I prefer dark meat! Hey, I'm talking about my Pollo. This Juan Pollo offers a lunch special - two drumsticks, one thigh, yummy potato salad, rice, tortillas, salsa and a medium drink. Everything was good as usual and portions of salad and rice were very generous. I usually get the other lunch special but it's like half a chicken and it's way to much food. If your looking for a good meal at reasonable pricing this is the place. On another note, they offer a great take out selection for catering of parties. read more

I found a healthier alternative for my parents who couldn't do without their KFC every week. I believe their original concept of whole roasted chicken is really what they do best. I don't get their tacos, burritos or quesadillas because I don't think it's their strength. What's good is their roasted whole chickens, hot salsa, rice and their fifteen thousand calorie potato salad. If I buy for myself I get the 2 piece chicken lunch special with 2 breast pieces, corn tortillas and get Jamaica (Hibiscus flower tea) to drink. I only eat 1 breast piece and the 2nd I wrap up to take home. I generally get two meals out of the lunch. When I buy for my parents I get them the 2 whole chicken meals which come with salsa and a couple of sides. They like the pinto beans and potato salad. As I mentioned earlier the potato salad is rich, dense and has to be loaded with calories. My parents seem to love it. It's a little too much for me. I never eat in at any of the locations because I'm always on the go and the table seating is not real comfortable. If you stick with what they do well you shouldn't be disappointed. I like that this place has healthy options and offers real value for the buck. read more

This place sucked. Personality is everything. The girl at the counter seems like she hates her job. The chicken was so dry. They forgot to put pieces of chicken in my rice? I had to go back. I've had Juan pollo and Irs delicious- but for some reason this chicken was just dry. read more

Juan Pollo is superior to El Pollo Loco in every way. Their Lunch Special for $6.20 incl tax is a steal. They claim that you only get 1/4 chicken, but frequently they give you 1/2 for the same price. And their Potato Salad is fantastic. read more

I called in ahead of time because I know there's always a wait and the young lady who answered the phone told me there was no wait time yet I still ordered before getting there and waited a few min in my car about 10 min ... I walked in and 2 people in front of me ordered the young man at the register seemed to be new I walked up to pay for my order only to re-place my order because the order wasn't taken.... so I had to wait even longer ... I had almost forgotten why I stopped going here .... read more

So mad that I ordered 30$ worth of food and found a bug in my food. I called and all they did was come up with excuses on how it couldn't have been them since they "watch" everything. The manager offered to swap out the food but why would I want a more food with bugs in it. So disappointed as I've always had them cater in the past. I won't even look there damn direction any more and best believe I'll be spreading the word. If I found a roach in my food I wonder what other housekeeping rules they aren't abiding by. During Covid don't take any chances with this damn place. read more

ZERO STARS!! I ordered a CHICKEN quesadilla and was brought a small microwaved CHEESE quesadilla. No problem, I let them know and the man fixed it. However, when I got the CHICKEN quesadilla it was very small- two small flour tortillas, one on top of the other, and microwaved!!It looked terrible- nothing like the delicious quesadilla's that are crispy, off the grill! It was soft and blah looking, and barely any cheese!! So I refused it, and asked for my money back. The guy in the back, wasn't too happy that I refused it, and he was speaking in Spanish, and I hear him say bitch! I got my money back, and quietly announced that I would never come to this place again! Poor food, poor service, and calling customers names! I'd give the whole experience a below zero score! Very unfortunate! read more

Recently moved and sadly this is our closest JP, have tried it several times now. Every time things are dry or don't taste right. One visit we watched as the cook microwaved our items. Gross. I'm not sure if they don't get enough visits but food tastes old. read more

The service here sucks! They take really long just to pick up a pre order. And they have no people skills.

Ordered before closing, ordered a big rice sm potato salad. Got big potato salad sm rice... the rice had no flavor there was no color no chicken pieces no green onion... really disappointed paid $40 very dissatisfied ... won't be ordering from the colton one again... read more

Went to Juan Pollo and haven't gone there in a while. After having the food there it just reminded myself why I don't go to Juan Pollo anymore. It use to be good food but the Chicken was really dry. read more

My wife and I went to this Juan Pollo in Colton; THE WORST CHICKEN WE VER HAD, we each ordered a half of chicken lunch; the portions were so small that we think they gave us Quail (codorniz) instead of chicken; the taste wasn't there.. last but not least the young girl at the register who took our order was so unfriendly that looks like she is a very unhappy person. Now just took it as an experience and will never consider going back at least to this one location. read more

Love their food, but walked out because we stood at the counter for 10 mins without any service. The employees made eye contact with us but did not say one word or come to assist us. Horrible customer service... read more

Is this a knock off Juan Pollo? I love Juan Pollo but this place sucks. First, the girl at the counter looks miserable. The two young guys in the kitchen are cracking jokes and seem careless. I ordered the family pack and im told they're out of beans. Ok sucks but then i ask for two rice amd one potato salad. I get home and see i was given one rice amd two potato salads. Then i notice they skimped on the rice. The recipe is not the traditional Juan Pollo rice. It was missing the green onion and chicken....wth. Next time ill drove over to the JP in Riverside. Its not worth the drama here read more

I come for the Salsa, Rice and of course the Chicken Exclusively found in the IE Enjoy! I have for years :) read more

Good place for Mexican style roasted chicken. The potato a salad is good. It's a good goto place for chicken rice beans and tortillas for a family meal read more

Came here and ordered a family pack for my family (of 5) and let me tell you .. it was filling and satisfying!! Chicken was delicious and we got rice, beans, and potato salad as our sides which were made with LOVE. Everything was delicious! We had a lot of leftovers so i believe that the family pack is meant for 6-7 people. Definitely recommend this place for a family meal or just a lunch break meal. read more

I'll admit this is the only Juan Pollo I've been to personally but I can each time I've come here it has been excellent! If you like cheap eats and eating healthy, they do a great job of both here. I love their whole chikens and their rice is just awesome! And unlike a lot of places, reheating their stuff does not come out greasy or blah like many things that get taken home and recooked. read more

Very good chicken and the rice is to die for!! I usually ask for double rice and have them hold the beans. I have eaten at this location many times as well as the location on 5th Street in San Bernardino and really enjoy their food. Fast and friendly service can't be beat! Their prices for the lunch and dinner specials are reasonable considering how much quality food you receive. read more

1 Star for service. Went to order dinner at 745pm, they close at 9pm. When I walked in a big sign said "dining room closed ". Then maybe they should close earlier then , the employees working were so inconvenienced by me. I was coming in over an hour before they closed!! Rude service ! read more

In my personal opinion! I think Juan pollo is really good always mouth watering especially when your super hungry.But it's a rather good place to buy chicken, potato salad, rice and of course the beans! :) read more

Food is good, I try to support local businesses. I am VERY VERY disappointed and won't come back. I will go out of my way to another Juan Pollo to spend my "business lunch daily budget". I accidentally used my personal credit vs business credit card and charged $90. I asked for the transaction to be VOIDED and recharged. The store informed me they do not have authorization to could a transaction. Mistakes happen all the time, this is not acceptable. I also called yesterday letting the location know I will be in and ordering a large order. I was told they could not fill my order and did not have enough food and was asked to call the day prior. I told the location I did. read more

Chicken here is always on point. Juicy and tasty. However the rice and potato salad is a hit and miss. They are always lacking flavor. Service is horrible the woman at the register never smiled and stared me down. read more

Let me start off by saying.. I love Juan Pollo! I eat at the one near Santa Fe Springs all the time. However.. just went to the one in Colton... we called ahead to make an order for 6 people. He said they couldn't do that over the phone because they close in an hour. Whatever, no big deal. But he said don't worry because they had plenty of chicken left. We showed up less than 10 minutes later and there was a decent line. And they told the person up front they were about to run out of chicken. Because of that a few people in front of us left and luckily we were able to get just the right amount for us. But the guy behind us who also called ahead and they promised him over the phone that they had enough as well. So because of them he made a wasted trip. We asked for plates and they only gave us 4. We asked for 2 more and they got attitude and said "Mam, you cannot have six plates". Quite rudely. We bought the family meal, so I guess you're only allowed to have a family of four at the Colton Juan Pollo. Oh.. I almost forgot. They messed up the order 2 people in front of us. They did try to run out and find them but it was too late. That family only got half their chicken. Long story short... our food still tasted great.. but definitely not a good experience. read more

Don't really know what to say. Walked in to get food, stood at the register for over 10 minutes while EVERY employee noticed and ignored us. Finally we just left with absolutely zero acknowledgement from any of the employees. Very disappointing. read more

Excellent, tasty food! I was afraid to try this place because the reviews are not so good, but I had great service. I was greeted by the gentleman behind the counter upon entering, then helped quickly and politely (when it was my turn). My food was ready quickly. The food itself is so flavorful and different. It tastes like home-made food... like it was made special. My family liked it alot more than El Pollo Loco, and we got a lot of food for the price. read more

I've been to other locations where the chicken was juicy and flavorful but this location was just a disappointment, the chicken was so dry it was difficult to swallow and the rice had no flavor and was dry as well. Will definitely not be back read more

This is the worst Juan pollo. every time I call to order ahead they say they're not taking phone orders or there's no one in just walk in and then I come in and have to wait because they never have rice ready Or there's 6 people waiting. Even now In quarantine they don't take phone orders and we all stand around in here waiting. They tell you twenty minutes wait and it turns to 40. The potato salad is always hit and miss sometimes it tastes like it's gone sour. Going to the one in Moreno Valley from now on. They take phone orders and the potato salad is always awesome there and the drive time is less then waiting time at Colton. read more

************************ I love Juan Pollo!******************************** Here, you will find some of the freshest char-broiled chicken around. The lunch special is awesome : 2 Pieces Chicken, Potato Salad, Rice, Salsa, Tortillas + a Drink. There are also Meal Specials if you want to divide and conquer with others. The potato salad, beans, and fresh salsa are delicious, as well as the warmed tortillas. If you are seeking a low-frills meal, this is the place. P.S., I've eaten at the Upland, San Bernardino, Corona and Colton establishments...(The Corona location is disgusting and smelled like dirty Lysol water-in fact there was a murky bucket, I thought I was goiing to throw up, just awaiting my order ) read more

Pros: The chicken is perfect. The potato salad is awesome, as for the rice and beans, NASTY! There good at other locations But this particular location has a smoker on staff and somehow cigarette ashes seeps in to the beans and rice. There is one female worker who knows what she is doing but, she is usually chopping the chicken and making the tacos. They always have some My spacer young guy taking your order in between texting his homeies. The place smells like pine sol so I don't recommend eating here. I recommend that you get the chicken to go and exchange the beans and rice for potato salad. This will make your meal a lot more satisfying read more

Don't know about any other day but a young lady named Holly gave me the best service ever, super friendly. The food speaks for itself. But Holly made it that much better. THANK U read more

This review is for Juan Pollo 33 located at 1220 Washington St A10, Colton,Ca. 92324: today Jan 8th 2020 @ 10:41:01am I purchased at Jumbo Pack meal to take to a bible study at my church. I handed my food to the kitchen staff and sat down. When the food was laid out to eat I and everyone else saw dried chicken. It was clearly not fresh, left over from the day before. I went back to speak with the server, he said he remembered me and asked me how long did I have the chicken in the car! I did not drive to New York! just 11 minutes to Riverside by freeway. Doesn't matter, it was bad food. As a suggestion, check your food if it is take out, or better yet, take your money somewhere else. read more

Was not busy but it is a Monday, was helped with my telephone call and the gentleman was straight to the point and efficient. He helped me upgrade my order and save money. They forgot my extra salsa I purchased 2 more and he gave me 4 total for forgetting to put the 2 in I thought that was nice. Food is good no complaints. Will return. read more

Juan Pollo never gets old. From the juicy chicken to the best potato salad on the planet, this place is our go to for many family functions. read more

Portions were great, 1lb burrito is alot of rice &beans with little to no flavor, tacos were but dry. I won't eat here again.

Not really thrilled with this place. First they get our bill wrong by five dollars and then I discover that their nachos are, "do it yourself". The kicker... how do they forget the cheese for nachos? read more

Had a family event catered from this Juan Pollo, they delivered a tray of potato salad that was rotten and refused to refund the money not exchange it. Avoid them, there are plenty of other options in the area. read more

If you have gone to other Juan Pollo locations, don't go to this one. At this location the potato salad is nasty way different than the other locations. As well as the rice and chicken I had to spit it out. I can't believe how horrible the food was. Always been a fan. But this location was horrible. read more

There service was slow and they ran out of tortillas and no more burritos like come on.
