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 Jose,CA, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.
Chicken was dry. Order was messed up and had to be fixed. But the tables were clean, the indoor dining was comfortable, the staff was friendly. Not by best El Pollo Loco experience, but not the worst either.

We order often. Usually good but definitely not this last Wednesday. They committed the cardinal sin. The food was leftover from àt least a day earlier. Very bad. It was obviously old chicken! The $30.00 special WAS NOT SPECIAL. DRIED OUT!!!

Double chicken tostada bowl is my go to, it's very good and can't be beat for the price. It makes me feel like I'm eating healthy.
