Los Pollos

Footscray’s discerning eaters know exactly how to navigate this menu. Skip the hard-shell tacos—go straight for the pollo asado. The flame-grilled chicken carries a subtle, undeniable smokey char, keeping both breast and thigh cuts perfectly succulent. Westside flavor chasers consistently point to the burrito bowls as the undisputed champion of the postcode. Packed to the brim, bright with fresh salsa, and featuring the ultimate flex: absolutely no extra charge for guacamole. Snag a seat outside on a balmy evening. Wash down those plates with a cerveza bien fría—a frosty Modelo does the trick—and soak up the unpretentious, flavor-first vibe.
