The parillada was so delicious We came from DFW and I was so impressed by their delicious food. Everything was delicious! I had to let them know! So I was so happy. They asked if I wanted to try their new mango hot sauce which was so good! Best fajitas I ever had.

Food is delicious here. Definitely a go to spot for lunch/dinner when you don’t feel like cooking or visiting San Antonio. The chicken was my favorite by far.

Love this place. Great food and awesome servers. I have called to have my lunch ready due to limited time on break and they have been able to accommodate and that is greatly appreciated. Fajitas are delicious and tender. Chicken is cooked perfect and juicy .Off the chain rice..add a little lime and you will get addicted. I will always come here! This is one of my top 3 places to eat!

Stopped by for dinner and boy we were not disappointed. Ordered the Gordo Plate, consisting of a whole chicken, 2 sausage links, 8 tortillas, 2 cups of beans, a cup of rice, grilled onions and 4 types of salsa. Food was delicious, grilled to perfection service from staff was good as well

My family and I went here during dinner hours last night and everything was so delicious! We ordered the “gordo pack” and it more than fed my husband, two little ones and myself. I wasn’t able to take a picture because we were so hungry but the food did not disappoint! Definitely recommend

We ordered the 1 chicken and half 1lb of Fajitas. The pollo asada was so flavorful and juicy! The Fajitas were some of the most tender I’ve ever eaten and the marinated seasoning was amazing along with the salsa. The beans were very savory mixed with chicharon. Big and hefty meal that was fairly priced. I will definitely be visiting again soon.

Im not the one to call but I went for the first time and got off because drive thru was not moving at all. It was 8:15pm and I ordered an 8 piece meal. It smelled really good but when I got home(which is like a minute away from the restaurant) I get home and open up the to go box and find nothing but burned chicken. Rice was hard and cold and the beans were cold as well. The onion was hard with no flavor. The cashier was nice but the food was horrible. I don’t think I will go back and order their food. I would rather drive 20 min to go to another place we used to go to. Thought Pollos El Gordo would be better, that I wouldn’t have to drive 20 min away to get pollos asados. I took pictures right away to show people what I got for my money. Check out my charred chicken. .

This place has really tasty roasted chicken and rice and beans. The quesadillas leave a lot to be desired, but overall I really enjoyed the daily special. Also, I think the food is reasonably priced – so it’s a good value.

The seasonings on the Chicken was spot on, but both times we have eaten there, the chicken was so dry it was like it was almost like eating jerky. Guys, cook the chicken 20 minutes less, and it will be perfect. The sides were delicious… just don’t over roast the Star of the show. Buena suerte
