I had a hard time deciding on a rating. The chicken was the most flavorful delicious chicken I've ever tasted. However, there were a couple issues I had with our meal in general. First of all, we each ordered 1/4 chicken, one each of dark and white. When our meal arrived, you can imagine our surprise when we received 1/2 of a chicken breast with wing attached, and 1/2 a thigh with leg attached, NOT 1/4 of a chicken (and these are small chickens to begin with). Secondly, we ordered a taco and because I mentioned we were gf, I was charged an additional 20% because...gf ingredients are more expensive? It was a corn tortilla. The same corn tortilla served to gluten eaters. The tiny taco, which was hardly worth the $2 they normally charge, was definitely not worth the $3 we were charged. The size of the sides was also quite small (3 yuca fries and 3 plantains); normal sized portions of Cole slaw and French fries. If we were ever to visit this restaurant again, we would just order a whole chicken and take it to go. However, for $15 for just a chicken, we'd be better off buying an organic chicken for $10 and cooking it ourselves. As far as gluten, I'm very sensitive and I didn't react at all, so it seems fairly safe, in that regard.
