Casa Del Pollo

This quaint little restaurant was very inviting, even for 10:30 in the morning. I was greeted and sat immediately and only needed 2 minutes to decide that I wanted a torta when I saw they had Jarritos. I got a torta de jamón which came with French fries. The bread was very fresh and soft, but the toasted outside with mayonnaise was warm and crispy. It was filled with enough ham to warrant a to-go box, but it didn't make it home as I ate the rest in the car.

Amazing place! I ordered chicken flautas. One of the best Mexican food places I've been too. Not too busy. This is a hidden Salinas gem.

Food is rancid. Chicken is cold, and the raw chicken is next to the cooked chicken. Beans were rancid. Rice reheated. The man handles the food without washing his hands. The restaurant will be reported to California department of public health.

Went to this place after a ball game nearby. Service was bad. We had to keep repeating ourselves. And the food, I don't know how to explain it, but everything tasted bad, tasted dirty. Chorizo and eggs, no seasoning and the rice and beans were really gross.

Top notch place for mariscos , music. Low rider hang out in the outskirts of Salinas , sheriffs don't bother , they come by and wave hi , beautiful spot Carne Asada Burritos are the bom

Went here in a Friday evening. Music was so loud that I couldn't converse with my family at the table. The waitress had a flat affect and was sluggish. She did not greet us and we had to call her many times to order. One of us went to the counter to ask for napkins. At the end I went to pay for the bill. I show the lady a 10% coupon I had for using Yelp to check in. Three of them did not acknowledge the coupon and acted as if they've never seen it before. This coupon was not used because the restaurant refused to honor it per "the owner." The lady didn't say a word when I showed it to her. She immediately called the owner on her cell phone to ask about this coupon and her response was that "the owner was not going to honor Yelp coupons." I give the food a 5 out of 10. The Mariscos was too salty and for this reason I couldn't finish it. No refills were offered and none of the waitress came to check if we needed anything. Our meals came sporadically and not together. I will not be returning to this restaurant.

This place was not that good, maybe they are better at seafood dishes... We ordered typical fares like burrito and wet burrito, enchilada, crispy tacos... the spices were very bland (ie, enchilada sauce and wet burrito sauce) Not impressed with usually "no fail" dishes. The real worst was that the cheese used was not authentic and was typical cheddar stuff (not bad if the prices relate to ok ingredients..)

So the cheese was low grade...and quite frankly, it had a funny taste to it and both me and my people's stomach felt kinda unsettled afterwards.

The prices were not proportionate to the quality either.

The food was somewhat ok, the server was horrible, I ordered super fries like the menu stated rudely she said they are called asada fries, as we are ordering she walks away and tells a server something, comes back and says I'm sorry you can continue now, another waiter helped her deliver our plates she was a doll, for a first timer to Casa Del Pollo #2 I wasn't impressed by her attitude she after I paid my tab was amazing guess she wanted a tip, here's a tip to the owner if you ever read these reviews talk to your waiter which she didn't even give her name but has grinch green highlights to be friendlier.

I had never heard of this place until my coworkers mentioned it. So one day I decided to join them. The establishment is a pretty good sized restaurant. Apparently on Fridays and the weekend, there is karaoke and dancing!!

I ordered the enchilada plate. It came with two chicken enchiladas, rice, beans and a salad. They served a pretty big sized portion, so I was unable to finish my entire plate. The plate was delicious and I would definitely order it again, if I were to go back.

I also ordered a Chavela, of course without the shrimp. Apparently this place is known for their Chavelas! They were good and live up to the countless thumbs up reviews.

My only two issues were that I paid about $20 for my meal and drink. I felt that was a little too excessive. Service was a little slow but it was busy for the time of day we went. Overall, it was an okay experience.

The asada fries are the staff is very polite and helpful. If you order by phone it's always done fast.
