El Gordo has been serving authentic Peruvian food for nearly 30 years, built from our mom’s dream to share the flavors of home. What started in 1996 as a small family spot has grown into a local favor…
The food was hot plentiful and the chicken was moist flavourful and delicious. The green sauce was amazing imma order extra next time. Great alternative to fried chix. The order arrived so quick! Great experience!

El Gordo restaurant is my go to! I always the 1/2 pollo with yellow rice and side salad. The chicken is sooo good with perfectly crispy flavorful skin and juicy meat. The rice is great, too. But my absolute favorite is the side salad. Idk what magic they put in the dressing but is always so fresh and delicious. Do not sleep on this place!!

The food is good but there's no way this is a whole chicken. $33 dollars for this? Totally not worth it, this is the smallest chicken I've ever seen specially when ordering a whole chicken. I would not order again.

The Choros a La Chalaca had great flavor my
Only wish is that they would had used the authentic Peruvian corn instead of the yellow corn. The Chaufa De Camarones was delicious. I would order from here again.
