5/5 -- Fantastic BBQ Mexican Feast at Pollos Asados El Tio Roy Pollos Asados El Tio Roy delivered an incredible meal and an overall great experience. We ordered the four-meat combo ($34), which came loaded with sausage, BBQ chicken, four beef ribs, fajita, tortillas, beans, and rice. Every item was packed with flavor -- tender meats, perfectly seasoned sides, and generous portions. We were even given extra beans and rice, which was a nice touch. The service was fast and friendly, and despite the casual setup (plastic-covered tables and picnic-style seating), the place was clean and comfortable with soft music in the background. It's not trying to be fancy -- it's just serving amazing food at a great value. For two people, our total was $49 with tip, and we still had enough leftover meat for another dinner. You really can't beat that. If you're craving delicious BBQ with a Mexican twist, Pollos Asados El Tio Roy is absolutely worth the visit. Great flavors, great prices, and genuinely warm service. Highly recommend! read more

Pollos Asados El Tio Roy - Four meat combo $34 - Chicken Shop Near Me - Donna, Texas

For smoked chicken, this is the best kept secret in the State of Texas. This place is a hole in the wall and easy to miss but it has some of the best food at the cheapest prices in all of Texas. If you are in the Donna area of the valley - don't pass it up! read more

Order bbq in 1/2 -1lb. Offers fajita, mollejas, ribs, chicken, sausages, etc. Along with rice, charro beans & corn tortillas. Unfortunately they don't offer flour tortillas. But their food is delish! They take both drive thru and eat in orders. For my 1st time, really enjoyed it. read more

A must try! This was a GREAT find. My sister recommended it while she was working In McAllen for a few months. We were visiting Laredo and made the two and a half hour drive to visit McAllen and try this place specifically. When you first look at this place you think it's only drive thru but they have the perfect set up with picnic tables inside a very sturdy tent. Covered all around. It was a cold rainy day and we thought for sure we would be eating in our car but the tent was perfectly once. ( I did see they have high chairs available) A gentleman greeted us immediately and let us know we can sit anywhere. Within minutes a younger man came to get our drink orders and he was back in a flash for our orders. As you can see from the menu it's a simple menu. We went for the " For four" meal. OMG I can't tell you how great this was! The portions of meat were generous! The sides of rice and beans are tiny but the menus show additional for only $1. Price of meal was very reasonable. I would recommend first time do a mix so you can taste every type of meat. Chicken, Fajita, Rib and Sausage. This food is cooked where you can see ( blocked from customers to enter) I did observe the staff and this certainly looks like a family run place. They staff was laughing and looked happy. Might sound corny but I always say Food is better when cooked with"Love" The staff came around often to check on us. Even a customer asked if it's our first time, You will love it! He was not wrong! Oh one more thing this is open tent on entrance side so there were small birds flying around but Never bothered read more

See all

Quick, and quality BBQ. Service is always quick and service is great. They have anything and everything. Took the food to go. Is more of a pick up/to go place. But highly recommend. They serve a lot of food. Chicken ribs and fajita are good. It's a little out of my way, but worth the drive. read more

Great food at a very good price. The lady at the counter, Flor, was fantastic. Very friendly and helpful. This is not a fancy place by any means. It is one of those hidden treasures where that is unimportant. A lot of take out here as well read more

This place is all outdoor dining or for carry out. The meat here is great. I prefer the half rib/half fajita (or chicken). Portions are good and the staff have always been great. I'll keep coming back. read more
