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 Sparks,NV, 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. Based on 951 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.1 stars. Price $

The service was great, but the food.. nada. I usually order the Double Chicken Avocado salad (two of them) and I’ve never had a bad salad. Today’s salad looked amazing, however, the chicken on the salad looks different (looks overly seasoned) and is so salty I cannot eat it. That means i’ll not be eating the second salad i bought for tomorrow either and am out $20.00. I also noticed a couple new but similar salads on the menu that come with some kind of chile seasoning – i wonder if that’s what I actually got. If so, it’s terrible.

They seemed pretty rushed. But got home with 2 tostada chicken salads. Lettuce had few bad areas and for double chicken????? Not really much. Son loves the dressing. They gave me 6 lol.

Ordered Birria tacos with a drink $11 +. There was no meat only beans and terrible rice. The sauce did not taste like birria either.

We ordered a 16 piece meal and the chicken was phenomenal! Everything was delicious, came warm and fresh, and delivery driver was courteous and professional. Would highly recommend the food here. The cilantro salad dressing was delicious! They even delivered 15 minutes sooner than promised when I placed the order on-line.

I really liked going to this El Pollo Loco before. The food is good and the service is friendly. When the manager is there it’s great. They really need to work on their online ordering though. I went the other day to pick up my online order and there was a big line. I walked up to the counter and tried to get someone’s attention but 3 different employees ignored me. I get that they are busy but if someone orders online they shouldn’t have to wait until everyone in line orders and half of them get their food before getting theirs. It was cold by the time I actually got my food. I could have walked in and ordered or went through the drive thru and got my food quicker and hotter than I did ordering online.

I’ve never been inside this restaurant but the drive thru seems to function quite nicely. Even though there’s a line wrapped around the building it goes fairly quickly. Food is great and pretty good price too.

Pollo Loco is always a “to-go-to” spot for my family and I! And especially me! I love Pollo Loco. Their Chicken Tostada Bowls is always the classic choice when trying to stay lean and eat healthy.

The classic tostada and pollo bowl are my favorite. I wasn’t feeling good recovering from a surgery and Rosie took our order and suggested the tortilla soup which was hearty and amazing. Thanks Rosie, love Pollo Loco

Absolutely disgusting inside. Ordered online and waited for several minutes at the counter, was ignored but when someone else walked up to pick up an order they were immediately helped. What a nasty piece of trash. Won’t be coming back if this is the environment inside.
