Pollo Loco Latino Bar-Restaurant

Our experience at Pollo Loco, they are new owners and we wanted to support a new restaurant with Colombian food, my son and I went on Saturday night and they were quite busy, the service was great despite a little delay but the waitresses were very attentive and friendly and they apologized for the delay which we understood due to the day and time, the food did not go so well... we ordered two empanadas as a starter, one with meat and one with chicken, the chicken one was delicious, the meat WAS GROUND MEAT... yes, you read that correctly, it was about ground meat, if the owners read this, please know that Colombian meat empanadas are never made from ground meat, besides they were very soft, they needed to be fried to be crispier, I ordered a plate. main a tray paisa, I'll tell you the beans tasted like perfume, they didn't have a good flavor, almost like canned, I got a ripe banana that looked black in the middle and the meat was at least 80% fat, when it came who seemed I was the manager and I told him about the meat, he told me that's how it normally was... I would have liked to tell him that it's not true and that the meat on the Paisa tray is pulpita but I preferred not to start debating that with the restaurant full of people, instead My son liked his Latin hamburger, although he removed the ham because it didn't suit him. There were no natural juices, desserts or any of the delicious Colombian breads or appetizers that Colombian restaurants normally sell. As I said at the beginning, I know they are just starting. but in my opinion it still lacks a lot, we will return in the summer to see if they have improved and if so I will change my review.

Delicious food! Great service! I had the bandeja paisa which is a traditional plate from Colombia that includes avocado, steak, chorizo, arepa, chicharrón, rice, plantain and eggs. Family owned and Latino owned restaurant!
