I recently had the pleasure of eating from Juan Pollo, and I must say that their chicken is nothing short of amazing. Juicy, tender, and flavorful, it's easy to see why this dish is the highlight of their menu. Not to be outdone, the potatoe salad makes an excellent sidekick - soft, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, they complement the chicken beautifully. While the restaurant's exterior may not capture your eye, with a simple structure and ample parking, don't be fooled. Any initial reservations are quickly forgotten as the sheer quality of the dish in front of you takes precedence. Despite the simple setting, the food speaks volumes, providing a gourmet experience that easily compensates for the lack of design. I definitely recommend Juan Pollo to everyone; whether you're a resident or just passing through, be sure to stop by. Believe me, your taste buds will appreciate you.

Wonderful neighborhood, great service, and delicious food!
I started eating at Juan Pollo when I worked at Ontario Airport. It's a local inland empire roasted chicken restaurant. I love that they've expanded into orange county so I can get my fix closer to home. A testament to how good it is, the restaurants are often busy even during off hours. Juan Pollo has the best chicken hands down. The half chicken meal is my regular order with flour tortillas, salsa, and 2 side dishes. Pro tip, get double potato salad for your sides. It's seriously the best potato salad that I have ever had. Honestly I would come to Juan Pollo for the potato salad alone. Fortunately their chicken is terrific as well. Order in English or Spanish at the counter and shortly thereafter your food will be ready. Eat in or take out. If you enjoy horchata or tamarind this is a place where you can indulge in these less commonly available drinks. Very casual place. Fast food service and prices but much better quality food. The salsa is fresh and delicious. The hot salsa can be pretty hot so use caution if you aren't up for spicy goodness.
This is way better than Pollo Loco.check their specials..This is pretty much a "take out restaurant" there are a couple booths, (but trust me, grab & go!!!)
I wanted to really love this place so bad! However there were just a few things I didn't really enjoy. When you walk in its a bit cluttered in the front. We waited a few minutes as there was no cashier in the front, which is okay... We ordered the juan pollo bowl and they were good. There was no salsa on the side, just pico de callo. The shredded chicken had bones in it and I think thats what kinda killed it for me. Its lovely to have to have shredded chicken but when you chew on a bone or several of them, it kind of makes you lose your appetite. Its very small on the inside with a few tables and it was clean overall. The two ladies were very sweet and made sure our order came out in a timely fashion!

This location on Memory lane and Bristol avoid , owner is so cheap that there's no refills on the fountain drink and only give you one sauce after spending 19$ . Only place I know that doesn't give you refills on Fountian drinks and you can only pay for 1 refill and than you have to buy another drink. I'll never return too many restaurants out there to come back here . Disappointed
Go to place for parties
