DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!! Very unassuming outside, and very limited seating in the interior. Food is made to order and chicken is very well marinated/seasoned. Piping hot, juicy fried chicken. Heard about this place online, and was not disappointed when I arrived. Will definitely be coming back. Met the owner who was working at the restaurant when I dined, and he was a terrific host. 10/10 would recommend.

Sunday evening, 30mins before closing here I come strolling in, saw an empty warmer vanity. I asked the polite woman in the front (Vanessa, one of the owners), oh are you closed already? Since I didn't see a piece of chicken in the vanity. She replied, oh no we are open, is just that we make our chicken to order. Yumm!!Immediately I proceeded to order a family meal and some extras, everything looked wonderful on the menu! Took a seat while my order was being made. It smelled so good once the chicken hit the fryer, it's a small place so the aroma hit my nose very quick. Cute hole-in-the-wall between a burger and a pizza place, make sure you don't miss it.Let me tell you, they did not disappoint! You can order spicy or regular both are just as delicious. Plus very generous portions. Definitely returning for more.

We were on google maps searching for fried chicken and this place popped up, so we decided to give it a try.I didn't expect it to be a small spot, clearly designed for takeout, but we walked in and were instantly greeted by a guy behind the counter. We ordered the 8-Piece meal, spicy and regular, it came with french fries, and coleslaw. The only red mark would be that the french fries are noted on the menu as being "seasoned", they were not. I also noticed in other reviews, the fries appear to be seasoned. Maybe they ran out of seasoned fries, but it would have been great to try them. Everything was made fresh, the chicken was this beautiful deep golden brown color, the flavor is different from most other chicken places, but still good, and it was so moist!They did let us know that we should expect to wait 12-15 minutes, and to our surprise, after about 5 minutes, we were offered bottles of water while we waited (yay for customer service).Will definitely try again, but they better have seasoned fries, or else ?‍?

Me and the wife stopped by after dropping her car to get maintenance, and this has got to be the best chicken I’ve ever had. Juicy, flavorful, crispy, the sauce is amazing. Met the owners and they are great people and were awesome. If you don’t like this business then you dont deserve their food and hospitality, 100 out of 10, I will be back for more.

So, iam great full for finding this place wow! It is a small place in but absolutely huge on taste. I've never tasted chicken this good in my life. As soon as I sunk my teeth in I knew this place is going to be the biggest draw to garland. They are definitely going to need another store because they are going to be big. This husband and wife team are one of a kind. Pleas stop by I had the 3 piece with frys and Cole slaw..come and get it before its gone..Parking: ThereWheelchair accessibility: There is alot of parking it's a shopping center but ?

And Pinulito's for the win! I love this locally owned place. The chicken is fantastic. I love their spicy seasoning. They are always so nice. Don't forget to call your order in, it's all made fresh.

By far the best-fried chicken I have had as long as I can remember! Crispy, flavor, and moist. Both traditional and spicy were fantastic. Spicy has a bite, but not too much. Full of flavor.Cole straw, and fries were great too! I want to know what seasoning they use for the fries, it's not overboard like some places. Perfect compliment for them.The leftover chicken was still amazing the next day. Highly recommend to check them out.I do want to mention it's a small place, and they cook it fresh, so it took about 15-20 minutes. Be patient, worth the wait.My new place for fried chicken ?

Excellent chicken, marinated 24 hours so that the flavor lasts to the bone. Excellent and interesting spices, definitely from Central America.

They have really good chicken sandwiches and friendly staff/owners. Highly recommended!

I thought this place closed but now it is open to new ownership. It was pretty good back then but now the chicken is next level. The new owner has plenty of experience in running a business so I can tell what new ideas they incorporated into the place. They have their own signature chicken sauce which is pretty tasty and when you order the chicken they start to fry it so you can have fresh and hot chicken. The chicken is so juicy and delicious! I'll definitely come back more often now that the chicken is the bomb!

Yes, this is how chicken should fry! We just landed from South Florida & our 1st stop was Pinulito! If this is a sample of Dallas TX food then we will enjoy our stay. The chicken was very seasoned...I was looking in the back for a big auntie winking at me. She was no where to be found. The place is owned & operated by a super nice Spanish husband & wife. They kept coming out to make sure everything was OK. It was great over all experience. Fingers cross they open their next place in Ft. Lauderdale because there is NOTHING like that there!!

Enjoyed Pinulito today at their Dallas location. My daughter personalized her Pinulito Special Fries and the staff was super nice! We’ll be back soon!!

Chicken tasted great. Quality was also great. Churros were delicious. Owners and staff were super friendly. A little pricey but what isn't nowadays.
