‘Sofia’s Charcoal Chicken’ May Replace El Rancho on the Pike

Sign announcing a new restaurant on the former El Rancho Peruvian Chicken eateryA sign on the recently-closed El Rancho Peruvian Chicken restaurant (3610 Columbia Pike) suggests that a new chicken eatery may be opening there soon.

The sign touts “Sofia’s Charcoal Chicken” as “coming soon.” The restaurant will also offer pupusas, tacos, burritos, baleadas, “and much more.”

The restaurant is just down the street from a new Chipotle location.

No word yet on when the new eatery may open. Attempts to find a phone associated with the new business were unsuccessful.
