    Don't order off their apps like Uber eats or DoorDash they will rip you off I was overcharged and customer service refused to give me the difference back It might be three dollars, but it's still this gaming people

    If you came here to buy crazy polonecks, it'd be El Polo Loco, but that's not what's here, at all. One of my favourite chains in America because they offer great deals on very delicious fresh chicken, and it doesn't taste like fast food at all, not to mention they're very yummy, especially the very spicy green sauce that you can ask for. That sauce makes it all worthwhile. I just get the half chicken dark meat (legs n thigh only) with no sides and it's perfect for pre or post lifting, and only costs about $6. Note that if you get white meat it's considerably more money. Everything they make here tastes pretty good and this location is friendly and tasty and generous. If it wasn't such a big box chain, I'd probably give a lot of them five stars.

    Great and reasonable food's for the price..... Mexican fast food with fast service and flavor Plenty of space for eating in or for take out or drive thru as well..... Clean and organized location with modern design for dining Decorative Mexican motif and again really good food for "Fast Food"!! Better than the same olde burger n fries routine!!! Don't understand why this place has low scores Plenty of people eating here and using drive-thru option too.

    I've been to El Pollo Loco before but this is the first time that I've got some chicken from them or at least from this particular spot. I mean wtf (fudge). I got a 4 piece mixed order of chicken for $9.99..... smh Do you see the pieces I got. They look look like leftovers.... after the bbq is over....Y'know! Don't get it twisted is there gonna get eaten (cause it's good) but damn.... El Pollo Loco .... man y'all got me this time... but I won't be back to this location for sure! Customer service is 50% of great food and the other % is actually all about the food and in this case this particular location lost out on a good review from me. I guess next time I'll go to another location .... or maybe I'll go to Popeyes instead... then I'll know up front I'm getting screw'd. As if 1:59pm... I am changing my review per the automated response I received from Manager Jessica B... ??? My official rating is now just 1 . You want me to provide more detail... like the pictures aren't enough... you not a cook/chef ???? !!!!! Cause if you was you could see the details. Plus an actual personal response would have been appropriate. Not looking for a free meal. Just an explanation. Thank you for not showing me that my dollars actually mean something in the grand scheme of things. You staff was cool though ... ignorance is not an excuse for a manager but don't take it personally cause I don't know you, it's just your skill set sucks.

    What a waste. Don't go here, even if you have coupons! It's a trick to get you here. Worst food ever. No taste, dry ass chicken, and bones! What kind of food is this?! I want my money back.

    look how gross preparing salsa on the counter right in front of customers ordering how unsanitary. the employee on the phone. This place is disgusting. Where is the owner? The manager? Where is corporate? This place needs to be shut down. This is rid that the owner does not care about how this restaurant is managed. Location: 5346 West Grand Parkway Richmond, Texas 77406

    Double avocado salad with shrimp and a small side of Spanish rice. $11.78. It was good but kind of pricey for fast food

    I give this place a three star because the food is great. The service is absolutely horrible. No one ever smiles or is ever welcoming. EVER

    The food is good but every time (not exaggerating) I drive through half of my order is missing. Don't drive off until you check your bag.

    A solid restaurant for something to feed you at reasonable pricing. Great for dining in and to-go…read more I personally enjoy their mixed kababs with rice and hummus (comes with pita bread). Other honorable mentions: philly cheese subs (both beef and chicken, depending on your preference), beef kabab wrap, crispy chicken burger, and you must absolutely get their fries to share (or not to share, whatever floats your boat). Honestly, haven't had any issues with any of their entrees. Just a tip that fries actually are crispier if you dine-in instead of taking to-go. They also have catering service, which is great for when hosting for my Muslims friends and knowing everything I order from Busy Boy's are halal. I haven't tried their crepes but my friends love it here and always recommend it. There was a time over the Summer when I would randomly find hair but I realized it's one of the workers who kept scratching his head with food-prepped gloves. Haven't had any issues lately since then but just a headsup. I've been coming here for years and it's really a good option if you want food that doesn't take forever, halal, and just laid back atmosphere. Just please clean up after yourself to clear the table for the next guest. If you ever get a combo (with fries and a drink), I highly suggest the lemon-lime at their soda fountain but just try a bit of everything if it's your first time.

    The food was too dry and there was no seasoning . They gave food with a few different sauces , I…read moreadded all of them and that's when the sandwich tasted better but overall didn't enjoy the food as much as I was hoping to. Maybe it was just an off day.

    I've door dashed the Italian beef sandwich and it was AMAZING! Today I had time to go to the store…read moreand had the Italian sausage and fries and THOSE were phenomenal. The restaurant was spotless. The bathroom was clean with a refreshing fragrance. The pickup window was manned by Jay and he was full of energy and had an awesome sense of humor.

    So I have heard a lot of different reviews about this restaurant so I wanted to try it myself…read more We went around 11:30 and there was practically two other people in the restaurant. You walk up to the front and you order which is really easy inconvenient. The staff was nice but not over friendly at all. And when you asked for something extra, they made you feel like you were bothering them. To me that is not good customer service My friend got the double meat Rodeo burger and I got the regular cheeseburger. We both got the combo which came with french fries and a drink. Our order took about 12 minutes to be completed and they called our number and we picked it up. We did have to ask for a fork and napkins as they were not out or available for us. At first look, everything looked really good so I was really excited to try this. Unfortunately, the burgers were super greasy. I personally do not enjoy eating a burger and grease running down my arms. That is just my personal opinion, but the burgers were really greasy. The french fries tasted stale and not very fresh. They were edible, but I would've liked to have had fresher french fries that were really fresh. The drink drinks were actually very good and very fresh and perfect on the combination of syrup and carbonation. I think I would possibly try this establishment again and try their hotdog, but as for the burger, they were way too greasy and weren't anything real special.
