Brasa Roja Montrose — a latin american spot in Albany Park. The food tastes like it should, with no compromises. BYOB.

“Their garlic chicken is a must-have”
Chicken was dry. No napkins for to go . Overl 2 stars from me. This was the 2nd time when I ordered from here.
Been here a few times the last time the experience wasn't so good but gave it another shot this weekend.
Ok steak house with intensely charcoal-flavored products. Very Well done chicken too. Very well, well done everything.

“Oh yeah, definitely try this place.”
Oh yeah, definitely try this place. Great steak and chicken served on a sizzling plate with a variety of sides. The decor will make you feel like you have left the city for a while. This is a great little spot to try some good food. Come have a taste of Colombia.

“What a great place.”
What a great place. Delicious grilled rotisserie chicken. They give you a few sides to enjoy as well. Potatoes and fried plantains. About $15 for half a chicken and can of soda. They have a few locations. They are all tasty. Definitely will be back.

“I come here regularly for takeout and the food is satisfying.”
I come here regularly for takeout and the food is satisfying. It's a very comfortable spot; the atmosphere is especially welcoming in the winter with the flames of the rotisserie grill on. The employees are friendly and enthusiastic to recommend a dish if asked, and the food is filling and flavorful. The chicken is occasionally dry, but delicious nonetheless with a little tomatillo salsa(?). It's also worth mentioning that the prices here are generous.
