Food is good but after ordering online and getting the wrong items I will strongly reconsider in the future. Also, no one picks up the phone during peak times sadly.

Always love the chicken. Got a quesadilla last trip and was surprised how good it was too. Reliably good and friendly staff.

We were in town visiting and stumbled upon this restaurant. We ordered a whole chicken meal combo that comes with rice, beans and torrillas so delicious. The chips and salsa were on point as well. If you like heat there's grilled jalapenos. I have no complaints authentic Mexican food full of flavor and loaded. If ever in the area will come back.

WOW HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! My bf and I shared the half chicken combo which comes with rice, beans, tortillas, and a grilled onion and this was more than enough food for the both of us. This is one of the best chicken spots I ever had hands down.
Service was great and quick and it's a very casual spot! We were one our way to Big Sur and we got recommended by this spot from someone back in LA so we had to make the stop and it was completely worth it. Ready to make the trip back to order this again

It's a small narrow place with a few tables, and you order at the counter, but the chicken is great. You can get it with rice, beans, tortillas, roasted onions and jalapenos plus salsa. You can also get it in a burrito. It's all very authentic.

This place has the most tastiest pollo asado burrito I have ever had. The chicken is so moist and juicy and the rest of the ingredients (guacamole, sour cream, rice and beans) complement it so well. The dark red salsa is so good and also goes well with the burrito. The burrito is a big size and worth the $15. We also got the carne asada burrito to try it but we definitely liked the chicken one best which makes sense since this place focuses on grilled chicken. The chips are complimentary and fresh, crunchy and yummy. We also got the horchata agua Fresca and it was good. This will be our go to place for burritos when we are in the area for sure.

This is the best grilled chicken on the Monterey Peninsula

This food was so incredible I couldn't put it down and came back for more. The chicken is rich with fantastic flavor and the food is wood burned to perfection. Highly recommend if you are looking for something amazing. If I'm in the area I absolutely will come again!
