    I love the food here because they remind me of the food of my native country of Mexico. Everytime i need a pick me up or craving 'homemade fast food' this is my go to. I love everything about them, the beans, rice, chicken, tostadas and of courses the salsa. When you dine in you get the eat from the salsa bar with the warm and toasty tortilla chips and all the toppings from the salsa bar. I love the green tomatillo salsa the most but sometimes they can be stingy. The portions are big and let me tell yall whenever I get the burger I am never able to finish the whole thing. I like that they cut the burger in half already so i know i can have leftovers for the next day. The french fries are good, not too crispy but soft enough to enjoy. The flautas are good along with the refried beans and rice. One of my favorites is the whole chicken itself and the rancho beans that come with it. OMG i just can't get enough of that mesquite fire blacken chicken. I don't like going through the drive-thru because it can take a while to get your order. I rather dine in and much on chips and salsa while my food is being made. The building itself could use some updates but for the most part, it is clean and usually never busy when I go in. The soda machine is at the front counter so refills are easy to get, the bathrooms are handicap accessible and the parking lot is well lit with plenty of space to park.

    1 whole chicken is wrapped in 2 packs. So, 2-chicken meal comes with a total of 4 packs of cut-up chicken

    This is one of our favorite Pollo Regio's, as not all locations are equal. The flavors & portions here are consistent. We love the chicken, charro beans, rice, & salsa verde. The flavor of the chicken is well balanced mixed with the smoky flavor. You can taste the seasoning down to the bones! The salsa verde is hot spicy with smooth creamy texture (some other locations make this salsa very mild & salty or bland), sooo good & unique for pollo regio. The charro beans & rice are also one of the best we e had! My kids love the cheese sauce. It's not a fancy venue, but the food sure makes up for it ... & I prefer it that way! They do mess up a little on our to-go orders at times, like packing the wrong sauce or less number if small salsa containers than what we ordered, but nothing major. Sometimes the food wasn't ready at the pick-up time, but we have learned to adjust our timing accordingly . The 2 chicken meal can easily feed 7 people with normal adult appetite.

    Thuy and I were actually heading to another restaurant when I spied this new (at least to me) Regio location. When we get to our intended destination, it was closed, so we decided to head back to Regio. I was thinking a number 4, taco de carne asada, would be pretty tasty. So we walk in and first thing I notice is I don't get the same happy vibe as I did from the Pioneer location (http://www.yelp.com/biz/el-pollo-regio-arlington). The young girl behind the counter did not seem to care about customer satisfaction at all. I already know what I want, but Thuy takes a moment to look over the menu. This seems to annoy the girl, even though there was no one behind us and only a couple of tables seated (at Regio's you order at the counter and you pick up your order when it's ready). Thuy decides on a number 10 (beef tacos). We place our order and get asked a couple of questions I did not understand, and for that matter never did, even though a) they were repeated and b) the girl spoke perfect English. No big deal. I order a horchata, Thuy requests a water. Well they are out of "little cups" so the only way Thuy is going to get a water is if she buys a cup. No thanks. Food arrives (it was actually delivered to us, by the young girl, so I'm sending some credit back her way). The first couple bites of my meal tasted OK, though the beef was a bit tough. But then it started to get saltier and saltier. Not to the point I could not eat it, it just stopped hitting the notes I wanted. Also the horchata tasted very diluted. It did not have the richnes I was expecting. Thuy's tacos were good, though they forgot the lime and I did not feel like asking for it. As we left we realized this location was not billowing the wonderful scent of the roasted chicken... So either it was not roasting time (seems they are always roasting over on Pioneer), or the chicken gets delivered to this location. Bottom line: I prefer the Pioneer location (and it's not that far away).

I did receive the wrong flavor of chicken initially, but they immediately corrected it. I actually insisted that they didn't have to, but they insisted on making it right, which I really appreciated. I ended up bringing the extra food to my friend at work, and she absolutely loved the Nashville wet-rub chicken. I personally loved the regular fried spicy chicken! What makes this chicken spot different from other chicken places is the attention to the details. You get whole wings, a healthy amount of fries, and fresh bread that is buttery, slightly sweet, and delicious. And then they gave me a complimentary cinnamon roll! I could immediately tell it was homemade from scratch. It was warm, buttery, soft, and sweet, and the icing was TOP-TIER. That cinnamon roll alone deserves recognition! Overall, the food was delicious, the portions were generous, and the customer service was amazing. Even when there was a mistake with my order, they made sure to correct it and went above and beyond to make the experience right. I would definitely recommend Mary Sue Hot Chicken if you're in the Arlington area!

He was wonderful throughout our visit ensuring we never lacked for anything. My wife and I ordered a fried chicken dinner and a vegetable plate. A few visits back we learned the little trick. Ordering the two separate plates we don't end up taking a lot of chicken home. The fired chicken dinner includes the white meat my wife likes and the dark meat I love plus unlimited veggies for the both of us. It's the perfect dinner for the two of us. The fried chicken was, of course, stellar, as it always is plus the addition of the phenomenal sides. the Italian style green beans, creamed style corn, whipped potatoes and a lettuce salad with their sweet-sour dressing. Steven S. with his great smile and a super friendly personality mode our busy even more special. Thank you Babe's for the wonderful meal and the stellar service.

The majority of the food tasted highly processed and did not taste homemade at all. It lacked the fresh, authentic flavor you expect from a local seafood spot.The environment of the restaurant did not help the experience either. Upon walking in, the atmosphere felt chaotic because the walls were cluttered with far too many signs, and the menus were completely disorganized. It made ordering feel stressful. To make matters worse, the owner was openly vaping right behind the counter while customers were waiting, which felt completely unprofessional and unhygienic for a food establishment.The only saving grace of the entire visit was the cashier. They were incredibly nice, polite, and welcoming despite the chaotic surroundings. However, good customer service at the register cannot make up for sub-par food and an unprofessional environment. I cannot recommend it to others looking for a quality meal.

They are located on a corner and parking is limited. I found street parking on the side street, about a block down in front of a house. We walked inside Gus's about 11:30 am on a Wednesday. They were busy' but had a number of open tables. There are mostly square and rectangular 4-top tables. We chose one by the front windows. A moment after we sat down, our server, Joe K came by to greet us and he took our drink order. Menu's are at the table, so we studied a bit and were ready for Joe when he brought our drinks.

The BBQ Beans weren't special but were decent. The Greens, decent. With each meal plate, the chicken is served on a slice of white bread. The chicken was fried to a deep brown and was real tasty. My dark meat was juicy and tender. My wife's white meat was drier but normal for white meat. My wife's felt the chicken skin was maybe overcooked as it was tough. It was fine to me.
