    Chicken sandwhich
    Erick M.

    Overall clean, & friendly service! The food was pretty good, but tough to match up with competition Background on the restaurant -This fried chicken restaurant originates from Guatemala! Pollo Campero is a staple in the culture there and THE go-to fast food chain there. TATSE wise is it a slight difference front Guatemala to USA pollo Campero as they have slightly different methods Service: 4/5 -They are friendly and helpful!! They greet you with smile on their face Ambiance 3/5 - This is a fast food establishment, it's pretty standard. A cool thing if you dine they serve you on reusable plates so it's good for the environment. Food 3.5/5 -We got the chicken sandwich. It's good, but doesn't beat out places like Popeyes or chick fil a Overall worth trying out as they have flavors and items (black beans and plantains) which are true to Guatemalan culture.

    First Pollo Campero location in Victorville! Happy to have them join us in the high desert. They were getting ready to close soon for the evening. My eldest daughter and I quickly went through the drive-thru. Drive-thru staff was okay. We ordered two $10 meals each came with 3 pieces of fried chicken, regular fries, and drink plus an order of family size yucca fries. It would have been nice if we could have substituted the regular fries with yucca fries. Oh well. Fried chicken batter was a tad salty IMHO. Outside skin was overly fried. Chicken meat was moist though. Drumstick was on the smaller side. Thigh size was decent. Fries were good. Yucca fries were great. Mango and Jamaica agua frescas were delightful. Would we be back? Yes, we would since it's the only Pollo Campero up the hill. Otherwise, we would need to get them down the hill. Thanks Pollo Campero for your presence in the high desert!

    I was excited to try this place due to finding out it originated in Guatemala. I stopped by last night and was very much underwhelmed. The empanadas were disgusting and tasted like a horrific chicken pot pie. I do not understand why they place their fries in the container they come in because it makes the fries extremely soggy. The chicken was actually good but I will say if you have high blood pressure, avoid. It's extremely salty and can be overwhelming if you're not an individual who enjoys salty food. Lastly, the horchata. I am so confused as to how anyone could think that was okay to serve? Tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch that had been soaked in water for many days. Yuck! The person at the drive thru window didn't put any condiments in the bag when they were asked to. I can say I will not be back and I am beyond disappointed. This place could have so much potential too, how sad

    Excelente servicio personal muy amable Y de la comida fue excelente fue de mi agrado

    Hardly any beans, mostly juice.

    Today the person that took our order didn't care about our complaints, she literally pretended not to hear us. We wanted to get larger pieces of chicken and said we were willing to pay extra but we were told that was not an option. Every time we get the chicken mix we get microscopic meatless wings. We already pay more here than pollo loco and pollo loco gives tortillas and delicious salsas. Also every time we've come something has been missing or not worth having. Today we got mostly juice in our cup of beans. Other times our buns were missing. Once we were even shorted a chicken piece. No comment on the inside dining as we have not been inside.

    Best fried chicken in town!!!! Fast service in a brand new building. Popeyes and KFC had nothing on this chicken

    3 pc meal and gol box.

    Great customer service. First timers and Zuleyma M. recommended us a yummy meal! Very content with how clean the restaurant is and how good the food was. The bathroom was baby friendly with a clean changing table. Something new was definitely needed up here!

    This is what they need

    I have been to the Pollo Campero in Vegas, Los Angeles & San Bernardino, they Chicken have always been fresh, hot, delicious. I went to the new one in my city and I must be honest. Customer Service was on point the Chicken not so much. I think they're cooking too much and putting it in the warmer that's making it not good at all. I had to change it two times the (first: over cooked & cold, second: cold & soggy on half of my thigh, the breading was not fully cooked). That comes from putting to much in the fryer and not shaking it. The ladies were very helpful, but at this point I was very unsatisfied and disappointed. I packed it up brought it home that was Monday Feb 9th today is Feb 11th. I really wish they wouldn't cook so much chicken so they don't have to keep it in the warmer. That takes the crunchy away makes it soggy and not fresh hot. I know it's new and upcoming, but they need to work on it being better. They need to pull some workers from other stores that have been working there for years to train them to let them know how much chicken to cook and how much not to cook. I know all this because I've worked at Stater Brothers for 10 years and in the deli for eight years. We fry chicken all day every day and we don't keep it in the warmer unless an order pick up is running late that's when we put it in the warmer. Because it definitely makes it soggy. I love the chicken but, when I go to this Campero I'm going to order fresh and wait for it. They need those heat warmers. Why yall don't have those? The 2 pictures is what this place needs.

    The food is delicious and the service it's great love this place I recommend this place

The cocktails are always delicious, and we love ordering the traditional guacamole. Pro-tip for the nachos: they are great, but we like asking for the chips on the side so you can use them as a dip (though they could use a little more meat on them next time!). ​The hotel itself is very nice, and the rooftop provides a beautiful setting whether it's a romantic date night or a family night out. Just a heads up that parking can be a little tricky in the lot, but they do offer valet to make things easy. ​Highly recommend this spot! and if you go, definitely ask for Gloria!

And I was surprised with how quick the food and drinks came out. Had plenty of time to eat, enjoy and pay before our movie started. For food we just ordered appetizers and tacos, including the following: 1. Chicken tinga taquitos- they were good. We'll seasoned. About 3 taquitos. Loved all the toppings on it. Good amiuny of meat in each taquito. 2. Aquachiles verdes- this one was deceptionally spicy. The heat definitely creeps up on you. Cucumbers provide a brief reprieve but it was spicy still though. Good amount of shrimp in it. The small tostadas served as a nice vessel. 3. Chicarron taco- 1 taco per order. It was really loaded. Definitely required the 2 taco tortillas to prevent it from ripping. Good flavors. Wish there was some crunch to the chicharrone, but there wasent. They have plenty of drinks to choose from ad well. We ordered: 1. El jefe- this was a good drink. Very smooth. Yea you can taste the alcohol but it was very pleasant 2. La mesera- this one was good also. I thought it was going to be spicy because of the black pepper. But it was very refreshing. Cucumbers made it nice and light. 3. Lindo Amanecer- a sweeter drink. It was sweet and refreshing. In general everything tasted good. The drinks were amazing. Definitely a good vibe minus noisy patrons. Love the music playing in the background. Great customer service!!

    Baracoa Cuban Restaurant was an amazing discovery when we stopped for a lunch pitstop on our drive…read moreup towards Tehachapi. I can easily see them being a favorite in the Palmdale area. There was plenty of parking in this lot. The entrance is located through their patio, which can be a bit counter intuitive. We came at opening and the restaurant got really busy during our time there. Initially we were looking at the sandwiches because it was lunch time, but then we were going to a wedding that night so we decided to eat something more filling since the ceremony and speeches always delay the eating. All entrees here are served with black beans and rice or congri, and 3 fried plantains. My boyfriend had the Ropa Vieja ($28) with the congri and I had the Lechon Asado ($25) with the rice and beans. Our food came out pretty fast after we ordered. My boyfriend's Ropa Vieja is a Cuban braised beef. The congri is basically a mix of the rice and beans. This dish was super tasty and the shredded beef was so tender with the bell peppers and onions. I can really taste the red wine and tomato sauce in the base. I took a few bites but in general I preferred my dish more, and vis versa he enjoyed his dish more. My lechon asado is a roasted pork that is super super tenderrrrrr. It was so sweet with the grilled onions and it had the perfect amount of fattiness without being over bearing. SO GOOD! Love the plaintains too. I'm glad I got the rice and beans option because I would have gotten too full too quick with the congri. I barely touched my beans and only got through half of my rice. Both dishes came with this super tasty garlic butter sauce that I poured on my rice and made it even tastier. It was so good. One thing I didn't enjoy about the experience was the flies attacking us and our food. Since the door is open and connected to their outdoor space, it leaves the opportunities for flies to come in. We had to play defense with the flies the whole time. The service here is a little slow. Especially when I was trying to get back on the road I wasn't feeling too patient. I waived down multiple staff members too. Also I got hit with an undisclosed 3% surcharge for using my credit card. I only found out after I got the receipt. I would have paid in cash if I knew. *dislike* LOVE LOVE LOVE the food. Might be the best Cuban food I've ever had... and I've been to Florida where there was a lot of Cuban spots. Room for improvement with service, flies prevention, and the disclosure of the credit card fee.
