Very tasty fried chicken, grilled also available, with a choice of sides, rice, beans, French fries, Mac and cheese or fried plantains, rolls and soft drinks. Service is prompt. Parking is available, walk in, no drive in window.
Placed and online order for curbside pick up. Waited for about 30 minutes before my husband went inside to find out what was going on. He was told that pollo campero no longer offers curbside. It would've been nice for their team to call and notify us of this change. Online it still gives you the option and we have been to other pollo camperos and have never had this issue. Food was ok and service was bad.
Since we moved I do not visit Pollo Campero as much as I once did. The chicken is outstanding. I made the trip for our Easter Brunch. We served chicken and waffles. While I made waffles from scratch, the chicken here is perfection. It made everyone smile and even the vegetarians in the crowd were envious. It’s back in our rotation.
Huge portions! It worked out to two meals for me. Great customer service. Everyone is so nice and accommodating. The food is fresh and flavorful. I recommend the plantains and dark meat.
Great food! They get really busy so sometimes they don’t get the chance to clean out. I got to go, waited a few mins. It was fresh and everything tasted great!

Some of the lettuce was old & brown.
Took almost 20 mins for a Salad bowl togo.
I ordered the salad asked for grilled and they didn't have that so, I got the fried which I typically dont get to stay healthy
This was probably the nastiest salad I've had, I couldn't even finish it
What a waste of 9.50$ just go to chipotle or chick-fil-a or
Seems like the staff doesn't really know what's going on either.
A friend of mine always said stay away from this place- so I did until today and I should.have listened to him and then I started reading the reviews after I was done eating and it all made perfect sense.
Yuck!

Unimpressed with the cleanliness of this particular location, tables were left dirty and it didn’t seem like anyone cared to clean. They also have plumbing issues in their bathrooms causing water to be all over the floor. We tried the new campero bowls that are being promoted and were unimpressed as well. The guacamole topping was frozen. Pieces of chicken are incredibly small. The fountain drinks as far as the horchata goes was empty and no one was checking on them to refill them. Very poorly managed. In all of this there was one employee wearing orange who was trying his best. Unfortunately I didn’t get his name. They had a lot of orders backed up when we went (dinner time). Correct me if I’m wrong as I have no restaurant experience but if I know dinner time gets busy shouldn’t I be more well prepared?
