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.

Plate reduced in size, price $ 16.78. No wonder place is almost empty with 4 customer at the dining. Well this is the last time I buy food from El Pollo Loco, deberas que estan re-locos.

    First time here to this El Pollo Loco. Received Great Customer Service from Fernando. I decided to have the Double chicken Street corn Salad with the creamy cilantro dressing and it was very delicious for having it the first time around I highly recommend it. Also I added 3 Chicken tacos Al carbon which were delicious aswell . For a fountain drink I had a coke which went along with my salad very well lol . The restroom and dining area was very clean . Parking was a bit hectic since it's in a shopping center but I did find a parking available. I give this Pollo Loco five stars for this visit. Thanks for making my day with a Great Lunch .
