Al Carbon Pollos Asados Estilo Sinaloa — Restaurant in Hemet

Delicious smoky chicken & fluffy rice!

Craving delicious, authentic Mexican chicken? Look no further than Al Carbon Pollos Asados Estilo Sinaloa, a new gem tucked away in the shopping center at Dartmouth and Florida. This isn't your average rotisserie chicken! Their secret weapon is cooking over real charcoal (al carbon in Spanish), infusing the chicken with a smoky flavor you won't find anywhere else.

We tried the family meal with 2 chickens and 3 sides. The rice was incredible - fluffy, like homemade. We also loved the ensalada fria (a macaroni salad with a spicy kick) and the mac and cheese. Everything came with warm tortillas and salsa, perfect for building tacos or enjoying on its own.

Heads up, the restaurant does have a bit of a smoky aroma from the charcoal cooking, but that just adds to the authenticity in my opinion. We ordered takeout, and everything was neatly packaged for a mess-free journey home.

Al Carbon Pollos Asados Estilo Sinaloa is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood. They also offer salads, tostadas, and other dishes. With friendly service and delicious food, I highly recommend giving them...

I like to call this FUNCTIONAL MEXICAN FOOD, it's not the best by far but it's okay. I came in to grab a Machaca burrito on a Sunday afternoon and it was meh. The meat was decent, but I've had much better. The wait time was super long and I think they forgot my order for a while. They only had one lady taking orders for the whole place, they had her going to tables and running the register, poor lady. It sucked that nobody backed her up as she gave good service!

The place was pretty clean but it's very small and feels a little cramped. It's not a good place for big groups, my party was large and we had to sit in individual groups of 4-5. Not the best experience. The specialty here is chicken but it seemed like all the meat was a bit too dry. This restaurant offers, tacos, burritos, enchiladas, tortas, and off course CHICKEN meals. Think Pollo Loco chicken meals with sides like beans, mac, etc.

I didn't spot a drink fountain, it seems like they only have bottled drinks. I got a Dasani water bottle and burrito and everything came out...

I just discovered this hidden gem in Hemet, and I couldn't be more happy! This pollería has completely changed my perception of chicken from these establishments. The chicken here is absolutely amazing—so tender and flavorful! Unlike other places where the chicken tends to be dry, this one has mastered the art of cooking it to perfection.

Not only was the chicken delicious, but the sides were equally impressive. The beans were well-seasoned, the rice was just right, and the macaroni salad tasted exactly like the ones you find in Mexico. It's hard to believe such authentic flavors are right here in our new neighborhood!

From now on, whenever we're craving chicken, this will be our go-to spot. I’m so happy we found this place; it truly is a culinary...
