    Shit nasty

    Long piece of hair in my food. I called to let them know and he acted confused. I should've known better

    I ordered on Uber Eats and was told that it would be ready for pick up by 1:25. I arrived at 1:35 and was told that it would be ready in 10 minutes. 20 minutes later my order still wasn't ready. When it was ready it looked HORRIBLE. I informed the man that I'd paid extra for WET wings and she squeezed almost a whole cup of sauce on 6 wings.

    The guy who said they were closed giving me the peace sign... Poor customer service

    Came in after work on a Sunday says they close at 7pm when I got in it was 6:55 the guy says they were closed even through the web said 7 People were still in getting food

    Lemon-pepper Wings (Extra Crispy & Extra Wet)
    C. P.

    First Visit- We had the Wings (Hot & Lemon-pepper- extra crispy & extra wet). They were definitely EXTRA crispy (probably won't do that next time- cause they were very, very crispy- almost like chewing wood). But the flavor was good. My only real complaint would be that we placed our order by phone & was told it would only be 15-20mins; got there 30mins from the time we ordered & they weren't done- took them another about 10-15mins. Will visit again.

    Came to get a makeover meal and OMG I am beyond pissed. Insist on telling me no one works here by that name but yet I called the number on the receipt. Sure I won't be supporting this place of business again... MY FOOD WAS STRAIGHT TRASH....NASTY AF and ther wings are small as hell.

    Ridiculous. How can this be consider a wing.
    Nick B.

    The size of these wings is ridiculous. Not even the size of my pinky. If I wasn't so hungry I would've asked for a refund. Not to mention it was so dirty in there, I almost lost my appetite. My last time eating here...and quite frankly I think I should be comped a free meal

    The girl at the register has a terrible attitude and no customer service. There was a huge ice and water spill as soon as you walk in.

    Wings were extremely small. You have to put your own lemon pepper seasoning on while people stand behind you to order

    If you're looking for some really good wings and a turkey sub then this is not the place. The menu options alone should give you an idea.

    My first introduction to Pollo Campero wasn't in Charlotte. It was back in 2001 when I worked at…read moreHouston's international terminal. Flights from Guatemala would arrive, and passengers would walk off the plane carrying bags of Pollo Campero. The aroma was unforgettable. Ever since then, I've been curious about what made this chicken so special. Fast forward to Charlotte, and now I finally understand the hype. I stopped in for a quick lunch and ordered the four-piece roasted chicken meal with sweet plantains, coleslaw, and a roll. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The chicken was juicy and packed with spices that set it apart from your typical fast-food chicken chain. It's hard to explain until you try it, but the seasoning has a distinctive flavor that makes Pollo Campero uniquely its own. The sweet plantains were excellent. Soft, caramelized, and sweet with those slightly crispy edges that make plantains so addictive. The coleslaw was cold, creamy, and crunchy, which paired perfectly with the chicken. The service was friendly, the value was excellent, and my order was accurate. I always take a moment to check my order before leaving the drive-thru, and everything was exactly right. If your fried chicken experience begins and ends with KFC, Bojangles, or Church's, give Pollo Campero a try. It's a delicious taste of Guatemala and a reminder that great chicken comes in many forms. Life is too short not to eat well, Charlotte.

    Charlotte is a fried chicken city. Aside from being the headquarters for Bojangles, we've got…read moreoutlets for all the big chains - KFC, Church's, Popeye's and such. Several excellent local restaurants, too. So I had high hopes today for Pollo Campero. PC was clean when I arrived at 12:30. Quite busy with about a third of the tables in use and the remaining were clear of dirty dishes. Surprising because they don't have a trash can that I could see - the staff bus and clean tables, clearing them swiftly. I ordered a three piece at the counter and it didn't take long until a running found my tent card and I was able to start. The chicken was thoroughly cooked, still moist. Not much for flavor in the skin today, it needed some hot sauce to bring out the taste. The cole slaw was creamy and crisp. Still good but also a little bland. The small dinner roll wrapped in plastic was fresh and fluffy. Overall, it's a nice little fast food spot. If you're looking for something in a known quantity along South Boulevard near the light rail, this will work nicely. [Review 728 of 2025 - 4162 in North Carolina - 24288 overall]

Upon entering there were other patrons waiting and were told the hostess hasn't been around for a while and everyone was waiting to check in or get on a wait list that looked like it wasn't being used. Which we learned from the hostess saying she's just seating whoever is next and there's no longer a list. Interesting. Is this a new practice? What compounded the issue is multiple entry points and no order to who arrived when to determine who's next. After a while we were seated in an area that provided a view of every screen so we could finish watching some games. After a short wait our server took our orders for apps and drinks. A short while later she took our orders. Our food arrived after a little wait. Not much to say. It's typical fair for this chain restaurant. The only reason I'm giving four stars was our server. Shawanda was great! She was responsible for a lot of tables and she seemed to perform her duties flawlessly, efficiently, and always smiled. She looked like she was working with purpose and gave the impression she enjoyed it. She deserves employee recognition.
