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

    Finally reduced prices back to normal pollo loco prices, but the place is a disappointment now. Kiosk didn’t give receipt, took almost half an hour to get a pollo bowl, pollo bowl clearly had way less in it than other pollo locos give then opened to find out it was missing food (the pico de gallo), and didn’t have salsas. Clearly understaffed and just overall terrible now. Just go to the Panda Express even if it has a long line. Edit: Food is too salty as well. Forgot to mention you don’t even get your food even if it’s ready, they’ll wait until it’s your turn numerically so your food might get cold like mine.

    The only issue that I've been dealing with all fastfood places is due to kiosk, more attention is given to drive thru customers while dining in customers seem to have to wait longer on placing and receiving meals. Plus more fastfood places ignore keeping dining areas clean and all trash cans are full and overflowing.
