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 Los Angeles,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 food was over cooked and dry. Worker told me it was fresh, but happen to get over cooked 🙄... I had to keep telling her, I don't want overcooked chicken wings

    I grabbed a chicken tostada salad tonight through the drive thru. Got home and haven’t eaten for most of the day, and there was only 6 tiny pieces of chicken in my salad. Lots of lettuce but barely any chicken. After reading a few other reviews about this location, don’t know if I’ll be coming back.

    Could have been 5 stars, but one time their salsa made me sick. They are generally better than the one in Monterey Park, where the bowls are very soggy

    Ordered at the drive through , got a combo almost just for the chips, drove away only to find they didn’t include them. The drink was a diet when I asked for a regular. Asked for chicken avocado tacos with avocado on the side…no avocado was given at all. Everything very sloppily put together. I hate to leave a review like this and I usually avoid it, I’m sure they must be understaffed, I would have rather waited a few minutes longer in the drive thru line and gotten decent food and a correct order though
