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 Newbury Park, 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 isn’t a dig at this location, rather at el polo loco as a company, and the ownership/management. It boggles my mind how incompetent people are able to run companies like this. I wanted to place an order here for the first time in years. I registered via Apple in the el pollo loco app, but every time I try to log in I get an error. I request a password reset email, but it never arrives. I try to register for a new account, but my email is already in use. I try to use a different email address to create an account, but it says my phone number is already in use. I have no recourse. You would think people running a business like el pollo loco would be competent enough to work out the bugs in their app to ensure this doesn’t happen to their customers but they are not. Now I’ll go back to never eating here.

    We needed a catering box last-minute to feed volunteers, and this El Pollo Loco made it happen much faster than the website showed they could! Good thing we called. Thank you so much to the manager and employees. The burritos, chips and guac, and churros were delicious and enjoyed by all.
