Very delicious food, my family used this place for Easter 2026. We had 25 guests and the food came in clutch! Rotisserie chicken, beans, rice, potato salad, tortillas (corn and flour) and salsa. Very fresh and delicious. Also the leftovers were delicious too. Very competitive pricing as well. Very good customer relations. Highly recommend this place! read more

I found this cute little gem hidden in Chino Hills. It's owned by the cutest Hispanic family who are so welcoming. I really loved the authenticity of the restaurant. It's very easy to order with a simple menu, and everything is super flavorful. I would give it a 10 out of 10. I can't wait to go back. read more

First time here with a friend that recommend me to try their fish n chips. Pretty good! They use sea bass fish and a very light breading so basically it melts in your mouth with a crunch. Dip it in that tater sauce, so good and light! Tons of fries with it as well. I also got me a watermelon drink. They use real fruit for their drinks. Very refreshing! Will be back to try other menu items. They have new menu items with tons of options including their rotisserie chicken. Friendly staff. Definitely a hidden gem and small business owned. Check it out! read more

I had the pineapple-guava Agua Fresca here and it was really tasty. My husband had the two-piece chicken lunch plate with sides and he said it was moist and had good flavor. I was pleasantly surprised to see they've added seafood to their menu now too (shrimp, tilapia fish filet, and sea bass fish tacos). Friendly and fast service, with some indoor seating as well. read more

So delicious! Under new ownership and they are so sweet! All of their food is so good and delicious! We tell all of our family and friends about this place and they all come out of their way to come here too! Lots of new menu items too! read more

This place is delicious and the customer service is great! I've tried the chicken, but came this time to try a couple of the new items. Mojarra frita and fish & Chips. Wow, the fish & chips so flaky and melts in your mouth. Very good. The mojarra was very flavorful, came with rice, beans, and salad. It was a very good and a great price $17.99. Can't beat that. Will be back to try more of the new items. read more

It's been over 11 years since I left my previous review. So, it's time I updated it. I now give this place 5 stars! I no longer live in the area, but have eaten here 3 times in the span of a week. I then ate El Pollo Loco and preferred SJP waaaaaay more! The chicken is seasoned and cooked to perfection, the beans and rice are great, and the employees are so friendly! It's become a little pricier just like everything else in California, but that's okay because the food is great and I love supporting our small businesses. Thank you, San Juan Pollo, for helping make my homecoming better! read more

The chicken was average, I think it needed more flavor. It tasted a bit bland. The beans were delicious. The service was good. The staff treated us nicely. I walked in and picked up so I didnt pay to much attention to the ambiance. read more

So, this is my second visit and I have to say, if you like Juan Pollo, then you'll love San Juan Pollo. It's a better version of Mexican rotisserie chicken. Chicken is super moist and well seasoned, they have pico de gallo and salsa roja, both of which are better, and their potato salad is better. read more

San Juan Pollo - Took a photo too late. This is what's still left from my 2 chicken dinner combo. - Mexican Near Me - Chino Hills, California

San Juan Pollo is a local gem. It's run by a super friendly duo who make you feel right at home the second you walk in. There's something comforting about this place -- it's simple, welcoming, and all about the food. The chicken is tender, flavorful, and cooked just right. The sides are just as solid -- fluffy rice and a potato salad that's clearly made with thought: the potatoes are cut into smaller and the carrots are shredded in for just the right texture. Today, I ordered the dinner special -- you get half a chicken, three sides, tortillas, and a drink. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by! read more

San Juan Pollo - Dinner special - Mexican Near Me - Chino Hills, California

This was my second time visiting San Juan Pollo after being recommended by a loved one. My first visit was great--the chicken was delicious, and the staff member at the counter was courteous and polite. That positive experience is what brought me back for a return visit. Unfortunately, this second time was extremely disappointing. I dealt with the same person as before and placed a very simple order: a whole chicken, cut in half and packed in two separate boxes, along with a small side of potato salad. I made sure to repeat my request multiple times to avoid confusion. The menu lists a whole chicken at $15.99 and the side at $2.50--so I was expecting my total to be around $18.50 with tax. However, I was charged $35. When I questioned it, the employee claimed I had ordered a whole chicken and a half, which I had not. After some back-and-forth, he removed the extra half chicken, but the revised total still came to $25. When I asked why it was still over $20, he casually mentioned it was extra for cutting the chicken and using an additional box--something that was never disclosed up front. Apparently, there's a hidden $5 charge just for splitting the order. This was never communicated until after I brought it up, which feels extremely shady and deceptive. Whether times are tough or not which he brought up, adding unannounced charges and hoping the customer won't notice is not ethical business practice. I paid the total (including the $5 hidden fee), but I made it clear that I would not be returning. It's sad that they'd rather try to sneak in a few extra dollars than retain a loyal customer. To future customers: double-check your receipt and be very clear about your order. Ask about any "extra" charges up front. This experience turned what could've been a go-to spot into a hard pass. Very disappointed. read more

We visit this place once or twice a month. Several months ago we purchased a jumbo meal where we got an XL potato salad. XL rice and XL beans. When we got to our destination and prepared to eat we found that the potato salad was spoiled. We trashed it and had our meal without it. Just today I went and got the Mini meal. When I got go home, again the potato salad was spoiled. Any reputable restaurants normally would and should check their prepared foods to make sure they are not spoiled. The only time they would not need to do this is if the product is made fresh daily. Obviously theirs is not. I was pretty upset and so I called the restaurant. All they said was oh. Then for me to return the potato salad and they'll exchange it. I didn't get any sense of concern from the person who I was speaking with. I can't help but question the freshness of their foods. It's always hot inside the restaurant. They always have half baked chicken in the rotisserie, with the rotisserie sitting idle. The kitchen look very unsanitary. Definitely will avoid visiting this restaurant. read more

I finally got around to try this place after years of passing it by. What more to say but really good chicken, perfectly cooked, same style and similar flavor to Juan Pollo. Grabbed a whole chicken to go. They give you a bag of tortillas, a pack of pico de gallo, and holy smokes, a pack of dark red chile salsa that will burn a hole through you. If you need a quick meal for the family and you are in a hurry, this would be a good choice. Very friendly family owned restaurant. Enjoy! read more

The food is great! People are polite. Proud to say this is the best chicken I ever have. And I love chicken! Try it out.

I love coming to San Juan Pollo for a quick dinner. The chicken is always juicy and flavorful, very tender. Absolutely love the potato salad and chicken rice for the sides. It's a somewhat small shop, but there is seating inside. Will be back for more! read more

Everything is so wonderful in this great chicken restaurant!!! I need to go in at least once a week!!!! The staff are complimentary and the restaurant is so clean fast fast fast service!!! The piece de resistance is the amazing POTATO SALAD!!!!! It is so awesome I order more than needed to keep in house for me!!! The chicken will never be dry so keep more too for another day and you won't be sorry!!!! Think chicken burritos the next night!!!! YUM!! read more

Their chicken was fine and not dry but for me a little too expensive for me to justify the portion. Their service was quick.

Some of the best chicken I've ever had. Fresh and well seasoned, skin crispy and meat juicy. The tortillas could be more hot but it was a great meal . read more

I can't say enough good things about this place! San Juan Rotisserie is the kind of spot that reminds you why supporting local, family-owned businesses matters. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality--it's clear the owners care deeply about their food and their customers. The menu is simple and it's always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You can taste the difference. The prices are fair, and everything feels homemade in the best possible way. If you're in the area and haven't tried San Juan Rotisserie yet, you're seriously missing out. This place deserves all the love and support. Five stars, hands down! read more

Yummy rotisserie chicken! I ordered a family meal here which came with 1 chicken beans, rice, potato salad and tortillas and salsa! It was really tasty and fresh! My family enjoyed the meal and the owners were so fast and nice. I also called ahead to order. Will come again soon! read more

Loveeee this place! Reasonable prices! Service is always excellent, some of the nicest people ever work here!! Love coming here they're always so welcoming. And the food is amazing chicken is so tender it just falls off the bone, and the sides pair so well. I probably eat here at least 3 times a month, never gets old. The restaurant is very clean and never too busy, there's also seating inside. I'm always in and out of there within 10 minutes max. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for a new chicken spot! read more

I've been coming here for years and this is the first time I've ever been disappointed. Came in for the salad and when I brought it home, there was so little in the box. I could tell something was off because the bag was so light. In addition, I didn't get any whole pieces of chicken like I used to...just scraps. The salad was warm, wilted and really wet. I think they may have changed ownership which is sad because the couple that used to own this establishment was so wonderful! read more

San Juan Pollo - Mexican Near Me - Chino Hills, California

My family eats here at least once a month. The chicken and sides are great. The rice is cooked in chicken broth and the potato salad is really good. I personally add Toom garlic dip to the chicken. It pretty much tastes like Zankou with the dip. My only complaint is their hours is a little weird. I think they close at 7pm on weekdays. read more

I'm glad this place survived covid, pretty sure it's family owned. I got the lunch special ($11.69). It's half chicken with several pieces of tortilla, a tiny side of rice, potato salad and a drink. The chicken is moist and the skin is crispy. The rice and potato salad are good, portions are tiny though. The staff is nice. The yelp check-in they have is outdated, they don't take it anymore. The place is clean. read more

In English, San Juan Pollo means Saint John's Chicken. But to the throng of seven customers waiting patiently to place their orders at 6:48pm on a TUE evening and the hundreds of foodies who award this establishment its stellar 4.6 Star YELP score, we loudly proclaim "San Juan Pollo (S)ain't Juan Pollo or Pollo Loco!!" Last night was my first ever visit. Owners Gustavo and Elizabeth Pineda ingratiated themselves to me with their cheerful demeanor and welcoming smile, even though I was their final customer of the day and I'm sure both were depleted. The quality of their rotisserie chicken is nonpareil, simply superlative. The skin is the color of toasted apricot, moist and succulent flesh and that indescribably yummy flavor that is vaguely reminiscent of vintage Juan Pollo. I say "vintage" because any fan of rotisserie chicken will tell you that Juan Pollo has slipped a step or two over the past fifteen yrs since their heyday. The potato salad warrants a "B-minus." As presently composed, it comes off a bit dry and underseasoned. Mind you, I'm a proud Irishman and consider myself an authority on world class potato salad. I had purchased San Juan Pollo's Extra Large container for $9.29 so, determined to salvage it, I dumped it into a large bowl and fixed it by adding a heaping TBSP of Best Foods Mayonnaise, one tsp of apple cider vinegar, one tsp each of salt, black pepper and paprika then whisked it all together. I strongly suggest the Pinedas contemplate retooling their potato salad w/ my humbly suggested ingredients. The salsas are first rate. The mild salsa features freshly slivered tomatoes, onions, cilantro and (seedless) jalapeños. It's hotter cousin is also excellent. My wife is from Michoacan, Mexico and prides herself on her fluency and capacity for deeply spicy peppers + salsas. While I could scarcely SMELL Mrs. Pineda's spicy salsa without tears, Leti actually called me from work to rave about both the chicken and the peppery salsa! The resulting potato salad is much better seasoned, stick-to-the-ribs tasty and a less dry, more creamy/larded mouthfeel. The restaurant itself is small but cozy, and the owners keep it sparkling clean. While I'd normally deduct at least half a point for the less than ideal potato salad, I found myself adding it right back after I was so impressed by the warmth and friendliness extended to me by Gustavo + Elizabeth. I urge all fans of rotisserie chicken to run, don't walk, to San Juan Pollo! You'll concur with me, that this food is, indeed, "Juan in a million." read more

My co worker and I have been here a few times. We hit this spot ever time we're in the area for work. The lunch meal consists of 1/2 a chicken, 4 tortillas ( corn or flour) choice of 2 sides (beans, potato salad or white rice and a drink for 12.99. Considering what all the fast food places are charging, this is way better in price and food quality. Need one of these on every corner! I highly recommend this place. read more
