    A solid Peruvian restaurant, with generous lunch portions. The place is small, but with good service and food. The ceviche plate was huge, and almost had to take some home. They have some pretty good pupusas as well. Oh, and the chips are great!

    Today Saturday August 20th, 2023 I called his place to order chicken, which is their specialty. As a matter fact it’s part of the name of the restaurant. Their answer was we’re sorry. It’s completely unacceptable. It’s 7:50pm . She says to me , we close at 9pm , so there isn’t enough time to make more. I have been going to the this place for years and have overlooked some bad service experiences because the food is great . But is time to find a new Pollo place .

    We stopped here for dinner after a long hot day of soccer and Pollo Inti did not disappoint! Our kids were skeptical as they’ve never had Peruvian food, but we all walked away impressed! Great menu selection and huge portions. Everything tasted great and the staff were quick and friendly. I’d come back without hesitation!

    The food was great, and the waitress was very helpful in explaining dishes I was not familiar with (I think she recognized that I probably had an inaccurate picture of seco in my head when I heard it described as “beef stew”, and she was right haha). The pop/soda is fountain, not can, so there are refills. The atmosphere was nice; the booths and tables are not too crowded together, and the music is an interesting blend of Spanish- and English language songs. I’ll definitely be back to try more food.

    The food was excellent and the service was great 😊! I catered food for a party 19 people. The lady Edith that took my order was very helpful and provided my with multiple options. I ordered seco de carne (2 trays) chaufa de pollo 1 tray, papa a la huancaina full tray, and tallarines saltados (vegetarian ) . The seco de carne cake with salsa criolla and white beans! I picked it up 4 days after I placed the order and it was warm and ready for me. My crowed was delighted and everybody said the taste was delicious. Real Peruvians also tasted it and said it was legit! One of the m said that the salsa criolla was the best and could eat it with anything. Thanks so much!

    Ive been here twice and both times we have been welcomed so warmly by our server. She patiently explains what the food contains. This is my first experience eating Peruvian food so I cant speak on its authenticity but I will say that the food is DELICIOUS! Tastes fresh and seasoned just right! Anytime Im in the area this will always be one of my top choices to dine in.

    The food was amazing, I ordered ceviche mixto and anticucho and it was delicious. They even have live music on Saturday nights which I love listening to. Stuff was friendly 100% recommend best Peruvian restaurant on the area.

    The fast service and friendly staff, the clean place and the dishes offered to your liking if you want some variation such more or less spicy, drinks of your choice such as Concordia, Inka kola and kola inglesa. The fresh and very pleasant mixed ceviche the jalea with a good flavor. I will come back again.

    The menu truly has a very authentic feel and fresh ingredients. I could not be more pleased with their menu. My family loves to eat here on Friday nights where mood is set right, with friendly staff and live singer! He’s absolutely amazing! You must check it out.

    The food is good, I've been coming her for over 10 years, back then it was strickly Peruvian. But now they also have El Salvadoran dishes as well. My favorite item is the lomo saltado. I have posted a picture of it. They also specialize in rotisserie chicken which is good as well. I prefer carryout because I don't understand Univison channel on there TV or like soccer playing on TV. If it doesn't bother you then dinning in isn't bad.

    The Lomo Saltado was okay. They should invest more money on utensils, cups, and plates for the price their meals cost. They need to work better on welcoming the guest.

    This was surprisingly a great stop over to get something for dinner. I had come here once before in the early afternoon, but they were closed. I was kind of disappointed about it because the sign said they were open, but it turns out after speaking with the staff - it was because of a grand re-opening that was planned. Good thing because my review on that day works have been 1-star, but I made an effort to check out the story and I'm glad I did. The Pollo Intl Restaurant is definitely a hidden gem. The restaurant is relatively small and if you take into account the COVID-19 regulations it is even smaller. However, the restaurant is doing fine from what I understand and customers are pleased to eat in our take out their orders. I decided to dine in and snow the restaurant's atmosphere, staff and of course, the food. I was relatively under the weather and I really needed a pick me up and I wasn't disappointed at all. I ordered the Pollo Maleniza, which is breaded chicken with white rice and black beans. When the order arrived, I thought I was eating for two, it was that much food that I received. Mind you, they were unaware I was reviewing this location. But the amount of food was awesome, I was even offered chips and salsa. I told Jose, my waiter, thank you, but what I have now will fill me up. He laughed, but I wasn't kidding. Check out the pictures and you'll agree, the amount of food was quite a bit. In any case, I began eating and the flavor of the chicken, the entire meal was good. No disappointment in flavor. Do yourselves a favor, go to the Sugarland Community Plaza in Sterling and give the a try, but be warned it is pricy, but it week satisfy the pallad. So it's off Route 7, across from the Chevrolet dealership towards the left of the entrance. Enjoy, I did.

    Very disappointed to come home and see the sauces I paid extra on were literally all watered down. I understand restaurants do this but these were literally all water, zero consistency.

    If you're White they'll treat you different, they definitely take care of Spanish speaking people first.

  • 3/5 Michael S. 2 years ago on Google
    Normally this place merits a 4-5 star review. Great food and decent pricing. Service is good too. However, our last experience wasn't positive. We ordered takeout on Saturday and found the lomo saltado dry and the Papa a la huancaína was not well made. I can't say exactly what was wrong, but something was definitely missing. Our other experiences have been positive. So it might be that the quality dips on Saturdays because it's busy. This is usually our go to for Peruvian food but we might need to limit it to just weekday orders.

    Simply delicious! Diverse menu, everything I've tried I've liked. Very friendly, live music on Friday and Saturday night.

    My Dad wanted to eat some Peruvian food so we get there and order take out. The worker tells us to wait 15 minutes. We wait past 15 minutes and then we are told that it was almost ready to come out. We wait another 10 minutes for this food "about to come out". Finally we see this man about to leave the restaurant with his takeout food, when the worker goes up to him to say that it was the wrong food and it was actually meant for us. Very unorganized and unprofessional, I doubt I'll come back since I don't like it when people waste my time.
