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).

Decent place for tacos. They take a while but it's worth it. I usually get chicken tacos with extra Pico DE Gallo on the side. Bomb!

Birria...everything! Like many in Fort Worth, I was drawn to Birrieria y Taqueria Cortez with the…read moreheadlines that they received Michelin recognition. A local place that serves amazing Birria, count me in! We made our jaunt for a Friday lunch and they were busy. There's plenty of space here - they have both outdoor and indoor seating but given that it was still hot AF, most everyone was crammed inside. The menu is quite expansive. As I said, its birria galore. Usually when hit with this much goodness I try to default with some of the tried and true recommendations, so I opted for the Quesataco Combo: 3 birria and cheese tacos, with all the fixings. Amazing. decadent. delicious. Plenty of words to describe the great birria they dish out here. Happy to say Birrieria y Taqueria Cortez lives up to the hype and if you're like me and you love some birria, definitely give it a shot. We will be back to try some birria pizza or even the birria ramen. Can't go wrong here.

I cant believe I havent reviews this place yet! I been coming to Cortez when they were still just a…read morefood truck back in 2020! I knew back then they were the real deal. When I was on my birria kick I would drive from Arlington all the way here because no other place came close. The meat is full of flavor and spice and the conzume they bring out with it is just as good. Its full of spice and flavor and I straight up drink that by itself, i dip my tortillas with it. I usually put salt and lemon on the tortillas and then roll them up and dip em in the conzume. In the past, I had the ramen, the platillo, the tacos, and I think the quesabirria, they are all delicious but my favorite is the quesabirria and the tacos, followed by the ramen. The menu is small but just stick with the tacos or buy the meat by the pound, and you are good to go. The rice and beans are average but still good; the salsas they have on the table are amazingly delicious. The light green one is my favorite because is not too spicy but spicy enough to give me that kick am looking for in my food. I drown my food in that salsa sometimes and then dip in conzume. In the past, I also had their margaritas, and they are delicious! The mango with chamoy and Tajín on the rim is my favorite! They have a patio in the back with another bar and more Tv's. The staff is nice, but the last 2 times i been there it took over 10 minutes to just get a waiter to recognize i had not been help and place my drink order with them. I notice the staff tends to pay more attention to bigger parties instead of groups of just 1 or 2 customers. I like the atmosphere of this place; the music, the shows they have on the tv and the murals honestly make it feel cozy like I am visiting a family member. I don't come here when they have soccer games on or late at night on the weekends because the customers can get rowdy sometimes, and that's not my vibe. All the time I've been, they have a security officer so people don't get too out of hand. The parking lot is kind of small so if you come on a busy day/time, you might need to park across the street. I never had to wait long to get a table, and the staff is pretty quick about cleaning and turning tables over to keep the wait down.

I tried 2 cheese enchiladas, one work ranchera sauce and one with chipotle. Both were tasty - definitely a Tex mex vibe. They weren't exactly the taste I was looking for that's close to what I grew up eating, but it was good still. My kiddo also had an enchilada and ate most of it and my husband had a burrito that he said was okay. Our server was nice, she was also working a party of about 33 at the time and was quite busy. It did take awhile for our check to arrive after requesting it, but overall it was solid service.

We decided to head over to the ever popular El Arroyo. We were hoping to be able to find a parking spot in their packed parking lot. I say this kindly since El Arroyo is very popular and to plan accordingly. I'm an amputee and there are only two handicapped spaces. Arriving we were optimistic, and we were in luck. We didn't get a handicapped spot but one just as good on the end of a row allowing my lots of room to transfer to my mobility chair. We love El Arroyo's patio, and it was going full blast. The hostess tagged the perfect accessible table for us and had it cleaned and set! We settled in and were greeted with salsa and a basket of piping hot chips. There was an awesome vocalist singing America standards in the background. She was wonderful, I wish I had gotten her name. Ashley, our incredible server, greeted us and took our drink order. It was definitely margarita time. We love their margaritas! They're a must if you're dining at the restaurant. After looking at the menu, my wife and I decided to split an order of chicken fajitas for one. We've found out fajitas for one are perfect for the two of us. The order usually provides at least two fajitas for each of us. So that's what we ordered. This would be the first time we'd ordered fajitas at the restaurant. In a jiff, Ashley delivered our margaritas to the table. She apologized that the food may take a bit longer since it was Friday evening and the restaurant was slammed. We told her we were in no hurry and just wanted to relax. We sat back, munched on chips and salsa and enjoyed the live entertainment. After a reasonable wait, dinner was served! Our chicken fajita entree was delivered smoking and sizzling along with all the necessary sides. Oh my, the fajitas smelled so good. We knew by the smoky smell they were going to be incredible, and YES, they were. They were some of the best chicken fajitas we've ever had. The chicken had just the right amount of marinade on it, and it was grilled to perfection. The side, rice, refried beans, guac and pico, were perfectly prepared and seasoned. To the flour tortillas, they were some of the softest and most tender tortillas we've had. To top the evening's visit off, Ashley, even though she was super busy, took excellent care of us. Thank you, El Arroyo for a relaxing dining experience, superior customer service with a smile, and a pronominal order of chicken fajitas. We'll see you again soon.
