I'm happy with the quality which is really important to me.I definitely can recommend this place!“

“Our first time ever Trying the Vietnamese food! One word ; THE BEST!!“

“Really good Peruvian Food we had the whole chicken 2 of them and 3 Lomo saltados with rice n beans homemade flour tortillas nd all the sauces they had were really good. Delicious grub..“

“People say this spot has some of the best fast food fried chicken. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their 4 piece meal with half fried and roasted chicken, beans, plantains, and tortillas. Yall know im a bean fiend and these beans were smooth, savory, and flavorful. The plantains were sweet, soft, caramalized, and a bit tart? Not really for me. The roasted chicken was super savory, flavorful, juicy, and actually really yummy. The fried chicken was perfectly crispity crunchy and just as flavorful and juicy. Pro tip is to make a taco using the corn tortilla with all the yummy ingredients. This place is actually pretty good.

4 pc meal $16.30 before tax“

“One of the few places to get grilled chicken, but with all the people working inside still simple orders and requests are wrong. Always check your bag.
4/2023 update. Grilled is gone ? best service was fast, and food was hot! Do u have a tip jar!“

“Su variado menú hace que uno guste de sus ricos y exquisitos platillos, con un toque y sabor casero, que lo hace sentir familiar.“

“this is, hands down, some of the most interesting and delicious fusion food you’ll try. Anything they put together is thoughtful, layered and full of nuance. get the sauce sampler packs; and try everything on the menu; but the birria is to die for.

It’s so affordable, too; honestly if I could eat here every day, I would.“

“Fabulous chicken Sando!!! Absolutely delicious. Everyone is ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY. I try and go as often as I can. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“AMAZING!! THE BEST PLACE IN SOUTH EL MONTE!! TRY THE LOMO SALTADO ANDA THE TIKI FRIES“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jose D provided excellent service! Even though it was busy, he stayed friendly, quick, and efficient the whole time. He got my order right, kept things moving, and had a great attitude.

It’s not always easy to find that kind of service in fast food, but Jose really stood out. I appreciate the great experience!“

“Decent foods that make you feel like you’re eating healthy for the day. Fresh juices/drinks.“

“Went in late at night on Sunday 7/13. Dominic was front cashier. Straight up and serious, not in a bad way but a “Get the job done” typa guy. Only downside was they had powered off the shake machine early so no shakes available. Other than that, they had everything else available! Solid location.“

“They have really great flavor for their chicken. Their sauce is top notch. I am not a fan of thousand island but their sauce is really good! I love that it doesn't have pickles. Oh and the seasoning for their fries! Delicious and mouth watering flavors! Their bread is the perfect softness and there is enough chicken for every bite! Even the coleslaw they use taste great! Again, not a fan of coleslaw but theirs is a subtle flavor that just complement the slider sandwich.
I am a big wuss when it comes to spicy food but even their no spice selection is loaded with flavor!“

“The lamb gyros are the best things ever. 😊“

“Hidden Gem in Pasadena! Very Yum!“

“The chicken tasted the same from when I was a kid. It’s been over 20 years and they haven’t changed. When I walked in and saw the wooden orange chairs, all I could do was nod my head up and down thinking “ yuuuup this is how I remember it” It was a pretty cool moment and an AWESOME TREAT🍗🍗🍗❣️❣️❣️I’ve gone 2 Sunday’s in a row, my Pioneer Chicken craving has been accomplished👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾“

“Chicken is tasty. My only question is why you can only have one flavor per order? We would have spent $60 for the large order to try four flavors. Were told that's impossible. Hello? Even WingStop is capable of delivering multiple flavors in one order.“

“Came in as it was my first time Alissa took my order and she was amazing and had great customer service she was very helpful as it was my first time here she made it a great experience. Very clean restaurant and food was really good and fresh. Will be coming back“

“best chicken ever tender ,juicy crunchy! mmm!“

“Not cheap, but you will get what you pay for. My Thanksgiving, Prime ribs are always from this place. This Thanksgiving was almost 41 lbs. USDA prime.“

“Can’t believe I waited this long to try this place!!!

I finally gave this place a try and got their top loaded fries regular size which came with six chicken bites. It was more than enough for me.

The sauce and balance of flavor, sweet, sour spicy, salty, tangy all just blended so well together. The coleslaw on top of the fries was an excellent touch. The chicken was incredibly juicy too.

Food was prepped before estimated time. Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly.“

“Great food priced right! One of our favorites places to eat at’“

“The service was COMPLETELY unacceptable. An employee was rude, speaking in a language I can’t recognize and started yelling at me simply because I didn't understand what she was trying to say. Why get angry and keep screaming when customers don't understand? This business is located in LA—if an obvious communication barrier happens, staff should try to bridge it instead of continuing to yell in the same language at a confused customer. I can't believe I was treated this way. Do we now need to learn EVERY LANGUAGE ON EARTH just to get basic service?“

“Our food was exceptionally delicious! Wonderful flavors and delicious cucumber mint agua fresca too! Also fun, cozy atmosphere inside too. You can tell when you’re there it’s a very popular eatery, and for good reason! I’ve been there twice in as many weeks and I can’t wait to go again! 😁“

“The best quality meat 🍖 👍“

“I have been coming here for over a year
2-3x week . Adriana y Adela always treat me great . Greet me by name and prepare my food amazing . I appreciate how clean they keep the restaurant and their energy they bring to this restaurant.“

“It's located next to Mi Pulgarcito Pupiseria Salvadoreña and near GS Ethiopian Cafe. I had went to this plaza for another restaurant but they closed already for lunch. I decided to try this grilled chicken place, reminds me of Juan Pollo or El Pollo Loco. It seems family owned with a young teen taking my order.

I chose to try the 16 piece family special with half spicy and regular chicken ($44.99) which came with 4 large sides, tortillas and salsa. I chose their macaroni salad, potato salad, rice, and beans. I got a lunch special for myself that came with a can of soda. The seasoning on the chicken was good, the spicy chicken had a good heat. The skin was crispy and the chicken was moist. My family did not like the sides of macaroni and potato salad.

The staff was nice and the wait time was not long.“

“Such a great hospitality! During this difficult times I Loved the fact that today they were so special with the costumers and shared a fresh cut 🌹.“

“The fried chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, absolutely delicious! The burger is packed with flavor, with a thick and juicy patty and soft bun. Generous portions, well-packaged, and delivered quickly. Very satisfied and will definitely order again! 好吃 汉堡好大啊“

“I haven’t been there in years but tonight we decided to go tonight it did not disappoint. The chicken is yummy.“

“I love the service and the food . My husband and I enjoyed it so much 🤍🤍🤍🤍🥲😋

Service was 100%

Super clean

Maybe turn off 1 of the 4 tvs and lower the music . I kind of had to be loud in order to hear my husband .“

“*YUM* is all I have to say!! We adore this place, and friends who have moved away always beg to go here for chicken when they come home to visit. The chicken falls off the bone, their fried tofu is to die for! ������. You cannot go wrong here! But pay attention to their hours. They close mid-day for a few hours.“

“This place is truly a hidden gem. The chicken is always so flavorful, and their salsa never misses! it’s consistently delicious every single time. Honestly, it beats a lot of the big chain spots. We love coming here, and the prices are very reasonable. Portions are generous too, we almost always leave with leftovers for the next day.“

“I absolutely love the flavor of this chicken. Great customizable heat. I've ordered both the mild and the medium and both are delicious. Tiny little hole in the wall so I always get the order to go. My only issue is the chicken portion seems to keep getting a tad smaller with each visit. Probably more a sign of the times than an actual complaint.“

“Their food is amazing. It’s so delicious!!Everything I tried has not disappointed me.Their fries and wings had so much flavor and were crispy. The pho soup was just perfect that you didn’t even have to add anything else to give it flavor so you can enjoy it just like that.“

“The chicken was freshly prepared with a light, crispy batter. I must admit I would've liked a bit more seasoning on it. My husband wished that there would've been an onion and pickle option for his sandwich, but the hot sauce helped. The place was very clean and well stocked... including the bathroom🎉. My server was kind and helpful... which I needed since I'd never been there.“

“chicken tortilla soup very good“

“Some of the best, mouth watering rotisserie chicken i have ever had. Always gotta get it with fries, beans and rice! No other ways about it. You want some authentic Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa? Toyitos in downey is exactly what you're looking for. They also got excellent alfajores and 2 liter Inca Cola. If you're looking for a good family meal place and you want some delicious chicken, give this place top priority. Before you ask, yes they give you just dark meat if you ask...I'm pretty sure it's a bit extra though. Anyways Toyitos is fuego. 9.5/10
Only took a point 5 off because whenever I finish I ALWAYS WANT MORE and that's not good for my wallet...or my health lol“

“muy bien, lo recomiendo es buena. sólo que hay una que me atendió se puso un poco prepotente pero salió bien“

“The service was absolutely quick and the food was amazing“

“This fried chicken place tastes much better than the one next door, and the food comes out quickly. They have many flavors for the chicken wings, especially the garlic soy sauce, which I absolutely love. The cashier is also very friendly. Very good.“

“Been coming here for the last few months, wish I would of know about this place sooner. Great customer service, FAST Service, great attitude.

- Potato Salad: BEST I EVER HAD
- Chicken Seasoning 10/10
- Coleslaw 10/10
- Beans 10/10
- Chips / Pico de Gallo 10/10

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE“

“The food here is delicious 🤤 Definitely a must try for anyone who loves Nashville hot chicken sandwiches“

“This spot sells mesquite grilled chicken as a street stall. Prices are reasonable and their seasoning is SO good. Very good street food.

their chicken was charred and cooked perfectly, still juicy with each bite.

Included is: Grilled peppers, some salsa which was light and easy to dip, grilled tortillas, pickled peppers and onions, Spanish rice, and some of the best beans I've had. Beans were smoky sweet and flavorful with chicharron inside.

Would come back for some bomb grilled chicken that's for sure!

Entire chicken and all the sides were only $23. Cash or zelle accepted

Parking: Near the food4less“

“I finally got to check this place out. I've been wanting to go since it opened.

I got the chicken and rice meal. It was really good! The only thing I would do different is ask if they could heat up my chicken. I was not expecting cold chicken with warm rice.

I got takeout to eat in my car but waited till I got home so I could warm up the chicken. It was much better. I loved the dressing and exhaustion those onions. Absolute perfection.

Staff was very friendly. The establishment is super clean. They were still baking cookies at 8:00 p.m. which is great for those who love an evening snack!“

“Surprisingly it be actually pretty good 😩“

“Absolutely amazing. After a disappoint go at the Mancoras peruivian cuisine on main, I found this place in walking distance. Gave it a shot and the chicken is amazing. The #1 recommendation is have is the #1 Chicken sandwich (white or dark meat) it's by far the best chicken sandwich I've had. Easily blowing Raising Canes and all other chicken sandwich establishments out of the park. The balance between each ingredient was spot on and I could easily devour multiple of these in one sitting due to how good it is. 100% recommend this place.

Side note, for any people planning to eat here. Order ahead of time (sometimes it can take 30+ minutes) and avoid the wraps, go for the chicken on the bun instead. It's vastly superior because the wraps seem to be poorly constructed. The wraps seem to be overflowing with sauce which makes the wrap soft and weak so its, hard to hold let alone eat, without it breaking apart in your hands“
