    a box of food
    Ashley L.

    I ordered through the Pollo Campero app, but be warned this is a ghost kitchen that cooks other food as well. I placed a future pickup order but the app is buggy in that you can only pick a time after the current time of when you're placing the order. Despite the scheduling, my food wasn't ready for another 30 mins, and ended up being cold by the time I made it home 10 mins later. Onto the food itself, the chicken was tasty but fairly oily. The skin had a good crisp to it. The plantain sides were sweet but could have had crispier edges. The chicken comes with a choice of dinner roll or 2 tortillas. I had a reward through the app to redeem but wouldn't go out of my way to get this unless the pickup times become more accurate.

    I've ordered pickup in the past thru a third party app and they always take at least twice the time they say they will take for the food to be ready. Today I ordered thru their webpage and I think it's even worse - order was placed at 12:30 and my food was ready more than an hour later and not within 15 minutes as they always claim. Chicken is rather good, but all the waiting and hassle doesn't make it worth it.

    First time ordering food here and we ordered a 25 pieces combo meal. We chose corn salad, coleslaw, 2 french fries and plantains. We picked up the food at a digital kitchen on ruff drive. The chicken smelled and looked good, but it was not crispy. It had good flavor tough but it just wasn't crispy. The corn salad was good, and it came with diced peppers and feta cheese. The coleslaw was okay, it tasted like regular coleslaw with no special flavors or ingredients. The french fries had good flavor but it also was not crispy and soggy. The plantains were decent, but it was not fried and a little greasy. Overall, the food was decent and I would give it another try since I've heard good reviews.

    Heavy Mayo in the coleslaw.  The 8 piece meal came with 1 coleslaw and 3 of these mini rice bowls.

    Nothing special here IMO. I tried the 8 piece fried chicken meal. I forget what I paid but it was almost $40 out the door and it wasn't worth the money. Sides - coleslaw and rice. Portions were small including the mini chicken pieces (did I order nuggets by accident?). Heavy mayo based coleslaw was edible. Rice was tasty but again, serving size was too small for the money. Fried chicken flavor wasn't bad, just not exceptional. I really don't think it's much better than kfc. If you're picking up at the kitchen just be aware that the parking lot is busy with a lot of food delivery folks in and out in a hurry.

    Food was exceptionally delicious! My husband and I ordered the personal meals, 3 piece with two sides. We had plantains, yucca fries and mashed potatoes. Brought a moment of happiness and Guatemalan memories. La comida estuvo excelente! Ordenamos las 3 piezas de pollo con los extras que dan de elegir. Escogimos plátanos, papas de yucca y purée de papa. Nos dio un momento de recuerdos felices de la tierra tanto, linda Guatemala.

    It obviously doesn't compare to the one in Guatemala, but it was pretty flavorful so I'll give it that.

I am not sure what the sauce was, but it was good. I think it was tomato and cream based. I tasted the cheese, and I could see the plantains, but I think more would have brought out the flavor of plantains. There was a good amount of shredded chicken, and it was very flavorful. The chicharron was super crispy and it added a nice crunch. And it came with two quail eggs which was a nice touch. The empanada de pollo was also good. There was a good amount of shredded chicken, and the additional sauce was good. Even though I cut it in half, the shell still held its shape. The ambiance is food truck; there are no seats, but the truck has a counter that you can eat at if you want to eat there. Parking around where they stopped wasn't great, but you can park at the Safeway lot across the street, just be careful crossing the street because traffic flows fast. The service was friendly and fast, but the new business has some technical issues. I could read the Spanish, or you just fine, but I wanted to access the English menu to find out more about the business, but when I scan it into the QR code, it lead to a locked Google document. Besides this, they are a wonderful starter business with good food.

    The first time I tried Chikin Drip was back when they were a food truck. I thougjt that it was…read morereally good the first time I had it. This time, at one of their brick and mortar locations, there were many pros and cons. For one, I love that they actually put the "hot" in nashville hot chicken. Their medium packs a small punch unlike similar spots which are overly mild. Second, the fries and sauce here are amazing!!! The thick crinkle cut fries are not my favorite style usually, but here they make em so crispy with a soft pillowy center. Also so well-seasoned. I also like the seasoning on the hot chicken- it's less salty than most places and more of a real chili pepper flavor to it. Now for what wasn't my favorite: the chicken was a tad bit on the dryer side and the batter was an in-between of crispy and stale. The loaded mac came with both fries and mac n cheese. The mac itself was a bit bland, but everything out together was not bad. They had what seemed like no AC or proper ventilation when we went and it was so warm! Had us sweating by the end of the meal from both the spice and the heat. Workers were bare minimum of taking your order, and it took around 10 min for everything to come out. Overall: 3.6/5

    I got the Drip #3 and it was amazing! The chicken was really good, but the sauce honestly has to be…read morethe best part it went perfectly with the chicken. Anna was also so kind when she took my order tonight. She helped me choose which combo to get and made the whole experience really easy and welcoming.
