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

    This location apparently closes 30 minutes before their posted closing time and when one employee welcomes you the other tells you they’re closed and no longer serving by 9:30pm. Very unprofessional and deceiving. Either change your posted hours of operation or hire workers that actually want to work.

    El Pollo Loco – Chicken So Good, I Considered Proposing Listen, I came for chicken and left questioning my loyalty to all other fast food. El Pollo Loco’s fire-broiled chicken is so good it should be illegal—or at least come with a warning: May cause spontaneous happy dancing. Juicy, smoky, and seasoned like someone's abuela put a spell on it. 10/10 would betray my diet again. Shout to the Manager Axel! extraordinary service.
