Super Pollo Ridgewood Reviews
Came for the lunch special- it was delicious and such a crazy good deal for the area. Perfectly cooked juicy chicken ( and not the hormone pumped 20 lb monstrosity kind) salad, fresh veggies, homemade lemonade and chips.. everything such good quality and fresh down to the last detail. Our waitress Abigail was super nice.
I usually pick this up since it’s not too far from me. The order is usually ready within 10 minutes, is piping hot, and delicious. It’s also affordable, which I definitely appreciate and is hard to find in NYC.
Listen.. This been my spot for years but never left i review so here goes. SP has the best chicken and carna asade to me, its full of flavor. And the sides are all tasty. dont forget the green sauce(get a bottle to go, it goes on anything) and their mojito is fantastic. I recommend this to anybody that loves good authentic food. Im going there today cause its bringing back flashbacks as I type this..lol
Half chicken, beans and rice with avocado salad. Very friendly staff and no wait to pick up at the time it said it would be ready. Great portion sizes and phenomenal food overall.
I ordered delivery. They arrived at the promised time. The food is always great! Bandeja Paisa is always a hit. Combo empanadas - cheese - they are absolutely savory. I love the cheese and how it comes melted. You still rock guys!
This is one of my favorite places in the entire world. I don’t live in ridgewood anymore, so I’m extremely sad because there’s nothing like it anywhere else! The way they cook and season the chicken is superior. Actually I’m hoping I can ask what is the recipe? lol what seasonings are used? Would really appreciate it so much the chicken is PERFECT every time !!
I hopped off the L train after another day of starving myself so that I can eat at least 2,000 calories at dinner. That’s just the way I like to move idk. My destination was Super Pollo in Ridgewood, as it is the most recommended chicken spot in my comments and DMs that I have yet to hit. After 9 stops and a brisk 13 minute walk, I arrived at the promised land. I got this tingly feeling when I saw a Smart Car wrapped in Super Pollo branding. “Super Pollo” was written in bold yellow lettering and there was an animated chicken with “SP” on his chest like a superhero. I’m really not a car guy, but this is my dream whip. Legendary. I walked in and got a table for 1 like a nerd loser, but these chicken reviews tend to be a solitary practice. I feel Van Gogh. I got the half chicken and 2 sides combo ($17) and a side of maduros ($6) for the city. On the surface, this chicken looked like one of the greats. The skin was perfectly golden brown and so crispy. It crackled when I touched it with my fork. However, I got trojan-horsed a bit. The bird itself was just a bit dry. It wasn’t so dry where it was killing me, but compared to the greats, it just didn’t have the same tender juicy meat. The green sauce was AMAZING and made it to die for, but you must judge a chicken pre sauce. Otherwise we are just judging sauce. It was very well seasoned though and had so much flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal, and it’s still in my A-tier ranking for chicken spots. I’m just a rotisserie chicken snob at this point. 8.7/10. If I lived anywhere near here, I’d be coming at least 3 times a week. Nothing better after a good workout than pollo a la brasa. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__
Dear Lord this place is amazing! If I could live next to Super Pollo I would! Everything here is delicious and that’s not exaggerating! EVERYTHING. IS. DELICIOUS. The chicken, amazing, never dry and always flavorful! The rice, super tasty and seasoned beautifully! Their house sauce is perfection and I highly recommend buying a bottle for your home! The cocktails are fantastic, strong but not overpowering. Thanks for always making going here a pleasant experience! The people that work here are awesome too! I’ve never had a bad experience and I highly recommend going to Super Pollo as much as you can!
Welcome to a little slice of Ecuador. The roasted chicken is clearly the jam here as there was a constant stream of folks taking out and walking in to sit and enjoy these huge portions. The 1/4 chicken is a leg and a thigh roasted to perfection ultra juicy yet crisp skin. You can order a side with that (we got fries and maduros) all for $14. Each dish came with a side salad and chips an salsa to start. It hit the spot and was delicious. Yes this is one super chicken.
Ordered the B Combination, Combo Azuayo. It was absolutely delicious, and more than enough food for two. Probably perfect for 3 hungry people, or 2 and a kid. One whole chicken, accompanied by plantains, rice, beans, and an avocado salad. Everything was delicious, but I really think their beans are soooo good! It’s like a Mexican take on baked beans almost, but not sweet. So good! The lunch special prices are great, some of the stuff on the menu is a bit pricy though. Well worth it, I find that this is leftovers for tomorrow too.
Easy to get to Location, train station close by and car parking can be difficult time to visit anytime lots of seating indoor and outdoor Service can be better visit location a few times and the waiter is always rushing us , always taking my plate of food when am not done . Being in hospitality business for over 20 years waiter can get better training Very Clean cups and utensils clean Menu easy and great family option Taste very delicious great chicken Recommend for family and friends great food
Their food is good don’t get me wrong. But recently their portions are getting very small. It’s not fair. Empanada was 2.75 for not even the size of my finger. I also ate there last week and they gave me a few spoons of rice and one small chicken with a peice of lettuce for almost 15$. It’s too pricey for small portions.
Ordered the 1/4 chicken with yuca. The chicken was bland and the yuca had mold on it. We told the waiter and he offered to change the yuca. Did not want to take another chance with moldy food. Not looking to get a free meal, there was no discount for the moldy food that was served to us. There’s better food in the area.
Every time a place like this starts to do well they become cheap or mistreat customers. I order from here all the time - the food is great but they always send a bunch of food with only one sauce. ONE sauce . I call & ask for extra I even offer to pay but the food is honestly average without the sauce. The sauce is what makes it great ! They act like it’s made of gold or something ! Then get annoyed when I call back to ask why they didn’t give me any- treat your PAYING customers better! Especially those who still choose to support you in this economy!
Absolutely unacceptable. We were charged $1.25 per to-go container simply because we didn’t finish our meal. That’s not just unreasonable — it feels predatory and unethical. Customers should never be punished for not finishing their food, and to add insult to injury, this charge was not disclosed anywhere on the menu or before we asked for boxes. If you want to talk about poor customer service and lack of transparency, this is it. Charging people extra to take home food they already paid for is disgusting and borderline illegal. I’ve supported many local businesses in Ridgewood, but this kind of behavior gives the entire neighborhood a bad name. Super Pollo, do better.
