We will be back to try something different. I thought my husbands mixed seafood fried rice was over cooked but my beef noodle were delicious. This is the first time we have been to La Granja and I forgot I had had Peruvian chicken once YEARS ago and loved it with the light sauce that is on the tables! We will be back to try the chicken! read more

I have been coming to this place for 7 years and decided to write a review. I love this place! The portions are huge and the food is amazing. I usually travel with a few people and we call the place big chicken because of the quantity you receive. The quality is excellent and you leave full. I have started experimenting with new menu items and everything I have had is great. I had the seafood gumbo last and it tasted delicious. The scallops were a little over cooked but the rest of the dish was perfect. The sautéed dishes are fantastic. If it is your first time choose the grilled chicken plate with yellow rice, black beans, and plantains. They have several onion based sauces or salsas that compliment the meal well. Just be aware that you will leave the place full and with onion on your breath if you choose to enjoy the salsas. I love this place. read more

O....M....G! I'm mean seriously? ! My husband and i are totally in love with just the first bite! (And each other of course ) . The food is absolutely tasty for our taste and with BIG portions. Being that we are both from the Caribbean, the flavors were just right. It had a very familiar flavor that we were accustomed to traditional Caribbean get togethers .They have great prices, and really nice people . Also they serve beer, which is nice when you wanna chow down and finish it off with a cold one! nice atmosphere as well to dine in. Since I've moved to Florida, this is definitely my most favorite ! Sad to say, i think i may like it just as much, and plus alittle more, than my beloved, pio pio . Definitely going back! read more

Don't let the fast-food-like wall of a menu and red plastic cafeteria trays fool you--this place is great! I went on a Saturday afternoon for lunch, and it was packed--a good sign for sure. It was well worth the wait, standing in a line 15-people deep, for the ceviche de pescada (topped with translucent, purple strands of red onion and accompanied by sweet potato and corn), yuca fries, and rice & beans! The condiment bar was probably my favorite feature of La Granja, complete with a spicy onion salsa, a garlicky onion salsa (great with the yuca), and a few others. Top it all off with a yerba mate, and your lunch is complete! read more

La Granja Restaurant - Ceviche - Latin American Near Me - Margate, Florida

My co-workers and I have come to affectionately refer to this place as "The Big Chicken". Although the steak and fish combos are also good, the #5 chicken platter is the way to go. The piece of chicken barely fits on the plate (hence, the big chicken), and the rice, black beans and delicious plantains compliment the meal perfectly. Try some of the various onion salsas on just about anything, and an alfajores for dessert. It's a delicious and filling meal. read more

La Granja Restaurant - Latin American Near Me - Margate, Florida

The food here is excellent, large, and cheap! No doubt the best bang for the buck in Margate. There's lots on the menu but I always get the #2 - 1/2 a chicken, rice, beans, bansnas, and a drink for $7.95. You will be stuffed! From the outside it doesn't look like much but on the inside the flavor is gigantic! I'm not sure how they do it but the rotisserie chicken here is perfectly cooked every time. The seasonings make the crispy skin explode in your mouth. And the meat is always so tender and juicy, never dry or over cooked. Seriously, after one helping your taste buds will beg you to eat here at least once a week! No lie. It's really that good. The style is Peruvian. The "salsa" is purely made of onion! When I first saw that I didn't think I would like it. However, after one taste I was a lifetime fan. Somehow they are able to remove all the heat from them. They cut them into little chunks and mix in a magic white sauce. The juicy tangy acid flavor is the perfect match to make everything really "pop". They serve drinks in a bottle. That means "No Refills." Here's a tip though, order a fountain punch or lemonade (or a mix of both like I do) and you can have 1 free refill! There are lots of LaGrange Restaurants popping up all over the place. Sadly, none can hold a candle to this secret little treasure on Atlantic Blvd. Come with family, come with friends, come alone, just come! And bring a BIG appetite with you! read more

La Granja Restaurant - Close up of the herbs and spices. - Latin American Near Me - Margate, Florida

This La Granja is in margate and is by far the bombest! If you want to know how just look at the lines out of their door. Big old plates with any meat imaginable. Worth the wait online at this one! read more

Now this chicken is not rotisserie anymore, it is a copy of pollo tropical and not good unfortunately. It's sauces are really bad.

This is literally a fast food Latino restaurant! The food is served in big portions and is so delicious! This is the type of restaurant where you go up to the counter, pay for your food, get a number and pick it up when it's ready. They also have a sauce bar where you can try all different types of sauces. They added a location near me in Kissimmee off of 192, so that is my next location to try! read more

Ive always been happy when I go here. All their locations are great and they have a lot of them accross South Florida. If you love chicken, this is the place for you! You get good and fast service but much better quality than fast food restaurants. I usually always get the Ceviche. It really hits the spot. Im there at least once a week. read more

La Granja Restaurant - Ceviche - Latin American Near Me - Margate, Florida

I have been a loyal customer of this store for many years and I had always given them excellent reviews but today something happened that makes me think that I will not order food from this store never again. I order a Delivery by Uber eats today. I'll start by explaining that he always ordered the same dish, the bowl steak. . On weekdays they have this special until 4 pm which is obviously a smaller portion and costs less. They also have the SUPER BOWL STRAK which is a larger portion and obviously costs more money. Today I ordered the SUPER STEAK BOWL AND WHAT I RECEIVED AT MY HOME WAS A LUNCH PORTION. What's more, I could tell you that what I received was much less than what I normally eat for lunch. I decided to call the store and talk to the manager to explain the situation. And absolutely nothing happened. They don't care. I talked to a woman who just listened to what I said but didn't offer to make amends for the mistake they made. These large restaurant franchises tend to think that customers don't matter because they have many customers. But it is disrespectful. I understand that inflation is affecting us all but I am also going to tell you that so far this year this dish has had an increase of 4 dollars or more per serving. I'm very disappointed. Keep in mind that I have been going to this store for more than 10 or 12 years, if not more. I had already had a couple of situations with this restaurant that I had not liked and I had overlooked them because I understand that we are not talking about something 5 stars restaurant . But I think it is a mistake not to make the pertinent claims because every time we clients have fewer rights as consumers. read more

My co-worker got overcharged over $1000 for his meal and they did not want to refund the difference automatically. Please come pick a check up. After tying up his bank account and credit card funds 2 days before Christmas they made him take off time from work and he had to have the office manager take him down. No apology Refunded just the overage and not even the price of the $6.11 meal he had. Nothing. What idiots. I will not return there again. I don't do business with people who have horrible customer service. I listened to over 40 minutes of some bad customer service from both the offending store AND the corporate office. Pitiful. Although the food is ok, customer service is not trustworthy. read more

This fast food-esque restaurant serves very good Peruvian food. Menu is pretty easy, with pictures to help out folks like myself, who are not wholly familiar with this delicious cuisine. I ordered chicken, with rice, and beans and side of soup. The food was tasty and the portions are rather large. Make sure to stop by the condiment bar which has some spicy options to kick your meal up a notch. The interior reminds me of a McDonald's or Taco Bell, but who cares if they are serving delicious food at an affordable price? read more

Went to this place thinking it was Cuban food, or perhaps similar to Pollo Tropical. I was both surprised and impressed upon eating. The La Granja restaurants are Peruvian, and a small chain here in South Florida. You get massive quantities of food, and it is very tasty. The best part, however, is the sauces. There are four different salsas at the salsa bar, and then a couple different sauces in ketchup tubes on the tables, or near the cash register. Mostly, I just like to try them all, since they're so good. I think the green is my favorite in the tube. Of the salsas, the orange-y spicy one is the best. But you gotta like the heat to take it. The dining room is small and the place tends to fill up. I've never had to wait for a table, but have had to bus the trash of the people that sat there before me. read more

I spent a lot of my senior year in high school at this joint. I'm very impressed. Very cheap food, very filling, and very good. Their pico de gallo bar is great, and the sauces add a nice kick to your meals. Get the steak or the chicken breast for your first time - although the 1/4 chicken makes for a good lunch time meal. I like the plaintains over the fries, although the fries are really good too! When I'm in NorCal, I often have dreams about this place. read more

A haiku for you : La Granja chicken Yummy and inexpensive Yellow rice and beans The chicken is definitely better than pollo tropical, and the portions of rice and beans are huge. The chopped marinated are also delicious. I wouldn't recommend Lomo saltado. It looks good, but the beef is definitely chewy. Go on Monday-Friday lunch for 4.95 1/4 chicken, rice and beans. read more

O love this place before in the last year food change too much first time I was thinking maybe is not a good day so I'm get back there again a bad experience probably is not anymore the same employees was before so Sad but I don't recommend to go this location read more

**Mouth watering as I type** I *heart* this place!! Food is soooo good!... did I say good? ... I mean great ... did I say great? ... I mean AMAZING! I can't even spell Peruvian! (...ok, I just did) or even know where that's at!!? (Peruva who? Say what now??) But I love their food! It is simple but so flavorful ... its a PARTY in my mouth! My tongue is totally getting its groove on. It gets pretty crazy ... just saying ... Price is good. Service is good. It's all about the food for me. #FatKidSwag If you didn't know .... now you know. read more

I've been going to this location for many years, but as of the past few months the chicken has a bad taste. It tastes spoiled. I order the same meal all the time Quarter chicken dark rice and beans. I mainly love la Granja for the green sauce. It doesn't matter how much green sauce I pour over my chicken I still taste sour spoiled chicken. Please fix this problem. read more

I normally think I'm too cool for chains, but this is actually really cheap, delicious food. Everyone in the house is usually happy with the steak and parilla chicken meals and the fish is just plain fried fish covered with onions and tomatoes. Like the other review said, they have good sauces, but they have an onion bar. They have like 4-6 kinds of different onions to put on your meals in the middle of the restaurant. The very best part? There's another La Granja within a few miles of this restaurant on 441 that is always uncomfortably packed (it takes forever to get the food) and it serves the same menu. The parking at this one is usually tight during dinner rushes, but you can always find a space in the parking lot for the shopping center next door. read more

Can never go wrong with the food here. No matter what I have ordered the food has been great. The place is just like Pollo Tropical as far as the menu but the taste of their food is much better. This place is right by my house so if we are ever not in the mood to cook, this is out go to place. The resturant is well maintained, and is fine for a small group. This place is always packed and you are sure to wait a couple of minuets in line to place your order. read more

Passing through Margate on our way back from Coral Springs. Haven't been to this location in quite awhile and I won't be going back. Just arrived home to discover, they literally gave me a fork-full of beans in a cup of bean juice. Maybe they cut corners when they do takeout because they know you won't find out until you get home. read more

I have no problem with the food, the food is always very good. My problem is with the people at the register who don't know how to speak English. Every time I come in there I always have a hard time communicating. my order usually gets messed up. If you are going to hire illegals or people that don't speak the language, at least put them in the back, not up front where they have to talk to people read more

Some great Peruvian food some of the best in south fl if you havent been please go steak + rice and beans = full belly and very happy read more

This is our Sunday night go to place when we are too lazy to cook at home. The food is always freshly made and and the portions are more than generous and the price is quite reasonable.... the average very filling meal with a drink averages $10-12 and the family dinners are very affordable! This is a great place to eat on a budget. The Menu is up on a board above the counter that you order your meal at with clearly marked prices and pictures and the service is polite and efficient. The menu is mainly Latin and Peruvian with an interesting assortment of dishes We usually go with the grilled chicken, pork or the beef and have never had a bad meal. The Fish and Chips are crisp and tasty but I would avoid the marinated grilled onions that they put on the fish as that makes it a bit soggy. The rice and beans are standard with the fried plantains and one does not come away hungry from this place. They close by 9 pm on Sundays so come early....they are prompt!! We will continue to frequent this home styled place on future Sundays ...God willing! read more

This is right near our house and is our go-to restaurant when we get nowhere with, "I don't know, where do you want to go?" Fries are great and piping hot but not good for re-heating. Sauces are a must. Our kids love their fries and rice. read more

Ok this is the place that makes one of the most authentic latino ways to cook a steak, their grilled steak is amazing (the special number 3) as you can see at the picture they served you plenty of delicious food including a drink for about 10 bucks!!!

So the news reported that this location had some food & safety concerns. Hearing of roaches and dead rats is super disappointing because I love this place :( I tried boycotting the brand all together, but its just too good to pass up. lol. Now I just drive to the next location. I have high hopes that this wont turn out the same.... I gave this location 2stars bc the food is amazing but the lack of concern for the health & safety side is disappointing. Definitely give them a try just not this specific one. I have always worked in the catering industry and failing an inspection is just plain BAD. read more
