Charo Chicken - East Torrance — Restaurant in California

This Charo Chicken restaurant was the best chicken restaurant where I had been eating before. It was located in the small shopping mall, and there were many other restaurants nearby. There were plenty of parking spaces and I didn't have any problem finding a parking space. When I went inside of the restaurant, It was very clean, and they had big dining room. They had various choices of menu. They offered different choices of chicken meals, salads, burritos, nachos,Quezadillas, tacos,bowls sandwiches & other things. I selected their famous chicken meals that were fresh fire-grilled chicken with special lemon garlic sauce. I chose two sides, which were rice and Cole slaw. And it came with corn tortillas and salsas. There was a lady who helped me to select the menu. She was cheerful and confident. She explained their menu carefully, so I made a good selection. After that, I tried their chicken meals. The fire grilled chicken was not dry, and it was tender & juicy. First, I put some of the chicken pieces and salsa on top of corn tortillas. Then, when I tried it, it was heavenly tasty meal. Chicken was moist and savory flavor, and it was mouthwatering taste. It was not salty and spicy flavor that was created amazing chicken. They cooked their chicken grilled to perfection. Also, Cole slaw was tangy and zesty which made a perfect combination of chicken meals. I would like to recommend Charo Chicken restaurant to everyone. Once you tried their chicken, you would return this restaurant again and again. This restaurant is the best chicken restaurant where I have ever eaten before. This restaurant is the best 👌 !!! I ❤️ their...

Ordered an 8-piece meal for takeout. Comes with 8 pieces of chicken and two sides. We chose the garden salad and potato salad. The potato salad is very clearly store-bought. I went in and asked if it was store-bought, and the employee stated they get it from a container and just scoop some out (it was gross). The employee was kind and offered to substitute another side and I chose the rice. The rice was just okay. The chicken was a 6/10 because the flavor was good on the outside but dry on the inside and we ordered the Spicy Cayenne Lemon Garlic, and this chicken was not spicy AT ALL. The Garden Salad was mixed greens with a sprinkle of shredded cheese and some crispy tortilla strips... nothing to write home about. Lastly, the tortillas were cold, stale, and also appeared to be store-bought.

There were no customers when I picked up my order at 1:30 pm, which is very weird because other businesses in the area are booming for the lunch rush and the restaurant had a foul smell.

I was looking forward to finding a new regular lunch spot as I work in the area, but I will not be returning. The employee was kind, but management should consider the quality of food when wondering why they are not as lucrative as they...

So, I was a regular at Charo Chicken in Long Beach. I've come here at least 4 times and each time it's a different story on requesting butter on the side instead of on my chicken. (I actually prefer the crispy skin) Prior to the last time I came here, I've always gotten butter on the side with an extra side of butter no charge. Last time I came it was a $1.50 charge for the extra side. Today I come and it's $1.50 charge to get any side of butter.

I asked the guy what's changed from the last time, he tells me his boss got on him and said no more butter on the side unless they pay for it.

The interesting part, the cost is more than a side of avocado. I'd even be willing to pay .75 for it, but $1.50 for 1tbs of butter? So my $20 order before paying for the butter was cancelled and you lose a $20 sale for $3. There's several places to satisfy my craving for rotisserie chicken....
