I come here on Tuesday evenings. On my way home from work in downtown Silver Spring. I've had the chicken with yucca, the pupusas, and the steak tacos. All have been excellent. The stand that really is the steak taco, so I highly recommend it.

My boy elliot (and tacos)

Carne Asada Tacos were delicious. Made quick easy, and cheap. Definitely would go here again. Would rizz again

Fajita Mixta Platter
Rayven W.

This place is a hidden gem! I hope they survive the pandemic. It's similar to pollo silvestre in Hyattsville. I was hoping for the same flavor and it's exact. Steak is very overdone but the fajitas mixtas platter was absolutely delicious. The black beans are so flavorful. Surprised there isn't more on this place!

I went into the establishment, and we were not greeted, and I joked with my mom thinking that I might as well need to put on an apron and work there part time, as the staff noticed us numerous times with no greeting, no offering for assistance, no customer service skills or care in the world none of the above. The wait was a bit long, as we were patient and I was kind enough to thank the man, and he was a stone wall. The delivery man was funny and called them goofy and told them off, as his livelihood depended on them providing swift and reliable customer service, but no and the delivery man although unfiltered said what others thought but were too polite due to social norms to unleash on these fools. The chicken sandwich itself was great not too salty and not too crunchy or friend hard with good sauces and the mac and cheese was not bad and milkshake nice and thick. I value customer service a bit too, so until that improves, this place won't get more than a mediocre reviews by me. I would recommend to order in advance to avoid the long wait times and unfriendly, lazy, unaccommodating staff. You will get fired on your lunch break coming in here not trying to order in advance. They need to step their game up with the customer service. I never give 4 to 5 stars to places that severely lack in one area or another. Food: 4 to 5 stars Customer Service 1 to 0 to negative stars, so guess what 2 overall is your score, please step your game up; it is unacceptable for customers to be neglected and treated poorly.

The Chicken tenders weren't tender and the coating was over-salted. The full rack of BBQ Pork ribs was a winner, tender and meaty with great flavor. The Slow-smoked Chicken is delicious and a nice, moist change from the usual chicken treatments. The Smoked Chicken Wings were great too. I wouldn't get the Texas Beef Brisket or the Carolina Pulled Pork again, but they weren't bad, just lots of other choices that were better! The sides here are stand-outs too. I almost didn't get the vegetarian Collard Greens since I love collards cooked with meat but these were delicious -- they never made it to the microwave, they were so vinegary-good when I sampled them cold lol! The Mac & Cheese was good and cheesy. The baked beans were good but again vegetarian where I'd prefer meat included and I didn't care for the sweet sauce. The Skillet Cornbread is the best I've had, slightly sweet with a good corn flavor that made me decide to buy a WHOLE skillet rather than just the generously portioned slice next time, especially since it's such a good value. I do regret not trying the coleslaw and potato salad so again, next time. The little rolls are tasty too, moist and slightly sweet but it's a pity they aren't burger-size so you can make a sandwich with all that delicious meat and sides.

They do have a dining area outside (it's a little small), so it's better suited for pickup. Friendly staff, easy pickup/ordering, and delicious food every single time. It's a little pricey, but given the quality worth every penny. 5 stars!

Don't take the Peruvian mayo (in one small container) and the minced green chile (in another) for granted, they really complement the chicken. Good to dip your yucca or fries in, as well. However, the star of the sides are the immaculate red beans infused with cilantro, may be the best you've ever tasted. I ordered a carton for an office pot luck once, it disappeared. My wife likes plantains for some reason and says El Pollo's are the most flavorful. Have an alfajore, a shortbread cookie sandwich, for desert, while you are at it. Let me tell you something else. It's been tough at restaurants, lately. While service here is fast, there always used to be a line of eager diners (workers, entire families, dining in and taking out, you name it) at El Pollo. We were thanked profusely at our last visit. Their food was the same as always, in spite of the shrinkflation trend everywhere else.

I particularly like the fries (generous portion), coleslaw (nice and crispy!), and the plantains. I'm not a huge fan of chicken normally but the spices are delicious, the chicken is juicy, and the skin is crispy. Definitely delicious.

This fried chicken could actually rival that of local chicken sandwich chain Roaming Rooster. That…read morewas my first thought when I opened the box of my Honey Butter Buzz chicken sandwich. Eaten fresh at the gas station, the chicken was still steaming after I took my first few bites. I ordered it "spicy" and it was just the right level for me. Like Roaming Rooster's honey butter chicken sandwich, Nash and Smashed's also has cheese in it, which I think overpowered the honey butter oozing from the top of the chicken. The chicken itself, though, was delicious and juicy. I got a side of their creamy signature sauce in the bag, but I did not really need it since there was already plenty of sauce for me inside the sandwich. It probably would have gone well with their waffle fries had I gotten them. The sandwich alone was enough to fill me up. A big reason for me coming to Nash and Smashed was a 3.99 deal for the Oh My Thigh chicken sandwich that they advertised on their Instagram page. I was bummed to learn this location was not doing it. This gas station version of their menu didn't even have that chicken on it, so the worker had no idea what I was talking about. Just a warning if you see any deal on their social media page. There's stool seating on the side with a lovely view of the gas station and Connecticut Ave out the window. There was enough room for four to five people. Another comparison to Roaming Rooster, the chicken sandwich prices are a little cheaper than RR's. Only a few menu items sound similar, but Nash and Smashed has a larger selection of burgers, chicken buckets, sides, and drinks. FWIW some guys next to me raved about their hamburgers, especially the sauce.

Always bet on gas station food places…read more This is a halal fried chicken restaurant located in a nondescript Exxon, and I've always wanted to try while I get gas here. Opportunity arose when my friends who eat halal were looking for a place, and they all thought the fried chicken was really good. The fried chicken was really crispy and juicy. I wouldn't recommend the sides, and it did take a while for the food to come out, so I think the food is prepared to order, so not something you can get if you're just getting gas and want the food quickly. There is minimal bar seating inside as well. Support the local gas station restaurants!!!

I ordered 2 whiting plates. One with collard greens with smoked turkey and fries and the other with Mac n cheese and rice and gravy. The fries were good. The whiting was fried to perfection. I also like the greens (I'm a southerner so I'm a bit hard to please). Everything was reasonably priced. The restaurant had nice music playing and has a bit of a lounge feel with the dark walls. It wasn't crowded on a Friday during lunch time. I'd go back for sure.

There is some parking in front and there is a parking garage that is within walking distance. I ordered wings and a meatloaf platter that came with two sides. I ordered lemon pepper and the sticky wings. The wings were crispy but lacked the lemon pepper flavor. I wish the stinky wings had more of the sauce on them. The meatloaf was seasoned well. You could get smothered with gravy or their bbq sauce. For my sides I ordered the greens and mashed potatoes with gravy. The greens were seasoned well. I don't know if I would go back, simply because it was really far out for me. If you are in the area I would say am check it out. The staff and service was amazing.
