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 San Marcos,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 dont really care for their chicken butt. But guess what? Hahaha see what I did there. Grow a chicken pair and wear feathered underwear. Cuz it got crazy chickens there so try not to stare and eat there if you dare. But I don’t really care for the crazy chicken find me chicken at KFC or Popeyes Popeyes I believe has the most expensive Chicken on the planet. Fun fact

1st of all, no one spoke English. It was difficult to place our order. The tostadas were mostly lettuce with very little beans and less than a teaspoon of what looked like diced chicken. The chicken quesadilla was mostly cheese. I’ve never had such poor quality food. Terrible at best!

i went to get dinner for my wife and I and of all things. They had No Chicken ready and ask me to wait for 20 minutes if I wanted Chicken. They said it’s been busy and no Chicken was available.
What kink of Management is running this place that they run out of the main product. Unbelivable, good food horrible management. Very disappointed.

I was told that chicken was cooked at the restaurant that was not so this chicken is cooked and catered from a different location.
Chicken was small and a bit dry.

If I could give it a zero star I would
Horrible customer service! We placed an order at 8:19pm got there at 8:25pm like it said and they couldn’t find our order. It took over an hour for them to “make our food” just for them to tell us that someone erased it on the monitor and the bag was sitting on the counter.
Thinking everything was already sealed in the bag and they got the order correct, it was my mistake to not double check because when it was time to eat the double chicken tostada was not correct and we were missing an order!!! Not only that but because our order was not freshly made again after waiting for more than 20min our food was cold!
We had to toss the tostada because there was beans in it amongst other toppings that we asked to not include but the beans is seriously what we specifically requested to not have as we are allergic.
Such a disappointment at this location!

When I stopped by for lunch today I forgot my coupon. As a result, I asked the manager for a coupon and he was aggravated, rude and told me he wasn’t supposed to give them to customers.?. Very disappointing, because they’ve never had a problem providing them in the past and El Pollo Loco has been one of our favorite restaurants, but I won’t support a business who treats people poorly. Boudin’s down the street was a great alternative with good food and a welcoming atmosphere.
