My wife and I went to El Rey del Pollo Asado for dinner. We ordered the 8 piece Family Order with Rice, Beans and French Fries. Cost was $16.15 plus tax ($17.93 with tax). We also had included 6 corn tortillas per person as part of the meal.
In general, the taste was very good for everything. The chicken was a bit small in our opinion, but the taste made up for it. Jalapeño chili's and grilled green onions were also part of the chicken order. Neither of us really eat the peppers or onions, but I'm sure others would appreciate it. The beans were a bit runny for us, but I just poured it on top of the rice and put it in my corn tortillas. Not the way to do it, I'm sure, but I was ok with that. The fries were very good... nice and crunchy!
We had this chicken before but we did it as a take-out order. The restaurant looks like it could have been a old Pizza Hut that they converted over as the shape of the restaurant looked like an old Pizza Hut.
The chicken came out fast, probably less than 5 minutes of wait time. You pick up your order at the counter and bring it back to your table, so there's no tip needed. Our fries were not done at the time the other food were ready, so they just brought those to our table a couple of minutes later.
Free salsa is available, but you can buy larger bowls of it if you want to take some home.
Overall, we liked El Rey del Pollo Asado's food and service, but thought that the it was a bit pricey considering the size of the chicken. Yelp and Google Reviews are generally 4 out of 5 stars, so I guess others like it as well.
