Order pollo saltado the fries were soggy and food was over salted. I’ve had much better plus the service was extremely poor ! Very disappointing wasted money.

This is a wonderful place for Peruvian food. Their rotisserie chicken is delicious; even moreso when you add their yummy green spicy sauce! The rice is seasoned well and pairs nicely with their meats. Their Lomo Saltado is on point. But my absolute favorite there is the Tallarin Verde. It's normally served with chicken, but I love mine with the steak!!

Horrible service. I called in an order and who ever answered the phone said they didn’t speak Spanish and hangs up on me. I called back and ordered in English. I was told the order will be ready in 15 minutes. I went to the restaurant and asked to speak to the manager. The cashier who I know is the one that answered the phone went to get him and she came back with “he wants to know what it is about?” I said tell him it’s about a complaint. Finally this sweaty guy comes and ask what is this about. Not hello I’m the manager what seems to be the problem? I told him what had happened all he said was that he was sorry and walked away. I don’t know what was worse, the fact that I got hung up on or the manager not realizing he lost a customer. After waiting 40 minutes for my order. I requested a refund.

Always good to great, but never disappoints. Ordered the 1/2 chicken plate with 1/2 beans 1/2 rice and side salad. The food is always pretty good, but chicken a slightly on the dry side this time but not a major issue. The green sauce which is usually the highlight of the meal was a little off though. Grainier than I remember and not as spicy. Rice and beans were as good as ever and service spot on.

Great little Peruvian restaurant in West Covina. Everything here is amazing but the chicken, rice and green salsas are the stand outs for sure. On this trip we tried the Tallarin Verde with pollo and Lomo Salgado com bistec. Both were amazing and they gave us extra liquid gold, aka green salsa, to go which was awesome.
Of course they are take out only these days, but do take orders I eat the phone so it made the trip easy and quick without having to stand around waiting for our food in the tiny shop.

Good place to grab some fast Peruvian food. The rotisserie chicken is good and flavorful. Fries are good. The place is nice and neat. It can get packed, and sitting is first come. Parking as well can sometime become a hassle. It gets packed during lunch time as well. But the food is good, the ambiance as well. Great customer service, very helpful staff. Stop by and try some good Peruvian food.

The food and service was excellent. Friendly staff in person and on the telephone upon placing the advanced order.
Since it was my first time visiting Mr. Pollo, I decided to order their most traditional/standard dishes: Lomo Saltado, Pollo Saltado, and a whole roast chicken - Pollo a la Brasa.
All three dishes were amazing! Both Saltados have the meats perfectly seared over crispy french fries and steamy white rice. The Pollo a la Brasa was well marinated both inside and outside the chicken with a mesquite, smoky flavour produced by the firewood used during the roasting process. This fragrance is immediately noticeable upon entering the restaurant.
