It's a fast food chain and you kinda expect the same old stuff. I tried some new their fancy corn chicken shrimp salad. I happy (I'm a salad guy, love them). The staff were speaking something, which gets your attention. BUT I have never seen staff cleaning everything like this place. The restaurant was very clean the staff spending time cleaning walls, windowsills, and places normally ignored. The visible kitchen area clean and shiny too. This is one of the cleanest restaurants I have seen, and a fast food chain location ever.

Went here on back-to-back days and it was nice to have a consistent experience after a few bad experiences at other local places. We think the food here is actually more flavorful vs other Pollo locations- maybe more seasoning on the chicken? Quick and efficient drive through when you don't want to get out in the cold weather.

I ordered on Uber, and when I arrived, the nice server was packing up everything for me, and greeted me with food with a big smile. The inside is clean and bright. I took it home and everything was packed nicely inside with lots of napkins and extra sauce. The chicken was delicious and lean. It was grilled to perfection and so flavorful. It was healthy and I was able to hit my protein goal for the day. What a great place to eat delicious food and maintain my goal of healthy eating.
