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

    Wonderful food at an affordable price with an engaging team. Takes a good village to garner that reputation and foster a clean, enthusiastic work culture

    Went through the drive-thru messed up my order . I call the restaurant when I got home. She said she was she was going to write my name down so I can go back another day and get a meal. I drove all the way back the manager wouldn't even help me he wouldn't even talk to me she told me that they have nothing for me. Bad service. He treated me like if I was a guy from the streets asking for free food.
