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

    It's not the same. The food portions are smaller and it didn't taste the same.

    Best general Manager (Anahi) ive seen at this store ! It is much cleaner than before and the food is so much better. Ive been coming here for 3 year's and this place has done a 360 with the New Manager at this Store. She is a hands on Manager, you can count on her to have things moving smoothly when you order. I recommend eating here whenever shes at the store. Great experience 10 out of 10

    El Pollo Loco is a dependable fast-casual spot for flame-grilled chicken that actually tastes fresh. The citrusy marinade and charred edges give it more flavor than typical fast food. Sides are simple but solid. It’s quick, affordable, and consistent. Not exciting, but a reliable option when you want something lighter that still feels satisfying.

    They just remodeled and opened up. As an establishment, all their food offerings taste like water.
