Like others, I wish they had other side options like yucca, but I will keep coming regardless.

Pollo Rico is by far the very best Peruvian chicken in all the area and I don't care what anyone says. If you don't believe me, go there yourself and you will always see long lines no matter what the day is. Their chicken is always juicy and always have excellent flavoring that you can always remember. Fries (steak fries) and coleslaw are excellent! If you're in Arlington go andcheck it out!

This restaurant lives up to its name?the chicken is muy muy rico. The chicken is well seasoned and unbelievably tender. It?s a cheaper, tastier version of Nando?s. Fries are wonderful, coleslaw is tasty too. Could benefit from a wider sauce selection, but otherwise, no complaints. Staff is wonderfully kind and warm. Highly recommend.

The food at this place is awesome. Come from Maryland just to get it. The lines be long but it's worth the wait. read more The food at this place is awesome. Come from Maryland just to get it. The lines be long but it's worth the wait.

The yellow sauce remains a mystery but I order a large yellow sauce each time. Delicious.
