"This excellently named South American joint is famous with locals for its grilled chicken in special sauce, and it’s a great choice for a Friday lunch. All you have to do is choose how much chicken you want, your side, and whether you want Tabasco or green coriander sauce. Simple as that. Although the chicken and rice isn’t pretty to look at, it’s good, and as a bonus, you’ll probably have enough left over for a sly snack later when no one’s looking." - Oliver Feldman, Jake Oliver, David Paw

I couldn’t leave this restaurant without trying their famous marinated chicken with their homemade green sauce - it was served with a salad and rice. The most disappointing part was the chicken. I thought I had better chicken at a different location. Assemheims’ chicken was alright. It was well done but it wasn’t robust with flavours. Their homemade green sauce was nice and light but it wasn’t superb. But the portion was generous for its price so it was alright

Heard a lot of good things about this sandwich place and finally got the opportunity to check it out. I went on the Thursday night before the Good Friday so there was no queue. Got one of the hot sandwiches with fried chicken in it. The portion was very decent considering it only cost £7.5 in the City. The sandwich tasted good but the chicken was a bit too dry for my liking. Will try their famous grilled chicken box next time.

Visited for lunch on a Wednesday in January. Decent queues around 1pm but moved along fairly quickly. NOTE WELL: the sandwich queue is much slower than the chicken box meal queue, probably four times slower, all things being equal. So keep that in mind if time is of the essence. I got the Cuban sandwich. It was very good, the pulled pork perhaps a touch on the sweet side but overall highly enjoyable. Service is efficient. The sandwich was £7.50, which I thought was a decent price given the quality and the fact that it’s a pretty big, hearty sandwich. I will definitely return for a takeaway lunch.

Delicious tasty food with super fast service - located very close to Moorgate and Liverpool Street station. Portions are huge, I went for the famous chicken with green sauce, veg and potatoes!

Crazy good tasting food in the city! I’m a repeat customer every time I go into the office. You may find they have a huge queue but the wait isn’t as long as it may seem! - and it’s worth the wait anyway! The chicken box is a winner every time with their delicious green sauce! Highly recommend trying them out!

I’ve eaten from here before and thought I’d drop by again. I asked for a Cuban sandwich, but on the plantain instead of bread as I’m gluten intolerant, which I told them. They looked at me like I was stupid and said no. If it were a case of a price increase for the plantain over the bread, I’d understand. If it were busy, I’d understand…..but, I was the only person in there pre 12 and also no request for extra payment was made. Clearly they want to peddle their pre made sandwiches only. Strong non return for me

I got the chicken (spicy) with salad and potatoes and green sauce for lunch! I enjoyed it. It just felt very light and clean. Not very heavy. I would get it again. It didn’t really wow me but if you’re trying to be healthy as opposed to indulgent then it’s a good choice
