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 Phoenix,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 service here was really slow, and it took 45 minutes to get my food. I ended up asking for it to go instead of eating there because the wait was just too long.

    I'm going to start by saying that I know El Pollo Loco has great food. Unfortunately I was waiting so long I didn't get to order any. I was the only person in line, no one bothered to help me for over 10 minutes. Door dash pick up walked in, they went to help him, which i was fine with, but his order wasn't even ready. So instead of taking my order while he waited, they turned around and decided to wait for his order at the prep table. Not a big deal except none of it was ready so now I'm just waiting to be acknowledged. Nothing. So unfortunately I didn't actually get to order, I left after almost 15 minutes, no one else in line the whole time. If I want food from El Pollo Loco bad enough I'll go to another location. On the bright side, went to church's a mile south and my order was taken and had my food within 6 minutes. Also got more food for less.
