    Juan Pollo Chicken
    Cece C.

    PARKING I love these places where you don't have to walk a distance from 100 floors of a parking structure. What I love about this place is you can easily find parking right in front there's a huge parking lot right there. FOOD Let me start with the fact that the chicken itself has been seasoned well. It taste really good except for one major flaw. All the pictures show you fat chunky meaty chicken parts however, when I put in my first order, I noticed that the thigh was literally smaller than my hand curved up in a fist. As I have very small, skinny, boney hands. As a matter of fact, the guy didn't even have any meat at all worth mentioning. The drumstick was worse. It was as long as my middle finger and it was sadly anorexic. To be honest, if the chicken pieces were much larger and PLUMPIER, this would be one of my favorite go to lunch and dinner restaurants.

    Juan Pollo is always great, but Norma makes it unforgettable. She treats every guest with so much warmth and genuine care, going above and beyond in a way that feels rare these days. People like Norma are the heart of why I'll always come back.

    I started eating at Juan Pollo when I worked at Ontario Airport. It's a local inland empire roasted chicken restaurant. I love that they've expanded into orange county so I can get my fix closer to home. A testament to how good it is, the restaurants are often busy even during off hours. Juan Pollo has the best chicken hands down. The half chicken meal is my regular order with flour tortillas, salsa, and 2 side dishes. Pro tip, get double potato salad for your sides. It's seriously the best potato salad that I have ever had. Honestly I would come to Juan Pollo for the potato salad alone. Fortunately their chicken is terrific as well. Order in English or Spanish at the counter and shortly thereafter your food will be ready. Eat in or take out. If you enjoy horchata or tamarind this is a place where you can indulge in these less commonly available drinks. Very casual place. Fast food service and prices but much better quality food. The salsa is fresh and delicious. The hot salsa can be pretty hot so use caution if you aren't up for spicy goodness.

    I wanted to really love this place so bad! However there were just a few things I didn't really enjoy. When you walk in its a bit cluttered in the front. We waited a few minutes as there was no cashier in the front, which is okay... We ordered the juan pollo bowl and they were good. There was no salsa on the side, just pico de callo. The shredded chicken had bones in it and I think thats what kinda killed it for me. Its lovely to have to have shredded chicken but when you chew on a bone or several of them, it kind of makes you lose your appetite. Its very small on the inside with a few tables and it was clean overall. The two ladies were very sweet and made sure our order came out in a timely fashion!

    tasteless, expensive, dead chicken with burn marks. Side orders were not good either. The name is enticing but the flavor is bad.

    We recently relocated from Garden Grove to the Santa Ana/Fountain Valley area and have been on the…read morehunt for a Mexican restaurant to fill the void left by our beloved spot in Los Alamitos. Thanks to Restaurant Week, we stumbled upon this gem, and we are so grateful. The hospitality alone would earn five stars. But then came the food. The tacos? Absolutely exceptional. The steak was tender and flavorful in a way that reminded me of eating throughout Mexico, you could actually taste the meat. A light, gentle pickle of vegetables on top, minimal cheese, nothing heavy or greasy. These are not the American-style tacos drowning in a pound of melted cheese. These are the real thing. The beans were lovely, the rice was solid, and my passion fruit winearita drink was genuinely a treat. Restaurant Week gave us the perfect low-pressure reason to try somewhere new, and we walked out with a new favorite. We'll be back for lunch. We'll be back for dinner. And yes, Taco Tuesday, we'll absolutely be back for that.

    This was a great spot for dinner. The drinks were also delicious…read more I see that the restaurant had mixed reviews but honestly, our group of 4 all enjoyed our meal. It was a perfect date night! I ordered the mole enchiladas and they did not disappoint. The margaritas were tasty and the warm chips and salsa tasted amazing too. We spoke to the owner on the way out, as he thanked us for being there. And also let us know they also do brunch! Looking forward to coming back.

It is next to a gas station. It looks like a pretty popular place during the lunch hour. It's a smaller place inside, but they do have an outdoor patio. We were able to find a small table, not too far from the front counter. Ordering at the front was easy. The staff was friendly and quick. We could see the cook grilling up the meats as we placed our order. There were at least five different salsas to choose from as well as cucumbers and a chili oil at the self-serve salsa bar. I noticed a customer in front of us ordered a kids plate which included two street tacos and rice and beans. That's what I ended up ordering with Carne Asada and chorizo.
