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

Don't eat here in the mornings, or for lunch. I have on multiple occasions eaten spoiled chicken from here. Not sure if they use the meat from the day before, or if the meat is just bad. I have eaten at nearly every location in Big Bear, and this places chicken is sour, and tastes spoiled, on multiple occasions....
