My family and I ordered to go, and they forgot a part of our order. My sister drove back, and once she came back to eat, she found a hair in her burrito. I had to go back again, and informed them but they didn’t seem to care. They didn’t even look in the burrito when I was showing them. There was clearly a red, long hair, the same as the woman in the front giving orders. They didn’t honor what I asked for, so I got another meal in place for the burrito. They also told my sister they didn’t have creamy cilantro sauce when she first ordered, but I received it with the tostada I got. Not sure why they would lie to customers. They all definitely took the whole situation lightly. A hair and two trips back to the restaurant 👎🏻

First, they don’t even greet you, restaurant inside seems like a middle school cafeteria meaning, floors dirty, food all over the place, the cashier Emonie didn’t even say hi, just looked at me and waited for me to say my order, the girl given out the food had an annoyed face, for being the people that you see upfront it was not very welcoming whatsoever. Both cashier and girl handling the food has nasty energy. It will be my last time here. I tried to give it some couple of more tries but seems like management can care less.

Ugh. I went through the drive thru and ordered a Fit Bowl, specifically the Double Chicken Avocado Protein Bowl As you can see, I didn't get any Avocado. The whole salad is a pathetic mess. I read something about cauliflower rice? Nope. This is disgusting. Definitely not worth the price. Don't waste your time. The description also said 'power greens' I definitely don't consider iceberg lettuce powerful 😂😂😂💀💀💀. WHAT A RIPOFF

El Pollo Loco has become one of my go-to spots for a satisfying and flavorful Mexican-inspired meal. Their dedication to delivering authentic cuisine and their commitment to quality have consistently impressed me. While there are a few areas that could use improvement, overall, El Pollo Loco provides a delightful dining experience.

One of the highlights of El Pollo Loco is their signature flame-grilled chicken. The tender and juicy meat, infused with smoky flavors, is a testament to their grilling expertise. Whether you choose the classic chicken pieces or opt for their flavorful chicken bowls and tacos, the quality and taste are consistently excellent. The marinades and seasonings perfectly enhance the natural flavors of the chicken, creating a truly satisfying and mouthwatering experience.

Additionally, El Pollo Loco offers a variety of Mexican-inspired sides and accompaniments that complement their main dishes. From their savory rice and flavorful beans to their fresh and vibrant salsa options, each component adds depth and authenticity to the meal. The vibrant flavors and vibrant colors of their sides truly enhance the overall dining experience.

While El Pollo Loco excels in taste and authenticity, there have been occasional instances where the service or wait times have been less than ideal. The staff, although generally friendly, could benefit from improved attentiveness and efficiency during peak hours. However, I appreciate their efforts in maintaining a clean and inviting environment that reflects the spirit of Mexican culture.

In conclusion, El Pollo Loco is a reliable choice for flavorful and authentic Mexican cuisine. Their flame-grilled chicken is a standout, and the variety of sides and accompaniments further enhance the overall experience. While improvements in service and wait times would elevate the dining experience, the quality of food and the dedication to delivering Mexican flavors make El Pollo Loco a worthwhile destination for those seeking a tasty and...

I recently visited the El Pollo Loco located at [insert specific location] and I have to say, I was blown away by the incredible service and delicious food!

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and friendly service. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, and the aroma of fresh, delicious food filled the air. The staff were all incredibly attentive, making sure that my meal was exactly what I wanted and that I had everything I needed to enjoy my meal.

Now let's talk about the food - it was absolutely amazing! The chicken was cooked to perfection, juicy and flavorful with just the right amount of seasoning. The sides were equally delicious, with the rice being fluffy and perfectly cooked, and the beans having a rich, smoky flavor that complemented the chicken perfectly. And the tortillas were so fresh and warm, they practically melted in my mouth.

But what really stood out to me was the customer service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure that I had a great experience. They were attentive, friendly, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure that I had a great meal. They even offered suggestions on different items I could try on my next visit!

Overall, I can't say enough great things about this specific El Pollo Loco location. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff was top-notch. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by this location for an amazing meal and fantastic customer service. You won't be...

Worst service ever! I ordered my food through the app and said 4-9 minutes. So I give it 10 minutes. I go inside and they give me the wrong order. I tell them my name and still ask what I ordered. I tell them. Wait another 10 minutes so they can ask again what I ordered. 10 minutes again I'm impatient and ask them what the heck where is my order and again ask what I ordered. Then they tell me no they don't have anymore carnitas. WHAT THE HELL! they couldn't have told me that in the beginning while waiting 30 minutes!! And they weren't nice about it either. I asked for money back and they ask for receipt I tell them I did it online and they can't find my order....this is so frustrating. While I was waiting the people were getting angry too their orders were taking long and there's 6 people on the line, no one on the counter because they have machines you can order with and a customer had cash which the machine doesn't take and she gave attitude because she had to take his order. Is this seriously what fast food is...
