Huacatay is the best Peruvian chicken restaurant in D.C. I have traveled to Peru and have many Peruvian friends and I can definitely confirm that they are the real deal. Their chicken rub is delicious and their rice and beans are on point. They have a variety of sauces. I'm so glad my husband found this place because it has become one of our favorites in our take/out eat/out rotation. Service is great/fast and the people who work there are always pleasant.
I've been to this place 4 times now since their soft opening. The dine in sitting is comfortable. The food is hot and very fresh. The staff is awesome. Very sweet and inviting. If you're in neighborhood I encourage you to stop by. You won't regret it.
The interior is sleek and modern. Service is fast and friendly. The authentic food reminds me of my Peruvian upbringing. They've introduced some new salads and desserts on the menu which taste out of this world. This small restaurant has tremendous promise with big flavors--can't wait to watch it flourish by introducing so many people to the wonderful cuisine that is Peruvian food. �

Love the flavor of the chicken, just the right seasoing on everything.
Yummy neighborhood Peruvian restaurant. The chicken was tender and very tasty. Yucca fries are my fav. The plantain and black beans on the side were great. Green sauce is a must!
This place was fantastic!! Food was amazing- flavorful, beautiful, and good size portions. The place was clean and staff was friendly. We ate here just before the Van Gogh experience, it was a short walk and made the trip was even better because of our lunch!!
Had dined in here right before our Van Gogh Immersive Experience, which was on the other side of the street from this restaurant. The food was flavorful and reasonably priced, the place was clean and service was decent.
Hidden gem. Crazy delicious. Well worth the money. Try the passion fruit juice.
My homegirl said "Dat chicken so good tho!"
Wow— don’t let the low key entrance fool you!
The food was delicious, very flavorful, and hardy portions. The chicken was juicy and perfectly crispy. The yuca and plantains were fresh. We even had left overs to take home!
Order at the counter and they’ll bring it to your table on paper plates and with plastic silverware.

We love the flavor of this Peruvian chicken. It falls off the bone and the sauces are a delicious compliment. The green beans and yucca fries are also delicious. They have fast delivery and great prices.
Since moving to DC I have been in search of a Peruvian spot. Came across this one on Yelp and I was not disappoint. I highly recommend their Pollo a la Brasa and the Lomo Saltado. Don't miss out on this hidden gem.
Stopped here for lunch after seeing Google reviews. It was ah-maz-ing! The staff were so nice and helpful to me and my kids and the food was just phenomenal. Try it— you won’t be disappointed.
