I have always had a good experience here, but my recent visit was exceptional! We typically have sushi but decided on hibachi. Being gluten free my food was cooked in the kitchen and made with GF soy sauce. Later upon learning I had a shellfish allergy the server made beeline for the kitchen to insure there was no cross contamination. Which was my fault I should have led with that. The server also warned me each item that contained wheat. Those being the ginger dressing (substituted for ranch) and the miso soup had a bit of soy sauce. Everyone in my party had a great time, but we were all so impressed by the car and attention to detail from the staff. Wish I had caught there names but fantastic experience overall. 10/10 would recommend!
An good casual chicken restaurant in Charlotte area
Viva Chicken is a restaurant chain specializing in Peruvian cuisine, with several locations in North Carolina. The atmosphere at Viva Chicken is casual with a clean design of concrete floors, open kitchen, and bright colors that gives it a welcoming ambiance. The restaurant was very open and clean and had seating areas inside and out. The menu caters to a variety of dietary preferences, offering gluten-free and vegetarian options, along with traditional Peruvian staples like the popular Inca Cola and flavorful aji sauces. They give good sized portions and the prices are reasonable for the quality of food. You order at the counter and they give you a number to put on your table. Service was fast and friendly. We told them we were first-time visitors and they helped us to pick out some good choices. I got a bbq sandwich and my partner got a salad with chicken. It was made with their signature rotisserie chicken, marinated in Peruvian spices and cooked on a charcoal grill. The chicken was tender and flavorful, but was a little spicy for me. I loved their sweet potato french fries. Overall, it was a pleasant eating experience that I would recommend that others try if you like Peruvian spice.
Delicious food and excellent service... server was very knowledgeable about the gluten-free options for me. Great value and the food is extremely filling.
