Pollos is a great place for a good breakfast/brunch. There's never a long line because it's not a fancy brunch place. You get to sit down immediately instead of waiting an hour
They do make great omelettes and scrambled eggs. Prices are good too.

Employees and service are great, but the food leaves a lot to be desired. The chicken and rice are obviously microwaved. The salad had rotting iceberg lettuce in it. The rice was so burnt and overdone it was crunchy. The chicken was hard to eat and I nearly choked. Overpriced ($14 for this) for what you're given, definitely not fresh.

I went to Pollo because I always liked the food. I was disappointed at the $16.00 burrito. I mean it might have been worth it if the flavor was good. I didn't taste cilantro or salsa. There were alot of beans and rice. Very little guacamole. The service was good. It was only me the owner the cook and another young lady. It was very quiet.

Breakfast burrito was extremely mid, lacked flavor and generally didn’t meet expectations.
Location is nice, it is right in the downtown of Berkeley. But the old guy is quite arrogant and food was far from healthy and low fat and gosh, I have never seen smaller portions in my life (maybe that’s the low fat part with diet ….)

Always friendly and tasty! OP is longtime family owned.plus same grill man who always say hi to me, a customer for 20 years. I usually go for the great gyro (extra tzatziki!), BLTs and fresh lemonade, burritos, but all is fresh and made to order.

i got my food to go. my chips were so stale, like unbelievably stale. idk how they found such stale chips to give me. i got a beef burrito, and it was cold inside. like not just the sour cream and guac, the rice, the tortilla, the meat. the whole inside was cold and cheese wasnt even melted fully. idk what the vibes are here and how some people get great meals and some don't. wouldnt go back here again if im just going to be given bad food :-/ for a $16 burrito, really upsetting and waste of my money

The chicken here is so good. Nice char on the outside but juicy, not dry on the inside. Comes with 2 sides; it's a great bargain for a nice filling meal.
If you're in the mood for breakfast, they have it all day.
Added bonus is that the owner is a super nice guy.
Breakfast sandwhiches that remind me of the east coast (as long as you add bacon) and home fries that satisfy the soul. Friendly service from the owner who clearly cares about running a solid business.

Great food and location, good prices and great owner!
I wish the portions were slightly bigger, but everything else was great! Big fan of fresh squeezed orange juice.
