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 Costa Mesa,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 ordered 3 chipotle, guacamole, chicken burritos for my family. The name of the burrito must have been metaphorical, as there was literally 0 guacamole, 0 spice, and only one or two cubes of chicken per burrito. I am a little bit disappointed. When I say no guacamole or spice, I really mean NO guacamole or spice.

    It's El Pollo, not fancy, but good. Don't have on Hawaii so I'll stop once in a while when here in SoCal. Consistent food and taste.

    I usually don't post bad experiences, but this is the last time I'm going to this place. It's the closest one to my house, so I thought I'd give it a third try, and it was the worst. I went to use my rewards at the window, and when she scanned my phone, she said it was still $16.95, almost $17. That's when I told her I was using rewards, so she scanned my phone again. The tostada salad came off, but the charge was still around $9. I asked why, and she said they charged me for a little extra cheese, for my salsa for my salad (which should be included), and then she said they charged me for a large Coke when I just asked for a regular. I also asked for no sour cream, but there was sour cream in my salad. I asked for extra napkins and only got two. They charged me for my dressing; I asked for one extra and got charged for it, but only got one. On top of all that, I asked for a Coke Zero and they gave me a Diet Coke, so basically my whole order was wrong. There's barely any chicken in my salad, and I'm eating a tostada with extra cheese, extra lettuce, a little bit of beans, and some rice. I will definitely never return, and I will happily go to the one 5 Mi away
