Best pollo a la brasa?

Who has the best pollo a la brasa in the Boston area? I've heard that Rincon Limeno and Machu Picchu: Pollos a la brasa are very good. How does their chicken compare?

  1. I liked the chicken at Rincon Limeno better, but the yucca better at Machu Picchu. Chicha morada was equally delicious at each. Rincon Limeno also has incredibly delicious alfajores.

    1. One of our crew swears by El Chalan's. Tho' we didn't have any last Sat. at Jalisco, their plump birds on the rotis looked good. Believe all these places also include sides & sauces.

        1. i love rincon limeno, but my colombian friend and her peruvian husband prefer chalan for the chicken and rincon limeno for the ceviche.

            1. I don't eat this often so I can't say it's best compared to others, but really enjoyed the pollo a la brasa at the informal chicken place owned by the same folks at Machu PIcchu - I think called Machu Picchu Charcoal Chicken & Grill.

                1. el chalan in east boston and machu picchu charcoal chicken and grill in somerville
