    Was looking on Yelp for a good place to get pollo asado al carbon and this popped up . Had to say while the neighborhood is not the beat the chicken here is of the hook. I order two chicken, rice beans, potato salad and ensalada de nopales . The chicken was nice and juicy with a great taste . Every bite was delicious . The sides were just as good as the chicken which is really rare in establishments now a days . The salsa is hot so be warned !

    2 pollos enteros, 2 sides of rice, 2 sides of nopales, and salsa  #5

    My family and I have been coming to this place for years now and it's a must go when we are in Compton . The chicken tastes delicious, the workers are quick, and their salsa is the cherry on top!

    Yummy spicy salsa that comes. With the meal and goes so well with the authentically grilled chicken meal we had.

    You can easily miss this place if u weren't looking. we were driving by looking for something to eat and thankfully I have a husband with great vision who saw the pollos asados specials advertisement board attached to the roof of a truck parked across the street from the restaurant. We stopped by and I'm so glad we did. We got a half chicken meal that comes with half a grilled chicken, rice, whole beans, grilled onions and serranos along with corn tortillas and salsa. Everything was seasoned and cooked perfectly. Our meal was extremely enjoyable. The salsa is flavorful and spicy but only mildly by our standards, and it compliments the chicken meal Really well. We will definitely be returning soon.

    It's so unusual to find a place like this, that really tries to please their customers with unique,…read morefun, delicious high quality food featuring prices you can live with along with personal customer service. The menu is easy to understand & while they have a variety of items they all flow together. We visited for the first time on a rainy day just before their grand opening. They have a patio in front but there are several tables & chairs inside. We went with the Smash Burger and Chicken Sandwich as Combo's so they came with fries & a drink. For $2 more you can switch the drink for a Shake! Great deals! A new taste treat for me was the Corn Ribs. Robust flavor & fun to eat! I love that they also offer a Grilled Chicken Sandwich & for those who want beef & chicken there's the Cluck & Smash!

    I attended the grand opening for Shake'Hen Buns and was definitely surprised. The location is on a…read morebusy intersection so I recommend coming in from the east or south to avoid the headache. This location used to be two separate restaurants but is now combined into one, offering new remodeled facilities and a hybrid menu combined from the OG menu. We tried the smash burger and the fried chicken sandwich combos, the fries were amazing when fresh and I believe the bun could be better but overall had all the ingredients to a good smash burger; warning, it is mustard fried patty. The real star was the fried chicken sandwich, the fry on it was thin but crispy with flavor. To pair, we enjoyed the Chamoy lemonade and Shaken Monkey shake which will be very welcomed this upcoming summer. It's hard to match up the popular fast food giants, but I see this place filling in a much needed space. For when you're craving something specific, but don't want to wait in line. In addition, if you have an indecisive family, there is a large array of choices for them to pick. As a disclaimer, they offered a free meal ticket for any visitor that they advertised through social media. However, I did purchase items and had their previous location's food before.
