I always appreciate a pollo asado, this right here is a very hidden little gem ! Service was easy and sweet, a young boy took my order and looks like he's working with his mother maybe and grandma, food was amazing, very great flavor to the chicken and was perfect, not dry. I got the half chicken plate so you get to choose your sides of two. I got beans and potato, both amazing ! There was no seating inside but it's a small establishment and seeing their work space was clean , good ambiance. read more

Who's making birria? Not me! Now that I found this place at which I took a chance on today by way of all the good reviews. I was not disappointed. The people running this place are super sweet. The chicken was incredibly flavorful and tender. The separation in the pic was just from driving up back up the hill. I added oregano to my beans and they were delicious too. Can't wait to get my hunger back so I can have more. Gonna try their tamale next! read more

El Pollo Dorado - Bomb burrito - Mexican Near Me - Colton, California

I decided to try the chicken tamales this morning Tuesday, 12/09 and was not disappointed. A little heavy on the masa but the portion of chicken made up for it. I didn't get the name of the employee (female) but she was very friendly and had a nice smile. It's small inside, but accommodating. I was able to park right in front of the business since it had just opened. I will be back to try the whole chicken, prices are reasonable. Thanks for your customer service! read more

Saw a sign for a burrito combo for 9.99, so my husband and I decided to stop by. When we entered, we were greeted nicely. The owner asked if we've been there before and we said no. The restaurant was small and very clean. He offered us a sample and it was very good. When eating the food, it was very delicious. 10/10 would recommend and will be stopping for more food. Vi un cartel para un combo de burritos por 9,99, así que mi esposo y yo decidimos pasar por aquí. Cuando entramos, nos recibieron muy bien.

Al comer la comida, estaba muy deliciosa. 10/10 lo recomendaría y me iré por más comida. read more

If I could rate this place more I would. I grew up eating Juan pollo and this place is the first to challenge it for me. El pollo dorado not only has amazing chicken, but also the tamales are so FIRE and they have salsa that is both flavorful and perfect spice level (6/10 spice level) Do not forget about the bean they were much better than Juan pollo by far if we're comparing the two. read more

Great food fast service. The chicken is well seasoned and delicious. 1/2 chicken is my go to.

I started off by stopping by on Sunday's for a breakfast burrito and a champurrado and every time I've been here the service has been amazing. They're always friendly and prepare the food quickly. Today I ordered the chicken nachos and WOW, they're delicious! It's nice to support our small business so I recommend you stop by. read more

We finally had a chance to try this place. It was really fresh with plenty of food. We ordered 2 of the family packs and it came with 2 whole chickens, salsa, 4 large sides and fresh homemade shells, flour and corn. We got a 2 liter of coke as well. We were assisted with great customer service too. This place is affordable for feeding a large family. This will be our chicken place from now on. read more

There is a pollo dorado in Rialto where I'm from and this one is superior by far. Felipe the owner is such a gentlemen and the quality of the food is amazing. I eat chicken 4-5x a week and 3 of those times I come here. The chicken is always juicy and well seasoned. I'm not a bean eater but the beans here are so delicious I wish I had the recipe. If you haven't come here to eat yet, be sure to stop in the prices are fair and the food is delicious. read more

Finally was able to try this place after passing it a few times and man I've been missing out. I had the carne asada burrito combo and it really hit the spot . The cook gave me samples of both the chicken and carne asada since it was my first time, which I appreciated. Will go back soon! read more

El Pollo Dorado - Whole Chicken - Mexican Near Me - Colton, California

My husband and I stopped by this place by chance. We live in San Jacinto and were running errands in the area. We are a family of 7 and ordered a family meal of the chicken w 3 sides and tortillas. It was enough to hold us over for a few hours. My kids loved it as well. We've tried a few other places for rotisserie chicken but non to satisfy our cravings. It doesn't seem like much inside but I promise you the chicken beans and rice are good!! Chicken is well seasoned, beans and rice are tasty as well. If you're in the area definitely stop by read more

Love this place, it is a hidden gem! The food is delicious and the value is unbeatable. Make sure to try the homemade flour tortillas and say hi to Felipe when you are there! read more

Ordered chicken burrito, barely any chicken in. The flavor was okay. Had a coupon for free $5 burrito to try it out since I've never heard of it. They said it was an additional $5 for taxes. Really!? Ripping people off is not a good way to gain customers. Last and only time I'll be back. read more

Amazing roasted chicken! Had the burrito, super cheap for the quantity and quality of his food. The flavors of all the ingredients really stand out and taste delicious. The owner is extremely nice and polite, even offered a free meal on him the next time my wife and I go. Look forward to him adding a breakfast menu in the future! Also has the perfect salsa's and doesn't skimp out on portions! read more

I was fortunate enough to be able to enjoy a meal from this location. The chicken was extremely moist and tasty. The beans, rice and salsa were all wonderfully tasty and not bland like some facilities. I live in Riverside, but will be going out of my way to take one of my neighbors here to have lunch: it's that good. read more

I was in the area when I saw a grilled chicken place that grabbed my attention. I guess they over heard me talking to my wife explaining how the place is as soon as I hung up the you g lady asked me if it was my first time visiting? I said yes so before I purchased anything she said here try it! Let me know if you like it? I loved it I continued to wait for my order then I'm assuming it was the owner that was cooking gave me a taste of his new Steak burrito creation at that moment my brain exploded. I haven't been able to stop thinking about that burrito ever since! I will be going back today with my family to grab a couple of them! read more

First off the staff greeted me with a smile ! The food was outstanding the flavor and the quality of the meat was delicious! The food is very authentic and freshly cooked. I have been calling in orders for pick up during my lunch break and has always been ready when requested. The ambiance is definitely welcoming and family owned. I was provided with everything I need from utensils and salsas. A local restaurant and I am honestly blown away at the delicious food and outstanding service! Definitely a family favorite! I hope they keep thriving and cooking their amazing dishes. read more

Wow, I have to say, the food here did not disappoint! When we walked in, we were immediately greeted and asked if we'd been there before. We said "no" and started looking over the menu. My eyes wandered around noticing how clean and well kept the store was. I watched the gentleman behind the counter bustling around and the next thing we knew, he was bringing us over some samples! We tried the chicken, beans, rice and even a tamale! The chicken was juicy and full of flavor. The beans were perfectly cooked. The rice was fluffy and delicious. The tamale had a good ratio of cheese to masa and was the right amount of spice. Felipe was incredibly welcoming and we will definitely be going back! If you're in the mood for rotisserie chicken, El Pollo Dorado is definitely worth checking out! read more

I purchased a lunch combo that included chicken, rice, beans, and salsa. I requested a thigh and breast for a dollar more and a side of potato salad, which i did not get, which was paid for also. The rotisserie chicken was dry and had a chemical like smell, after taste, and burned as you can see smh. The rice and beans lacked flavor. The salsa was spicy, which I do enjoy. However, it was very bland as well. Very mediocre food, though I live in the area, I will not be returning. If this is considered good under new ownership I can only imagine what the food was like previously smh. Definitely will not be returning. Juan Pollo it is!! read more

Food was ok didn't realize how bad it was til I got Juan pollo a couple days after this and noticed a big difference.

Wow, amazing tamales rice and beans! I will be eating here often! Friendly and Great service!

Tried this place for the first time. I was greeted by friendly staff, which is hard to find sometimes. Lol The flavors were authentic and also unique. The sides tasted home made and they offer hand made flour tortillas. Flavor of the chicken was something I have never tasted at other roast chicken places. The chicken flavor was definitely elevated by the chicken seasoning. The meat was juicy and the skin was crispy. The price point was reasonable. Their family pack options cater to any size group. Highly recommend this hidden gem! It will not disappoint. read more

10 out of 10 Food was so delicious and flavorful i will definitely be coming back soon.
