El Pollo Loco

  3.8 – 618 reviews   • Mexican restaurant

Social Profile:

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

Fast-food chain outpost known for Mexican classics made with fire-grilled chicken.

I was super surprised to see so many negative reviews for this El Pollo Loco. I have only had fantastic food and service at this location, and on top of that it has a chic decor scheme going on. It has a station where you can order on a touch screen (which I never use) and if I order from a human I never get shade from them for not using the kiosk. (yes, this is a thing at many fast food restaurants) The food is freshly prepared and always in uniform quantities with all my other visits. Honestly just a quality restaurant all around. I highly recommend this El Pollo Loco store!

Clean. Arrived 1030am w only 1 other guest. I was solo. My order receipt said 10:37, I received food at 10:47. I thought the wait was kinda long given no other guests were there. Service was messed. Food was as expected.

Ordered two pollo bowl combos, asked for green sauce and jalapeños. When I picked up my order at the front the manager already had an attitude when i asked for my chicken to be fully chopped i mean please its all still whole,picture is after i cut it up with my fingers theres still some meat together i just put to the side since it was fat. When i opened the bag of jalapeños they were rotten. I hesitated to go up front once again because i just didnt wanna deal the manager’s attitude but i wanted to bring this to her attention because this is a health hazard i walked up showed her she didn’t say a world went down and grab another bag of jalapeños i kindly said to her its ok i dont know if they are from the same batch they also may be bad. She didnt say a word again. if your a manager atleast apologize for the inconvenience and check the rest or throw them away you didnt apologize at all like if it was my fault for even asking for them in the first place. Sad you would treat a customer like that . Pollo loco location is really nice , its unfortunate that it has a manager that does not care for their customers well being.

I used to go to this El Pollo a few years back and it went downhill. But now I have to say it was absolutely excellent now. There’s no more chopping up old chicken and putting it in the plates they actually throw the old chicken into a bucket.

My review is only the food. But yeah I ordered the double chicken bowl not the sad boy kinda has chicken bowl. Not much to say looks fine but is sorely lacking in the actual chicken.

At first walking in was freezing it’s 7:30 and it’s absolutely freezing inside. My fingers are numb, but nevertheless I still proceeded to order the food and the lady at the registered name is Nuchie well at least that’s what the receipt says, very rude and we legit looking like she wanted everyone to leave. So to the food part it was horrible by it being freezing in here our food was cold, so me and a couple at another table asked the manager if she can turn it down or off because it feels like a meat locker and she told us no…… ps don’t go here rude and unless u want to freeze with frozen food don’t come ….. and I had a gristle in my food

The food was so good and I was so hungry that I forgot to take a photo before I started. The family combo was perfect for two. The churro’s texture was great and it was exactly what I needed to conclude my lunch. I also need to thank the person who helped me with order. It was my first time at polo loco at he helped me with the menu. I’ll add more photos next time.
