutral, they are very busy. Atmosphere is ok inside. Fried rice is good too. read more

Kikiriki - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

We've had delivery from here twice in a week. The chicken is so juicy and flavorful. You just can't go wrong with this dish! We also got a large white rice with a medium black beans which was the perfect side. Also a salad and yuca fries. Only regret was that we got a medium yuca fries and next time will get the large. Meal was so satisfying and highly recommended! read more

We got takeout from here yesterday. It had been many years since either of us had come to Kikiriki. We were worried they might have fell off. When we got home we were delighted at what we saw (and smelled). We got chicken, fried yuca, maduros (sweet plantains), and pork fried rice. EVERYTHING was on point! Fresh, well seasoned, and properly cooked. The yuca is cut small so it gets nice and crispy. Even the ride home (20 mins) didn't kill the crunch! Success. The house hot sauce is delicious and basically goes well with every and anything! I know there are other locations, but this is the one we know so we went to Bergenline. Do yourself a favor and go. Happy tastebuds equal happy people! ENJOY!!! read more

Affordable and food is good. Would definitely keep coming back. Service is quick. Place is clean.

Great food for takeout at great prices. Very flavorful and good portions. Always got the same thing, rotisserie chicken so juicy that the liquid just runs down your fingers. Their Chicken chaufa is not short in chicken and veggies. You'll definitely enjoy it. read more

Great place for rotisserie chicken! Affordable prices but cash only so be sure to bring enough. They always have an ATM inside the place which is convenient in case you don't bring cash. Love their chicken and fried rice. The hot sauce is amazing. Must try. I have even just purchased the chicken alone and made my own salad at home before. read more

Best. Chicken. EVER. (I would suggest to order for take-out and enjoy this amazing chicken and alright sides in the comfort of your home.) read more

My new mission is to find the best peruvian chicken joint in West NY, Union City, North Bergen. Got the rotisserie chicken with the standard sides. Good value given the prices. You can easily feed a family of four with one chicken and 2 or 3 sides for less than 25 bucks! All the food I got here was a tad bit on the greasy side. Nevertheless the chicken was good. Sides were ok, the sweet plantains were not good, ridiculously greasy. Rice and beans, average. I would also put Kikiriki into the take out only category as the restaurant is pretty much no frills. Still in search of the best peruvian rotisserie chicken in the Jerse. read more

I have to give this 4 stars because for what it is -- a simple, no frills counter service restaurant with mostly takeout service -- it is inexpensive and delicious! I should mention they also do have some tables if you want to sit and eat but the dining area is a little food court like. I ordered the #9: 2 pieces of chicken, ribs, and fries for $6.89. They gave me so much! Fries were nothing special (as expected) but the chicken was so full of flavor, tender and um, well, literally finger linking good. The ribs were delicious too; interesting spices, tender and easy to manage pieces. Its not really saucy so I was worried until I took the first bite. No need to drown in a BBQ sauce, they are just good. Speaking of sauce, they threw in a couple of small mustard colored hot sauces. Don't be scared, try them! The sauce is a perfect addition to the chicken. Its a tangy, slightly spicy dressing, perfect for dipping a little bit of the chicken in. Give this place a try next time you are craving some roasted chicken! read more

This place is great. It was recommended to me by a friend. Get the ribs. They are DELICIOUS. If you get the combo it comes out to about $9.75. With the combo you also get rice and beans on the side. I felt that it was more rice than ribs so I started ordering the items separately. Now I get a small order of ribs and a small order of black beans. The price is the same as the combo but you probably get 3 times more ribs since you're not getting rice. Don't let the "Small" discourage you. It's a crazy amount of food for the "Small" portion. Great deal. Great food. *** CASH ONLY (that's why only 4 stars) read more

I ordered chicken, fries and vegetable soup. All was good! I would translate this in Spanish but I just narrowed English down not too long ago. But MUY BUENO! read more

Kikiriki - a plate of food and a bowl of soup - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

My man and I live 3 blocks away and have gotten takeout a few times. First time they forgot something. Second time was fine. Third time they sold us ice cold habichuelas with 2 rocks in em. No matter how good that chicken in, the obvious laziness and lack of care leads me to believe that one of these days salmonella will be on the menu. read more

This place is not anything fancy, but the make the BEST rotisserie chicken.We usually get the chicken with the pork fried Rice. They make this special hot sauce that tastes so good. This is one of the best Peruvian restaurants I have been to. They also have locations in Jersey City, West New York and Paterson. My mouth is watering as I am writing the review. They also do take out. they only take cash. read more

No frills spot in union city - they have great rotisserie Peruvian style chicken that comes with a side of rice ($6). The Saltados which are bigger in size are ($10) - it's a satay style dish with potato slices, chicken, onions and side of white rice. read more

Kikiriki - Pollo (Chicken) Saltado - Peruvian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

Chicken and hot sauce is good here. Not so much anything else. The rice isn't too good, I am not really feeling the garden rice, it has a aftertaste I don't like. Being half Peruvian, I know what good rice is! I love that they have chicha morada which is the purple drink! You should try it, very delicious! read more

Simply disgusting. Employees were not clean. Food tasted weird. Had to throw it away unfortunately. I don't understand all the positive ratings. read more

Got extremely sick. Went to doctor. Had major reaction. Now have epipen. I believe it was the sauce.

peruvan Chicken...ahhh very nice and juicy and also coming to JC! HURRAY!

Just came from there without any food after waiting a half hour for my order. When I asked the guy in Spanish I might add he just laughed and joked with his coworker that HE was supposed to make it. Asked for my money back and they didn't even apologize. I love their lomo saltado but they just lost a customer today. And they just renovated their place too. If they keep up that lackadaisical attitude they will have no customers. At the very least the front register guy should be fired. Into of checking where my order was he was busy flirting with one of the customers. Piss poor customer service. read more

Delicious chicken!! and the hot sauce is to die for!!! its right by job so I'm a regular ! I would eat this everyday if I could!

If you are looking for good pollo a la brasa, this is the place to go! I always get the chicken, plantains, and garden rice. It's cheap and it's good. And the hot sauce is amazing! I always ask for extra. read more

I really like this place. I usually get two pieces of chicken and a small side of yuca. I'd like to try the lomo saltado but the chicken is so good, I never try anything else. I like the sauce too. The only reason this gets 3 stars is because they don't take debit/credit... this is why I barely come here because I hardly ever carry cash on me. read more

Half chicken and pork fried rice combo , won't be disappointed and not to be missed .

One of my favorite peruvian place's to eat has a lot to offer the peruvian fried rice is pretty close to what you get in peru and the amount you get at that price can't be beat. The chicken is flavorful and the hot sauce is really good if you like spicy food. If this place has a down side it is that it doesn't have a full peruvian menu just the most common ones read more

wow what a juicy chicken. Great seasoning!!!!!! better than ones in NY extremely affordable and the best part is that one is always ready for pick up no need to call ahead or wait read more

best roasted chicken i ever had in my life and their special secret hot sauce is craaazy good!

As a Chinese, I give them five star. Juicy chicken and well cooked ribs, I so glad it is near my home.

I love this spot! I cannot begin to describe the value you get at this place. The prices are extremely reasonable and the portions are humungous!!!! They have an array of choices from chicken, ribs,fried rice, garden rice, steak and french fries. Everything is delicious, and fresh! This is generally a take out place, as their seating area and decor is that of a fast food restaurant, however their food is anything but matching the presentation. The service is quick and the people are very friendly and attentive to your needs as a customer. The sauces they offer are also very tasty. Their chicken and ribs are seasoned with a great bold flavorful spice and the ribs are crispy and juicy. They even offer a Dulce De Leche cookie that just melts in your mouth. Close your eyes and point to something on the menu and I am sure it will be fantastic. Bottom line, its a great place, for great food, at excellent prices. read more
