I'm from California where there is a Mexican Fire Grilled Chicken restaurant on every corner (just about), called El Pollo Loco. Delicious chicken! Since moving to OK four years ago, I haven't had Mexican Fire Grilled Chicken, nor found a restaurant that served it. Enter Pollo Alteno in Enid, OK. We drove passed it many times, then one day it hit me; let's try it! Maybe it'll be what I've been missing! The parking lot was fairly full as it was just before lunch, but we found a table easily. The restaurant is a just a little small, so try to get there before the rushes if possible. The menu is packed with yummy Mexican dishes, but my heart and tummy was set on fire grilled chicken. I ordered the 3 piece white meat plate with double beans, hubby ordered a chicken quesadilla. HEAVEN!! This was what I'd been missing for 4 years! The meat was moist and tender, the skin gloriously crispy and "fire" tasting. Goodness, it was SO GOOD! Their beans were authentically tasty (have you ever noticed a lot of Mexican restaurants beans taste weird or bland? Not here!!) Hubby liked his chicken quesadilla too. In fact, he liked it so much, HE suggested we go there a couple of weeks later. THAT rarely happens! My tummy was up for it, but sadly, my chicken was kinda dry this 2nd visit. But that happens, I'm not giving up on Pollo Alteno at all. The prices are fair, the salsa is good, the decor is pretty sweet. My grandson was enamoured of their Dia de los Muertos skull picture (it was a colorful pic, not scary at all). I hope you try this place, we'll def be back for sure!!
Got a two for one this time! Enid, Oklahoma rocks! Was rushing to get back to the city to get my trailer fixed, stopped to get my veggie burrito, salsa and chips and once again it was on point! Backed in, got out to check the trailer and WALLLAA!!! There was a mobile welder that I needed RIGHT THERE!!! He so graciously fixed the problem!! La Salsa and Enid welders rock!!
The place is already great, came in on seafood Sunday and I am more than impressed. The service is Michelin level and the food matches that energy. It's obvious they're growing and expanding right now so I'm glad to get in before this spot gets blown up. If you're free on a Sunday and enjoy Real Mexican seafood this is a great spot to land. Esmeralda took great care of us, 3p-8p and you Will Not be disappointed.
OMG the seafood Sunday is extremely excellent food , excellent service from Esmerelda this place is definitely five star food and service. Looking forward to Sundays at La Salsa
I really appreciate them going over and beyond expectations. I asked for a breakfast that wasn't on the menue and unlike other restaurants that only serve what's in the menue they made an exception and did a great job! Thank you for your great hospitality!
The first thing I expect from a Mexican food restaurant is authenticity. I just moved from San Angelo, TX and I wanted to find my new "place". I loved it and you will too. Friendly service, priced right cute little place
Omg this my first time eating here and so friendly and excellent service and fast service and the food is freaking amazing!!!!! Most definitely will return and highly recommend
Always have a great experience here. The food is tasteful and authentic, generous portions, amazing flavor. Will definitely be going back.
