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 Lancaster,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.

This location serves the best food. I walked in to EPL and ordered a double tostada. Not only was the service quick and easy but it was also done correctly. The place is clean. The food tasted delicious. I highly recommend this location as well as the food.

stopped by the El Pollo Loco in Lancaster, CA for a quick meal, and my experience was pretty average. The staff was friendly enough, and my order came out in a reasonable amount of time, but the food just wasn’t as fresh as I’m used to from other locations.
The chicken had good flavor, but it was a bit dry, and a couple of the sides tasted like they had been sitting out for a while. The restaurant itself was mostly clean, though a few tables needed wiping down. Nothing terrible, but nothing impressive either.
Overall, it wasn’t a bad visit—just not great. I’d go back if I’m in the area and need something quick, but I wouldn’t go out of my way for this location.

Food quality was not that great. Hardly any flavor. Had a street corn burrito bowl and the chicken was pretty bad. Tasted like it was 9 hrs old and had the texture of it also, dried and shriveled. If I hadn’t gone through the drive through I would have returned it. I’ll never eat this brand again. Made me feel nasty Do not recommend

Edit from Review of 7 months ago: Got a coupon in the mail to try their new stuffed quesadillas so we thought we’d try them again. I ordered 1 shredded beef stuffed quesadilla & 1 chicken & avocado stuffed quesadilla. Get home quite a bit later (4 cars in front of me but I was gone for over 30 minutes and I live about 3 minutes away!) and cut them in half as my husband wanted half of each. ZERO avocado in the “chicken & avocado” quesadilla – and the wrapper even had an avocado sticker on it!! I immediately called but nobody would answer the phone!
1) When it takes a long time in line 2) When the employees obviously want to be elsewhere 3) When you don’t get what you ordered / what was advertised 4) When they don’t bother answering the phone … it’s time to give up trying! Pictures attached of an avocado sticker but none in the food!
Been recovering from surgery for the last couple weeks & didn’t feel like cooking. Grabbed 2 new coupons & got to the drive-thru just before 10:00. I didn’t realize I could only use 1 coupon! So for 2 salads & 2 quesadillas, my total was OVER $30 (that’s WITH a coupon – it would’ve been over $40 otherwise!) for 2 people!! When I got home, I emptied the bag so I could go over my receipt … but there wasn’t one! So not only was the cashier exasperated that I asked how much something was, he didn’t bother giving me a receipt.

Great customer service, Mackenzie deserves a raise. He went over and beyond to assist our family.

I ordered an 8-pc meal with two large sides. Chicken was burned, dry, more bone than chicken, and just didn’t taste like the El Pollo chicken I’ve grown to love. Fries were soggy and tasteless and if this large order was meant to feed four, each person would get seven fries.

I asked for Loaded Chicken Nachos with no guacamole, Pico De Gallo, and Sour Cream. They put guacamole on it. I mentioned it, because I am allergic to avocados. Instead of making a new one, they just removed the guacamole, but not all of it. Needless to say, I didn’t eat them. And I really wanted to try them…

Food is good if you catch them on a good day. I recommend the pollo fit bowls.

The posted closing time is 10:30 PM, but when I arrived at 10:20 PM, the restaurant was already closed. This is misleading and inconvenient for customers who rely on the listed hours. If the location closes earlier, the hours should be updated accordingly.
