El Pollo Fino

Pollo Fino is located in Placentia Plaza off of Chapman and Placentia Ave. It is easy to access and parking is plentiful. My mom used to come here decades ago, way before the "Crazy Chicken" became popular. I stopped in today for the nostalgia ~ AND it was lunch time:)The inside of the restaurant is spacious and clean with plenty of seating. The grill and kitchen are open concept, so you can see how the food is prepared. The posted menu board looks new, but is void of pricing. Orders are placed at the counter. I had a to go order, so I collected my order there; not sure if food is delivered to the table if you're dining in. Three people were working today, all were friendly and accommodating. There was definitely a comfortable, family feeling going on. I ordered the 12 piece combo which came with 12 pieces of charbroiled chicken, corn tortillas, and a quart each of rice and beans. The chicken, while nicely seasoned, was not plump and the thinnest pieces were dry and almost overcooked. None of the pieces had good amounts of meat on them. The rice, tortillas, and salsas were good, but the refried beans lacked the typical Mexican spices like cumin, garlic, and onion. As much as I like to support small, family owned businesses, the food just left me and my family unsatisfied. And for almost $37, sadly, I don't think I'd come back.

Servico vale mierdo las muchachas son unas pendejas hasta sin gente no saben Que hacer

I drive from Upland to get this chicken, the seasoning is phenomenal and the rice and beans that accompany it are superb.

"The chicken beans and rice served at this place are excellent. I love stopping by here on my way home from work. On weekends, they make awesome homemade tortillas. Another favorite of mine is the carne asada sope. I usually prefer takeout orders because the music inside is a little loud."

Disappointing. Came in around 2:30p, and it appears they served me whatever had been sitting on the grill since lunch. Service was fine but the chicken was extremely dry, and I ended up tossing it. Hoping the Anaheim location is better.

Quality is impeccable, food always at its best point. Service is always amiable. Recommended 100%

This place found us, we didn't find them. It was right next door to a Mexican market that we had just discovered. So what does one get at an obviously tiny, Pollo Loco wannabe? I say that with reverence, btw.Staring directly at the gorgeous, marinated then grilled chicken with fire licking their little splayed bodies, I ordered a beef fajitas salad. Yeah. Not only as it lovely to taste, it was set on what looked like a small turkey platter. But I needed no help devouring it. The marinated carne asada and sauteed vegetables on top of a very simple salad was very special, not at all what I expected.And Mr B? He left me in the dust once they place a large bowl of Caldo de Res in front of his nose. So much tender meat, a great broth, large chunks of still firm veggies, and a plate of cilantro, onion, and limes caused him to start moaning. Good thing...I had no intention of sharing. A very satisfying meal with absolutely no pretense. This should be on everyone's bookmarks when looking for good, homestyle cooking.

It's open and it's delicious.Chicken and Beef Soup is the real deal. Yum. Grilled chicken highly recommended.Rice, beans, tortillas all seem hand/home made.Bring your appetite.

Came in here on our way home from work to grab some dinner, was very happy with my experience. The staff is super friendly, the food was hot and tasty, unfortunately I was unable to take any decent pics since we grabbed our chicken and started munching.Recommend this little gem, they've been around for many years but it was my gfs first time and she loved it. We'll be back soon for some more amazing chicken. Thank you

Use to come here all the time and it always good. Today drove 1hr because I wanted get a chicken burrito but it was only rice beans and like 3 pieces of chicken. Very disappointed. Not coming back
