    Grilled chicken, yellow rice & sweet plantains.
    Nathalie G.

    Pollo Centro you have been CONSISTENT in every way...quality, flavor, portions, pricing, service & cleanliness. I'm a creature of habit so I've only ever had the fried chicken with rice & beans but the last two times, I went with the 1/2 grill chicken & yellow rice (yellow rice with peas to be exact). KFC WHOOOO?! I'm ashamed to say it took me this long to write up your review on here...my apologies. Keep up the GREAT work, so glad you chose our city for your new location 5 Below: grill chicken with yellow rice & a side of SWEET plantains ( are )...have leftovers for 2 more meals.

    fried yuca

    Lady in the front was so sweet, I didnt catch her name, took the time to explain to us any questions we had with items displayed at the place. Food and service were bomb so no complaints. Not pictured : tres leches cake and chicken empanadas which were my favorite things there besides the pork that I snapped a pic of. Careful though, everything is fried here so watch out for heartburn! (lol)

    Good food, but don't go too late at the end of the day because they aren't as fresh but all in all the food was fantastic

    The food was really good. Fried chicken was great and the serving sizes were on point. Good service.

    A lovely restaurant, classy & approachable with a lively atmosphere & fun vibe. Great, tasty…read moreSpanish tapas, we usually go during a birthday or celebration. Food is adventurous & bold; memorable meals over the years: Fried Goat cheese with charcuterie meats, manchego cheese & french bread, have to do The Bocado Experience for 2 or 4, Jamon Iberico, Pato (duck pastrami w sherry glaze), tuna poke, atun de bocado (seared yellowfin saku tuna), braised pork belly, Spanish octopus, mussels in cream sc, twin mini Kobe style beef burgers, venison, fried calamari, lollipop lamb chops, seared beef tenderloin, classic paella & Paella de Mariscos, & baked flan for dessert. Just so fascinating - their chefs can put out such tasty small plates so quickly, each packed with such fresh & exciting flavors, always cooked to perfection (never over or under cooked). Get the sangria pitchers, bar is always packed & hopping. Dining room just got a refresh, but was beautiful even before with a great atmosphere also. Our least favorite was the rabbit (way too many small bones to pick out).

    Okay, well. DO NOT EXPECT TO PHOTOGRAPH YOUR FOOD & HAVE YOUR CAMERA EAT FIRST here (this also…read moreincludes the cocktails). The food presentation just aint it.....there is none. I would suggest to them using smaller appetizer platters so the food doesn't look like it got slapped on them straight outta the pan with literally no care & respect for the ingredients. The Gambas Al Ajillo deserved more than 2 pieces (NOT SLICES) of croutons, The pork belly & polenta dish was unbalanced & there was hardly any polenta to be evenly shaped between a party of 4, It was the saddest looking octopus dish I've ever seen next to a pile of spices potatoes. Just because it is a tapas wine bar, doesn't mean they're given a pass to ignore how appealing it looks to guests. Hit or miss for the mai tais (the bartenders need to work on their ratios). Bcuz why am I can just order a screwdriver with the amount of orange juice we were given. HOWEVER, everything is edible & incredibly delicious. The authentic Spanish flavors absolutely shine thru!

    I started in this "hot chicken" craze with Dave's Hot Chicken. Nu Chicken takes this to a new,…read morebetter level. They have the same really good chicken fingers, pickles and bread. But they also have their Moon Boy Sauce. That's good stuff. It's good on the chicken, true. I've had some leftover and used it on a salad. Delicious! They also have healthier options. I like the slaw. My favorite meal there is the Loaded Fries. Fries with slaw, chicken to your heat level, and Moon Boy Sauce. Try it. Service is always fast. And you can see it being prepared in the back. Very clean. I also like that this place is (somewhat) local. Yes, it's related to the Nashville Hot Chicken franchise. But, it's related to the local Nu Kitchen up the block.

    Probably won't be back…read more The chicken was very good crispy, flavorful, but that's about it. The mac and cheese is absolutely terrible, 1/10 almost inedible. The fries tasted stale to me, my bf liked them but it was a no for me. The slaw was also pretty good, but they put way too much on the sandwhich which left it kind of soggy. The number one reason why I won't be back is due to the fact that they charge .50 for sauce... while i completely understand business need to make money, we ordered $60 worth of food and tipped - they couldn't have spared ONE extra sauce? seriously? To make matters worse - We ordered two tenders on the side - come to find out the ONE sauce that "came with the tenders" was half full LOL. very odd to not give one extra sauce and not worry about the two quarters... such a turn off. service was fine. food is made fresh. lots of places to sit. overall not super impressed.
