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

    When I received my order it was missing an item. When I brought that to the staffs attention they treated me very disrespectfully. After a while they did finally make the missing item. Food wasn’t terrible but I won’t be back based on service alone.

    I just had nachos with chicken. Q bit pricey for what it is. There were only two little pieces of chicken. It was mostly beans on the nachos. Not impressed with that. Pricey for what it was.

    If you close at 10, then close at 10. Not 9.

    Just got the meal for two to go. There was very little staff, I get that, it’s Sunday, but we just got home and we’re missing multiple items. The chips and salsa we ordered isn’t there, no tortillas, the staff throw the food on the counter, call your number and just disappear. We went because my wife likes the previous time she went, but unless the chicken is amazing I’m unlikely to want to go back because now I’m just bent out of shape
