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 Pharr,TX, 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.

Good and quick. Had their 2 pice chicken meal. Green sauce is awesome. Beans need some salt, or flavor but that is my only issue for otherwise good fast food.

Place is clean and quiet. There’s not a lot of people but the prices are kind of expensive when it comes to the Family Combos. If you come here thinking its like the one’s at Mexico; it is nothing like it, only the Family Combos IF that.

Boy things have really changed in my opinion.. the quality of their food has really become sub- standard. It has made me rethink fast food- it’s bad enough that the price has really went UP! And quality is way down. Breaks my heart. I’ve loved Pollo Loco for about 30 years and I’m not going back. I’ll find a food truck before I go there again. Even Stripes gas station is better

This was my first time at El Pollo Loco ever.

Service- I downloaded the app just see what kind of food and combos were available. I decided to get everyone’s (my parents, my 2 year old and I ) order at the table. I was going to order through the app, but it said it would take 30 minutes to complete. Since we were already there, I decided to order at the counter.
The first thing I ordered was the Meal for 2 which included 4 pieces of chicken, 2 salads, 2 sides and 4 tortillas. This seemed to be only available in the app, so I ordered from the app since this meal option was not available at the counter.
The food said it would be ready in 30 minutes, I went to my table and when the time came close, I sat down in the front to wait. The servers were messing around with each other while they were filling other orders. I watched my order sit on the counter as they would add separate items to the order. My order was at least 10 minutes late. While I sat there waiting for them to finish it. Not cooking it, just packing it.

Food-
So here is what we ordered..

1) Meal for Two –
Chicken was somewhat small as a portion. It tasted good. I ordered regular ranch dressing with the salads, but they put the cilantro dressing on both. The rice was good. The churros

2) Birria 2 Crunchy Taco Box –
“Crunchy” tacos seemed to be deep fried and dripping in oil. Oddly enough, the cheese inside wasn’t melted. Very oily and very messy. The tortillas were so “crispy” that they were falling apart when I opened the foil. The meat had a good flavor. I ordered my tacos without cilantro and onion, the consumé was chock full of onion and cilantro. The cilantro overpowered the taste of the consumé. I didn’t eat the Mac and Cheese, the Loco Salad was good.

3) Shredded Chicken Nachos –
Chicken was oddly cold…on nachos. Chicken has a nice flavor but again…it was cold.

4) 2 PC Chicken Leg Kids Meal –
Everything was fine with the kids meal.

5) 2 Medium Drinks – All the drinks
Not sure if it’s the water or the syrup was going out but all the drinks tasted funny.

Overall- Not impressed with the service or food. The chicken was good, but small. I am willing try the one back in Colorado when we get home.

Eating el Pollo loco is one of the best fast food options in terms of health. In my opinion The chickens delicious and I enjoy getting the avocado chicken salad with tortillas on the side to make my own tacos.

Great food and awesome staff, specially a señor that always greets me with “welcome to pollo loco!” 🙂

Nonetheless there’s a red hair girl manager that sucks, she doesn’t have the attitude to be a leader lol

This was my first time here and this place is garbage! I paid $10 for a “overstuffed quesadilla” and this is what I got. My food was cold and just not worth it. The rice is undercooked and just ugh! Never again. I will stick to Chipotle

It was good..huge quesadilla, chips and drink for 5.99. that’s a good deal. I like the touch less fountain drink area. The premises were very clean as was the bathroom.
