Tacos El Pollo y El Pollito is a hidden gem on Monterey Rd! 🌮 I was lucky to stumble upon this spot during a walk. I ordered 5 chicken tacos for just $15, and they were fantastic! The meat was juicy and flavorful, especially with the spicy green sauce - a definite must-try!

The casual atmosphere and friendly service made my experience delightful. Just remember, it’s cash only, so come prepared. The only downside is the parking can be tricky. Overall, I wish I’d discovered this place earlier... Can’t wait to go back!
