    Front entrance to "Best Chicken in Town"
    Traci-Dale C.

    What a happy find! Husband and I are in town visiting family for a few days and wanted to eat before arriving. We were in the mood for BBQ chicken and the place we intended to try just down East Morris had already closed their doors. We opted to try El Pollo and are leaving with happy full bellies and leftovers. He got the 1/2 marinated chicken and I got the ribs and chicken combo (with the sauce on the side). He had a yummy horchata and I drank tap water. We both LOVED the marinated meats and didn't even use the sauce on the side except to taste (it was good... just unneeded because the meat was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. The ribs fell off the bone and the chicken was juicy even though the outside had a beautiful char on it. Each meal came with beans, rice, and 3 tortillas- all were excellent. There was also a fixing bar with shredded lettuce or cabbage, fresh Pico, guacamole, ranch, and other things I don't remember. In pretty sure this is our new favorite restaurant in Dalton. Oh, all this was only $25 (though we left a nice tip which the young waitress deserved)!

    Remarkably good and local Mexican cuisine! A customer recommended stopping here for lunch and was it GOOD. The menu is a single page. 8 choices and that's it. All the grilling and smoking appears to be done out front. I went the with marinated chicken breast, served with beans, rice, and your choice of corn or flour tortillas. Just wonderful flavor on the chicken...so tasty. A condiment bar with all the essentials (fresh salsas, red onions, roasted peppers, limes, etc.) is there to round out the chicken. Will certainly be stopping by again, well worth the visit. If no parking in front, use across the street.

    Went to Pollo Alegre to get some wings that a staff member from TK Wings recommended. I got Hot, Lemon Pepper, Habanero, and smoke BBQ. Had my whole family over so we made sure to buy enough for everyone. Let me tell you, these wings had everyone sucking there fingers for more. Now I know where I'm going for some chicken wings!!!

    Excellent

    See all

    Service very good. Food was fast, fresh, tasty and big portions…read more Drinks are nice large 32oz Salsa was good, probably a bit much on the sugars, but thick enough and tasty Chorizo dip was good, chips were warm and cooked well Parking ample, just a mile from the downtown restaurants You won't leave hungry or disappointed Well above the average Mexican restaurant

    So I guess I've been on a Mexican food kick the past few weeks, unintentionally. I came here for a…read morefriend's birthday dinner and they had a nice private area upstairs for us to eat and sit altogether. We had a large party. It was my first time coming all the way out here and I have to say, this is one of the best Mexican food restaurants (if not the best) I've ever been to in the area. I ordered the Beef Chimichangas and it was absolutely delicious. Huge portion sizes, every side was tasty, and the vegetables tasted fresh too. The dish overall was flavorful and savory. The sides were wonderful, crunchy, and fresh. I can't complain really. The menu prices were affordable, which I really liked. And they were generous with the sauce on top! Service was great, they did a pretty good job taking care of us since we had a huge party of people for the birthday. They were attentive, helpful, and funny. I'm so happy to say that I wasn't let down or disappointed in the slightest. I'm not sure when I'll be back around Dalton, but I would definitely come here because I know I'll be eating good. My experience was so memorable, thank you!
