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 El Cajon, 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.

It was all right. Overpriced, and they gave me flour tortillas rather than the corn I asked for, plus the broccoli needed some seasoning! Chicken & potatoes were great though the pieces were small for what they charge. Salsa was fresh, spicy too. Not sure if I’ll ever return (it was my first time giving them a try after living in the area for over a year).

had an amazing experience thanks to Aruzo. They were extremely helpful, patient, and professional the entire time. They went above and beyond to make sure I understood everything and felt taken care of. Their customer service was outstanding — friendly, clear, and very respectful.

The lady got my order wrong. I ended up having to yell really loud to be able to have her hear me on the drive-through and when I got home, I usually love the chicken, but the chicken was super dried out was not good at all so I was very disappointed.

Came here on November 14th around 11:30. Asked for the chipotle chicken quesadilla meal with the chipotle on the side and 1 crunchy chicken taco. Paid almost $20…pretty sure they changed me for 2 tacos. Other than that my quesadilla had A PINCH of cheese. He handed me my bag with chipotle sauce all over the handles and bag & all over my reciept. My tiny quac that came with it was half way Full. What a joke. For $20…I’ll add photos of my quesadilla

Fresh healthy food, friendly staff, quick service. Ordered 8 mixed piece family meal with broccoli and rice for the sides. The meal was ready within 5 minutes. Fresh sauce counter was also very clean and well-maintained.

My order is almost always wrong. I understand difficulties in fast food. Even if they give me the wrong food, or they go brain dead when i order more than one thing.. I’ll let it go and pay for less than what i got and eat it. But dang. i don’t even wanna come to this pollo loco cause i know I’ll be disappointed or I’ll have to take a part time job just to take my order. Management isn’t doing their job.

The employees are the best part about this business. They are very friendly. Very good about giving you the chicken cuts that you ask for.

I couldnt write a review without giving a star. So sorry for the low star rating. I have never even been here, I was just looking online for a clean Polo Loco and surprisingly the very first review said that it is clean here. I looked for more reviews that mentioned “clean” but I didn’t see any as if cleanliness is not important to many people. O well we will see! Stay clean people

Have been here twice and both times they have messed up our order. Ordered this evening and they forgot a chicken thigh we ordered, gave us a bowl we didn’t order, and the churros we got are rock hard. I don’t know if we’ve just happen to come during off times but I don’t think we’ll be back
