About

Mexican RestaurantCatererChicken RestaurantFast Food Restaurant
While some things have changed over the last few decades, El Pollo Loco's delivery of fresh, authentic food has not. Everything starts with whole chickens that are slowly marinated in a special recipe of herbs, spices, fruit juices and garlic. The chicken is then expertly fire-grilled to perfection the authentic way - on our signature open-flame grills - then hand cut into your favorite Mexican entrees. We put that same dedication and care into our handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day. At El Pollo Loco in Glendale,AZ, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.

    The food is delicious don’t get me wrong. Love everything here. But for a double chicken tostada. The amount of chicken is very minimal. I should have just got the regular and probably had more chicken. So sad. The chicken is the best part!

    The chicken smelled spoiled when I arrived home. If it was, someone could have gotten sick. I threw it away
