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

    First and last time eating at El Pollo Loco. Bought my son a kid's meal, he was eating the chicken when he noticed an extremely long black hair in his food. Really grossed out, don't think we will be back.

    We ordered a meal, which consisted of 8 pieces, 3 sides and churros. When we drove off, we thought we were given everything. When we arrived at the soccer field we were going to, we found no forks, no plates, no napkins and one large side was completely missing. All we were able to eat was the churros and the chicken drumsticks. Not having the plates, utensils and napkins was frustrating, especially since we weren't even asked if we wanted them or not, but not being given one of the large sides was very upsetting.

    On August 21 around 11:53 AM, I had the pleasure of being helped by Collean at the El Pollo Loco on Winchester Road in Winchester, California. We ordered one double chicken tostada combo, one guacamole burrito, two chicken avocado tacos, and one crunchy chicken taco. Our order was taking a little longer than expected, but Collean noticed right away and went above and beyond by giving me two hot, fresh churros while we waited. It was such a thoughtful gesture and really brightened my day! The food was absolutely delicious as well everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Having worked in customer service myself, I really appreciate when someone delivers such genuine, kind, and attentive service. Collean made our visit memorable, and she absolutely deserves a big shout-out. Even though this review is a little late, I didn’t forget her excellent service!
