I did the drive thru. The guy was super nice. The food was bomb! So much better then the other El Pollo Incas that weve been to. Chicken was juicy and well seasoned and the soup was hot and filled with yummy nuggets. This will be a new go to for us!

I grew up in Miami, FL where I always had great availability to Peruvian food. Needless to say, when I ate here it felt like I was right back home. The food and recipes were cooked with love and the quality was excellent. You need to try their lomo saltado and pisco sour!
