“love El Pollo Guapo, and especially the Newïngton Center location. delicious, very customizable bowls, friendly staff,quick and easy pick up. I've been so happy since they moved a couple blocks down from my office.5 Stars“

“food is amazing 👏 highly recommended. friendly staff. great atmosphere.“

“I hate that they slowly repeat your mobile order, even after you say no changes because you are running late for work. I'm probably the only one, but the whole point of using the mobile ordering is that I ensure my order is accurate and speeds up the process. I don't like to talk to people because of my disability, so mobile ordering has been a life saver so if someone says no changes, don't slowly read their order and ask if they would like to make any changes. Acknowledge I have already said as much as if I mattered.“

“The food was flavorful, fresh, and delicious! So delighted we trusted the reviews and popped in. Highly recommend“

“March 24, 2026. Customer service was horrible; the two ladies working up front were disrespectful, all because I asked if the order I placed went through, given how long the food was taking. To proceed with disrespect, getting my food, I was given attitude a second time after disrupting her phone time“

“the Family was just as pleasant and my chicken was ready when I walked in the door and you talking about Good 😋😋😋“

“Visited the Middletown ct restaurant. Clean , professional and outstanding southern chicken. The manger was awesome and was very friendly.“

“I think this must be a training issue because it’s new this year and happens every single time - I never get my drink. I order on the app and sit at a table. I get my food, and then they walk away. Once in awhile they bring me my drink, but usually not before I’m done with my food. This is at the least the fifth time this has happened here, maybe closer to the tenth.“

“I can’t believe we waited this long to try Rockin Chicken! It was so delicious! The family meal is priced right for an alternative to a pizza night. My picky 5 year old even cleaned his plate. Bravo 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏“

“This is the cleanest Chick-fil-A I’ve ever been to with the nicest employees. They were watering rose bushes in the parking lot…what??? They were just all so polite, even for a Chick-fil-A, and it was the end of the night. I felt like I needed to write a review!“

“I MISS THE DAYS WHEN THEY STILL SOLD POPCORN CHICKEN THERE AT KFC AND POTATO WEDGES I MISSED BUT STILL NOT A BAD FOOD PLACE FOR FAST FOOD AS FAST FAST FOOD PLACE GOES THE QUALITY TASTES GOOD STILL, THAT'S MY THOUGHTS JAKE ALAN GRAHAM! THAT'S MY NAMED!! 😄“

“Five stars for significant improvement on 8/20. Okay so, as the other reviews stated, our first experience here was less than stellar. The chicken we got was so laden with grease a few of us got really upset stomachs from eating it. It seemed like the chicken wasn't put to dry out after coming out of the fryer and went straight into the container, still dripping in fry oil. Additionally, the banana pudding we got, the bananas were completely green and hard. We wanted to try it again since the west hartford location is so good. This time when we got the chicken, it was not dripping in grease at all. The chicken was delicious! I also got the banana pudding again, and the bananas were nice and ripe, very nice pudding.

If you guys read reviews, please please please take heed of mine and multiple others and *let your chicken rest after it comes out of the fryer*. Also, never use green bananas for the pudding. Keep up the good work.“

“Honestly one of the best tasting chicken spots around. Was working across the street installing a natural service and decided to try it for lunch. The prices are good and the amount of food they give you is impressive. Everyone on the work crew loved it. Hell, it even the leftovers taste good cold the next morning lol 👍“

“I order a 4 pieces KFC meal . It was Overrall distant but the drink ( pink lemonade ) was actually kool-aid without Sugar .“
