    10/10 the BEST Peruvian restaurant in the area. The chicken is by far the most authentic as you can get to the true Peruvian flavor. Very reasonable prices. The pupusas taste amazing and fresh. Found my favorite go to Peruvian Restaurant!!!

    The spot to go to for Peruvian chicken in the area! This place does not skimp out on portions and they definitely pile the sides up until your box can't close. Chicken was moist and I feel like half a chicken with two sides is enough for two people. I'd highly recommend their yellow sauce (ask for extras if you need). Their green sauce had a kick, if you like spicy sauces! Only complaint was that the yuca was slightly dry/stale, but you can reheat it at home. Try one of their pupusas! They make them fresh so ours came out warm and we got the one with everything on it - the revuelta (cheese, beans, and pork I believe). It was delicious! The place was really busy when we came in - that's how you know it's good. Just be patient and give them a little bit of wait if you come in to order (line does move quickly), but you won't be disappointed once you get your food!

    Flavorless smelly chicken.

    I can not believe this place has such good reviews. Im sitting at the parking lot trying to eat this chicken and it tastes like ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! they dont season their food at all! I am Pretty sure this restaurant is not authentic peruvian food. I dont think i have ever had worse peruvian chicken in my life. It literally taste like they boiled the chicken and thats it. Im soooo sad about this and highly disappointed. I am going to try to turn this chicken into chicken salad or something. Terrible terrible terrible!

    King Pollo in Chantilly is such a delight. While the regular menu items are fine, the lomo saltado (stir fried strips of beef) is easily the stand out dish. It's served in a tantalizing tomato based sauce (never seen it served "wet" anywhere else), with onions and tomatoes. Boy does that sauce pack flavor in each bite! Hands down this is the best lomo saltado I've ever had. There is a good variety of menu items but after discovering the this dish, that's all I come for and I'm here at least once a week. Eventually, I'll get to the rest of their menu.

    The food was over all really good! Even as leftovers! I would 100% go back. The only ding would be the plantains were very dry.

    Whole chicken with rice and beans and yuca

    I had recently came back from splashdown Waterpark and noticed a Peruvian restaurant nearby. My…read morefamily decided to eat there and it was one of the best decisions of our lives! The food was spot on and its portion sizes are very filling. The waiter who attends its was also very welcoming as he complemented many things and asked how we enjoyed/known Peruvian cuisine. Another thing was how fast the food came out, we were taking our 3rd sip of Inca kola and noticed the food had arrived. Best experience even and definitely recommend for people who really want to try new things!

    Nearly $30 for Tallarines Verdes con Bisteq? No Thanks…read more I ordered the Tallarines Verdes con Bisteq at Peru 703 for $25.99, which came to $28.59 after tax. At nearly $30 for one plate of pasta, I expected something exceptional. Instead, I got a dish with a low-quality cut of beef that was simply not worth the price. And here is where the comparison becomes ridiculous: Super Chicken in Reston sells Tallarines Verdes con Carne Asada for only $19.79 with tax. Not only is it nearly $9 cheaper, but the quality of the carne asada at Super Chicken is FAR superior to the "bisteq" being served at Peru 703. So let's be clear: Peru 703 is charging $25.99 BEFORE tax for Tallarines Verdes with bisteq, while Super Chicken is charging $19.79 AFTER tax for Tallarines Verdes with actual carne asada. That is an absolutely terrible value. The food wasn't the only problem. Thankfully, I ordered takeout because the restaurant itself was hardly appealing. The AC was clearly not working, there were multiple fans running, and the doors were open. The entire place gave the impression that the restaurant is struggling. When you're charging nearly $30 for an entree, customers should not feel like they're walking into a place trying to survive the summer without functioning AC. The service was also disappointing, making the entire experience even worse. I also noticed that Peru 703 has apparently changed its name to "Peru Fiesta." Given the number of negative reviews associated with the Peru 703 name, the timing of a complete name change certainly makes you wonder if the goal is to distance the business from its previous reputation. But changing the name doesn't change the food, the service, or the value. If you want Tallarines Verdes with REAL carne asada, go to Super Chicken in Reston. You'll pay less and get a significantly better meal. $28.59 for Tallarines Verdes con Bisteq at Peru 703? Absolutely not. For that price, I expect quality -- not an overpriced plate of pasta with an inferior cut of beef. I would not return, and based on this experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant.

I don't even have a huge appetite, and the amount of food I received was still surprisingly small. The service was also disappointing from the moment I arrived. The restaurant was completely empty, yet no one greeted me or acknowledged me when I walked in. I eventually had to walk over to the bar area myself to ask about my pickup order. The woman working there looked confused that I was even asking and mumbled a response I could barely understand. I figured maybe she was busy, so I waited, but the entire experience became increasingly uncomfortable. I stood there awkwardly for about 10 minutes while the employees talked amongst themselves and kept looking over at me, yet no one updated me on my order or even spoke to me. The worst part was the food itself. The potatoes in the Papa a la Huancaína were cold and partially raw. I literally had to finish cooking them in the microwave at work. The empanada was decent, and the alfajor would have gotten better marks if it weren't for the small hair I found on it, but overall the experience was not worth the price. Unfortunately, I wouldn't ever come back. Revash has better portions, better prices, and overall much better food.

I decided to give Super Chicken a try when in need of a quick lunch close to home. I opted for the half chicken combo with a side of black beans and plantains. My food was ready well under the quoted 25-30 minute pickup time. I found the food here so-so. The white meat ran a little dry. The chicken itself had a nicely seasoned skin, but the meat underneath tasted muted without any spice notes. Charcoal cooked birds usually have a hint of flavor from the coals, but the rendition here lacked any discernible smoke. The sides tasted as expected. The black beans were bland, but at least were creamy and well cooked. I have no issues with the well fried and perfectly sweet plantains. The sauces here are on par with area competitors, though the staff here are unusually stingy with extra container requests. Overall, while my meal was fine there was nothing "super" about Super Chicken compelling enough to merit a return visit besides proximity. Superior charcoal chicken is easily available elsewhere nearby.
