Was Carlos Perez at Pollo Express a mag?

First time here, bargain exquisite chicken. Homemade salsa, chips included. Ordered a guacamole and it was perfect. The chicken can be ordered with rice and beans refried or 'charros ' this means soupy with bacon, sliced hot dogs, tomatoes and diced peppers. Great stuff. I will return. View all feedback.

Our office has been ordering from this place for over 12 years. When a new employee joins our team, we can't wait to introduce them to Pollo Express to just see their reaction on how good the chicken is. If you have never tried Pollo Express, give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

No frills, bang for your buck chicken spot in Pilsen. The chicken is juicy and blasting with flavor cooked to perfection! Great service if you dine in and this place is no beef melt secret so it will get busy around dinner time with takeout orders. Will be back for a chicken combo again real soon!

I’ve been putting off coming here and I don’t know why. The place is phenomenal. Great flavor chicken. Very fresh.The burrito is everything I want out of a burrito; toasty on the outside so it holds its structure and doesn’t get soggy— excellent consistency and flavor throughout.Quesadilla was delicious as well. WOW, come here!!! You won’t regret it.

Amazing chicken. Flavor, char, tenderness and portion size is all very impressive. One of the best roasted half chickens we’ve ever had. Great sides too. Flavor is out of this world. Don’t miss this spot in Pilsen! (Photo of beer not from Pollo Express)

What can I say..... this place is the bomb! Don't take my word for it, try it yourself. You can thank me later. Provecho.

Incredible charcoal grilled chicken! Loved it, a whole chicken is probably splittable among up to 3 people, but it made two people very happy. Comes with rice, beans, tortillas, and some delicious salsas! Guacamole is very creamy and worth the extra dollars, but you'll be full without it. Perfect dinner before a Thalia Hall show.

I recently relocated closer to downtown and I miss my previous chicken spot. I simply googled chicken and this amazing place popped up. I read the reviews and this place does not disappoint. I use to grill my own chicken weekly until I went here. All I can tell you is amazing. I go on thursday so I can take advantage of the special. You get a whole chicken and a half chicken is the bonus. WOW! Just a friendly reminder call your order in and give yourself an hour b4 its ready and make sure you have cash. All you need is a twenty.
