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 Hawthorne,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. Based on 979 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 3.9 stars. Price $

El Pollo Loco has become one of my go-to spots for a satisfying and flavorful Mexican-inspired meal. Their dedication to delivering authentic cuisine and their commitment to quality have consistently impressed me. While there are a few areas that could use improvement, overall, El Pollo Loco provides a delightful dining experience.

The food was good as always, i usually go by the drive thru but today I had time to eat here for lunch. The place was very dirty. Most of the tables were empty but they were dirty and the floor the same way, if this is how it is where people can see just imagine inside at the kitchen.

The food is good. 2 stars because I pulled up to the drive through at 10:30 pm and they told me they were closed despite google saying that they stayed open until 11 pm. Bad customer service and something should be done about this issue. Unhappy customer.

I love pollo loco but when the people who work there don’t like there jobs this what you get. Broken tostadas, no dressing, no utensils, nor chips for your pozole! Mmmm hello my meals were not chip or free. One of those tostadas was for my boss

My family and I ordered to go, and they forgot a part of our order. My sister drove back, and once she came back to eat, she found a hair in her burrito. I had to go back again, and informed them but they didn’t seem to care. They didn’t even look in the burrito when I was showing them. There was clearly a red, long hair, the same as the woman in the front giving orders. They didn’t honor what I asked for, so I got another meal in place for the burrito. They also told my sister they didn’t have creamy cilantro sauce when she first ordered, but I received it with the tostada I got. Not sure why they would lie to customers. They all definitely took the whole situation lightly. A hair and two trips back to the restaurant

Just be bad , and go to popeyes next door ! . Lol. The drive thru line was soooo long and slow omg. I’m surprised I waited that long , I havent ate here in so long so I was randomly craving it. But it did not hit the spot. They were slow, skimpy on the food , I barely had a tablespoon of rice and beans , 3 sprinkles of cheese., I took of the big glob of sour cream, it didn’t have any flavor. And it was $10 ! Smh.

Went in an bought a burrito and chips, the chips were like paper so I simply asked if could have another bag very politely. The young lady was very rude and said” thats all we have , they are all the same ” . She threw them on the counter and walked away. She spoke with the manager in spanish. The manager provided another bag that was much better. Customer service stinks

Ordered a chicken tostada bowl and I found a hair. This isn’t the first time. Don’t order their tostada bowls.
