El Pollo Rico Arlington

Really, reallllyyy goooood chicken. Like falling apart, super tender, flavorful, juicy, herb-rubbed roasted chicken for $5. My meal of 1/4 lb chicken, coleslaw, and fries, with a soda was $6. Crazy. It's no surprise that there are avid supporters of El Pollo Rico. The restaurant is definitely worthy of the craze. The dipping sauces are okay, but the chicken does not need it. The coleslaw and fries are nothing to rave about, but not bad. However, it is the chicken that steals the show. Cafeteria style, this is a great place for a tasty, super casual, inexpensive meal. It beats fast food, hands down.
