Our Story

A Story of Fire & Family

Born from the heart of Jordanian hospitality and the soul of Peruvian tradition, Don Poio is where time-honored techniques meet uncompromising quality.

I.

Our Mission

To bring the heart of Jordanian hospitality and the soul of Peruvian-inspired rotisserie to the world. As a local, family-run brand born in Amman, Don Poio is dedicated to the patient art of the flame. By blending traditional South American flavors with our signature 5-hour slow-cooking technique, we provide a handcrafted dining experience where every meal is a testament to time, fire, and quality.

II.

Our Vision

To become the leading slow-roasted chicken brand in the Middle East and beyond, recognized for our unwavering commitment to quality, authenticity, and the art of patient cooking. We aim to expand our family to new cities while maintaining the soul of what makes Don Poio special.

Our Core Values

Family-Run Integrity

We lead with passion, treating our guests like an extension of our own family.

100% Homemade

No industrial shortcuts. No store-bought substitutes. If it's on your plate, we made it from scratch.

The Art of Patience

We respect the time—the 48-hour marinade and the 5-hour slow-cook—required to achieve the perfect smoky flavor.

Global Ambition

Born in Jordan, inspired by Peru, and destined for the world.

"
Don Poio is a story of fire and family. We have taken the spirit of Peru and refined it with a 5-hour slow-cooking ritual that is uniquely ours.

The Artisan Fusion

Culinary Philosophy

At Don Poio, we don't just cook; we craft. Our kitchen is built on a foundation of 100% Homemade preparation and a total rejection of industrial shortcuts.

48hrs + 5hrs

The 48-Hour & 5-Hour Ritual

We invite our guests to experience a unique evolution of the Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa. We marinate our chicken for 48 hours and then slow-cook it for 5 hours over charcoal and wood.

0 Shortcuts

The "Zero Shortcut" Rule

We believe true flavor cannot be store-bought. Everything on our menu is prepared from scratch in our kitchen—from our complex demi-glacé to our fresh-cut fries and signature salsas.

Perfect Pairing

A Harmony of Flavors

We celebrate our heritage by pairing our smoky, Peruvian-style birds with Authentic Lebanese Garlic (Toum) and refreshing Tzatziki.

100% Artisanal

Handcrafted Gourmet Sides

Our commitment to quality is showcased in our Homemade Mashed Potatoes served with a velvety, Homemade Demi-glacé, alongside handcrafted Empanadas, Batata Harra, and Poutine.
