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 Rancho Palos Verdes,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.

Absolutely a very horrific experience. The food must’ve been sitting on the grill for at least an hour. The employees were laughing and giggling it took so long to get my food. And I was the only one in the restaurant at 805 pm. Your employees need to learn Customer Service. Your restaurant used to be so good. The food used to be so fresh.

Food was freshly cooked and very hot. I’ve never received my order before quite so hot. Employee that helped us was friendly, and professional. The restaurant was clean and items like napkins and straws were well stocked.

Stopped by El Pollo Loco during lunch rush on my way to work and had an amazing experience! Let Veronica know I was in a pinch and she crushed it – food was ready in under a minute . Big shoutout to Veronica and the kitchen crew for the lightning-fast service!

Restroom doors need to be fixed, it’s really to open the door, they don’t even have hand soap, I don’t want to think this is the way employees handle all the items inside the kitchen.

The chicken and avocado burrito is good. Prices are ok. The interior is clean and inviting at this location.
I tried the fitness bowl. The quality of the lettuce did not live up to expectations set by the Pollo loco TV commercials. The grilled chicken was quite OK.

Great service and to my surprise, the new menu item(tortilla soup) was extremely tasty and the serving portion was very generous. It’s a must try!

My boyfriend ordered 2 double chicken tostadas and one was without pico gallo cause I’m allergic to tomatoes and he ordered both of them with xtra rice and xtra beans and they only gave us light beans and light rice hence we paid for extra bad customer service and chicken felt like it wasn’t fully cooked on the outside but I’m giving a 2 star rating despite it being bad customer service and didn’t get what we paid for because my boyfriend said the food was really good the taste and flavor but I didn’t get to eat it cause the allergy I have

I love this location so much. It’s worth the extra drive. Staff is so cool and awesome. Parking is a bit hard during rush hour. Overall service is way better than other locations.

Great quality food at a reasonable price. The food is always delicious and freshly prepared. They have 3 homemade salsas available for dine in and takeout. The freshly grilled chicken always hits the spot.
The staff has always been nice with fast service. This location is on the small size, it’s located in The Terraces strip mall. It’s always been nice and clean.
A good experience overall. I recommend it.
