Bandera

Rotisserie:

$19 for lunch; $23 for dinner, half chicken served with tabbouleh salad

The hallmark of Bandera’s succulent rotisserie chicken is the incredible moistness retained, even in the deep recesses of the breast meat. It’s probably due to the pimento-garlic-orange juice marinade — fashioned after the Central American pollo a la brasa — and the two-day soak required. The skin, then, is soft and pliable but crisp where the apricot glaze gets caramelized.
