We found this gem while looking for Mexican food restaurant near us and Pollos Maria was suggested. We found a space to park in front. There were two parties dining outside and three people waiting for their order numbers to be called.
Our order was ready in less than ten minutes. They had a full kitchen staff working. We noticed that you can order ahead for pick up too. They have a huge menu selection.
We apent $20.11 and decided on the 5 rolled fried chicken tacos which was prepared with freshly cooked chicken, guacamole, shredded cheese and lettuce. We also had a #11 with an enchilada (chicken with green sauce), a beef taco (crispy shell) with shredded lettice and cheese, rice, and beans (refried). You could get while beans instead of refried.
The food was freshly made and tasty. Perfectly seasoned, not over seasoned. Crispy tacos were exceptional - not oily or greasy. The #11 was wonderful, the chicken enchilada was filled with piping hot, flavorful chicken. Refried beans were creamy and savory. The rice was light and fluffy.
We ate everything on our plates and felt fully satisfied. We would definitively come back again for more great food on a budget.
SPLENDID MEAL REMINDING ME OF ONCE LIVING IN PUERTO RICO AND FOR EVERY DAY IT WAS RICE BEANS CHICKENS AND TOSTONES NOW ITS TORTILLAS THE RICE IS FLAVORFUL THE AMBIANCE IS QUAINT WHILE HAVE THE LOCAL FEELING ALWAYS A GOOOD MEAL TO HAVE WHEN SURFING BOOGIE ENDLESSLY I SAY I SHALL MAKE THIS A REGULAR FOR TIME TO COME THANKS POLLA MARIA
Overall this place is definitely worth a try I could see myself coming back since the prices are fairly decent. We ordered huevos rancheros, chips and salsa, chorizo and egg burrito plus a michilada for under $30. If dinning in I would highly suggest eating inside there seems to be lots of flies outside.
Order your food at the counter and grab a place to sit or take your food to go. There's so much food to eat and it's so good. The best staff and great outdoor seating area.
Excellent food, fast service, and cheap prices! I got the carne asada torta and it was delicious. Will absolutely be stopping by next time I’m in the area
