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 Barstow,CA, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.

    The only problem with this review is that I cannot give SIX STARS. I love EPL and we were looking for a new stop on our way back from Vegas to LA and this came as a blessing! All the EPL awesomeness you’re used to, friendly service, lovely patrons, and clean restrooms! Also my family was always making fun of me for my love of El Pollo Loco and now they are all converts!!
