    I can’t say enough good things about this place, the chef is amazing and I have gone here for almost 10 years. There’s no place that can beat the quality and prices, the absolute best chicken and they give you 4 taquitos instead of 3. I always recommend stopping here when you’re in the area, there’s a reason it’s been there for years!

    We order take-out here although there are some tables on a patio. My wife and I order the half-chicken combo: half a chicken, beans and rice with tortillas. The chicken is cooked over a grill and is seasoned well. They offer garlic lemon butter and seasoned salt over the chicken also. I recommend getting that. The pico is very average. Affordable (<$20) and tasty!

    My wife and I moved out of southern California 9 years ago and the only thing we really miss, besides family is the Mexican food! This local, no frills spot really hits the mark. The food is on point and meets all our breakfast, lunch and dinner needs! If you’re in the area it’s worth a stop for take out or dinning in the patio area!

    This Place is freaking BOMB!!! Thier chicken is so good! I ordered the Super Chicken Burrito omfg it was the best! Beans were actually tasty and didn't smell like farts! Rice was flavorful and soft! Chicken was cooked well and it's real chicken not frozen ! And best part for me was it has guacamole!!!! I have never eaten a burrito that fast in my life! Usually I have a couple bites finish it later butnot that day! My bf got the chicken plate with 2 chicken breast one was the garlic chicken and I think the other was thier traditional choice , it came with beans, rice, tortillas of your choice and charred jalapeño peppers! Thier salsa was the best imagine Chipotles side of hot was just a bit less spicy! That is what this was like! It was the perfect amount of spice to were it didn't overpower the rest of the flavors but gave that perfect kick! they have a nice little seating area outside nothing too fancy but relaxing! And the price wasn't bad for the sizing of food! I wish I lived closer so I could go more often lol you definitely gotta come by and try it out! Clean! Good food! Nice service! They speak English and Spanish so no worries for anyone there not being able to understand you! Next time I wanna try the chicken Quesadilla also comes with guacamole in it!!! Update: chicken quesadilla was good! Huge too lol and saw one of the cutest customers yet! Kitty girl over here waiting for her food and cuddles ! #purrty9

    Basically ate here every single day for a week straight while my boyfriend and I were on vacation visiting from Indiana. The food is always fresh, hot, and fast. We've never had to wait more than 6 or 7 minutes.! The staff is very personable and attentive. We both also enjoyed the outside seating area in the shade.

    I have a soft spot for a good roast chicken. My siblings had mentioned this place to me a few times but we’re rarely in the area and with so many food options I just haven’t stopped by. Today I wanted to not only try the food but to support a small local business. The service was very fast and friendly. I got the half chicken combo which came with rice and beans. The chicken had a lemon garlic sauce on it that was super yummy. The chicken was fall off the bone. Everything was very delicious. This might be my new favorite roast chicken spot. Can’t wait to come back again soon.

    Stood up to the name, it really is some Super Pollo. Chill atmosphere with outdoor seating and fast service. Chicken was being grilled right up next to the ordering window & kitchen looked clean. I give it a tie for 1st place for the best chicken Ive ever had. Definitely will go back.
