Arlington's signature dish- marinated whole chickens roasted over a charcoal rotisserie (not spicy). A must-try, along with some fried yucca (starchy vegetable like a potato). The cooked spinach is really tasty too. Pro-tip- they will always try to give you a platter/combo. If you like, just order the size chicken you want and ask for the specific sides you want in small/large.
