What User likes about El Pollo Rico:
I had never had Peruvian style charbroiled chicken before I went to El Pollo Rico for the first time a few years ago, and wow was I missing out. Since, I have tried a number of other ones in the area, but nothing really compares to this. The chicken, fries, beans and rice are all really wonderful combinations with one another. The old location was a bit run down, but had that local feel. Now their newer place is real... View all feedback.

What Bianca G Martinez doesn't like about El Pollo Rico:
If you want food poisoning, eat here. If you want fries so hard and greasy it makes you throw up in your mouth eat here. If you want all bone, no meat eat here. I loved this place my entire life. It’s gone severely down hill. This is the SECOND time it’s made me sick and fourth extremely disappointing visit. I will never eat here again. I miss the OLD pollo rico. Food: 1 View all feedback.
