About this spot
Astoria Pollos delivers the authentic, smoky flavor of traditional Peruvian pollo a la brasa right here in Santa Ana, where the meat is roasted over wood fires until it's tender enough to fall off the bone. The table is set with fresh bread for dipping into the rich, savory juices that collect at the bottom of the roasting pan, and you'll find sides like crispy fries and creamy mashed potatoes waiting to soak up every drop.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Order a 'media' (half) chicken if you want to share a family-style meal with friends or save room for dessert.
- Ask for extra salt on your meat before it hits the table, as Peruvian roast chicken is often served slightly less salty than Western palates expect.
- Save space for a slice of fresh guava cake or flan, which are the perfect sweet finish to this hearty main course.
