Bright interior. Seven tables and three half booths. Prompt counter service and food came out quickly. Chicken was moist and flavorful. Slight greasy skin but otherwise thigh and leg were excellent. Nice having the corn tortillas and chips with the meal. The jalapeño salsa was a nice addition bringing brightness and a little extra spice. I've had charro beans at multiple places. These are the best! Hot, well seasoned and loved the pork added in. read more

I wanted to love this place. Let me preface with...the customer service was great! Friendly and inviting, she even gave us our military discount. Not so great was the food. The rice was quite dry and the meat had a sour-like taste that we really could not get past. We truly ended up foregoing lunch; since we were in a time crunch to get back to the office. We just couldn't get past that weird taste of the chicken We walked away from our lunch and had the very tart lemonade (only) for lunch. I simply cannot recommend this restaurant. I pray this was just a one-off, but I won't be tempted find out. read more

We drove thru because our other chicken place wasn't taking CASH!!! THIS IS OUR NEW CHICKEN PLACE! We got the whole chicken with coleslaw.

Don't bypass this place...you will miss out on incredible flavor!!! The service was fantastic, too!!! read more

Pollo Pepe - 1POLLO with coleslaw! - Fast Food Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Chicken was good and tasty. I had the leg and thigh combo with charro beans, coke, and 3 tortillas. Chicken was seasoned very well and gave it a different flavor compared to other chicken places. Charro beans were hot and added some hot spice to make it hot Service was good. Lady taking my ordered took the time to explain all my questions due to my first time being there and she was very friendly & professional. Dining area isn't that big due to them being a drive-through. read more

Pollo Pepe has some of the best chicken I have eaten. It's not only amazing it's also consists too. Every time I eat there it's the same great quality and flavor! Highly recommend! read more

Go for the roasted chicken, flautas, rice, charro beans, corn tortillas, flan ,aguas frescas and the arroz con leche. But stay for the entertainment and watch all the crackheads wandering up and down the intersection of 35 and Rittiman. Service is always friendly and the prices are good too. read more

The green salsa you get with your meal is probably the best I've had in SATX!! Chicken is always good and the tortillas are always hot.

One of my favorite spots on the Rittiman block! It's an exquisite experience of flavorful food. I normally grab the Flautas preparadas and wash it down with a Coke de Mexico! Sometimes I'll add the Tajin chicken too if I have someone Grubbin with me. Everything I've had on the menu is very scrumptious and a unique flavor here in town! The customer service far exceeds any other fast food places around these parts. Even the manager isn't too busy to say hi and ask how everything was during your visit. Highly recommend stopping in if you haven't yet. Get some Flautas and chicken!! Place is one of kind in SA, Texas and even the good ol USA!! read more

Pollo Pepe - Flautas and some yard bird with a side of Charro Beanzzz - Fast Food Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Nice little fast food place! It's been in the work for a while so I was excited to try them when they opened. I was not disappointed. Clean and modern fast food dining with a simple chicken menu. I was torn between the chicken and the flautas but decided on the chicken Pollo Pépe after all! The chicken was juicy and tender unlike some other chains. Tortilla chips were crisp and the salsa had just the right amount of heat! I also had some freshly made potato chips, which honestly, were a little limp. In the future, I would hope they also make salt shakers available in the dining room. Wide array of bottled Mexican sodas were available as well as fresh horchata and the like. The staff were all incredibly friendly, and the environment was very welcoming and I can't say enough about it. I'll be back for sure. read more

Pollo Pepe - Front counter. - Fast Food Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I drove from the other side of town to try this place. Was it worth it? Hell yes!! Chicken was on point! We got a few sides to go with our family meal. We got beans, flautas, macaroni salad, and coleslaw. The beans, macaroni salad, and coleslaw was soo good! Everything was absolutely delicious! I forgot to snap the photo before digging in but we practically inhaled everything as soon as it came out! Really delicious and I will make the drive out there again anytime! read more

The service is nice and the ambiance is cool too. Very laid back. I appreciate the simple menu and delicious grilled chicken. Every time I go, I'm satisfied with the results. Tonight I got the 2 piece breast and wing combo with an unsweetened tea. Thank you so for awesomeness read more

Meh. I was interested to try Pollo Pepe for lunch but was pretty disappointed in the overall food. I ordered the two piece leg and thigh with Spanish rice. Everything was underwhelming - the chicken was fine but nothing noteworthy , the rice was exceptionally bland , and the salsa was a red, watery blend that had neither flavor nor spice. I was really hoping for a green sauce, similar to what I've had with pollo asados in the past. Would I revisit? Probably not. read more

We absolutely love Pollo Pepe. We routinely order the 8 piece family pack with a side of macaroni salad and then add 5 pc chicken flautas from time to time. The chicken is delicious and perfectly cooked consistently. My wife cannot get enough of the macaroni salad and I'll be honest, it is tasty. We've previously had a side of beans as well and those always hit the spot. For me, the chicken flautas are terrific with a crispy exterior and that chicken finishing off your bite of food. Overall, great food and consistent quality makes this a place to visit any time. read more

Pollo Pepe - 2 Piece Breast & Wing Combo! - Fast Food Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

"Overall, this is a great spot if you're in the mood for healthy 'fast food.' We ordered the 4-piece meal with fries, beans, and rice on the side, and I'd rate the food a solid 4. Everything arrived hot and was nicely seasoned. Personally, I'd prefer the beans without the bacon and hot dog pieces, but that's just my taste. The fries were definitely the standout--crispy and served fresh. Service here is top-notch, easily a 5, with a friendly and attentive team. The facility is clean, including the bathrooms, which met expectations. While the area itself isn't my favorite, this place earns a solid 4 overall. read more

Pollo Pepe nails it with their chicken. It's juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked every time. The rest of the menu might be hit or miss, but if you're there for the chicken, you won't be disappointed. read more

I love the chicken; it's always cooked to perfection and with the green sauce its chefs kiss. I tried the flautas today and found my new favorite item. You do have to eat them as they get soggy if you let them sit for a while and try to come back later eat. There is a spice to the flavors, but no hotter than a jalapeño. Definitely recommend this place to try. read more

The food was very good. Very flavorful! We had the chicken, rice, beans, macaroni salad and different natural juices like horchata. Everything was fresh and given to us very quickly. The service was wonderful and the facility was clean. It was a very nice place to enjoy wilts my family. Would definitely be coming back. The chicken flavor was different than other pollo asado places in the area. read more
