This is not your typical Mexican or Latin-style restaurant. They've created a more old-world but fun atmosphere with white tablecloths and aproned waitstaff combined with colorful walls and ceilings. Beautiful art on the walls in the main dining room.The salsa is homemade, as I'm sure it is most Latin restaurants, but has a richer taste than the usual. The food was very good. I had carne asada and my husband had a burrito.La comida es sabrosa. Los meseros son amables y el ambiente es cómodo y elegante a la vez. Les recomiendo cenar aquÃ. Vamos a regresar lo antes posible.

I've been going there for quite a few years now, and always eat the same thing, Rock Fish. I always ask for it not salty. The menu is formidable; quite a lot of seafood and meat choices, all very tasty. I also have white rice with black beans and tostones (fried plantains), and mashed garlic on the side.

To give some background--my wife is from Venezuela so we have homemade arepas, black beans, rice, and fried plantains on a very regular basis.While we have eaten at a number of Venezuelan restaurants, this was our first time here. I opted for the La Surena arepa (chicken breast, chorizo, and avocado) along with a side of fried yuca. All the food was quite good. They bring to the table a mayonnaise and ketchup based series of sauces--very mild, medium, and wonderfully hot--quite delicious. It seems to take a while for the food to come to the table, but the wait staff is very friendly and helpful. I am pretty sure we will be back-- I like the extensiveness of the menu--arepas just about any way you can imagine. A little pricey--but a very good meal.

I saw this place for years before trying it and wish I hadn't waited. Now I go back again and again. We often get their "Super Bowl Special" which consists of two whole chickens and four sides (we get two rice & beans, fried plantains, and salad usually). It's amazing and easily feeds six adults, with some leftovers. The chicken is nicely seasoned, the sauces are of varying degrees of hotness (or you can leave them alone as I do), and the sides very tasty. It's amazing.

Several years and many crisp and juicy chickens later this small chain of Peruvian style chicken restaurants continues to please. They have several outlets in the DC area and all are worth trying. They used to be a lunchtime favorite of mine while working down the Pike in Rockville. They're still great no matter which branch you try. Viva el pollo asado.
