I rarely come here but the past times I have, they were pleasant and food was amazing, its been a while since I came here and decided to go today anyways the main thing was the food, the chicken was salty and so was the green onions, is like they dipped it in salt and also the chicken looked small, the pieces, and back then they were more of decent bigger size so I dont know if they changing stuff up but its genuinely getting worse. Not sure if I'll come back again.

I have been driving past this restaurant for over 7 years and finally gave it a chance today. I wanted to see if their pollo asado was the same as the one we eat in Colombia or if it was more like the Costco one (nothing wrong with Costco but the flavor is different) any way, I was surprised that they not only sell pollo asado but other meals as well.
I was NOT a fan of the menu display though because they have some screens where the menu changes every second, literally so it's quite difficult to choose and make decisions. I will suggest they add a few more seconds to it so it is easy to read (I'm not even old to say I can't read fast enough)
Other than that, the whole is $24 but if you want sides is $27 so I decided to take the whole meal and give it a try. I think $24 is a bit steep for one whole chicken only ($15 or $18 would be more reasonable in my opinion).
Now let's talk bout flavor: if you are Colombian and miss Pollo Asado in Sundays then you will be HAPPY to know this chicken taste the same! A whole pack of Tortillas El Milagro were added as well.
Overall, I will definitely come back when I'm craving some pollo asado. The service was very good and the place looked clean. May I add I came for a take out and it was ready within minutes so it is a wonderful place of you are running late with Lunch or dinner to get take out from.
Also I did notice they sell chicken for events and you can even buy 5 to 100 of them 😅 I never saw advertisement like that but oh well, good to know.

Their whole chicken dinner is great and a great price! One meal will feed my hungry crew of 4 guys no problem!

I have been driving past this place for over 5 years now and always notice the flashy board . Me and my wife always make fun of the long name and always thought we would eat here.
The day finally came when I decided to give this place a try. I picked a chicken burrito from drive through.
Burrito comprised of just lettuce, onions, bell peppers and tons of meat with couple of sauces. Rice and beans come on the side. Since we have just meat in the burrito it makes it very dry after a while.
Again is burrito is not bad but not for my liking. I like to have a complete burrito with rice , beans etc along with the meat. Very good Burrito for people who like a lot meat in the burrito.
Will I buy it again ? Probably Not.

I say that roasted chicken is very good throughout the fellowship and around it, and very rich, savor, not very expensive.

Chicken was great, prices were good. I'll be back.
The food is fantastic. I don't speak espanol so it was a little challenging but worth it. The chicken is awesome, tacos delish.

Great place for lunch special !!! Can't go wrong with a torta, side order of rice and beans and a drink... all for about $10!!! 😋
the person at the checkout taking the order doesn't understand English! Is it like when you work in the USA? When you order, they always put something completely different from what you order! Out of 10 times I ordered from you, 1 time they put everything I ordered. Even if you write on a piece of paper what you want, they still put something wrong

Best burrito I have had in a long time. Same for the steak tacos, which were overloaded with beef. Quick service.

Enjoy big tacos and salsas. The huge chicken sculpture and orange color scheme are festive. Counter service was fast.
