★★★★★ 5.0 John (Tensai) · Dec 2025

Newer restaurant here in Brooklyn Center, VERY clean on the inside. Stuff was very courteous and friendly. About 5 minutes from walking in to sittingndown and our food was brought to our table. Hot and fresh chicken sides was fresh and tasty. Very reasonable for price and good portions. Good chicken place for something other than KFC or Popeyes if you you are looking for a quick bite to eat.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Angel Pena Velez · Sep 2025

I wish I could say my experience was great, but it was okay at best. Staff were nice, but it’s fairly pricey for what you get. I also don’t understand corporations normalizing no drinks with meals (KFC does give you a drink btw). Chicken and fries could’ve used WAY more seasoning. Same with yuca fries, which had none. Roll could’ve used butter and was dry. Only chicken was really good honestly, but still not worth the price. Interior looked great though and staff were nice. Just wouldn’t come here again unless their food looked seasoned.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Karrisa A · Apr 2025

The line to this place was long when we went and it had been open a few weeks. Lots of Latino patrons, so this franchise must be known in the community. For me, I heard about it on social media so we headed over to try it. It's fast food but yes I did enjoy the flavor of the chicken more than American franchise chicken places. The chicken here is marinated in flavorful spices and lent some umami flavor. I'm still onthe lookout for a truly spicy chicken sandwich. Theirs isn't as spicy as they claim but we are in Minnesota... The sides weren't that good, although I did enjoy the Mexican rice. They had agua frescas and horchata which were quite good.

First time here and didn’t expect the options on the menu. Had the original crispy chicken sandwich w/ Yucca fries. I wish they were a little bit hotter, but they were still good and the chicken had me shook for a minute when I didn’t see any type of spread on the the buns but whatever the sauce that came w/ the meal did its job on the sandwich!👍🏾

★★★★☆ 4.0 Kathleen Fetterly · Apr 2025

Good food and decent value. Fast casual with good service. The Campero bowl was a nice filling lunch with decent flavor and texture, but I wish it had a lime wedge with it or something to punch up the flavor such as a southwest dressing. The 3 piece chicken plate with dark meat was fabulous, the flavor was something special. The plantains were fantastic, not too sweet. I liked the Jamaican beverage with lower calories than the Mango, but both were excellent. There is also Horchata. The cashier was kind, courteous however a little shy, but I hope he comes out of his shell a little more. I saw all walks of life come in through the door which is heartwarming. Nice place, way better than other fast food joints. With a drive through, I expect it to be hopping soon. Coleslaw is good, nice hit
