Marcela's Chicken

I used to buy chicken and vegetable mix here but yesterday after taking the take out food and tried to eat it. The vegetables has steel brush on it,good I wasn't able to swallow it. And good it my kids didnt ate any vegetables. And the chicken wasnt fully cook the inside was still raw....Not gonna buy from this place anymore..

I have always gone to Marcela's for their Peruvian Chicken, when I am not in the mood to cook dinner. Their Peruvian Chicken is 10/10!!!! However, today, I was in the mood for breakfast, happened to be in the area, and decided to order to Breakfast Special, which came with 2 pieces of steak, 2 fried eggs, rice and beans, refried beans, avocado, plantains, and la crema, and tortillas for $20! All I am going to say is if you are ever in temple hills, by the bowling alley, please stop by Marcela's, you will not be disappointed! Fyi, do not mind my picture, lol. As soon as I ordered my food for Togo, it smelled so good, I had to take a couple of bites in the car! However, the portions were very generous!

I order tho DoorDash app to get a Soup, the the delivery person came to me I immediately open my food and when I was trying to get it to a bowl I saw these piece of meet which concerned me because usually when I has ordered I get like 2 good Pieces which it didn’t bother me that much, but when I saw the meet they put I was mad because I spend like almost $20 for that food just to get fat on it and not being able to eat it. So I has to get from my work just to go to the restaurant and complain about cuz there’s was no way I was paying that mucho of money for the food plus the rice portion they put I barely has rice on it. So if you wanna save money don’t order soups in there and always make sure you see what you got.

Marcela’s used to be a go-to spot for our classic “No Cook Fridays” before the world turned upside down. After a bit of a hiatus, I recently made my way back—and I’m happy to report that the quality hasn’t skipped a beat. The pride in the food is still front and center, and every dish feels like it’s made with intention. No matter what you order, you’re in good hands. Marcela’s is officially back in the rotation, and it’s holding strong as a top pick for reliably great food.

Talk about waiting for 40-50 minutes for a family of 5 if your the patient type then you’ll be fine but what really got my eye is we got there and not much people were there then while we waited more and more people came and there food kept coming and coming and all I got to say in my language is “ qué se ponga las pilas y deja con sus mamadas”
