“ Seriously if you want an affordable , tasty mea , come to this hidden Gem! CLEAN Bathrooms and food to die for! I'm not just saying that ! oh yeah, there corn tortillas are on Top Shelf! You will be amazed! Super Potato is always a treat but the chicken is the true deal here ”
“ Was in the mood for some Pollos Asados, so stopped by on a Tuesday evening. I usually go to some of the more popular places, but wanted to give this place a try. Since it was a Tuesday, it wasn't crowded and sat at one of the 6 tables outside near the playground. You order everything at the register inside, but they bring the food out to you. Ordered the full chicken which came with 2 rice, 2 beans, 6 tortillas, grilled onions, grilled jalapeno. Also, ordered a sausage. The young lady working the register also was bringing the food out, getting drink refills, and cleaning tables. She did a great job of doing several jobs. Food came out within 10 minutes and looked great. The chicken tasted great as it had a nice crisp char on the outside while still juicy on the inside. The sides were ok, but my main focus is the chicken at these places. The sausage was good, but I still preferred the chicken. They had 3 different salsas with varying amounts of heat that went great with the meats. Quickly went through 6 tortillas, but you can order more for next to nothing. Will definitely come back when wanting some Pollos Asados in this area. ”

Overall great experience with good food, nice laid back atmosphere, you can sit inside or outside. This will be my go to place if I want a nice grilled chicken. ”
“ Good fresh chicken and attentive staff. Tables fill up quickly for indoor seating. ”
“ They never disappoint no matter the day of time or night you walk in it’s always on point. The salsa verde is what sets everything else off. Great prices, service and food ”
“ This was the first time for us to eat at Pollos El Gallo. The building itself has character and blends in with the smokehouse restaurant. As one enters, there is playground equipment/area for the kids. Dining area capacity inside is smaller than structure appears to indicate. Outside dining at least doubles the numbers of diners the restaurant can accommodate. Since we planned to take out, as well as dine in, we ordered a full chicken which included 2 sides x 2 (16.95) and 1/2 pound of Beef Fajitas with 2 sides (18.95). Their Sides of Beans and Rice had their distinct seasoned tastes. A variety of peppers and onions laced the food tray. One (maybe all) of the peppers was too hot to handle. A slice of fried cactus added to the menu item. The food was good & tasty. Staff was nice and helpful. We enjoyed our dining experience. ”
“ Great food and great service. Can't wait to go back. ”
