"Pollo Express is a cash-only spot in Pilsen with eight tables and a to-the-point menu: Chicken. Granted, you can get it in a bowl, burrito, or quesadilla, and OK, steak is an option too. But the half or whole chicken order is the correct move. The charcoaled meat has incredible flavor and comes with a pile of soft tortillas, pickled onions, and salsa if your CCO wants to branch out. And if you want to chase chicken with more chicken, go on Tuesdays or Thursdays when there’s a buy-one-get-one-free half-chicken deal." - adrian kane, veda kilaru
