i'm not a big rotisserie chicken person because it can get very dry. not here sir! this is going to be my go to lunch place until i get sick of eating it three times a week. the prices are pretty amazing. for 6.99, you get more tortillas than one person could ever finish (i think 5-6), two large pieces of chicken, rice, beans and salsa. i ordered the lemon butter and garlic sauce and wow! the chicken was so flavorful and juicy and the skin was a perfect crisp. it didn't taste oily or fattening. it was like el pollo loco on crack. at a cheaper price. i'll definitely be going back to try their other menu items: quesadilla, tortas, taquitos, etc. minus a quarter star because parking here is a little tough but circle around for a bit and you might find some street parking. read more

Nothing special, very unauthentic Mexican food made by Mexicans. Lettuce in the burritos, what's up with that? Might as well stop at Del Taco nearby. read more

I currently live in San Antonio, but I am originally from Orange County. I am home for the week and the first thing I went to eat after I landed was SUPER POLLO! There are not a lot of foods a crave... I am excited to say Super Pollo is one of them. They always serve perfectly grilled, moist chicken. What I love most about the chicken is the crack garlic sauce they pour over the chicken once it's off the grill. If you are a garlic lover Super Pollo chicken is for you! read more

I was excited to try this place after seeing all the high reviews but the chicken was too charred for me. I got the half chicken combo with the garlic sauce. The rice was very good but the chicken was too overcooked for me. read more

This is my favorite place to eat. And I am so lucky to have found it. My parents and I came across this little gem accidentally after shopping a warehouse sale in the area over a year ago. And we are so glad we did. Upon first impression, this place has a little beach shack vibe. Very casual but very warm and inviting. It is small inside but it's cozy and also, they have outdoor seating which is really nice during the Summer time. Not only are the people who work here very friendly (Eddie) but they happen to make the best roasted chicken. I order mine with the works:garlic, butter, and lemon. And their beans and rice are delicious! I can't get enough. Alsoo I must stress on how amazing their salsa is. It really is one of a kind. Another thing I should mention is how delicious their fish tacos are. My mom and I both love them. Overall, I highly recommend this place. read more

I loved my breakfast burrito... the muchaca (beef) was so good. I'm not a morning eater but I sure needed somthing solid in my stomach for such a long day ahead. Yummy! I love the lunch menu as well read more

When my friend first took me here about 7 years ago I didn't think much of it by looking at the outside. But he said to trust him, and I am sure glad I did. Some of the best chicken anywhere. I love this place. The prices aren't bad either. I try to hit this place as often as I can. read more

This place smells so good - i think its the roasting chicken and garlic smells that are so enticing. While the food might be tasty, the second time I went there I got a chicken burrito to go and unfortunately there was an aspirin sized pebble in it! Needles to say I wont be back. I go to BC broiler instead. read more

After glancing over the other reviews I think I may have to try it again but my friend and I both left satisfied but unimpressed. I figure it is just that I don't think there is better mexican in the area than ETB although Super Pollo is good. read more

The chicken is great. Lemon garlic butter all the way. They also make a mean salsa. There's no place to sit unless you go at 3 pm and your car won't it in the four parking spaces in front which car barely fit a scooter. The reason they get one star off is buying a whole chicken is $16. That's too much and makes no sense since their combo plates are the same price as everyone else. But I eat here anyway, I just get the combo with rice and beans. read more

This place is right off of Superior and Newport in Costa Mesa and you need to be aware if it's location or else you may miss it. The restaurant is very small and only has like three tables inside. Most of the space is the kitchen, so this place is designed for pick-up-to-go orders. The chicken is very good here and the pricing is a little less than at Charro Chicken. The birds and large and cooked with care, so you won't end up with chicken jerky, but moist and juicy chicken. They also serve it with garlic butter sauce, which adds to the great flavors. Also, they serve really good taquitos here and you won't go wrong with ordering them either. read more

Best flame broiled, garlic butter lemon chicken in OC!

10 words: Garlic Lemon Butter Chicken, Beans. Rice. Awesomeness! You must try!

It was soooo damn good... hole in the wall place but the food was just amazingly delicious. As a Mexican there are certain flavors I crave and Super Pollo had it. read more

Genuinely surprised. I enjoy their food, but honestly had a terrible customer service experience with them. Placed an order, got home and realized one of the combos I ordered was missing. I called and the lady lied to me twice about how we forgot to take the bag. I know this was a lie because she said "we are making your order now" I get it, we all make mistakes, but lying to me is not ok. I got there and asked what could be done to compensate me for the time and hassle and she did nothing. To be fair, this was a to go order. Maybe dine in fares better. read more

Great little chicken spot! A little pricey, but honestly that grill clean every night is tough and we customers have to consider that. Friendly service is always nice too! Just shows that you don't need much to run a successful restaurant as long as you provide great food, friendly service, and fair prices we'll keep coming back! read more

The staff are helpful and friendly. But what you really want to hear is the food is delicious. I live across the country from the store so it's taking some time to work through the menu. I disappoint myself when I keep ordering the chicken burrito but it's my kind of comfort food. Unless you're looking for sushi, you - will - love - it. read more

We live right down the street, so we like to eat here a lot. The chicken is really very good, get it with lemon, garlic and butter. I've always stuck with the combo plate, although my boyfriend likes the burritos. Agree with previous review, plan to take out because this place is tiny. read more

My boyfriend and I used to drive by this place all the time on our way to Omelette Parlor and we would always laugh at how ghetto and small it looked. Eventually, curiousity got the best of us and we looked it up on yelp. Turns out that there were quite a few rave reviews so we decided to check it out and turns out, the reviews were right. This place has some of the best chicken I've ever tried. I used to have El Pollo Loco when I was younger because I liked roasted chicken instead of fried, but this place blows El Pollo Loco out of the water. The chicken was juicy and had so much flavor in it. I got the quarter combo with dark meat and all the flavors (they'll list some stuff, just say yes). The drumstick especially was juicy and flavorful and really made me tempted to order another one. However, the chicken came with rice, beans, tortillas, salsa, a roasted jalapeno and I ordered fries on the side so I was plenty full by the time I was done. You can make your own little burritos or tacos with the tortillas (either corn or flour) or just dive into the chicken as is. Both ways are amazing, so you can't go wrong. The fries were average, nothing major, but tasted pretty darn good dunked in the thinner salsa. The total for all of that food was under 9 bucks! Seating here can be a problem because there were only three tables inside and three tables outside. We didn't have a problem getting a table, but we can for a late lunch so the rush had already passed. This is definitely one of those places you wouldn't think to go into unless you were brought there by someone else or you read all these great reviews on Yelp. It's absolutely worth the trip, so pack up the kids and go to Super Pollo! read more

My GF had been wanting to try this place for quite sometime now; I normally like to stick to familiar places or places I have heard good things about. So we Yelped it, and saw overall great reviews. I ordered the carne asada burrito, an my GF the chicken burrito. All seemed fine until 4 bites in, a gnarly hair uncovers it'self from the tortilla blanket, which pretty much ruined everything. I then glanced over by chance to see the sweaty cook wearing a cap 4 times too small for his head, so I knew where it came from. This would have gotten a way better review if this place was semi sanitary. read more

i wish there were more of these everywhere! i got the chicken quesadilla and i really liked that they were not stingy on the chicken at ALL!!! and might i add, the chicken was on point! i was not expecting it to taste that good....because you know when you go to alerto's or alberto's and any mexican eatery.... chicken is usually dry and just whatever. nuh uh! not here! it was juicy and very tasty. and their red rice is to die for!!! this is why i wish there were more locations because i have never tasted such fluffy red rice!!! it was perfect. the service was super friendly. it's a very small place with little seating but the food is just amazing you can't really say anything bad!!! read more

The chicken is good, the service is OK. The parking for this place sucks and there is usually a line. We eat here 5 or 6 tines a year so it must be good enough. read more

Wow. Never have I tasted so much flavor on chicken before. The garlic is so savory and compliments the tender juicy chicken very well. This place is a block down from me... Very dangerous. read more

Love this place! Has never let me down with the flavor and food quality. Yum yum this places is. Keep up the good work.

Great tasting chicken. Amazing customer service. Good prices. Only negative is that they no longer make potatoe salad.

This place is heaven. My salon orders it everyday Tuesday-Saturday and it's always delicious! For a bunch of girls always worrying about eating healthy, the whole chicken combo is perfect. Great prices and friendly staff. read more

I would say this was pretty dang good! My boyfriend loves this place because he lives in the area. We went for burritos and they were tasty. Not a ton of seating but was good enough. read more

I've been coming here for over 20 years and my only complaint is that they've run out of chicken on more than one occasion. This place is a small, family-owned hole-in-the-wall with limited parking and a VERY small amount of tables and seats and a somewhat limited menu. keep all of that in mind. HOWEVER.... the food and the service here is the absolute best. Forget about El Pollo Loco. This place buries it in a second. The chicken burrito.... well let's just say you won't want one from anywhere else after having Super Pollo's. The whole chicken dinners are the best! I recommend extra butter and garlic. YUM!!!!!! read more

Great chicken awesome nachos, great work done, clean place, I recommend this to other fo sure if your in the area,

I was in Costa Mesa and wanted an a breakfast burrito. I always judge a place by the quality of their Machaca! I enjoyed an excellent Machaca breakfast burrito. Super Pollo will be my new spot when I want breakfast in the Costa Mesa/Newport Beach area. read more

Super delicious. Like garlic? Add it to your chicken. My favorite choice is the Super Quesadilla. Yummy.

I've been here for Mexifast (Mexican breakfast) a couple of times and it's nothing special, but it will fill your stomach for poquito denairo. read more

This tiny restaurant doesn't look like much, hole in the wall, 3 tables inside, but this where you will find some of the yummiest chicken you've ever had. It's basically the authentic version of El Pollo Loco. Grilled chicken covered with a rich garlic, lemon, butter sauce paired with tortillas, rice, beans and salsa. The chicken is moist and flavorful, although there was one occasion where mine was a bit dry. Definitely a comfort food to try. read more

I've been meaning to try this place for a long time and finally got around to it. It's a cool little place with a nice patio and the staff is very friendly. I ordered the quarter chicken combo and it came with beans, rice, and tortillas on the side. The chicken was good and tender, but I wasnt a big fan of the lemon garlic butter flavor. But overall it was a solid meal and I'm glad I tried it. I left full as well which is always a plus for me. Note: I hear from a friend that the chicken nachos are the way to go here. Next time I would probably try those or just get the chicken plain. read more

This place is the real deal if you like El Pollo Loco. It's super clean, well made food and fresh unlike the corporate crap.

Average chicken place. Nothing to go run home about. The guy at the front was a dick...that almost sent them to a 2 rating but I dont want to give Yelpers an unfair bais. This place is ok for chicken. I'd still prefer a Pollo Loco for similar stuff but with slightly better quality and flavor. read more

Awesome food. always fresh homemade taste. If ya like homemade Mexican food this little hole in the wall is it. I've been coming here for lunch for 25 years.This place is too small for big groups but I usually get takeout so that's okay.Not a fast food taco garbage place..Try the chicken chili relleno.Or the homemade chicken soup. read more

Love picking this place up when i dont feel like cooking. The garlic lemon butter is great! Very yummy!!!!!

Food is good, especially their chicken burritos...customer service stinks especially if they are busy. Went to grab a burrito on a sunday around 11 and there was 4 people in front of me and 4 people working in the kitchen and it took 35 minutes to get a stupid burrito! Ugh! Don't come here if your in a rush. Just about told them to take the order and forget it. read more

Charro chicken plus the boiling crab fusion. Wow. You guys kicked your chicken to the next level. Bravo my Super Pollo friend. Till we meet again. read more
