One of the best Peruvian style rotisserie restaurants in the area, in my opinion. The chicken is flavorful, great seasonings and a delicate smoky/grilled flavor. The meat is not dry, nice and moist. The yucca fries are always really good. They have a wide selection of sides like red or black beans, white rice or fried rice, french fries or fried yucca, red onion and tomato salad and a spicier red onion and tomoto salad. They serve tacos and a wide range of other items. I mainly go for the Peruvian rotisserie chicken. The portions to go are really large, they don't skimp! They are handling the whole covid thing very well. There are shields up over the entire length of the food counters and staff are wearing masks. The only surface you touch is the door and the pen if you're paying debit. They have outdoor seating as well while respecting social distancing and you can pick up your order curbside. I felt at ease while inside ordering my food for take-out. Very polite customer service and delicious food. read more

Super Pollo - the outside of a super pollo restaurant - Latin American Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

Chicken is smaller and not as good a couple years ago. Sides are not as good. Rice with chicken very bland, no flavor. Lot of the Yucca was to hard. I always loved to get the goat stew. Don't have it now Whole chicken, 2 sides + a med size rice dish. $45+ dollars Hope it gets better like it once was. Wish you the best Steve read more

Horrible service! I've been going to them for years. Their food is not as good as it used to be, and the prices have gone up. I will cook my own food before I pay for junk. read more

Great staff, and the fish is superb !! The chicken is delicious also. I wish there was a location in MD :/

Daughter and I stopped by for dinner. Chicken is perfectly marinated, and seasoned well. Very tasty. Nothing fancy, food is served in Styrofoam containers. Tables for diners. Good food!! read more

Horrible Service, The employee cutting the chicken couldn't even respond to request, only said "I don't know" /"gimme a second". Manager is extremely rudwas. I refused to buy the chicken because the employee would take pieces of the white meat out. Then manager couldnt articulate why we weren't getting our money worth of two whole chickens he replied with did you want white mea? simply don't go here. read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! They treat you so bad just for ordering, you have to order at a speed of their liking. I was exploring the menu , which seemed to irritate the person working there. Chicken was good but sides were not and the mash potatoes were a soup consistency. I've never been treated like that. So disappointing, they're located in a very family friendly area of good people, they really need to do better. read more

Stuck in a hotel all the way out in Carlyle, Alexandria with no car and not enough fortitude to tough the winter cold, I decided to check out the choices on Uber Eats and found this place. Admittedly, the lack of photos and reviews made me a little nervous but my dinner turned out to be quite good. The pollo saltado stir fry is served with your choice of two sides from a pretty decent list of options. I went for the white rice (the Peruvian version is so tasty) and tostones. Unfortunately, I ended up with a serving of fries instead -- an unfixable problem when you've had your food delivered. Oh well. So, potato overload aside, I was happy with my meal. Prices might run a little higher than for other Peruvian places in the DMV but the servings were also extra enormous. Try the crema volteada for dessert if you like flan. Their version was dense and tasty. A nice way to end my meal. read more

This is constantly my go-to for Peruvian chicken in the area, as it is great customer service and also great portions for the money. My boyfriend and I go here on random days of the week and we've never had a bad experience here. Their portions are extremely plentiful and delicious. read more

Super Pollo - Black hair in my sauce as soon as I took lid off - Latin American Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

If you ever have have a craving for both middle eastern and Peruvian food at the same time.. there is a solution for that. Super Pollo is a fusion of Peruvian delicacies with middle eastern flare. Their halal assortments of rotisserie chicken and kabobs are delicious. This is the perfect cheap eat. My go-to is their 1/4 white meat (it is extra for white meat) with spinach and french fries. They have the usual mayo and "green sauce" you get at most Peruvian establishments as well as a spicy red sauce. Do not sleep on this location. It's worth a visit. read more

Super Pollo - 1/4 chicken with french fries and spinach - Latin American Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I used to go there all the time but lately they have their kids working there and they really don't want to be there. They giggle and will screw with you and your order. I get the impression that I'm not welcome. read more

You can find a lot pollo places around the area, but this one is really good. Chicken kabob was great and cooked perfectly. They give you a lot of food with your order and prices are not crazy expensive. If you just want to eat a lot of food and not pay a fortune, this is one of the better pollo places around. Service was quick and friendly. Food was super good too. read more

Hi Super Pollo, I was harassed and disrespected by an employee. I had told them what I wanted for my sides and then they proceeded not to give me what I ordered. When I addressed the mistake, profanity was used towards me, and the rest of the staff engaged and began laughing. However I did not react because it's in another language. I put my hand out to retrieve the order and they just dropped it and walked away. This has been a repeated issue when I visit the restaurant. With that said the customer service is not only terrible, I felt attacked and discriminated against, who knows my food could have been contaminated or played with. I will not be returning to any of your locations. If I do it will be to expose the terrible bigoted employees you have. I will file a formal complaint next time. You charge way to much to treat your customers like this. I hope your employees learn to treat people with dignity and respect. read more

Sadly, this place has potential, but the service is not good, and the food could be very good if it was fresh. I also should have known it wasn't going to be great when I walked in during dinner time and I was the only customer. We like our rotisserie chicken well done. I asked the guy if they could do that, but he coldly pointed at the many chickens that they had under the food warming lights and said this is what we have. I asked if they were at least fresh, and he said they were cooked an hour and a half before. Basically, he was telling me no, they aren't fresh. I thought whatever, we were hungry and I didn't feel like going somewhere else. I ordered a whole chicken with fries and salad. The fries were not fresh and barely warm. I could tell they were not fresh, but again, I was in a hurry. They were soggy. They would have been totally fine if they weren't sitting there for way too long. (I also noticed from looking at the mashed potatoes that they were also stale - it was showing "cracks" so you could tell it was not good). The chicken was actually at a good temperature, but the skin was soggy because of the fact that it was sitting there for so long. However, it was a pretty large chicken, and the seasoning was good as well. Again, if the food was fresh, it would have been very good. The price was also expensive compared to The Chicken Place in Bailey's Crossroads. I believe the whole chicken was $22. At The Chicken Place it is around $16. If the food was fresh, I wouldn't mind the price, especially since the chicken was bigger. I usually eat half a chicken, and my family eats the other half. This time, I only ate a quarter because it just wasn't appetizing. To sum it up, the employees were pretty cold/rude and seemed like they didn't want to be there. This alone was a huge turn-off. Food could be great if they weren't cutting corners. I would have gladly waited for a fresh chicken if that was a choice, and they could have gotten at least 4 if not 5 stars. I will just stick to The Chicken Place from now on. read more

Pricey, but delicious chicken. Our local favorite. The spinach side dish is excellent. Ceviche is also very good. On Sundays they often have goat stew, which is also extremely tasty and not too spicy. read more

This is not the best Peruvian chicken money can buy but it's good! Also near my house so I come here a lot when I'm too lazy to cook. The service is super quick. You can be in and out in 5 minutes if you what you want and are in a hurry. The shopping center they are in is currently being renovated so hopefully it looks better after. You can get a lot of food for not a lot of money here. Another plus - it's halal. My personal opinion on the best Peruvian chicken in the area: Pollo Rico. read more

The chicken, onion salad, and spinach are amazing. Great food every time.

I have been meaning to try this place for a while, because the smell wafting over the Harris Teeter parking lot is amazing. Finally stopped in today, and I won't be back. The chicken that smells so good is stacked high in a glass box, reminiscent of a mass grave. Similarly, there are about ten pounds of French fries under a heat lamp that were cooked some amount of time in the past. I went with the chicken burrito, because the mass grave scared me. It was clumsily wrapped (had to eat most with a fork) in a ho hum tortilla and was nothing special. Some of those fries came with it... Tasting as you'd expect. Dipping them in the green sauce propped them up some, but not enough. I miss San Diego taco shop burritos, but this place made me miss the explicit board of health grades in the window. I am not daring enough to try this stuff without reassurance that everything is to code. read more

Our go to for our last minute dinner needs. My favorite side are the chick peas. Make sure to try the plantains too.

The bottom line: Spicy, juicy, flavorful and with a side of crispy yucca fries. My first and favorite Peruvian chicken joint. Ok, it looks like a cafeteria but who cares? I've order the chicken sub here (though I've heard raves of the chicken portions). For the sub, they cut the meat off the bone, stuff it in a soft bun with melty cheese, and give you a glorious green sauce for extra zing. You get to choose a side dish and I once chose the fries (a bit soggy and sad) but the fried yucca (especially when freshly fried) is crisp and delicious. The service is great. I've always been greeted warmly, with a smile. The price is also right (I think it's about $7 for the sub with side). Come to think of it...I need to go back to Super Pollo. read more

Not a bad place for some charbroiled chicken Very juice with a nice lil crisp on the skin. Awesome selection on sides too, not sure your beans and rice or coleslaw and fries. This is definitely one of my reg places, but my favorite is still Pollo Rico in Arlington read more

Service is quick, the food was cheap, and it was tasty - not much more I need for a weeknight dinner! The chicken was tender and seasoned well, sides were all delicious - there's really not much else I can say. FYI - You can order a "whole chicken" but ask for it all to be dark meat (or white meat if you prefer). read more

This place is great. They just added some tables outside due to the Covid 19. So now they have outdoor and indoor seating and of course take away and delivery. They are very nice and there's a large selection of food. They have delicious Peruvian chicken and also offer kabobs. I've had delivery a few times and they always get it right except for once they have me French fries instead of yuca. I blame it on ordering online. I'm sure it would be fine if I ordered it through the phone. Anyway the food is great and the prices and portions are great too. read more

Food use to be good which made up for their service. Not anymore! For the price I'm going elsewhere! I'm very sad.

Not sure why there are so many low ratings, but one thing is for sure - this place has consistently great Peruvian chicken and yucca fries! But the star are the sides. The rice and spinach are amazing - you can't find it anywhere else like it! I've been coming here for years and this is by far one of the best pollo places in the area! read more

I'm not going to bore with a whole bunch of words. Go. It's good. It's cheap. The bathrooms are clean. I personally like the seasoning of the chicken better than El Pollo Rico. P.S. Don't get the steak but the steak and cheese is delish. read more

Don't come for the atmosphere but do come for the food. PRO: (1) Friendly kitchen and line-staff (2) clean Ordered the Pollo for 2 ($16.99) with four sides and three drinks. Chicken was moist, tasty, and beatifully spiced - just right. CON: Watch your sides! (1) Had steamed vegetable assortment which were completely dry and tasteless. Too bad, it would be so EZ to fix them properly w/just a little of the native seasonings. (2) booming overhead TV which echoes throughout a large space with bare carpets and walls. While OK at best, there is other "Pollo" around with better food and atmosphere at the same price, or better. read more

The food was good, the service not so much. Similar to the review by Tiffany W., I found that the business is less than honest. I ordered a 1/4 Chicken ($6.99 on the menu board). I was charged $7.49 for the chicken, and an order of plantains was added (which I neither ordered nor received), bringing the total to $9.00. Unfortunately, if you're paying by card, you have no visibility to the order until you're handed a receipt. Since I was kind of in a hurry, I didn't have time to argue with the clerk. Haven't returned and won't... read more

Typical Peruvian chicken for NOVA. They have a better variety of dishes that you may want to explore. The portions are great and the prices fair. They take credit cards. The place is generally clean including bathrooms. The service is efficient but not special. read more

Terrible service, poor customer interaction and food that has lost flavor from sitting excessively. Choose another place that is friendlier and healthier. read more

Always charging extra!! I love me some halal chicken, but whenever I get to this location, they always try to find a way to charge extra. I got chicken with rice and they charged me extra $1 for "plantains". When I asked them why they charged a $1 extra for plaintains when I didn't get any, they said "plaintains" was rice in Spanish... I'm not that stupid. I am not coming to this location ever again. I am going to go to the location at Arlington... better service and quality! read more

Super Pollo is my go-to place for Peruvian chicken. The chicken is always tender and delicious, the steak fries are always served hot, the rice (I'm talking about plain, white rice here!) has some flavor I would kill to replicate in my kitchen. And of course, the sauces! It is well worth it to ask for some extra sauce, I use it for everything. On top of all this, it is a very solid deal for a half chicken and two sides. The service is efficient, if not particularly friendly. But I'm not driving to Lincolnia to make friends, I'm driving for the chicken! The establishment isn't the nicest, but it has space and is largely undiscovered by the crowd that packs into Pollo Rico all the time. An under appreciated gem: Super Pollo. read more

Peruvian Chicken joints are much the same when it comes to menu content and atmosphere. They all serve chicken and steak with similar choices of sides and they all preserve the middle school cafeteria ambiance. Where they usually differ is in chicken taste and quality and in their sauces. Super Pollo is on par with most other high ranked Peruvian chicken places in the area. Both their sauces and chicken don't blow you away but they also don't dissappoint. i choose Super Pollo because of convenience more so than desire, but it hits the spot. read more

I decided to check this place last night. I've been reading tons of reviews on places like this, and it was time to go. The menu is somewhat limited, but really, at a place called Super Pollo, should you be ordering anything other than, well, pollo? I got 1/4 chicken with two sides. It's served cafeteria style. They guy made sure I like the look of my 1/4 chicken before putting it on the plate. I got spinach and plantains as my sides. They had a bunch of coolers with a really wide variety of drink choices available. Aside from the spinach, my meal was amazing. I could have eatehn 1/2 a chicken from there. It was well-seasoned, juicy, with crispy skin. I'll be back again, and maybe I'll discover a different side dish I should have to bump this place up to 5 stars. read more

We get take-out from here on a monthly basis. The location has good parking, they accept credit cards, and has a large spacious area to dine-in. Customer-service is hit or miss. Sometimes they load you up on extra sauce ONLY if you ask them to. The chicken is delicious, and I feel like they are best in the NOVA area. Love their chickpeas and spinach is also good, but often too oily. The green sauce and white sauce are the best and what makes this place stand out! Their yucca is pretty dry though. Plantains are OK, and sometimes dry. Rice is fluffy and moist. I want to try their other offerings, but so far we only get the chicken and sides here. Prices are reasonable for half a chicken and 2 sides it's $10! read more

Super Pollo stands out amongst all the pollo a la brasa joints in NoVA. The standard I measure it against is El Pollo Rico in Arlington. El Pollo's chicken is more heavily seasoned (especially the cumin), but that doesn't mean SP's is lacking. Personally I think it's less salty, which is my preference, and of course SP has a good selection of side dishes. The plaintains, chicken fried rice, and chick peas are also good. The cole slaw is KFC's with an extra dose of mayo so if that's your cup o' tea go for it. I usually get the spinach and fries or yucca, depending on what came out of the fryer more recently. Just peer over the glass counter at the bins and see which batch glistens more. The two sauces that come with the chicken are good mixed together. I usually put half of the green into the container with the mayo-like one and dunk my fries/yucca into it. I know people use the sauce for the chicken but I feel like it's already so well seasoned that it doesn't need any extra help. read more

They are very generous on the sides which I enjoy. The guys working there are nice and fun to see. My issue is the seasons used on the chicken. It taste like pepper and it's not to good. I like Edy's Chicken. read more
