About

Mexican RestaurantCatererChicken RestaurantFast Food Restaurant
While some things have changed over the last few decades, El Pollo Loco's commitment to 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 Las Vegas,NV, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.

    Food came with half the ingredients, called to speak to a manager left on hold 10 mins, called back 2× they didn't want to answer 1. Talked to Kiara Tierra something like that, very immature unprofessional and rude!!! She needs to be retrained she needs better customer service skills or she needs to be fired... The manager couldn't be bothered she needs to be fired. $30.00 person lettuce a little bit of rest and chicken flakes I'll put your logo should be ashamed of himself at this location

    I love this place. You can’t go round with getting a Pollo Loco bowl for five dollars.

    Worst place to be when you're hungry and in a rush. Went around 3:00 p.m. just me and my pup to get something for the road .I ordered online. My order was a guacamole chicken burrito with the large drink and a kids meal for my pup. We did the online order ahead of time and went through the drive-thru to pick up. When I went to the drive-thru to pick up the poor guy stated that he was working alone and that he would bring out my order once it was ready if I could park in the front. I told him okay and waited 30 minutes. After 30 minutes I went through the drive-thru again waved at the guy and he said he was so sorry because he was working alone. I sympathized even though I was still waiting for it and I have somewhere I had to go. When I got my food it was cold and I was missing the drink. I let the guy know that about the drink and that the food was cold. He just apologized again but because I had to go. No one helped him and that was unfortunate. when I looked behind him as he was getting the large drink I saw that the line crew was just messing around. It's such a shame. In the end the order was wrong. That chicken guacamole burrito had only beans and really hard leftover chicken that had been chopped hours ago.
