Pollo Caliente is a popular Mexican restaurant located in a Valero gas station, known for its delicious and authentic cuisine. The menu features a variety of options, including tacos, roasted chicken, and agua frescas. The food is made to order and served by a primarily Spanish-speaking staff, though some members speak English. Customers often praise the restaurant's flame-grilled chicken, which is considered the best in Austin, along with great meal deals that offer good value. The chicken and beef sandwiches are also well-liked, featuring crispy and juicy chicken, tender and smoky beef, and fresh toppings. The fries are perfectly crispy and golden.
The restaurant's breakfast tacos, including picadillo and beef fajita, are appreciated, although some find the tacos to be on the smaller side. The thin tortillas are noted to be very tasty, and the mango drink with lots of pulp is highly recommended. The atmosphere is friendly and clean, making for a positive dining experience, with many impressed by the cleanliness of the bathrooms. While there have been minor mix-ups with orders, they are not considered serious issues. Customers enjoy the convenience of the location and frequently mention the pleasant experience of stopping in for food or beverages.
