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.

    1they gave me nachos and I ate it, arrived at home having multiple rashes and hives on my face because of the guacamole, and game me extra nachos not my churros. Also the tomato and veggies are spicy when they said it didn’t have jalapeño. 2 the floor was dirty and a employee just dropped soda in the floor and “cleaned it up” and the floor became so stick and the bathroom are just. DESGUSTING. The bathroom is full of graffiti, gum even some poop on the wall I’m never coming back.
