I really like chicken and this location is the closest for me, but I didn't like my experiences with one of the managers. The lady is very disgusting not only with customers but with employees. Today specifically I went into the restaurant and she was in a bad mood and she also served me and spoke very badly to the girls. Every time I'm gone she's always screaming. Has very bad customer service and doesn't know how to talk to employees

Very good service and fresh food served by Daniel
Located in a shopping center, so it does not have its own parking and in times of high demand in the shopping center, it is difficult to find parking but it is free. With access for people with special abilities. Friendly staff. Good tasting food, clean place.

Food is delicious. Customer service could be better. One of the staff was refilling the jamaica (hibiscus) drink. Splattered it, and some got on me. Sucks because I was wearing a white shirt.

I'm a bit conflicted about how to write this review, and I'll explain why in a bit. Pollo Campero was originally established in Guatemala, and since I'm from Guatemala, I wanted to treat my parents to our favorite restaurant from when we used to live there. I hosted a PPV event last night and decided to visit the nearest Pollo Campero, which happened to be the one in South Gate. As you walk in, you're greeted with the enticing scent of their delicious fried chicken.
I ordered their 20-piece family meal with all fried and mixed chicken, along with mac and cheese, plantains, rice, beans as sides, and 12 empanadas. The lady at the register offered their special of four empanadas for $7 and honored it for the 12 that I ordered, which I thought was really nice of her. The total for this meal came out to be $103, which I felt was a good deal. The ambiance had the typical Pollo Campero vibe, and it was super busy on this Saturday afternoon. It took about 15 minutes for my order to be prepared, and I double-checked everything was there before heading home.
Here's where things got a bit confusing. When I unpacked my bags, I noticed that the containers for the sides didn't look like a family-size portion, meaning it didn't seem like it was meant to feed "20 people." Since I was expecting 15 people for the event, my wife ended up making some more rice, beans, and mashed potatoes.
The food itself was delicious as alway,s. My family enjoyed it so much that we didn't have any leftovers. It was our first time trying the empanadas, and they were delightful, with plenty of chicken and flavor. The sides were also flavorful, and the plantains were crunchy and sweet.
Overall, the customer service and food quality were perfect. The portion size for a family meal appears to be a corporate issue rather than a problem with this specific restaurant, so I'm giving it five stars. I'll be back again.

I recently went to eat at that place, and everything was fine until one of the waitresses came very arrogantly to tell us that they were going to close, when it was barely 8 o'clock...
It literally took me and my family out...
It was no way to say things, we didn't even finish dinner and he didn't want to bring us a box to take what we left ?
She is a thin waitress, dyed red hair and has a tattoo on her arm.!
Her service is terrible
