This place is great! The chicken is delicious and it's incredibly cheap. There was a line out the door but they are very well organized and you don't have to wait long.
I would recommend take out rather than eating there.

Don't go to El Pollo Rico for ambience, but go for the magnificent chicken. I have never had better rotisserie chicken in my life. The location isn't the greatest, but the food is excellent. Standard meal is chicken, fries, and cole slaw. They will offer you hot and/or mild sauce; I mix a small amount of the hot sauce in the mild for a delicious and not-so-spicy sauce. My friends and I wonder what they put in their food to make it so addictive.
