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

    Got it — same fun, less smug. Here you go: It’s El Pollo Loco, so the line can move a bit slower since they make the food to order. Honestly though, it’s still usually faster than In-N-Out. You get fresh, grilled food that actually feels lighter than most drive-thru options, and it’s easy to grab something quick without feeling weighed down afterward. Reliable, tasty, and a great go-to when you want fast food that doesn’t feel like a bad decision. Definitely my favorite drive-thru chain.

    I love the grilled chicken at Pollo Loco. And today they have more fast food Mexican dishes to offer at a good price.

    Super small side of rice for over $5 bucks is so ridicules the price for such tiny portion. I saw this until I got home and realized that was not even enough for one person. Very upset about this insult to the portion. The drive thru person sound like being upset because doing orders and doing the window just show no atención to then person in the window because they rush to take orders. Order the 8pc chicken and is way over cooked, to dry to eat, I live far and not worth driving back to return and talk to a person there, is been bad experience and not just this location but other pollo loco stores I been too. Inconsistent, wrong orders, overcharged, attitudes, not the experience they promise. Literarily not worth. The only reason I left this comment is because I hope this was a mistake and some action is taken.
