    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 have to stay this beat any stadium food you could've gotten out the water, and the value emphasizes that! We got so much food for the price point, and it was all good! I personally got the chicken and pickle on a stick, and the dough babies which is a glazed donut / roll hybrid that is so delicious and warm, the glaze is very vanilla forward. Krispy Kreme has nothing on these. The chicken on a stick was good, however, the flavor was a bit too sweet for me, so I would get the powdered Nashville hot seasoning on it next time, but it was so delicious and came with some really good ranch that taste like it's made in house (which obviously makes it better!). My mom who I was dining with got the quarter pound chicken plate, and I much preferred the seasoning on this chicken, but it was all very yummy. It also came with a roll, two sauces, and tons of fresh cut fries, so if you're looking for some of those you don't have to wait for the fair just come to Mary Sue's! The young lady working the register was very sweet, when we ordered our beverages I wanted to get a watermelon, Arnold Palmer, and she was happy to oblige, and the drinks even had fresh fruit in the bottom super refreshing to pair with the meal. There's an array of different hot sauces. You can try to pair with your food, at a hot sauce, bar and some of them are HOT, so proceed with caution, but it's fun to be able to have a variety of choices. They weren't slammed when we came in, we were able to order easily, and there was a steady trickle of people dining within the place, yet the tables were regularly open, and being cleaned as able. They really play into the location, and had some music playing relevant to the concert we were going to which was a nice little pregame! As we were dining, the co-owner was even making rounds throughout the lobby and chatting with patrons, we talked to him for a bit, and there's so much passion behind the business that it's hard not to just feel joy being in his presence and having a meal. I'm wishing continued success to the establishment, and know this is the place I have in mind next time I'm in the area. Be sure to check the hours on Google, just to make sure you're able to go enjoy it when you're ready, because the ones on the door don't align. There's also ample parking so you don't need to worry about that, and the lot doubles as paid parking for events.

The majority of the food tasted highly processed and did not taste homemade at all.

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.
