Nestled in the heart of Brentwood, NY, Pollos Mario Brentwood Corp. invites diners to experience the rich, vibrant flavors of authentic Colombian and Spanish cuisine. This charming restaurant beautifully captures the essence of Colombia’s culinary heritage with a menu that is as diverse as it is delicious.
The moment you step inside, you're greeted by an ambience that reflects warmth and tradition. From colorful decorations that transport you away from the everyday into a lively Latin atmosphere, to the inviting aroma of rotisserie chicken slowly cooking, every detail crafts an immersive dining experience. Customers frequently praise the welcoming service that makes you feel more like a cherished guest than just a patron.
The menu at Pollos Mario is a treasure trove for food lovers seeking genuine Colombian tastes. Signature dishes like the Bandeja Típica offer a fulfilling plate combining yellow rice, beans, plantains, chicharrón, chorizo, an arepa, and tender cuts of meat—a true festival of texture and flavor. Seafood enthusiasts will relish the Viudo De Pescado, a classic boiled red snapper that bursts with fresh, oceanic nuances, or opt for the indulgent Cazuela De Mariscos, a creamy seafood medley that caresses the palate.
For those who enjoy succulent grilled meats, the Rib Eye Steak and the famously tender Entraña (skirt steak) stand out—a delightfully juicy and expertly prepared cut that seasoned diners can attest to as some of the best around. The rotisserie chicken, celebrated for its crispy skin and juicy interior, pairs perfectly with traditional sides like yellow rice and beans or tostones (crispy fried plantains).
Even the refreshing beverage menu deserves a nod, with handcrafted cocktails such as the Moscow Mule, Piña Colada, and a homemade sangria, alongside non-alcoholic options like a zesty Margarita Sin Alcohol. These accompaniments elevate the meal, completing each dining occasion with flair.
Families will appreciate the thoughtfully curated kid’s menu featuring favorites like chicken nuggets and mini patties, ensuring younger guests enjoy the meal just as much. And for those seeking lighter fare, perfectly crafted fresh salads with avocado, grilled chicken, or salmon provide a wholesome balance.

1st time here. Wasn't that bad at all. Had the terriyaki shrimp and chicken meal. Also had a Pina colada. My daughter had chicken nuggets and fries. She didn't really care for the nuggets. But everything was overall good and the service was great. Thanks so much.
Kind of a magical experience with the owner going the extra mile with wonderful decorations everywhere you look. Clean inviting. The food was delicious and the portions are huge. The service was great as well. Recommend!
Very traditional Colombian food, what you would expect from a restaurant in Queens where I grew up, service was good food was spot on and place was clean, this place is always packed for a reason so expect a little wait time or some crowds no matter when you come
For me consistency is of utmost importance after taste. This is not my first time here. And I had to leave a review.. the food here is the best around.. the steaks (churassco/skirt steak) are soo tender and juicy,,, cooked to your liking. The decorations take you far away from the typical new york atmosphere to create a great eating experience. A+ definately returning.
This restaurant is great, food is delicious, the staff are very nice, they make you feel welcome, i left my dog in my care so the waitress sat me on a table by the window that i
I’ve been coming to this place for years! Honestly has become a place I enjoy visiting for a quick and delicious hot meal. I usually get the arepas as an appetizer (SO GOOD) and the house made rotisserie chicken platter. The prices are pretty good for the portions. The service is quick and friendly.
