Chicken Tacos are always smackin' but you cannot never never never never not put that bomb taco sauce on your tacos! My order is Chicken tacos crunchy with extra cheese
Great food the chicken express salad is the Great and every thing else Gracias
Their chicken thighs was so well flavored and juicy, the Spanish rice and mash potatoes was good as well and it comes with your choice of a tortilla or garlic bread. The horchata was super refreshing, can't wait to go back and try something else.
Forget that the dining room is small... Because the food is amazing. It's fast service and good quality rotisserie chicken made fresh, on site. You can get pieces of chicken with sides or burritos, tacos, salads, etc. All of it is good and there are a few salsas to choose from. If you want fast food that tastes great and comes from good ingredients, this is the place to go.
Been coming here for years. Never dined in and only drive thru. I always get their crunchy chicken tacos with everything and also their 12 pc rotisserie chicken only. Consistently good! There are times that the drive thru can be lengthy but bearable. Nice employees and fast service.
This is a small fastfood place and the only meat is chicken. Delicious tacos and taco salads my favorite. I have had some other things and they are very good too.
Lobby closes at 9 pm. Drive thru open till 10 pm. I have been eating their "Super burritos" since I was a kid in the early 90's. Their food taste the way it was made from the 90's. Nothing has changed. Some Menu items are new. The Rotisserie Chicken is really tasty and worth bringing home to your family. The Super burrito is my recommendation if you are stopping by for lunch or dinner. Add a bag of tortilla chips for 1.50 to go with it. *Hidden gem in Vallejo, Ca. Refried beans will ruin the burrito. Go for pinto or none at all for best results.
Great chicken, no pretensions. Excellent service, not sure about eating in because I always get " to go." Drive through line is efficient because they have capable people. Love this place--the food and the workers!!
