★★☆☆☆ 2.0 WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR · Nov 2025

Came in around 7pm for dinner ( place was empty ) waited at the counter about 8 minutes before someone came to take my order. Food came out really fast Chicken was hot. Fries were cold 🥶. The skin on my fried chicken was extra crispy and tasted really good but the chicken was really greasy and didn’t taste that good my yuca fries were cold and had no flavor the beans were ok Honestly the best thing I got was the mango drink I’m usually a fan of Pollo Campero, but this one really let me down

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Eddy Bretado · Nov 2025

Overall the food was fresh and pretty good and there is value to their pricing. Dollar theater I was not able to enjoy the worst what should we drink like an unsweetened iced tea how's the weather in the service and everything else is fine and the restaurant was clean and air conditioning with lots of parking easy to find and easy to get to

Went on opening day, drive thru was long so we went inside. Waited for a while too but that’s understandable since it’s their first day. They have no more slow roasted grilled so we got the fried chicken and it was really good! It’s our first time to try this restaurant and glad that they opened here in Lake Elsinore. We ordered all the 6 sides but didn’t get the fries and was given two of the rice. The sides are good! Will definitely come back again and again. More to try next time

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Naomi Macknight · Sep 2025

Where to start this was my first time trying this food. for a location that just open very disappointed. Went at 8pm wasn't greeted when we walked in, ordered a 8 piece meal half grill half fried cause they said we could. Wanted mac and cheese but apparently this location dont carry mac and cheese but it is in there menu ok understandable as they might have not received it yet cause there new. So we went for the rice no flavor what so ever and under cook is an understatement. Drove all the way home which I live in menifee and noticed I got all fried chicken. My fault to assuming they got my order right and see oil at the bottom of the bag (picture attached) you open the box and greasy oil all over. When you bite its oily. My son loves chicken and he didn't even want to eat it. He liked the
