    Juan Pollo was part of my family's pre-father's day shindig
    Ray M.

    The food here ALWAYS leaves me wanting more. The whole chicken and pinto beans are DELICIOUS!!! I am not really into rice but when I have had a small portion, the rice is perfectly cooked as well. Every item on the menu has always been well-prepared, fresh and TASTY! You can't get any better customer service than this place as each employee in my experience has gone out of their way to smile, welcome me and assist me with my order in a timely manner each and every time regardless of the number of customers waiting in line at this extremely popular location. The interior is rather small and 99% of the time you visit, you will find people waiting in line to either place an order or pick up an order. The employees here are very efficient and will usually have you in and out with your complete order within a few minutes. You can never go wrong with Juan Pollo

    Me and my wife have been coming here for years and love the food. It's better than any Juan Pollo that we've ever been to. So we're eating there this past Sunday afternoon and lo and behold. I see something crawling across the floor. a

    I've been coming to this Covina Juan Pollo for years and it's my favorite one! You walk in and the staff is always so friendly... Marlen and Olga are always really pleasant and kind! Today I went for my favorite meal they offer - The two taco combo! You might not see it on their main menu, but they do offer it. It's comes with two chicken tacos, salsa, one side and a drink for $9.99! A meal near me under $10 that includes a drink? You can't go wrong! Try the rice or potato salad for the sides or they offer salad. Their mild salsa has a great taste and unique add-ins that you don't find at other JP's. But the real star at this place is the rotisserie chicken. So savory and delicious! You can order for Dine in, take to-go, or get your catering done here! Their seating section has tons of tables, and they have air conditioning so it's cool in the summer. As always, 5 stars. We will be back soon!!

    Bright and welcoming entrance with clean tile floors, big windows, and a cozy, simple vibe--perfect for a quick, tasty stop.

    5 Stars Absolutely love this place! The chicken is always juicy, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. You can tell it's made fresh with care. The sides--especially the potato salad and beans--are delicious and complement the meal perfectly. The staff is friendly and quick, and the place is always clean. Great portions for the price, too. If you're in Covina and craving some amazing rotisserie chicken, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

    Improperly chopped up chicken.

    Update: after storing the chicken in the refrigerator, I noticed LARD on the bottom of the storage container, more reason to stay away from juan pollo.

    I prefer the chicken and sides here over the other chicken place. I said what I said. I like coming here when I am getting a single meal and also when I'm feeding a dozen people. The food is always great. 5 stars. That being said, the interior tends to smell like it lacks ventilation and the floor was cleaned with a dirty mop. Luckily I'm not ever in there too long. 3 stars. Overall 4 stars and I will be back!

    Some of the best chicken I've had recently came from a stop we almost didn't make at Burd Chicken…read more We were in the area for a softball tournament and by the time it wrapped up we were starving. This place happened to be on the way home, so we decided to give it a shot and I'm really glad we did. We ordered the lemongrass chicken and the crispy chicken, and both were excellent. The chicken itself was incredibly flavorful and cooked perfectly. The garlic rice was another standout! Fragrant, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The plate also came with a small cup of broth, which was a nice complement to the meal, although it was a little mild for my personal taste. The only downside for us was the portion balance. A large portion of the plate is filled with raw cabbage, which makes the dish appear bigger than it actually is. While the rice portion was good, the protein felt a bit limited. We're also not big fans of plain raw cabbage, so we ended up leaving all of it behind. If it had been seasoned or lightly blanched, it might have felt more like a thoughtful side rather than filler. That said, the flavor of the chicken and the rice alone would bring me back. If you're looking for something quick and tasty, this is definitely a great stop. But if you're coming in absolutely starving, the portion-to-price ratio might leave you wishing for a bit more.

I paid for extra hainanese rice and a side of sweet chili sauce. The sauces were amazing. Definitely order the sweet chili sauce. The rice was flavorful and not oily. Complimentary side of soup was hot and flavorful; also not oily. I thought the chicken was just ok. A little more on the drier side but it soaked up the sauces pretty well. I paid just over $20 after tax and that's without a beverage. In my opinion, a little more on the pricey side, given the portion. I think if I didn't pay for extra rice I would still have been hungry. They have complimentary water which tasted great, lie filtered water with cucumbers. Overall, good service. Island vibe theming inside. Easy to find free parking in front parking lot.

Well, IMHO, when the wings were smaller like from a chick...when they switched to ginormous wings, that's when I wasn't as big of a fan cuz I saw the chicken fat, hence the name Fat Daddy, but we still loved it. The skin was always crunchy without ever feeling oily. The meat was tender and juicy and had a nice flavor to it. All in all, it always tasted very buttery for all the right reasons. The staff were genuinely soooooooooooooooo nice, especially the darker gentleman with the ponytail (?) and accent and the really cute Taiwanese girl with beautiful porcelain skin. Always soooooooooooooooo accommodating to their customers. Just very sad that our favorite spot in the food court is gone. :(
