El Pollo Real serves delicious food that is consistently fresh and well-seasoned. Their grilled chicken is a must-try, with some considering it the best on the south side. The friendly staff prepare great products, including whole chicken meals with rice, beans, guacamole, and more. The restaurant is cash-only and has a small, clean store that can feel crowded when busy. They offer special deals like buy one chicken and get half a chicken free on Tuesday and Thursday, which is a great value. The red rice is fluffy and tasty, and the beans and rice add a nice flavor to the meal. Customers often pick up their orders quickly, usually within about 10 minutes, or can order through Uber Eats. The flavor of the chicken has a unique, sazon-like taste with a charbroiled flavor that keeps people coming back.
