Entree’s and Peruvian dishes give local residents a new cuisine options.  Seafood Dishes, Lomo Saltado, Jalea, Cau Cau Con, BBQ Ribs, Pepper Steak and Fish of the Day cooked Peruvian Style can all be ordered at El Pollo III.

Of course, it’s not the first Peruvian chicken place in the area. We were delighted to stumble upon La Granja Peruana back in April. But – it’s Peruvian food! Widely considered to be one of the best and most diverse cuisines in the world, with influences from China, France, Italy, Spain and native cooking, it’s the more the merrier when it comes to comida Peruana.

Welcome to the neighborhood, El Pollo. Looking forward to stopping in.
