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 San Diego,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 went in this evening around 7pm with my girlfriend, the service was amazing and the young lady that took my order was very polite and the hospitality is always a 10/10 as usual but a young man was what I could tell harassing towards our cashier WHILE taking our order. He kept on going on after saying the n word and throwing up “gang signs” repeatedly. I just want to hold this young man accountable because his behavior and language made the experience uneasy and is unacceptable for any establishment.

    Got me a chicken burrito which was 70% rice, 20% beans and the rest is bite of chicken and cheese.... Felt like they were making bean, rice, cheese burrito and accidentally dropped a piece of chicken in it! It tasted good and was nicely grilled but it wasnt a chicken burrito... So definitely not worth 9$ for 1 burrito. I ordered to go, and when I got back, there was not a single salsa or any sauce for my food, so I end up with sad burrito, luckily I had bottle of my hot sauce. 3 star for service because they didnt care to put at least 1 salsa in bag or chicken in burrito
