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.

Came here 10/10/20 because it had a 3.5 rating. Who lied!!!! I swear these places are getting worst. I waited for 10 minutes for my food through the drive thru. To just get old chicken as shown on the picture. A lot of it is old. And the tostada was hard and stale. Why you do serve this garbage??? The manager sure needs to improve the food quality and freshness. Y'all trying to screw a real Mexican. Smh, so disappointed.

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!

Found them after craving catfish for two weeks! Hard to find it because people like to pass Swai…read moreoff as catfish. The young man was nice and professional, the location was easy to get to and it was clean. They have a variety of items on the menu but I wanted fish. The fish was so good. The fries were so good!! I ordered the 6-pc family fillet with fries, bread and coleslaw. So glad that I found them! Will definitely go back!

When I try new places, I take whatever risks come with it, including wasting my money…read more I learned about them in my foodies group on Facebook; the reviews were mixed, but most were good. When I see something located directly off Cooper, I worry about the heavy traffic. This was an easy in and an easy out. The establishment was clean, organized, and well presented. I had: Fried catfish w/fried okra and corn fritters - 3 pc This was such a disappointment and a waste of money. Their reviews are excellent, and I was shocked, to be honest. Shocked that I happened to get something that ended up being thrown away; it wasn't edible. First, whatever seasoning they used on the fish was way too salty; I had to do my best to brush it off the fish. The fish was fried well; however, it was fried too well. It was so dry and overcooked, you literally needed something to drink after each bite. Two and a half pieces of fish, in the trash. I had planned to have it for lunch, dinner, and one the next day, but that didn't happen. The okra and corn fritters, as you can see in my picture, were overcooked as well. The okra was hard and did not taste like a fresh fry, and even if frozen prior, they can still taste fresh. The fritters were burnt. All went in the trash. When I think about it, I'm a bit perplexed. I had a twenty-minute wait, he said it was due to them making the food when ordered, but that definitely wasn't the case. The fish wasn't piping hot, nor were the sides. The best thing about the visit was the lemonade; it was good. Based on the reviews, in particular, the Google reviews, they seem to be pretty solid overall. I know that with the first impression they gave, I will not visit again.

Plus who doesn't love those biscuits and honey? Fortunately we had missed the lunch rush and were seated immediately. Our table was next to "Rick's" table, Babe's famous dining guest. Of course Rick is a mannequin. If you're seated at his table, he doesn't do much talking during the meal We both said hello to Rick and placed our order with our, ever smiling, Stephen S. 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.

Our waiter did NOT want to be there and put in minimal effort. The food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. The waiter said he would be back with our green beans but they never arrived. Their batter is not seasoned, making for bland chicken. Endless sides and large portions but the bland chicken and lackluster waiter at $20/person made this a 3 for me.

When hanging out on Magnolia St....you eat Gus's Fried Chicken! The spice level was perfect--just…read morethe right amount of heat to give it a bold kick without overpowering the flavor. The chicken itself was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with that signature seasoning that keeps you coming back for more. But let me tell you--the fried pickles are hands down my absolute favorite! Perfectly crispy, not greasy at all, and served hot with that irresistible crunch. I could honestly order those alone and be happy. The atmosphere was laid-back and welcoming, and the service matched the quality of the food--friendly, fast, and attentive. If you're craving real, flavorful fried chicken with a kick, Gus's is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back!

Great company. Good food. The wait was very long. But it was worth the wait. Meat was so crispy,…read morethe green were sweeter than I ever had them. Everyone's different, not saying they were bad. Just different. And the Mac was not my favorite. Once I saw they pour the bag of Mac n cheese in a heater. Then I was like ahh. I just figured it would be home made like the pies and chicken. Our waiter was sweet and we even had dessert. Recommend the chocolate pie warmed with ice cream. Love. Definitely not too bad. Will come back again. And try different sides.
