Food: Delicious food with limited variety

Mr Pollo's commendable focus on Peruvian classics such as the Lomo Saltado, Saltado de Pollo, and Tallarin Verde con Bistec yields flavorful dishes that leave you wanting more. The meat is perfectly seasoned, and the portions generous. Reviewers appreciate the affordability and the emphasis on creating meals fresh per order. However, the greasy dishes were a letdown for some.

  • Large Portions

    Generous portions frequently highlighted, satisfying customers greatly.

  • Almost Creative

    Limited menu, but focused on popular and well-executed dishes.

  • Bad Variety

    Food too greasy and not enough items on menu, resulting in disappointment.

Vibe: Bring earplugs and a cleaning kit

If you're planning a romantic date night, you may need to rethink. The space is much too cramped for an intimate setting, evident from the loud music and dirty floors. The dated interior and fast food atmosphere do the restaurant no favors. Their drink options are weak and not especially healthy.

  • Bad Drinks

    Drinks are meh and unhealthy

Perks: Expect parking hassles and loud music

Nightmare parking situations and an extremely noisy environment can make dining at Mr Pollo a test of your patience. The lack of space, both inside and outside, causes inconveniences such as longer wait times and difficulties with reservations. However, the service quality slightly offsets these drawbacks due to the palatable food.

  • Okay Service

    Quality food offsets slower service; busy times lead to extended waits.

  • Hard To Reserve

    Customer service not friendly, long waits for food and hard to get tables.
