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

    I can’t believe the way the quality & taste of food has gone down! The price of eating out is very high so when I go out to eat I at least expect edible & I had to just throw our food away. The lady was Very Rude in the Drive Thru…. I Don’t Recommend At All!! For the price we paid I could have went elsewhere where I know the food is Great but decided to give El Pollo Loco on Hammer Ln a try today. I WANT A REFUND IN COMPLETION!

    We bought a few chicken crunchy tacos to go. When we got home we notice a long hair in one of our tacos. We called to complain, because we were already home, the lady on the phone said next time we come to just remind them and they will replace taco. In case we lost our receipt, she took down my wife’s name. When we returned, a couple weeks later, a worker named Christina refused to replace the taco. She was very rude and said that we should have come sooner with a receipt. The food here is decent, but customer service is horrible. They are always rude and disrespectful. Word of advice, take care of your customers, be kind and nice, be grateful that you have a job. Remember, customers are the reason you have a job. Being grateful can easily change the atmosphere in your location. Taking our business somewhere else.
