Newer restaurant here in Brooklyn Center, VERY clean on the inside. Stuff was very courteous and friendly. About 5 minutes from walking in to sittingndown and our food was brought to our table. Hot and fresh chicken sides was fresh and tasty. Very reasonable for price and good portions. Good chicken place for something other than KFC or Popeyes if you you are looking for a quick bite to eat.

I wish I could say my experience was great, but it was okay at best. Staff were nice, but it’s fairly pricey for what you get. I also don’t understand corporations normalizing no drinks with meals (KFC does give you a drink btw). Chicken and fries could’ve used WAY more seasoning. Same with yuca fries, which had none. Roll could’ve used butter and was dry. Only chicken was really good honestly, but still not worth the price. Interior looked great though and staff were nice. Just wouldn’t come here again unless their food looked seasoned.

The line to this place was long when we went and it had been open a few weeks. Lots of Latino patrons, so this franchise must be known in the community. For me, I heard about it on social media so we headed over to try it. It’s fast food but yes I did enjoy the flavor of the chicken more than American franchise chicken places. The chicken here is marinated in flavorful spices and lent some umami flavor. I’m still onthe lookout for a truly spicy chicken sandwich. Theirs isn’t as spicy as they claim but we are in Minnesota… The sides weren’t that good, although I did enjoy the Mexican rice. They had agua frescas and horchata which were quite good.

First time here and didn’t expect the options on the menu. Had the original crispy chicken sandwich w/ Yucca fries. I wish they were a little bit hotter, but they were still good and the chicken had me shook for a minute when I didn’t see any type of spread on the the buns but whatever the sauce that came w/ the meal did its job on the sandwich!

Good food and decent value. Fast casual with good service. The Campero bowl was a nice filling lunch with decent flavor and texture, but I wish it had a lime wedge with it or something to punch up the flavor such as a southwest dressing. The 3 piece chicken plate with dark meat was fabulous, the flavor was something special. The plantains were fantastic, not too sweet. I liked the Jamaican beverage with lower calories than the Mango, but both were excellent. There is also Horchata. The cashier was kind, courteous however a little shy, but I hope he comes out of his shell a little more.
I saw all walks of life come in through the door which is heartwarming. Nice place, way better than other fast food joints. With a drive through, I expect it to be hopping soon.
Coleslaw is good, nice hit of horseradish in there with good creamy flavor and nice crunchy texture. Best that I have had in a long time.
Really great fried chicken, especially the dark meat. Avocado seemed pre-made, but didn’t taste bad.

Friendly, fast service. Fried chicken was tasty and fresh though would have liked it to be crispier. Mac and cheese was fine, nothing special. And no drink included in combo.

This is the best pollo campero location I’ve been to! The food quality and taste is so good! I’m blown away by the cleanliness of the place, friendly staff, and the quality of the food.
First bite of my campero bowl and I was in heaven! I just had to write a review for this location!!!
Pollo Campero literally beats all fast food places!!! Well worth the money!

I had the Campero Bowl. It has rice, beans, chicken, lettuce, guacamole, cherry tomatoes, and a corn mix. It was delicious and reasonably priced. I would highly recommend it.

We went here recently, having ordered ahead online. They had an error that resulted in them not having our order ready, and we had to wait about 20 minutes in the lobby. They were so kind and apologetic, gave us water cups while we waited, and then free drinks and an extra side to make up for the inconvenience.
When we got home, we were pleasantly surprised to enjoy what I would consider the best fried chicken I have ever had! My partner thought it was a little too juicy for their taste, with the bottom sometimes being soggy – however, I thought it was incredible, and the leftovers put in the air fryer were also great. We also got the plantains which were fantastic.
The beans could be skipped as there isn’t really anything special or notable about them.

The grilled chicken is very delicious and I really like the fried chicken.It has a unique different type of flavor and it’s really crispy. The customer service was really good. The cashier was very nice and friendly. I went through the drive through quick and hot food. I’m really glad that they have this location in Brooklyn Center.I tried them a few times over in West Saint Paul and always said such a distance to have to get chicken, the only time I can get it is if I’m out Ubering and happen to be in that neighborhood, now it’s very convenient to Brooklyn Park where I live.
