Anndrea R.

Half chicken meal was undercooked and pink. Pretty sure me and my 1 year old son got sick from this, he was throwing up after he ate and i had an upset stomach as well. Very disappointing as i used to love Juan pollo. But this location just isnt it.

Narrow pathway

This restaurant is not family-friendly, especially for those with young children or mobility needs. We were made to feel like we were creating a hazard simply because we had two high chairs for our one-year-old and three-year-old, along with a stroller that was tucked as close to the wall as possible. At the time, we were the only customers there and were simply trying to feed our children safely. The restaurant's layout is extremely inconvenient. The walkways are very narrow, and if you're using a stroller or wheelchair, you have to go around the block to access the rear entrance. Even once inside, there is very little room to move around comfortably. To make matters worse, a staff member approached us in a confrontational manner and told us to make more room for other customers, despite the fact that we were already doing our best with the limited space available. The narrow layout is a design issue, not the fault of families trying to dine there. The food was also disappointing. The portions were small considering the high prices, and they charge extra for nearly everything, including salsa. A few hours later, the food tasted sour and no longer seemed safe to eat. Between the poor customer service, overpriced food, and impractical setup, it's easy to understand why this restaurant has such low ratings.

Whole Chicken fit in this small container.

We choose Juan Pollo over Pollo Loco since I recalled the chickens appeared to be bigger/healthier at Juan Pollo. Today, we had a 'whole' chicken. They should disclose it is a Baby Chicken. Appears, the quality has definitely changed. While the chicken had good flavor, it isn't more for your buck. The baby chicken fit in the container (pic below)

It was fast and the tacos were loaded. Worth it and the price. The ingredients were fresh and the chicken was tasty. Service was fast. And the restaurant was clean.

Chicken Burrito

Great price, chill staff, and INCREDIBLE food. Come thru immediately. Used to be a different Mexican spot around 6 or 8 years ago. This address still never disappoints.

First time here but definitely not my last. Chicken was hot, juicy and cut perfectly. The potato salad, rice, and beans were bomb.

Always fresh food and great service. The chicken is always nice and juicy and they're side dishes always taste freshly made.

Their potato salad, taste like homemade, and not something that you bought in a deli full of preservatives.

We really wanted to like this place more, but overall it was just an average or less average…read moreexperience. The portions were ok, and the margarita was large and refreshing and good actually, but I had to ask for it 3x, but the food itself was only okay. Nothing we ordered stood out enough to make us want to return. We sat down and it wasn't busy. 15 min later they came and took our order. The hostess that came to us first was attentive he was really the only one. The biggest disappointment was the customer service. Throughout our entire visit, there was very little attention from all staff. We rarely saw our server, drinks went unrefilled longer than they should have, and there was no effort to check in and see how our meal was. I never once was asked if I would like another margarita. Hospitality can make a huge difference, and unfortunately it was lacking here. This is huge for me in a sit down. The restaurant has a fun sports-bar atmosphere with plenty of TVs, but the restroom also needed attention and wasn't as clean as expected. Overall, not a terrible experience, but not one I'd go out of my way to repeat at all. There are too many great Mexican restaurants in the area for this one to make it back onto my regular rotation. Probably won't be returning at all.

Strictly only for the drinks and Chips & Salsa…read more.. I have a thing for classic Mexican music playing, good service even at an empty bar and the simple drinks made right. Paloma: Tequila, Squirt, Lime, Salt Charro Negro: Tequila, Lime, Soda Water, Coke Gets no better than this... thank god!

amazing food above expecting service…read morechilled atmosphere. Additionally Menudo VERY good, clean and plentiful!!

Unfortunately, this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences we've had…read more When we arrived, we asked if we could sit in one of the booths and were told they were being reserved for the band. The "band" ended up being one man performing, so we accepted the explanation and sat elsewhere. A few minutes later, another couple walked in, asked for a booth, and was seated there without any issue. That immediately made us feel like we weren't valued as customers. It was Taco Tuesday, and we were excited to see fresh tortillas being made. Unfortunately, instead of serving fresh tortillas, they opened the container holding older tortillas and plated those for us. We ordered three different meats, but when our food arrived, every single item was cold. The tortillas were so cold they had become hard and stiff instead of soft and fresh. When we mentioned it to the staff, we were told the food gets cold because they have a fan blowing directly toward it. That's not really an acceptable explanation Between the inconsistent seating, poor customer service, and cold, flavorless food, the experience was extremely disappointing. We left feeling unwelcome, and the food itself was far from the authentic Mexican cuisine we were hoping for. Sadly, we won't be returning.

The art on the walls was fun and piratey, and the booths were comfy. Our server was perfect. She brought everything we asked for and even offered extra tartar sauce to take home with our leftovers!

But everything was so good. Husband kept stealing my fish sticks!! The homemade tartar sauce was delightful and the cinnamon sugar chips with the fried ice cream were a great touch. We will definitely return when we next need a taste of the sea.

The burrito is as big as my arm. The sample platter which had nachos, taquitos, and cheese sticks was super delicious. The chips they used for nachos was totally thicker than the ones they give as an appetizer which I found interesting. A little bummer that they weren't willing to give refills on the chips and salsa. I feel like they did it bottomless when we went the last year. Perhaps times are tough. It also feels like service quality dipped since last year. Staff were less friendly and excited. We were there around 6:30 and we were pretty much the only customer there when we arrived. So it was a bit hard to stomach on how slow water refills were. We asked for water once and the server said sure and went straight to lunch lol
