El Pollo Dorado

My wife and I like to try different Mexican food eateries. We had heard nothing but positive reviews about this place. We showed up about 530 pm. We knew it being Taco Tuesday and the tacos being $1, not to expect to much. We ordered 10 asada tacos. What we got was the tiniest bit of meat that was so salty that we couldn't eat it. The salsa was kept in a cooler and self serve. I don't mind self serve but.... People standing over it with half smoked black and milds in their hands and picking their butts, was to much. I won't return, not because the food was bad, but because it was very unsanitary. I have worked in a dozen restaurants in my lifetime. I know it's hard work and harder to keep things clean and well kept. This place didn't even try and that's not acceptable.

$1 Taco 🌮Tuesdays! Al Pastor was good. Small portion but value at $1. Just buy more. Horchata wasnt too bad. They use natural wood 🪵to grill/smoke the chicken 🍗🐓which we didnt have a chance to eat. Be forewarned, the place is run down 🤪. The business focus here is good food and not capital improvements to the building. There are no places to sit down to eat. You either take home 🏠, eat standing up 🧍🧍‍♀️🧍‍♂️, or eat in your car 🚗 . This place meets the dictionary description of hole in a wall. This is real Mexican 🇲🇽 food, this ain’t your Taco Bell or Chipotle. This place gets packed quick right after opening at 11am on Tuesday.

I love their carne asada French fries. They just raised their prices, but they are worth it. Sometimes I will even buy an extra order of something to have it as a meal later in the week.

We love the flavors and smoke. However we got sick this last time. All of us. Dude walked in dogs out. Freezer doesn't look like it keeps food very cold that's attached to the build. Omg what happen? Invest back in your own building.

I’ve driven by here many times and been blasted in the face with that aroma from the meat that’s cooking on the grill. One can only drive by so many times before giving in and grabbing some tacos. The tacos were good and I’m glad I finally decided to give them a try! I’ll be back to grab some chicken next time. I believe you’re able to purchase a whole or half a chicken. Perhaps this weekend mmmm.
