After moving to the Laurel area in April, I gave this place a try. The young girl at the register was really nice and explained the differences of the menu items for me (she even gave me a small sample of the chicken!) I opted for the roasted chicken and paid the upcharge for the plantains. Wen I got home, I was disappointed because the chicken was so dry! It honestly made me sad because it looked so good in the store. The plantains were delicious and the serving side was quite large (so worth the upcharge). Being that my time in MD is limited due to a cross-country move at the end of the month, I won't be returning, but kudos to the place for having great customer service and rockin' plantains!

OMGGGGGGGGGG SOOOOOOOO GOOOD! The plantains were muy buen! Plantains at a drive-thru window... I'm all over that! We had fried chicken and grilled chicken but were wonderful. Seasoned to perfection! Cilantro Lime Sauce to put on the grilled chicken was so good that I was dunking my fried chicken in it! So good! Def will be back. Price was pretty good as well!

The food is just ok. First time stopping here so I thought I would try a few different things (original chicken, grilled chicken, rice, campero beans, black beans). The food was not bad it was just... Meh... not exciting. The line was long, which was actually kind of exciting, but for the time and money I spent here, I could have just as easily cooked these things at home.

Pleasantly surprised by this place. It's almost like a hole-in-the-wall experience, but with a fast food chain. Weird, but nice. They give you silverware to eat with--seriously. That's different. What chain restaurant gives you real utensils?! The chicken was quite good; if you want an alternative to KFC, try them. They also had their own store brand flan and tres leches. It was individually wrapped and ready to go. Also, the salad they gave with the meals was surprisingly large--it could've been an entree by itself.

The manager needs to teach all of the staff what the names of the parts of the chicken are. That is if they know. After that they need to make sure the cooks know their job. The food doesn't taste the same.

I like this place. Pretty surprised that a chain restaurant had such good tasting food. I got the grilled chicken. It was extremely juicy. Think it has something to do with pressure cooking... The yucca were actually the best I've ever had. Very soft inside and crispy outside. The plantains were also pretty good. Sauces provided were sour cream and some read dipping sauce. The latter I did not care for. I am use to the yellow mayonaise type, and the verde type. Probably just needed to ask for those. The pieces of chicken were actually a little smaller than what I am use to. Not a big deal though. Prices are good.

Had the Grilled Chicken with rice and was pleasantly amazed.

Got it to go & it took a long time, but was well worth the wait. The chicken was YUMMY and very deliciously seasoned!!!!!!! Fried and grilled, both soooo good, each had their own distinct flavor and seasoning. Make sure you get some plantains too, because they are very tasty palate cleansers and are a great accompaniment to the meal, as were the yummy sauces.

I tried this place because I saw the sign while traveling on interstate 95. It is pretty far off of the interstate, so it's kinda a pain in the @$$ if you are looking to get off and back on your road trip. Now the food was........ Ok. Yep just ok. I ordered the citrus grilled chicken breast and wing with Campero beans and a couple of white corn tortillas. The beans were very tasty, but the chicken was dry (although the skin was nice and tangy). The corn tortillas we also dry and cardboard-like. I much prefer flower tortillas, but maybe that is not authentico. Service was good and the restaurant was a little loud. It's a decent meal if you don't have to drive out of your way. Now back to I-95 for me!

So I rarely ever review chains, because you know, a chain is a chain is a chain. By design. But so few people are aware of the existence of Pollo Campero that I thought it'd be worth the time and minor effort. I tried Pollo Campero for the first time in Takoma Park, while attending nearby UMCP. Back then I thought it was unique among the offerings of fast food chicken, but had some work to in the way of being a one-stop chicken shop. A feature on that Marc Summer Food Network show and several years later, I rediscovered Pollo Campero and decided to give them another shot. Talking about coming a long way. Not only had they expanded their selection but they now have a very good, very streamlined online ordering system. No wonder they've managed to stay in business this long! I've used this system to order a variety of menu items (as I always do when testing an unfamiliar food joint) a few times from this location and so far everything has been really good and at worst average. Among my favorites are the original fried chicken and grilled citrus chicken (both unique, juicy, and bursting with flavor), empanadas (deep fried decadent bliss), campero beans (I never like beans as a side too), and the excellent sweet plantains (made perfectly). Oh and the sauces at the sauce bar are actually worth your time. Very fresh and very good. The only knock on this particular location is no drive through!

No good. Wish I could get my money and appetite back. Chicken was old. Rice had no flavor.
(1)Michele W.
What saves this place is the flavor in the chicken and rice. I was happy with my meal but, the place seemed like it wasn't very clean, the service was a bit slow, and a fast food meal cost about $8

Well, I hate to do it, but I have to remove a star because they've changed the recipe, and it's no longer the best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had :( We went in for a quick dinner tonight, and there was a sticker on the menu next the sandwich saying "New sauce!" Oh no! It wasn't a bad sauce, sort of a lime-cilantro mix, but it was so good before... It still is better than Chic-fil-a, with it's side of political interference, though, and has some other cool stuff on the menu. Plus, this place just gets grimier each time we go. Would it kill you guys to wipe down the tables once in a while? And keep the salsa bowls filled? And what's up with the rude customers in this place? (No, I don't fault the restaurant for its clientele! But seriously, super-rude customers: is it really wise to be such a jerk to people who are preparing what you are about to eat? ) Anyhoo, hopefully this place can get their act together with respect to cleanliness and such, because I really like the concept and menu.

I like the lighter seasoning on the grilled chicken, compared to some - plus the usual yucca fries and plantains. However, by 5pm they are often out of grilled entirely on the last few visits. I probably need to skip them and head to beltsville or mega chicken.
(3)Kirk S.
i love this place ..a very good option to the overpriced Popeyes chicken across the street. The only place i know of in Laurel to get fresh plantains.

I live in Baltimore Md & whenever I work in Laurel or the DC area, I always stop at Pollo Campero to get some of the best chicken ever to take back home to my family. I've e-mailed several times to suggest that there be some Baltimore locations considered. Today I was in the store when their District Manager was there & I tryed to convince him that Baltimore needs a Pollo Campero (Bad). Not only is the quality of your food excellent, but the service surpasses anything available in any chicken establisment in Baltimore. Thank You, Randall L.

In Hawaii, we don't have restaurants like this. Whenever I would pass this place on our way to Navy Federal, I always said that I would try this place. There's alot of mexican/latino restaurants off of Rt 1 so was curious to try a "chain" mexican chicken joint. Never, ever had yucca fries but I was addicted after my first try. Hubby was like, what are those? These are mine and just keep your grubby hands off of them! Yucca fries are like, light an airy but heavy? Weird, I know, but it's addicting! The sauce, I don't know what it is, but it's good too. I dip it in that sauce as well as their spicy salsa sauce. The first visit, I had a grilled 2 piece chicken plate with a side order of campero beans. As much as I hate drumsticks, it was very juicy and tasty. The chicken breast, was indeed dry. I just ate the skin. I'm glad I had the yucca fries and beans to tie me over. I was going to try my husband's burrito since all he kept saying while eating it was "I like this place... I like this place alot.. This is great.." Sorta in a tantric mantra state. Also I had their tres leches cake. I guess it is as good as a chain place can get? I just had a couple of bites since I was full but it was very sweet, spongy, and creamy sweet. Oh, forgot to mention that the beans were mild but flavorful. Pintos? The next visit, I had the fried chicken bowl and my favorite yucca fries. Now the chicken bowl was a winner. Everything my husband was eating in his burrito was in a bowl sans the tortilla, sour cream and cheese. Most delish. 2nd visit, he ordered the same thing. You know those people who try something once and like it but never want to go beyond their comfort zone? Yep, that's hubby. Anyways, I'm craving yucca fries now!

Stopped her for a quick lunch. I was just really surprised how bland the chicken tasted. The service was excellent, very fast and courteous, so I will definitely give it a few more tries.

Totally gross! Unfortunate, because the prices are very affordable and great for families.

Went for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was delicious! The people working there were nice and friendly, Laurel. I enjoyed the chicken, rice & beans and plantains. Authentic caribbean food. Greasy, yeah! Hey, its chicken!!! Can't wait for a store to open in the Columbia area.
(5)Cam W.
Great Campero rice and the grilled chicken is delicious with the red or green fresh salsa.
(3)Wendy S.
This place is yummy - check out the grilled chicken bowl with the black beans - very good!!!

Okay well, I will pretty much eat anywhere & anything. Not here again. I went there for lunch, around noon on the 27th of April. I decided I will try something new. I received cold fries, chicken thats been sitting there, and old mashed potatoes. The price I paid($8.46? for a 3 piece meal), was the only thing making me finish my meal. To follow the horrid so called meal, I was annoyed the entire time I was eating in there. There was a loud high pitch noise coming from the kitchen all the way through my meal... I couldn't even hold a conversation with my co-worker(which by the way totally agreed with me{same with my bosses previous experience}). I could have easily have went to Popeyes across the street and spent the same amount of money and got a better tasting and enjoyable meal. The only thing this place had over Popeyes, is that Pollo Campero is slightly more healthy. Never again will I eat there.
