    King Pollo was my spot to go when I was working at the 7eleven off state college because they were right next to it and it was very convenient for me to head over during my lunch break. The staff has always been friendly but now that they are under new management nothing has changed. Which I knew the new management before they took over the place. Still great service and the food is one of the best parts as well. My go to place since 2013. Their teriyaki chicken oh man it's really good, served with white rice and salad on the side. This plate is a good serving size plate nothing small. Definitely recommend them, they also do catering. So check them out! Not only do they give you quality service, remember you're supporting a family owned local business, nothing better than supporting our local businesses. To make it clear King Pollo is under new management and the location moved from where they had first started, next to the 7 eleven. King Pollo as you all see is on Lincoln and State College.

    Dry

    Not worth spending your money here the meat super dry bean taste nasty the potatoe salad dry as well

    Chicken Chicken and Beef Teriyaki Bowl

    I've tried this place a few times now but have never deviated from the half a chicken combo but today decided to try their teriyaki bowl and it was quiet tasty. I would go as far as to say it rivals the local WaBa / Flame Broiler. The chicken and beef are both seasoned well and have good texture. Rice is sticky and sauce isn't over done. While I still love their chicken combo, I can definitely see adding this in to the rotation of lunch choices.

    Boba drink options are now available.

    I love the chicken salad here. I just found out about this place. It's like el pollo loco but in my opinion more authentic.

    Tried this place on a whim. Glad I did. Food was good and was delivered still hot. Only the fries had cooled but were still good.

    The chicken burger combo was great! I bought the 1/2 chicken dinner for my husband and he said the chicken was tender and tasted good.

    The chicken is pretty moist. Everything besides the chicken is meh and not anything special. I wouldn't go back.

I'm not worldly enough to know what the decor style is called; I just know that I loved it. Paseo was packed... as I would expect on a Saturday night... I'm so glad my daughter had made a reservation. Unfortunately, I will still full from brunch at the Storyteller's Cafe earlier in the day, so I only ordered a chicken Caesar salad, which was delicious. I probably would've otherwise ordered their chicken en mole, which my daughter did order, and I tasted. Wow !! It was AMAZING ! I did have a few chips, the salsa and some guac, but I found the guac to be a bit heavy on the lime... or perhaps, lemon, not sure. It was still quite good, just not my preference. My other daughter ordered short ribs, which she (and my husband) loved. My husband ordered the chile rellenos but said they were too spicy. I've never had any that were spicy, so I was a bit shocked by his statement. I didn't taste them, so I don't know. There were others in our party, but I don't remember (or if I ever knew) what they ordered or if they liked their dish. I would definitely come back here the next time we're in Downtown Disney, and I'd order the chicken en mole. The Caesar salad was great, but I'd much prefer to get an authentic dish and to not be so full from a meal earlier in the day, lol.

A special shout-out to Juan at the cashier seriously the best! He was extremely kind, efficient, and made the whole experience even better with his positive attitude. Overall, this was a great Saturday night experience. Amazing food, fast service, clean environment, and a team that clearly cares about their customers. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to and recommending to friends.

    Cool spot with some great margaritas and cocktails!…read more Love this little Mexican restaurant located on the bottom floor of the Packing House. Came in for a little date night on a Saturday evening. The whole staff was friendly and accommodating, always quick to refill drinks or clear empty plates. We started off with some delicious and spicy oysters which were topped with a shrimp! We also had to try the Chori-brussels which are flash fried Brussels sprouts with chorizo, balsamic reduction, and Oaxacan cheese. For drinks we got a Santo Dia, a whiskey based cocktail with watermelon, lime, and fizz served over ice. We also ordered the Spicy margarita which had watermelon habanero, lime, and hibiscus flavors. They were both delicious and refreshing, the spicy marg had a good kick to it. For dinner we got a caesar salad, the ribeye plate, and the Urbana burger. We both loved the dressing on the caesar, it's made in house and it shows. The ribeye was cooked perfectly with a delicious herb butter on top, a really good steak sauce on the side, and thick cut fries. The ribeye wasn't the highest quality but it tasted good, the fries were perfect. My fiancé got the burger which had chorizo, melted queso Oaxaca, and an egg on top. Not gonna lie it was absolutely delish! I want to come back just for the burger. All in all we had a great time and I would definitely come back for some other menu items, especially to try more of their margs and specialty cocktails. Thanks Urbana!

It's on the first level of the packing district. It's a small spot but they make effective use of their space. There were people there but it wasn't full. It took a really long time for our waiter to take our order. We each ordered two tacos from their special and I tried the spicy margarita and my friend had the sangria. The spicy margarita wasn't my favorite and I found that it was wayyyy too spicy. The spicy really overpowered the alcohol and other flavors. The presentation for the drinks was beautiful but the flavor didn't do it for me. My friend didn't seem like she liked the sangria either. The tacos took a really long time to come out. The Al pastor pieces were cut into thick cubes. There was nothing memorable about the tacos. I really wanted to like this spot but it was a complete miss for me.
