Great, simple, delicious Colombian food. Chicken was tasty and juicy and the sides were awesome. I’d recommend the sausage, chicken empanada, fried plantain, beans, and rice. All so good. I also had the blackberry smoothie in milk, which was perfect. If you have room for one more thing, try the cheese bread (pan de queso) it’s amazing. Great prices. If anything, it could be a bit more of a presentable place. Not an issue if you take out.

Ordered 1/4 chicken on the phone 10min before i arrived. I expected to wait a little bit longer. Maybe 5 or 10mim but they had me wait 25min longer and it still wasn’t ready yet. My entire lunch break was wasted, and i couldn’t wait longer so I just walked out.

These people are a joke I asked to make my chicharon extra crispy and the lady said it’s made for a certain amount of time which is fine I get it chicharon can take about 2 to 4 hours on how you make it I cook myself I’m Puerto Rican as well. The lady then said she’s not sure if they can do that and then says I will let the cooks know and see if they can.

This is sadden to say I had to actually come back to re-review this place & edit it from 5 stars to 3. I’m leaving it on 3 bc I’ve been coming here for 2+ yrs. &it’s not like they DONT make business. But let me just tell yous; the last 3xs (recently) I’ve ordered from them for my family & I, the rice & chicken has been SUPER SALTY. &yes I sure did call and told them that. Guy just said he apologizes. Very unfortunate. If they improve this, I can happily edit my review again. Not sure if I will ever order from here again. Besides all this, they’re food tastes amazing! Love every food they make here. Just hope they can go lower down the salt level.

Delicious Colombian rotisserie chicken with all the sides, great prices. Just a humble place making good food. They are only allowing two people inside at a time to order. Pick up only during these times, keeping it safe.

Great food for a reasonable price. Large portions and fresh. Stumbled upon the place on the way to the local roller skating rink in Branch Brook Park. Would definitely go back.

The worst thing about this succulent, perfectly seasoned golden brown chicken is that you may eat it all before you get home. You won’t find better rotisserie chicken. And don’t try and leave without some yellow rice and pepper sauce! You’ll be sorry. One more thing. Get there before the last half hour it’s open, ’cause there’s no guarantee they’ll be anything left!
