What can I say about this place? They really know good chicken. I've tried this place a dozen times -- small orders and party orders. It doesn't matter the occasion because they always deliver on good, tasty chicken and awesome well-made sides. The beans, rice and potato salad are always a guaranteed, finger-licking, great sides. You cannot go wrong with J Pollo if this is the type of food you're seeking. Oh and the pico de gallo salsa lives up to the name unlike other places that fool you. Provecho read more

Best rotisserie chicken ever! Unassuming building and a really small parking lot but wow the chicken is so bomb. Super moist and the skin is out of this world! Crispy, flavorful, and soo addicting! Chicken comes with tortilla and salsa. The sides like rice and beans arent that great but you only come here for the the chicken. It's honestly better than el pollo loco, costco, even zankou rotisserie chicken! read more

Juan Pollo - Chicken Wings Near Me - Anaheim, California

Very disappointed with Juan Pollo. Was a place where we would go buy frequently as their quality has been subpar. However yesterday night as we got home and opened up the lid to serve our rice, there was a piece of glove which is disgusting but we understand that sometimes things happen so we left it aside as we ate the rest of the food then we went back with the rice obviously untouched and waited for the rest of the customers to leave out of respect that we had to this establishment. However once notified of the situation, however instead of accepting the fact that our food had a piece of glove we were met with denial and made us to be liars. We were given our money for the rice but damn I can't believe that's how your workers act, don't take responsibility whatsoever. read more

Juan Pollo for you, dos pollo for me. Formerly located on the corner of Beach & Ball, Juan Pollo occupies the former home of Busy Bee restaurant. I've passed by the old location a multitude of times, never thinking to stop by for some chicken. After seeing Juan Pollo featured on a recent "Eye on LA" episode, my interest was piqued and I schlepped over after my weekly visit at Forest Lawn. Specials abound! Tues/Wed Special - 2 chickens w/ tortillas & salsa/ $15.99 Lunch Special - 2 piece chicken (white or dark) w/ tortillas, salsa, rice & beans/ $4.99 Dinner Special - 1/2 chicken w/ tortillas, salsa, rice, beans, potato salad & medium drink/ $7.99 BOGO tacos For dinner, we went with the lunch special (2 piece white meat), plus a small potato salad- "Eye on LA" mentioned how Juan Pollo's potato salad is made fresh with real potatoes, which people rave about. I did, indeed, taste the freshness. The salad was creamy & light. I found it lacking brightness. Some relish would've really helped elevate the potato salad The breast & wing were large with delectable skin. The meat was moist on the outside, but sorta dry on the inside. The pico de gallo salsa (choice of mild or spicy) helped correct the lack of moisture. Plus, the salsa comes already packed in plastic cups. No salsa bar here. The chicken wasn't bad, but was on par with rotisserie chicken the likes that you get at Costco. The rice was good, though! Fried rice, with bits of chicken, really hit the spot. The beans were filling and had the right consistency of not too mushy and not too hard. Service was good. The cashier was friendly & cheerful, and quickly gave us more salsa when requested, Plenty of seating via tables. With no A/C, fans helped alleviate the heat, but not by much. Parking is in a small private lot and by way of street. The area is a bit dodgy, with derelicts in around the back alley way & surrounding area. I wouldn't stay longer than I had to, if you catch my drift. Scratch another one off the list. Juan Pollo offers up a lot of food for not much dough. No way replacing El Pollo Loco when it comes to the flavor department, Juan Pollo is a more inexpensive option when you're in the mood for chicken. Filling & cheap, I wouldn't go out of my way for Juan Pollo, but if I was in the area, it's definitely an option when the hunger pangs cometh. Recommend! NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM read more

Yelp Challenge 2015 224/365 Juan Pollo, I don't know Juan, but I know he knows his Pollo. We're talking, mouthwatering, flavorful thighs, juicy breasts and some long legs. Give me a plate of meat and I am one happy girl. That was pretty much all I ate, meat and 1 tortilla with salsa. Our dinner for two for provided us with tortillas, special pollo rice, beans, potato salad and salsa for $16 and some change with tax. The potato salad according to the hubsters who Yelps but doesn't Yelp said it was not very good, so you may want to skip it and ask for extra rice. The mini meal, as they called it, was plenty for our lunch, hubsters dinner and a lunch for him the next day. Located on Lincoln Ave between Western and Beach in Anaheim. Providing guests with plenty of tables inside, great customer service and delicious food. Compared to it's cousin, located about a mile away, Juan is way better. At least here they never run outta chicken, and its cheaper too. Throughout the week they have deals on chicken. Which is a win win, if your trying to be healthy you can pick up a whole chicken or two, and have zero guilt. You can use the leftover chicken in about a zillion different recipes. #708 read more

It's all about the POTATO SALAD which is made with Sour Cream!! Chicken and Rice vibe well too! #YourWelcome

I recently visited this place I would definitely recommend it to me their chicken is the best

This one star review is for the service. Called in my order and when I arrived paid and waited. Then two people who ordered in person got there order within 5 minutes and I had to wait another 15 minutes when I ordered over the phone 20 minutes prior. No apologies and she also forgot my plates! Horrible service! read more

This chicken is AMAZING!!! It's a little pricey without a coupon ($16 for one chicken), but literally the best chicken around. Plus, they do have plenty of deals. The chicken puts El Pollo Loco to shame. The flavor isn't just in the skin, and even the white meat wasn't dry. There's also was pretty great as well. I really liked the spicy one. I didn't try the sides yet, but I just had to comment on this wonderful chicken! read more

This is one of my favorites to me it's better thank el pollo loco... The potato salad is sooooooo good, the rice is hit & miss (sometimes not cooked all the way thru). The only issue I have is the place smells musty when you walk in... So that's why I'm giving a 4 star read more

Chicken was so juicy and good. This place is like a better El Pollo Loco, I will come here instead now. Service was wonderful when I picked up a catered order. Definitely recommend and coming back. read more

Let me start off by saying this is one is the best locations that I have been to before. Prices are great but what's even better is the customer service. That alone for me speaks volumes. Especially after a long day. The food taste amazing here. read more

Great food! Extremely reasonable and a D licious. They don't deliver I had to pick it up but it was well worth it!

I ordered 4 taco's and a chicken meal. I got 4 broken tacos and only 2 small containers of salsa!! Please go to Juan Pollo on Bristol! So much better read more

Same owners as the one that closed that was located on Beach. They just moved their location here. It's bigger & nicer than the other location. I'm so excited to see they moved here, 'cause it's much closer to me! Their chicken & sides hit the spot, post intense workout! I recommend the quarter chicken meal (I prefer all white meat), with the sides that include rice, beans, and potato salad. You also get a side of flour or corn tortillas & choice of hot or mild salsa. The hot one can be super hot, depending on the batch of chilis they used that day, but either way I love the spicy one. I usually don't like the skin on the chicken anywhere else, but at Juan Pollo that's their secret! The flavor is all in the skin! Don't throw it away! There's no drive-thru at this location. There's plenty of street & lot parking. It's located on the corner of Lincoln & Topanga, previously this was the Busy Bee location. read more

As a huge fan of chicken, I am always looking for alternative options to my beloved El Pollo Loco. I know El Pollo Loco is fast food but the flame kissed chicken that they serve is always cooked great and is hard to match. I have been longing to try this place for several years but the location that I was initially aware of closed up shop awhile back. Soon thereafter we saw another local business go under and a banner in its place saying Juan Pollo coming soon. All hope was not lost. After being open for several months we finally made it over here to give the place a try. I scanned their menu and saw that they offered many of the same varieties of options I love and opted for the traditional 2 piece meal (all white meat) with flour tortillas and rice and beans as the side (meals typically come with rice and potato salad but I substituted the salad for the beans). To my surprise the 2 pieces was more like 4 as the wings were also attached which is something you don't get everywhere else. The beans were good and the rice although a bit different than what I normally like was good as well. I love the fact that they give you three tortillas as this was the perfect amount for the chicken provided (El Pollo downgraded a few years back to only 2 and thus I have to order extra). The pricing for the meal was also a bit less overall and they also offer several great deals on both hard shell and soft tacos that I will be sure to try sometime soon. The restaurant itself doesn't look like much from the outside or inside but I assure you the food is legit and the portions are good. The service was good for a fast food type joint (fast and efficient) and the prices were cheaper for a larger portion of food. I have been by the place numerous times since its opening and the one major issue I see is they rarely look busy so I really hope they do enough business to stay here as this was an issue with the previous tenants. Although the chicken was a tad more on the dry side, this place has quickly established itself with me as a perfect compliment to satiate my chicken cravings. Although El Pollo Loco is still my favorite, this place is a close second and a definite step above El Pollo Norteno (whose chicken was far too dry). I will definitely be back soon. read more

Chicken is definitely larger than El Pollo. However, minus one star for the juiciness of the meat. You can get a great deal at this place. 2 whole chicken for under $15?! You can feed a family of 4 for 2 meals.. Also, the 1/4 chicken with tortilla, rice, and beans is only $3.99!! Wow! I am impressed. Enough food to keep you full and satisfied. I will def. come back here because they do cook up a good "dirty" rice and for the yummy chicken skin! (common' you know that is the best part). read more

Food and service is always great! Chicken is always fresh and juicy. Their "chicken" rice and potato salad are on point. The olives in the potato salad are a game changer! Oh, and let's not forget their homemade salsas! My only comment would be if the chickens could be a little larger. read more

4/27/2020 around 5pm... Horrible expirience here.. Ordered a full chicken they said it'll take 30 mins for it to be ready.. So when i arrived i told cashier I'm here for my order she said hold on one sec.. Then i overheard another worker tell her that she wasn't gonna have a chicken to take home to tell me that we don't have anymore chickens.. I got super pissed and i was about to wreck havoc but i calmed myself i didn't want to say or do something stupid.. The cashier came over to me and said that if i wanted to wait for my chicken it was gonna take 45 more mins.. I told her oh well i guess your family isn't gonna have enough huh and she got all read in the face and i just took off.. I shoulda got their names but i was so pissed that i didn't realize it.. Never coming back again the Hell with those workers hope they choked on the chicken lol read more

I didn't order a chicken and rice burrito! But that's what I got. I ordered the chicken burrito which comes with beans rice chicken lettuce and cheese which didn't have all that in it. I've been coming to Juan Pollo for a while now and I've gotten this burrito before and it was great hot, fresh lots of beans and chicken, rice, cheese and lettuce. But after picking up dinner last night and taking it home all it had was chicken and tons of rice in it. I work at a local hospital nearby and we often get Juan Pollo I don't think I will no longer recommend this place for you plus I asked for extra salsa and they wanted to charge me extra this time but last time they did not. I'm helping your company out by buying from you I could at least get one extra salsa. read more

There chicken taste good, better than the other Pollo places. There chicken pieces can be small at times, mini chickens. There mild salsa can be extra hot at times. There pricing is fair. I don't like they charge you .35$ for paying with a card. It's 2019, this should just be included in the price. read more
