I wouldn't suggest going to this location it's independently owned and they falsely advertise this banner with four different combos starting at $5.99 but won't honor them. It's a scam don't go here it's not a corporate store. It's independently owned and they will rip you off. One time I ordered a regular El Pollo Bowl they're supposed to be only $5.99 they charged me $8. And every time I go in there it almost feels like they're annoyed that people come in. I used to go to this place at least two or three times a week not anymore. I'll drive a little further to a corporate location

This location was amazing. The customer service was excellent for a fast food restaurant. I was not rushed when ordering and was able to take my time. Cashier had extra coupons and offer them to me to help make my food choices a little better price wise. The food was hot and fresh tasting. Chicken was not burned but actually cooked. The chicken tacos were nice and full of chicken meat, making for a nice filling taco. The churros I had were fresh but colud have had more cinnamon/sugar on them. But overall A great eating experience that is well worth the visit.

El Pollo Loco is my favorite fast food place. Every time I see it I stop by. Its very delicious and fresh. You can see chickens being cooked right there. I love it for a simple menu with real not fake products like in the similar other places. You know what Im talking about. Its hard to find a good fresh fast food this days. Very nice people work here. Clean. Great! Thank you!

This location has terrible customer service. Older gentleman that works there week nights should take a class or find a new job. He's always grumpy, acting like you're wasting his time. Tonight the drive through closed in my face for the second time! The car in front of me ordered, then they shut all the lights off right in front of me. I thought it was a joke but nope. Order in Spanish and you get slightly better service- tested. Don't worry won't be a next time. Juan Pollo right down the street.This location has terrible customer service.

Pollo loco has a very great ๐Ÿ‘ variety of food ๐Ÿ˜‹ and healthy. I visit many restaurants but this particular place is very unmanaged the store manager needs to find out what is going on with the cooks..specially because you guys cooking raw chicken ๐Ÿ” i visit this place like 20 times they forget to put my tortillas, and salsa. In my order my chicken was burn ๐Ÿ”ฅ out side and inside was raw.๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿ˜ก I take i bite i feel like vomiting. Was bloody ๐Ÿ˜ณ ๐Ÿ˜• I hope ๐Ÿ™ the supervisor came and check this problems anyone can die. This is very important i hope ๐Ÿ™ this restaurant put more attention in this matter. This is very important. I call the restaurant to bring the chicken back the person that unser start urging with me. Call me a lier..WOW I DON'T WANT NOTHING ๐Ÿ˜• FREE I JUST WANT TO BRING THIS MATTER TO THE RIGHT PERSON THAT CARES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS VERY SICK. OR THE BOARD OF HEALTH STEPS IN..PLEASE CHECK WHAT...

I eat here often since my friend is such a big fan of Pollo loco. So today I decided to try something different other than sticking to my regular order. So I tried the new cotija wings... ๐Ÿคข nope! Very disappointed. Couldnt eat it. l was upset and still hungry. After a few hrs passed, it was still bothering me why didnt I just go back? I called and asked for the manager on duty & was greated by the manager himself. He was so polite, very nice and helpful. Asked me to come in and took my order so it was ready when I walked in. No questions or attitude. I was so happy. I dont remember his name but he was working friday Feb. 21st around 7:20pm hopefully he reads this. I thank you for your great service. I will probably thank you again next time I get...
