    Had a craving for some empanads, and you can't best getting 3 and a side for under $8. I got plantains as a side they were sweet and cooked well. The empanadas are flavorful and perfect for a snack.

    If you looking to satisfy that urge for chicken but need a healthy option, then be sure to give Pollo Campero a try. I stopped in for lunch with my dad who is following the keto diet. He was able to stick with his diet due to the availability of options like baked chicken and unsweetened tea. I, not currently following a low-carb diet, opted for the camperito meal deal. For under $7, I got 9 camperitos ( think chicken tenders that are about double the size of a piece of popcorn chicken), fries, and a roll. I also got a medium drink for about $2 with free refills on any of their drinks. Their drink selection has all of the normal choices of soda including tea. The best thing was that for the price of the soda, I was able to drink all of the horchata I wanted! There was also a mango juice option. PS, the horchata was so good that I got a second glass of it. The food arrived quickly and with a smile. What took me by surprise was that despite the fast food feel of the store, the food was served on real dish ware with real metal silverware. Definitely classed up the lunch experience! Plus the booths were very comfortable, making this patron very content. As for the food, the chicken was fantastic! It wasn't over cooked at all and the breading was crispy. I had the Campero signature dipping sauce which reminded me of Chick-fil-a sauce due to the tangy, creamy nature. I took a star off due to the unimpressive sides that accompanied the chicken. The fries, while cooked well, were nothing super special. They strongly reminded me of the big bags of fries that I have bought from the grocery store and fried at home. The rolls were also clearly from a bag of rolls. There was nothing screaming Campero twist to them. They were not even warmed. A little disappointing. Overall, come for the chicken and horchata which is reasonably priced. Maybe if they up the quality of the sides, this restaurant can really take off. The staff was very friendly and the store was very clean so the bases are covered from that end.

    Fairly new at the Katy fast food scene this location is one of the newer one for the chain that been around for while. This place's located off the busy road of fry road and it is very easy to missed if you a fast driver like me. The parking is very tight is a very small parking lot. The chicken was very good. I ordered the three pieces combo. You have a choice between fry and baked. I ordered the baked one, the chicken was full of spices that combine with fresh lime they give you, it is one of the best chicken I taste in a long time. The place is fast casual means, you go up and order , they give you a number, then they bring you out the food. The service is it is what it is consider it is brand new. What I didn't like was ten minutes before closing on the Friday night they put away the napkins. That kind of ruined the experience. That been said I will be back for more chickens.

    Boneless wings? GOOD. Empanadas? EVEN BETTER. As a Salvadoran that has had the real deal back home I can vouch that their recipe is pretty close, I was beyond surprise to say the least. The only item I wasn't convinced with was the yucca fries, they barely had any yuca and were too crunchy with no flavor. Definitely needs improvement on that. Their sides are not so generous either, I got a side of beans and the container wasn't even filled half way (hence the very little portion on my plate since I was splitting the food with my coworker)

    Workers are all just kids that don't know how to serve customers. They are always playing around and can't make food on time.

Tacos Asada (let me tell you about the asada, tender and flavorful, you can tell they have better quality meat vs other spots around the H) 2. Torta Asada (underrated IMO, cheese grilled to the bread, topped with guac onions cilantro salsa, the kids love this) 3. Chicken Quesadilla (regular order is very big, comes with side of guac, the kids love this) Green sauce is a great addition, not too spicy but good overall flavor. Other table sauces good too.

After a few seconds, I turned around and saw even more people lined up after us. Line was never ending. So when you come, do expect some wait time due to the amount of orders. I only got one taco because I wasn't too hungry and I enjoyed it. They didn't skimp on the filling either. It was flavorful and had a kick to it-- right amount of spice for me. My friends all got something different and they all liked what they ordered. I'll definitely come back to try the other tacos and quesadillas.

I also customized the burger with bacon, blue cheese, pickles, and a hard fried egg which made for a nice addition of flavors. Queso tasted home made. Cleaned the bowl!

Menu had a lot of burger variations so we selected the BBQ Burger w/ FFs and we split it. Burger came out pretty fast. And it was spot on. Thick patty, crispy bacon and a good BBQ sauce. Patty was still juicy, just like it should. FFs were crispy. Really good meal and just enough for us. We visited with the waitress and she said the restaurant was her parents. I had noticed that they do breakfast tacos and papusas. She said he mother was from El Salvador and the papusas were legit. Guess what I'm having the next time. Hearing their story was great - nice to hear someone succeed. They have beer n wine and a happy hr. If you like old school burger you got to try Old School Burger.

First, let's talk about the service which is extremely efficient you order at the counter and the weight staff brings out your meal shortly thereafter. The ambience is very plain like a diner very simple but very clean and so if you wanna grab some wonderful Greek food especially a Gyro you'll find no place better at least on the west side of town. The salads are wonderful of which I had a Greek why not I'm in a Greek restaurant but it was chalk full of wonderful, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, and had a great dressing. In addition, I had a Gyro, which I really didn't even eat until later that day because the salad alone was filling. The owner happen to be in on this particular day as he often is in his restaurant.

I stopped in before an open house nearby, and it ended up being such a highlight of my day. The moment you walk in, it feels like a true family-owned Greek diner--unpretentious, warm, and inviting. Chris, the owner, welcomed me with a big smile and took the time to walk me through the specials, which says a lot about the pride and care behind this place. I ordered the gyro combo and it was next-level. The meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, stuffed generously with all the classic gyro essentials, and wrapped in warm, soft pita. Every bite was balanced and satisfying. The fries were fresh, hot, and flavorful--not an afterthought at all. And the baklava? Flaky, sweet, and rich without being overpowering--absolutely delicious. Don't skip the house hot sauce--it adds the perfect kick and takes the gyro to another level. This is exactly the kind of locally owned business that makes a neighborhood special. Incredible food, genuine hospitality, and the kind of place you confidently recommend to clients, friends, and anyone who wants to experience the area like a local. I'll definitely be back.
