Used to live in Delaware, and regularly are here. Now living down south, and can't find a Peruvian place that hits as good as The Chicken House does! Still the same amazing taste and quality, and the employees are so friendly. Miss coming here

We've been here before and past experience was better than Today. The 4 stars is a overall rating. It'll be a 3 stairs just on today. I ordered the sautéed shrimp with onion and tomato on spaghetti and I wasn't too thrilled about it. It wasn't bad but looks like the spaghetti wasn't properly drained so there's a bunch of water downed soy sauce on the bottom. My wife ordered her regular hand roastisory chicken with yellow rice which was good as usual. I remember their fried rice was much better. I will stick with that next time.

Some of the best chicken ever! It came out so quick and our server was very friendly with our large party. A lot of takeout orders coming as we we sitting for dinner. They have a sweet and savory option for plantains which is neat. Their Peruvian beer was delish! We also love all the sauces they bring. Everything is amazing leftover as well.

This is my go-to catering restaurant. The chicken is tender and delicious. The yellow rice is flavorful, and the mixta salad is good. Everyone compliments the food. I will continue ordering my party food from The Chicken House.

Visiting from California for a wedding and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the ethnic food here. (Realizing we're the snobs in this situation, ha!) This is legit Peruvian. My partner traveled through Peru and I've eaten at Peruvian places in SoCal so we were happy to see it. They're only open for takeout during the pandemic and they'll reopen for in person dining sometime in 2022 they say. We ordered the chaufa, mixto ceviche, seafood soup, roast chicken, and Peruvian lager. All were delicious and fairly priced. Take it from these CA foodies, we enjoyed their food and service. I was surprisingly addicted to their chaufa and the soup portions are huge.
