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

    Always a great experience at El Pollo Loco, but I have to give a special shoutout to Vannesa Whenever she’s there, you already know the food is going to be on point no doubt about it. Everything comes out fresh, hot, and exactly how it should be every single time You can tell she takes pride in what she does and it shows in the quality and consistency. Honestly, she deserves a raise or a promotion If Vannesa is working, you’re getting a 1000% great meal every time

    I visited this location on Friday, between 5-6 pm. I asked for a 3 piece combo. The cashier that took my order had me waiting extremely long in line. He did not greet me and was rude from the beginning. To conclude he needs a lot more training before being let alone to take orders. He was clearly confused and did not know what to do.

    Went to get dinner on 03/07/26 and cashier Idania was extremely rude! I ordered an 8p family meal and she asked if it was for here or to go. We said it was for here but when we got our order there was no plates or utensils added when we mentioned it was for here… She gave us the wrong salsas as well it just made the whole experience terrible. Idania already seemed annoyed prior to her taking our order as we were looking at the menu beforehand. She definitely needs training in her attitude because she is working in a customer service position.
