The worst thing about this succulent, perfectly seasoned golden brown chicken is that you may eat it all before you get home. You won't find better rotisserie chicken. And don't try and leave without some yellow rice and pepper sauce! You'll be sorry. One more thing. Get there before the last half hour it's open, 'cause there's no guarantee they'll be anything left!

This is sadden to say I had to actually come back to re-review this place & edit it from 5 stars to 3. I'm leaving it on 3 bc I've been coming here for plus 2yrs. &it's not like they DONT make business. But let me just tell yous; the last 3xs (recently) I've ordered from them for my family & I, the rice & chicken has been SUPER SALTY. &yes I sure did call and told them that. Guy just said he apologizes. I looooooved their food :( but I feel like since they've been super busy (like all the time), they're not caring how their cooks are coming out too salty. Very unfortunate. If they improve this, I can happily delete this and edit my review again. Not sure if I will order again from here though, unless there's a promise that there has been a new cook & the food I'll order, won't be too salty.Good luck.

Great tasty food! Excelente costumer service ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best chicken ever. Tasty food.Always busy.Thx for the service

Food was good. Chicken was banging.

Wow....what a great (and delicious) dinner/meal from this restaurant!! I honestly would go to a Columbian restaurant in Morristown for this rotisserie chicken....now that I found this place i longer have to. The chicken was so well seasoned and moist....it came with rice, beans and maduros (I only wish that the container of beans was a little bigger). I also ordered an additional side of yucca which was delicious Last but not least....the price was great too.

Best chicken in town no cap ..

Great food Great service ? love the chicken empanadas and the Roast chicken

I could see why it's called happy chicken, the chicken was happy to be turned into such a delicious meal. First time trying this place and everything had great flavor, especially the beans. The rotisserie chicken is fresh and cooked perfectly. Our to go order was ready within minutes even with a few other customers in there. Also, no trouble leaving my car outside at the empty meter while I ran in real quick. $23 and we fed a family of 4 with some leftover. Not bad! We will be back happy chicken

Love their food , that Charcoal barbecue chicken & Ribs. It's awesome not to mention they have side dishes that are amazing too.
