San Fernando's Roasted Peruvian Chicken

Come to this no-frills restaurant for authentic Peruvian cuisine! My Peruvian friends give this restaurant the stamp of approval for its authenticity and variety. Portions are large. Ceviche and roasted chicken are highlights of the menu. They also make their own canchitas (cracked corn). The dining room is large and airy, in a converted car showroom. There is usually a Peruvian version of MTV on in the background. Servers are friendly and knowledgeable about the dishes.

It has been 10 or 11 years that I havent been to Lima, Peru which was thee 1st time I have ever ever tried/tasted Inca Cola (I was in heaven when I saw it). The chicken waa just as good as it was down south and OMG the 3 sauces (green, white, red) is just like it was back in Peru. Sad thing is I dont live in Seattle (here on business) and ONLY wish they had one back in Texas. But on next trip here to Seattle, best believe i'll be here. Con: parking space is VERY limited parking, beat to get a pick up. But to me, be worth the wait. Feels good to get that Peru taste again.

I tried the Jalea, and it was the best. Also, I tried the rotisserie chicken, and it was quite cold, and the flavor is quite different from Peru, I have the feeling the guys working in the kitchen are not from Peru and maybe thats the reason it doesn't taste authentic Peruvian food. Overall, the service was the best. The server was always very courteous and polite, she deserve 5 starts.

After visiting a few times, I can attest that this restaurant is amazing. Very friendly employees. The menu offers a very good variety of dishes from Perú. The chaufa rice (with beef or chicken) is incredible. The perfect ratio of meat to rice with quite a few veggies and also ham (in case you don't eat it). They are fast, courteous, and their rotisserie chicken is definitely an item to return for...

There's something familiar about the restaurant even though it might be your first time visiting. That's the care and love they pour into their food. 💕 I tried what the locals come here for, in what they do best... And that's their chicken! I ordered the quarter leg meal, but in hindsight it should have been the half portion since it was so good! 😄 The three assortment of sauces brought was a delight, be sure to try them! To pair with the meal, the waitress recommended their mango juice. It was such a perfect combination. 🥭 Thank you San Fernando Roasted Chicken for a delicious Peruvian experience! I'm looking forward to visiting again, perhaps with some friends to help me enjoy the great food! 🐔
