Was looking for something open a little later and found this place. The description says laid back, and it was that. At first look it looks like a sitdown restaurant style, but you order up at the front first here. We asked for recommendations, and were told about their rotisserie chicken and lomo saltado, so we got that and a fried fish. The food took quite a while to come out (downsides of ordering a whole chicken, maybe?), but it was so much food! I came with 4 people and we finished maybe 60% of it, so lots of leftovers. I was very impressed with how the chicken was grilled, but still had very crispy skin. Also, their French fries are really good, which is great because the chicken comes on a HUGE bed of them! If you're willing to wait a little on your food, this is definitely a great place to try. read more

DON'T EVER ORDER FOOD FROM THIS RESTAURANT!!!!!!! I had a really disappointing and honestly concerning experience at this restaurant. I was served chicken that was clearly undercooked--raw in the center. That's not just a minor mistake, it's a serious health risk. When I brought it to the staff's attention, the response felt dismissive rather than urgent, which made the situation even worse. Food safety should be the bare minimum, and this was a complete failure. I won't be returning, and I strongly recommend others double-check their food before eating here!!! read more

I came to Listo El Pollo in Reseda and ordered the lomo saltado -- and WOW. Easily one of the best I've had in the Valley. The steak was tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, with those caramelized onions and tomatoes that hit every flavor note. The fries soaked up all that sauce in the best way, and the portion was generous. What really made the experience stand out was the service. Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. My food came out fast, they checked in without hovering, and you can tell they care about customers enjoying their meal. This place has that "local favorite" energy -- simple, clean, and the food speaks for itself. If you're craving authentic Peruvian flavor and want to be treated right, definitely give their lomo saltado a try. I'll be back for sure! read more

This review is for the Pollo a la Brasa, take out. it's absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked every time. The service is excellent. everyone is so attentive and friendly. The food is always packaged really well, and the spicy sauces are amazing. I also love that they have Inca Kola and alfajores for dessert. This is my go-to spot for the best Peruvian chicken. The place is clean, and they even sell some Peruvian products. read more

I love(d) this place, but.. The price has gone up so much that it is no longer worth going to. The quality is ok, the service is still the same. The food itself is the same. The inside is pretty much unchanged too. Everything is still the same, but the price is way too much. read more

I went in yesterday to get some chicken when I got home the chicken was raw and the fries had mold on them. The person that cooked my food was hella rude when I complained about my order. Please don't ever eat here this place is horrible. I strongly suggest not to eat here their food was the worse I've ever bought. I can't believe they would serve hardly uncooked chicken and moldy fries to their customers. They should have the health department go and visit this place more often. read more

I got sick eating here recently ... We will not be coming back My friend and I noticed the food tasted off , especially the fries... I had the 1/4 chicken with beans and fries and she had beef saltado ... A few hours later I was feeling ill ... I tried the sauces too and I am not sure what made me sick because the chicken was cooked enough read more

Listo el Pollo - Peruvian Near Me - Reseda, California

Located in a smallish plaza. Parking is a little tough and tight. So if you have a large SUV, it might be a little tight or difficult to find parking here. As soon as I walked in, I can smell the mesquite they use to cook the chicken. I ordered the whole chicken dinner with rice and fried plantains. I only had to wait about 5 minutes for them to prep my food to go. Got home and noticed the smell of the mesquite and you can taste it on the chicken also. It's not overpowering by any way. The chicken has good flavor to it and was juicy. Even the breast meat was moist. But I did notice that once the chicken cooled down, the meat was no longer moist. That's what my wife said, but I didn't really notice it that much, but it definitely was not as moist as when I brought it home. The rice tasted like it was cooked in butter and some chicken broth. It was flavorful and reminded me of white rice from Versailles. The plantains were pretty good, though I prefer them to be softer. It was not overly sweet, but sweet enough. Overall, I will be adding this place as a dinner option when I'm in the mood for chicken. Oh, they do give you 3 sauces. One green, a yellowish and ranch. My go to is the green cilantro sauce. It's got a kick, but was not spicy to me. The yellow sauce tasted like it had spinach in it. I could be wrong, but that's what I tasted. Though the green and yellow sauces were good, I though all 3 were on the salty side. If they pulled back on the salt, then it would have been close to perfect. read more

Parking situation is absolutely horrible. Located in a sketchy part of the Valley. I found parking. Walked inside and it was absolutely empty. I was greeted quickly and ordered the half Pollo con Platanos y Papas. This place easily accommodates small groups of 2-6 people. I also ordered an Inka Cola. I was given a cup with ice and a straw. The chicken was quite possibly the best roasted chicken I've had in LA. It had a bit of a smoky aroma and the skin was slightly burnt to a beautiful crisp. The meat was just incredibly tasty and so well cooked. I poured the green Peruvian sauce they use and the flavors were enhanced so well. I personally like eating my Platanos until they cool down significantly. They were sweet and so good. They're fries, didn't seem special. But I gotta tell you they have thick cut fries and they season them so well. Paired nicely with my chicken. Overall, the Hospitality was just right. Food came out in a respectable amount of time. It was an amazing lunch and honestly. This is one of those memorable meals that you crave again and again and makes you come back. I would absolutely recommend this place. read more

I had seen this spot before and had seen some reviews on yelp but had never checked it out. Today, I happened to be in the same plaza, had already bought pupusas from next door and decided to come inside and see their menu. The guy/server taking the orders was helpful, friendly and even made several recomendations and also explained what some of their dishes consisted of. His name I believe is Cesar. I can definitely say their service is on point. I ordered their popular lomo saltado de res, it comes with rice and potatoes and was impressed with the portions. The meat was flavorful and so was their green sauce. The time to get my food was less than 10 min. The inside looks clean and spacious. They have several tables to dine in. I ordered my for to go. Will definitely come back to try different menu items. read more

Listo el Pollo - 1/4 Chicken with French Fries and Plátanos - Peruvian Near Me - Reseda, California

Ordered this on Uber eats on a Monday night for dinner. It took maybe about 45 minutes to get delivered but the restaurant is not too far from us. We decided to get the lamb saltado, the half chicken with fries and beans, and the mussels appetizer. I regret getting the mussels honestly because I'm not a huge fan of raw onions and tomatoes with seafood but that was my mistake. The ingredients seemed fresh though. What gave this review a 5 star anyways was the lamb and chicken. Both were cooked perfectly and had so much flavor. They were DELICIOUS and so herby!! Everything else complimented the meat well, including the three different sauces they provide. Would definitely dine in next time, the portions were huge and probably tasted even better fresh. (I did airfry the fries to make them crispy again). read more

The food is amazing. Whenever I am in the area I stop by. However it is very pricey. $24 for one plate is a lot.

Best Pollo A La Brasa in LA that I've head. I'm from the D.C. metropolitan area and my standards for Peruvian are high. This place did not disappoint. I like that they add a bit of spice to their aji sauces too. read more

It was my first time ordering at this place, and I was impressed by the quality that taste the freshness of the food. The service was very nice. The guy even let me know when my food was ready which that never happens in all other restaurants. I will definitely come to this place again to bring my family members and this restaurant deserved the review. read more

Loved it. The chicken, the papa rellena, the beans. All of it. And the best part is the feeling of joy after the meal.

A friend of mine recommended Listo el Pollo. I drove from the North side of the Valley to Reseda to try it. The venue is small but good enough to sit at a table and eat. We ordered a family chicken meal that came with two sides for $40.00. The meal will not feed a family though because my aunt and I shared the meal and ate all the chicken with the exception of two pieces. They do give you a lot of potatoes and the rice was like two kitchen spoon full. However, the chicken was amazing and full of flavor. I think this is my new fav rotisserie chicken! Potatoes also had really good seasoning so that was another wonderful treat. It is pricy but if you think about it's about $20 per person so buy another chicken for 4 people. The family meal does include a regular Coke or an Inca Cola. Parking is limited and in a small strip mall. You may have to park on the street. It's next to Yoshinoya so you can't miss it. Glad I found the chicken! read more

Fireeeee , green sauce also FIRE!!! Best food I've had in ages , best lomo saltado, got to try !!!!!

Delicious Peruvian food in the the Valley. This place I located at the corner of Reseda and Vanowen in this crazy busy strip mall. FOOD: Lomo Saltado: It's pretty much one of my go to dishes to order when we Peruvian food and this place does it really good. Super tender beef strips and well season so much flavor. The portion is hugh as well. Chicharron De Pescado: Delicious. Even for take out the fried pescado was still crispy when we go home. The pescado was fried perfectly. The salad criolla was fantastic. PARKING: So bad and if you do get lucky it small and tight. I found my Peruvian food joint for the Valley area. Looking forward on coming back. read more

What a waste of time.. so we called the restaurant and they told us that they were open until 10, we got here with the whole family at 8:50p. When we got here, they told us that they couldn't serve us unless we were taking it out to go. The server was very rude and laugh about it when he try to explain to us why we couldn't be served. Definitely never coming back to this place. read more

I didn't know what to expect when coming to this place because the reviews are kind of all over the place. Ultimately I give this place four stars because it was tasty but left some things to be desired. Ambience was fine. clean and cute, however it was a little dark in there. my biggest qualm with the ambiance was that they had a very large TV playing very loudly throughout the restaurant. It was so loud it made it hard to have conversation with my dining partner. The menu had lots of options, and unfortunately I didn't get to try any of the seafood dishes which looked very good. For someone who doesn't speak Spanish I could see the menu being a little overwhelming, which they tried to remedy with photos. The gentleman working the register was also very kind and took his time explaining different menu items like the papa relleno and answered all of our other questions. Customer service was great. We tried a chicken dish and the lomo saltado. Both were very good. I disagree with some of the other reviews that said the fries were bad. I found the fries to be delicious. They managed to be quite crispy even though they are a thicker cut and had quite a bit of caramelized onions and meat on top. So that was well done. The rice that was herbed that came with the chicken was very good as well. Overall we really enjoyed our food. Food was also served with three sauces. I found the green sauce to be absolutely delicious. At $20 per plate, I felt the price point was a bit off. While the ambiance was not there, the restaurant was casual and the food was pretty good. I didn't think it deserved five stars. read more

Not sure why I got refused dine-in service, when a party of 6 ordered right before me and they were allowed to stay and dine in. It was just my boyfriend and I, we each ordered a meal, nothing was extra. If it was because my boyfriend is African American, then they should post a sign saying they refuse to serve anyone but their own kind! When I approached the cashier and asked him why they were allowed to stay and eat but we weren't, I got a bullshit excuse saying they had gotten here earlier, which if that was the case, then why did they complete their order seconds before I approached the front counter? Needless to say, no matter what the food tastes like, I will go to another local Peruvian spot for this fare, service is shit and not worth trying! read more

Don't let the prices shy you away from the pollo saltado or the beef saltado. Both were absolutely amazing and the gf and I will most definitely be back. This place had a great atmosphere with delightful workers who explained all the menu items and popularity of the different combos. We loved every bite read more

Our food was delivered to us at work, so the first impression was the absolutely gorgeous smell of wood smoke and chicken. The flavor was incredible, so juicy, tender, moist and well-seasoned. We really liked the green Peruvian sauce-it was very much like a chimichurri, and fresh & delicious. Beans and rice sides were perfect-they didn't overshadow the chicken, but complemented it, and the green salad was crisp with a great dressing. We loved it and will order again soon! read more

Ceviche pescado. OH. MY. GOD. It's my first time trying this place after living 3 min away for the last 10 yrs. I'm gonna crave this every week! It's perfectly tart and fresh and wonderfully balanced with the crunch from the fresh and dried corn. Heaven on Earth! read more

Howdy howdy Alright, listen up. If you're not sure about Listo El Pollo, I am here to push to give it a try. I was not looking forward to it, very hesitant but after 20 minutes of reviewing the pictures and reading the old menu pictures I somehow convinced myself. Trust me I went all in, I got the whole chicken special to go, which comes with two large sides and a 2L soda. Lots of food, for my sides I went for the fries, and beans. The fries are just regular fries house made I assume, 2.5 out of 5. The Peruvian beans also 2/5 . The chicken though! Wow, whatever rub they use made it delicious. That I will give a 6/5 that's how good it is. I also got the Yuca. The yuca was bare with nothing but I love Yuca so to me it was delicious especially bcus I dipped the yucca in that yellow spicy sauce which bam was a party in my mouth! I also got the rice chaufa combination with it all.. shrimp, lomo, chicken and egg and onions and man!! So honestly give it a try. I will definitely order again! read more
