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

    HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Yesterday I was hungry so my family and I went to this Pollo Loco We ordered chicken, Mac n cheese and some horchata. The next day while I was getting ready to go to work I felt nauseous. I THREW UP THE CHICKEN AND MAC N CHEESE. I thought it was a one time thing but no I threw up again and then again, making a total of 3 vomits in ONE morning. My stomach hurts now so much. Because of this I contacted my family that also ate the Pollo Loco with me and said the same thing. One of my family members said that they have thrown up 5 times in one morning and have diarrhea. We have a baby in our family as well that also ate El Pollo Loco and her mom said that the baby also got diarrhea and has thrown up several times. I am beyond disappointed with this place and no longer would recommend for ANYONE to eat here. Because of this place food my family and I have to now go to the hospital. If I could I would give this place ZERO STARS 😡

    Ayer miércoles 6 de Mayo 2026 pasé por el drive thru a comprar un paquete familiar, eso fue en la tarde también compré 2 horchatas . A la hora de haber comido pollo loco de esta tienda mi hija de 2 años empezó con diarrea, vomito 5 veces ayer. Después como a las 10:00pm empese yo la madre con vómito y diarrea toda la noche. Hoy jueves mayo 7 2026 . Mi hija de 12 años empezó con vómito alrededor de las 6:00am. Hoy mi hija de 12 años tenía un examen importante del Estado. Lamentablemente para mí , no la puedo mandar con vómito y malestar estomacal. Es obvio el pollo or el macarrón and cheese , o la horchata estaban contaminados. Es seguro que no están cumpliendo con las reglas de salubridad en cuanto a la preparación de los alimentos. Tengo my recibo a demás pague con tarjeta chase.

    I had a fantastic experience at El Pollo Loco. This location is convenient and easy to access, making it perfect for a quick lunch, dinner, or takeout. The restaurant itself is clean, bright, and well-maintained. The seating area is comfortable, and the overall atmosphere feels welcoming and casual, which makes it a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The staff were friendly, attentive, and efficient. Even during a busy period, they handled orders smoothly and made sure everything was accurate and prepared on time. Their customer service really enhances the overall dining experience. The food at El Pollo Loco was excellent. The chicken was flavorful, juicy, and perfectly cooked, and the sides were fresh and tasty. I especially appreciated the variety of options on the menu, from classic chicken meals to salads and bowls, which makes it easy to find something for everyone. Overall, El Pollo Loco is a reliable choice for delicious, fast, and satisfying Mexican-style chicken meals. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone in the area!
