Don't trust anyone who gives this place less than 5 stars for the food! Step aside Juan Pollo you have been dethroned! The food is perfect! I got the mini pack (1 whole chicken, beans, rice , and potato salad) with corn tortillas (maize) and hot & mild salsa. This is not an exaggeration I licked my plate so clean I barely had to wash it with soap, it was that clean! The rotisserie chicken was so juicy and every bite had flavor! The ambiance could use a little refresh but for the love of GOD PLEASE DONT CHANGE ANYTHING ABOUT THE FOOD / POR FAVOR NO CAMBIAS NADA DE LA COMIDA!!! I wanted to gate-keep this place but I can't do the business a disservice **that plate and chicken is clean!!** read more

This is a no-frills excellent rotisserie chicken shop. The owners are very hospitable, generous, and masters at their craft for a great price. You can feed an entire family, but also experience perhaps the most flavorful rotisserie chicken I've ever had! I've had a lot of chicken in my life, And this one is by far the most flavorful from the skin down to the bone. Come support Jose and his family! read more

Very great establishment, love the ambiance and the great hospitality they offer. Shout out to Chilango for being so nice and helpful. We will definitely be coming back. read more

I remember this place back in the 90s and it's still amazing! When I was little my mom would always get the two whole pollo deals and that would feed all five of us as kids. My personal favorite is the hard shell chicken tacos. And after almost two decades they are still here and absolutely phenomenal. read more

El Pollo Dorado - Hard shell chicken taco with salsa - Chicken Shop Near Me - Rialto, California

The sign "rotisserie chicken" caught my attention, from all the other Mexican restaurants in the area. When you walk in, even though it's a restaurant, you don't get the feeling that you want to sit down and eat. Something about the cleanliness or the dankness of it. Nevertheless oh, there is a young lady behind the counter who is efficiently chopping chicken. I ordered from this young lady has an elderly gentleman is preparing chicken on the other side of the kitchen. Good chicken. Delicious, as a matter of fact. The service is interesting. I speak Spanish, but did not, as I was greeted in English. Another patron came in after me, and "looked" like she spoke Spanish, so waa greeted as such. Her greeting was much friendlier, and more engaging it more engaging than what I was greeted with. Not worth the return. read more

See all

The best spot for authentic rotisserie chicken and the staff is so nice and friendly! I'm a regular here and never get tired of that signature flavor! read more

Really good chicken! The rice, beans and potato salad are all similar to Juan Pollo as many are. The prices on the online menu are way outdated! Expect to pay more! They have warnings about how spicy their hot sauce is. I thought it was closer to medium heat but it was good! Overall it was well worth the experience! I would definitely return. read more

I'm shocked I haven't reviewed them yet. We have been customers for over ten years. The owner already knows when we are calling in that we will be purchasing over ten chickens with the sides. He is awesome his prices are great and his chicken is our favorite. Definitely a must try. They are a small mom and pops so be clear this isn't about best customer service and fastest service around. Doesn't have the best AC to make customers comfy. It's all about providing good chicken and I'm good with that. read more

Best chicken in the Inland Empire!!! Been going there for years!!!! I highly recommend it you won't be disappointed!!!

The food was absolutely horrible. Dry and old. I'm not sure why ppl like this place. Very low standards.

Good flavored pollo a tad dry but above average...The salsa was hot as hell...the devil himself would be envious buyer beware. read more

This place is a total dive but they always seem to be the best places to eat. I've past this hole in the wall many times and decided to give them a shot for a catering we had planned. "WOW" was I impressed!!! Everything was fresh and delicious. Glad I found this place. read more

Been coming to Pollo Dorado for years. Always friendly service and great food. Best rotisserie chicken in the universe!

Went here & roooooooaches everywhere, they didn't think I see but cancelled my order !!! DONT EAT HERE !!! It should be shut down

Went in the place and started to order a family dinner but the woman that was taking my order refused to turn down the radio and I mention that i couldn't hear her because it was to loud as I walked in there was a woman trying to order and she had a problem because of the same issue the radio was too loud where is the woman was ordering I asked the radio could be turned down so she could hear us but the woman taking the order along with the man and the other woman behind the counter did nothing about it so I started to put in my order and thought about it and if they couldn't hear me it would probably get my order wrong so I asked for my credit card and cancel my order and left this place because if they are unwilling there to please the customer this is not a place for me to spend my money This is the second time I've gone in this place and probably will be the last time because they are rude I am very own experience in the food industry I also got a B rating because the place doesn't seem to be clean read more

I LOVE this place! Been coming here since 2002.... different owners now but same bombness!!!! I live in whittier now but whenevr i come visit i make sure to ALWAYS stop by and get me some of their nacho deluxe and barritos!!!!! read more

Very good rotisserie chicken and sides. We've been coming to this location since 97 and never had an issue. That should sum up everything.

Self proclaimed home of "The Golden Rotisserie Chicken"! First, don't be put off by the graffiti on the outside of the building and the fact that every single store in this little strip mall has security window bars not only on the inside, but the outside is well. (Okay, you should be a little put off) I went during lunch today and felt reasonably safe. Honestly, I would never go here after dark given those clues. My Mantra: As long as I don't see "187" (the penal code number for murder, in case you were wondering) spray painted on the side of a building, I'll go in. Probably. Anyways, the most striking thing about this restaurant is the fact that it is almost a spot-on clone of the Juan Pollo chain, from the menu, to the combos, to the side orders. (Whoever is in charge apparently didn't think it was important to find a way to distinguish themselves from the competition.) The chicken was very good, and although they were close, I still think the sides of rice and potato salads are better at Juan Pollo. Hell, if you didn't see the sign on the way in, you would think you actually inside of a Juan Pollo, seriously. I guess the bottom line is, it's fast food, the place has tables in case you actually want to eat there, and it has an "A" rating. Like the Juan Pollo chain, aesthetics are kept to a minimum. What more can you ask for? If you bring a first date here, it's your own damn fault if she never takes your calls anymore. read more

I freaking love this chicken, their potato salad, and rice. Yeah its probably not located in the safest area but if you mind your business everyone else will mind theirs. From time to time I will pick up some food for the whole family when we have a get together or something and everyone one in my family loves it. They are very similar to Juan Pollo is anyone has had any. Sometimes the chicken can be a little dry, but I hit them up and ask them to get me a tender and juicy one, I dont want no old ass chicken. read more

I orded chicken for takeout and was not disappointed. The chicken was really juicy and had lots of flavor. It sorta taste like juan pollo! So that could be a plus or a minus depending on ones taste. But to me, I really like it. The location of the restaurant is a different. Would've been 5 stars but it's not the best location. I say. It's more of a take-out restaurant, not a dine in. Just my opinion read more

they do not take phone orders or from my understanding they take phone orders but wont prepare them until you get there which to me kind of defies ordering through the phone to just kind of pick up and go so if you need to pick up your food and go this is not the place read more

The only bad thing is the area. The food is really good. Taste just like Juan Pollo. Very fast and great customer service! Will definitely be coming here again! read more

Great chicken very similar to Juan's pollo juicy chicken and great potTo salad . Wish they delivered it's about 3 min drive from my house . Also down fall I hate that they give you a little bit of tortillas when u order so much chicken read more

This place has amazing chicken better than any rotisserie chicken in a 20 mile radius. The only issue is they don't have vegetable choices everything is carbs with beans rice potato salad and tortillas. They should at least at minimum have green salad just some type of vegetable to make the meal more healthy. But that is not a big deal at all I go here all the time. My only issue is the man that's cutting up your chicken never wears a mask and always chewing gum and talking to the nice woman at the counter while he's cutting up your chicken. I'm afraid particles could be coming out of his mouth while he's talking over your food especially with covid-19 now he should wear a mask when handling food. It is is awfully hot as well makes me wonder if the food is at a safe temperature. Just seems to need a little bit more food safety in there not sure if they are held to the same standards as big chains being a Mom and Pop restaurant other than that they are really nice people and serve great chicken. read more

Like many have mentioned this place is a baby version of Juan Pollo very good chicken and sides literally the same, but their prices are a little cheaper so if you want to save a little I'd recommend this spot and the owner are pretty nice so service is good. Although I do prefer to take my meal home I have dined in, and it was a little stuffy inside so I asked if maybe I could crack their door to let some fresh air in and owner told me yes or I can go ahead turn on a/c so that was nice that they went out of their way to make us feel more comfortable so we could enjoy our meal. Location is not the greatest but given I live nearby I don't mind because it's close to home and I've been there a couple of times and have never witnessed anything crazy. read more

I have been there a couple of times and i was told that they are out of chickens. . how is that possible.!!! . dont know how they are staying in business .This place is bad. not clean. dark,old. no a/c .employees are sweaty . I will never go back to this place. read more

This place is so bomb!!! The chicken is so fresh and most and juicy. It for sure is worth the drive. Don't let the location fool you!! It's definitely worth a try. My husband loves it and he regrets only getting half a chicken instead of the full. We will be coming back soon. read more

These people are CROOKED! I have been in several times over the past couple of years. I always order a large potato salad. Every single time I've gone, they say they're out of large containers but two smalls are the same size. It definitely is not. One time I could believe, but every time? They know what they're doing. They're cheating their customers. The food itself is exactly like Juan Pollo. Don't go during summer because there is no air conditioning. read more

This chicken is the tastiest I have had and it makes me feel so happy to write this positive review.I have for many years boycotted pollo loco so I love this mom & pops joint.Flavor is easily better than pollo loco and I prefer I over Juan pollo.Just wish they had location close to me. read more

This is the best place to go if you want great tasting fresh chicken at great prices. I tryed this place out about two years ago an have been going back ever since. The chicken is 2nd to none, also I love the beans salsa an tortillas. Another great thing about El Pollo Dorado is the chicken salad, they really hook you up with alot of chicken an a overall big salad for the price you can't beat it. I only noticed on negative an that was the chicken salad will sometimes have little bones in it, i'm one of those ppl that if I find something in my food that is not supposed to be there it ruins my appetite lol. I know its only little bones but it freaks me out when I bite down on one, anyway try El Pollo Dorado you will love the chicken. read more

If you're not a snob...this place is amazing. Yes, the neighborhood isn't the greatest; get over it. Great customer service, great food, good prices. The owners go out of their way to make customers feel comfortable and ensure they leave happy. I'll keep going here for as long as their doors are open. read more
