I used to live near the Marietta location which I loved. I moved to Acworth 18 months ago and was so thrilled to find a location near my new home. This restaurant is awesome! I can't get enough of this rotisserie chicken! I usually get the mini pack which is a whole chicken, salsa, tortillas, rice, beans, and potato salad. This is easily enough for 4 meals. Everything is great! I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant! read more

I enjoyed the chicken it was excellent. The tortillas seemed to be freshly made. The place was clean. Plenty of seating and parking available. read more

It's been awhile since I've eaten here. Tried it again. The dinner plate for $13.00 Delicious. 1/2 roasted chicken, 5 tortillas, salsa, potato salad, rice and refried beans. Can't beat it for a well made filling dinner. Ambiance not great but who cares if the food is good and cheap. Counter gal was very nice and meal was served so quickly I didn't get to sit down. Giving it 4 stars, if they could up date seating I'd go for 5. read more

The customer service is not very good, but the cookers are friendlier and more helpful. The food is too salty and doesn't have many choices read more

The chicken was delicious! I was disappointed with the sides. The beans have pork in them and everything else was mayonnaise. If you order a burrito they put mayo in it and not sour cream. The chicken tho...Chef's Kiss read more

Food is not bad the chicken is really really good but not a fan of the other sides and restaurant itself. They do have some authentic juices that are pretty good I tried the hibiscus drink not bad at all read more

This is another place I've been wanting to try for years. They advertise as " The Best Chicken in Town" and it very well might be. The chicken was flavorful and fall off the bone. Also the sides were pretty good too. Support your local establishments! read more

El Pollo Dorado - Mini Family Pack - Fast Food Near Me - Acworth, Georgia

The people were nice and friendly. You ordered at the counter, picked up your food, and found a booth. The place was clean with minimal decorations. We ordered the nacho deluxe, chicken salad, and taco meal. The nachos were shredded chicken with nacho cheese sauce and beans. It wasn't what we were expecting, and we were a bit disappointed. The chicken salad had shredded chicken, too. We thought it would be chunks of rotisserie. Unfortunately, there was a lot of water/liquid in the bottom of the salad, which made it a bit soggy. The tacos with the beans and rice were good, and the Horchata was too. read more

Very good chicken and sides. We lived in Southern California and loved the roasted chicken there. EPD brought back a lot of found memories. I ordered a half chicken to go with sides. Ask for recommendations when you go - I particularly enjoyed the potato salad. read more

El Pollo Dorado - the front of the restaurant - Fast Food Near Me - Acworth, Georgia

Come hungry, leave happy. Simple menu but perfect. Chicken, tortillas, salsa - you honestly don't need much more. It reminds me of charbroiled chicken spots in California. I got a burrito, it was huge and served with the tastiest potato salad. It was stuffed with shredded chicken, rice, beans, lettuce and some other stuff. Simple and delicious. I brought home a burrito bowl for my kids, they loved it. read more

This is one of our local go-to places for fast, affordable dinner for the family. They've just bumped their prices slightly, but it's still a deal. We get the mini-pack which serves 3-4 people for $20....a rotisserie chicken quartered, delicious potato salad, yummy beans, rice, and plenty of tortillas - flour or corn. They also have the glass bottles of Coke made with actual cane sugar, which I love! That chicken skin fresh off the rotisserie- mmmmmm! They have some cute art on the wall, but the architecture, location, and fast-food feel make me prefer takeout over dine in. read more

Delicious and juicy chicken . All sides included were tasty as well but that chicken had everyone wanting seconds . Great spot with friendly staff . Would definitely come back ! read more

They shred the chicken to think you get a lot ! Very expensive ! Same price as a real Mexican restraunt like la parilla ! You get refills at other Mexican restraunts but this one you pay 4 bucks for a drink no refills , no chips abd salsa , got the nachoes and they sucked !! No toopings , cheese not MEATER ! Handful of tiny chickens slivers ...this place looks like a meth house don't ever come here it's a scam read more

I tried this adorable little diner yesterday. The atmosphere was giving 'Mom and Pop shop,' which is fine if that's your vibe... However, I thought the meat of the chicken was a tad dry and skin oily.  In this economy, I want a song and dance with my meal.  I had a Hispanic-American fusion dish. So go for it if you enjoy tacos with greasy chicken. I honestly, think the food at Popeye's is less greasy; 'No tea, no shadow.' Customer service is typical. The decor is merely acceptable. Everyone appreciates something different, even if it's nothing like food I grew up eating. If you are in the area, I suggest the roller food at the nearest gas station.  It's a fourth of the price and maybe less greasy. Seriously, I had to double cleanse my face this morning. (If you, know you know.) read more

The best chicken anywhere. The sides are also great. I buy this chicken to make my chicken salad (shhh, secret). I like they are open late as well. read more

The chicken, rice, and beans are good. But that potato salad is like crack. The best I've ever had. Seriously. I don't know what they put in it, but it's the reason I keep coming back. read more

The chicken I had was pretty dry. The nachos wasn't the best either. I probably won't be visiting this place again.

Super fast service and delicious food. I get the lunch combo 1/4 chicken, potato salad, white rice, corn tortillas and hot sauce. The chicken is amazing and the potato salad is the best I've bought. I love that they serve it with tortillas, everything combined makes a bomb taco! Always in and out in less than 5 mins, I barely sit down for a couple minutes before my order is ready. Perfect quick lunch read more

I never knew about this place till someone recommended it. Great food, decent prices, and healthy options. Love it and will keep going there! read more

This was our first time trying this restaurant but it came highly recommended. We used door dash because we were helping our daughter move in to a new place. Highly recommend the family dinner. It fed three of us for two meals with some leftover. We recommend shredding the tasty chicken and wrapping in a tortilla with your choice of toppings. Will definitely eat there again. read more

Omg normally good but take that chicken Off the rotisserie a little bit earlier, tasted like sand. Do better read more

Please don't ever leave me. Wow, so me and my partner had never been to EPD, and we were curious... now, we can't stop raving about it. Polite staff, clean and simple dining area and massive portions packed with flavor. My boyfriend got the chicken bowl, and I got the "lunch" chicken plate. Which I couldn't even finish half. Perfect for leftovers. My ex is from California, and I stayed out there with him for a couple months, and this really reminds me of his families home cooking- the only thing I miss from that relationship! HAHA! read more

El Pollo Dorado - Fast Food Near Me - Acworth, Georgia

This place will have your stomach full. At first I thought it was going to be high priced, and small portions. Most half of a chicken meals I can eat then hungry a couple of hours later. This restaurant the chicken is juicy, and has just the correct amount of seasoning. You want to stop eating, but can't read more

The chicken is the best in town as the sign says. Service is great. The ambiance is plain but suitable.

I stopped at this rotisserie place because I enjoy freshly roasted chicken. Upon entering the place in noticed how clean it is. Then at the ordering counter posted is the latest health inspection report, 100A! Having never been there I asked the young lady at counter what she recommended. She mentioned several, but said I would enjoy everything on their limited menu. Less is better when a place is good at what they do. So I ordered the chicken burrito with hot salsa and a side of potato salad. And a diet soda all for the price of a boring chicken sandwich meal at your favorite red and white Kennesaw based National chain that everyone in NYC hates until they line up once a week for their newly found treat. Lol. I must say I was very impressed with the food I ordered. Everything was freshly prepared. I could see the kitchen staff loading raw whole chickens into their large rotisserie oven while at the same time taking off cooked ones. The potato salad and salsa tasted like it was made today. But the burrito was so huge I could not finish it. It was outstanding. I asked the young lady at the counter if the place is family owed. She proudly said yes, her parents own the place and family work there. That is apparent by the quality of the food, cleanliness of place and watching the staff hard at work. In the world of franchise restaurants that dominate the American landscape, it is always refreshing finding these little gems. We love family owned and operated local restaurants. I would give a 5+. I'll be back.... read more

Amazing chicken! It really is the best in town, highly recommended. Glad it is now open :) read more

They're chicken is SOOO good it's moist, not dry. The people in there are very friendly and patient. definitely recommend to order a whole chicken or two to-go when you're in a rush and have family coming over! read more

I wanted to like this place so bad but it just wasn't for me. It's a super interesting idea, using rotisserie chicken inside of burritos, but it just didn't taste right. Not to mention, I had several bones in my burrito, but I guess that's a risk you have to be willing to take. The upside, if any, is that the food portion is insane. The burrito was close to the size of my head. Service was good. The restaurant itself smelled very odd the day we were there. I can't quite describe it, but it's comparable to my grandmas basement. Sorry, El Pollo Dorado. read more

MOIST ROTISSERIE CHICKEN. I came here with my family while waiting for my car to be hand washed at the Texaco gas station for lunch. We've been wanting to come here to try out and we are glad we finally did. Since we were new to the menu, the bilingual speaking cashier behind the register helped us understand the choices and explained each dish. As you can see from the pictures, the portions are quite large. My wife ordered the lunch combo, I ordered the burrito which was double the size of my hand, and my children shared a cheese quesadilla. All the dishes were so generously proportioned that we had some leftovers to take home for later. It's a great concept with a mix of rotisserie chicken and Latin flavors. The chicken was moist and flavorful, as opposed to being dry. They do have the option to cater, which I will highly consider during the next time I have a gathering! read more

Best rotisserie chicken what else can I say love their potatoes salad and don't forget the beans I have been eating here since they opened and I love their chicken read more

Very delicious rotisserie chicken, great value too.. finally found decent chicken near me

Best roasted chicken in town. Love the food and plus you can beat the price. My wife and I have been coming to the Marietta and Acworth location for about a year. We had recently had them cater our wedding as well and multiple small events. Food comes out quick and it's fresh. On top of that we know the owners and they are kind and down to earth. This is a must go to each for lunch or dinner with the family. Love it! read more

The best roasted chicken I had since moving here, it was seasoned very well and we loved the rice and salsa as well. Highly recommend!

My review is based on pre quarantine. This place is really good and affordable. For those of you missing pollo tropical down the road here is your answer. Fresh rotisserie chicken with a great flavor. Their prices are also very fair. Whole chicken with tortillas and salsa for u def $12? Sign me up. A quick and healthy option for those on a short time line for satisfying meal! Service is friendly. Support them anyway you can. read more

It's a good place to eat chicken taste great beans are ok rice it's ok berry clean Resturant 100% I will come back for sure

My favorite rotisserie chicken, hands down! The new location is bigger and cleaner than the original Marietta store. It looks like a former Pizza Hut, but remodeled to be nice and bright on the inside. The food is just as good as the original location. The chicken is so flavorful and tender, and the fresh salsa is amazing. They don't have many choices for sides, but everything goes together really well. Rice, beans, and old-fashioned potato salad make it feel like a picnic. So glad this is in this part of town! read more

I have to update my last review. Just hands down the best chicken around. I have never had a bad meal, experience, anything here. I always know I can come here for fresh good food. Everything else around here sucks and I mean no stars. I'm hoping they never leave. I always drive by and hope they are there when I"m hungry again. read more
