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 Cypress,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 550 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.0 stars. Price $

Cant even give rating for the food.. they wouldn’t help us.. This place ehas the worst service. No customers in drive through and a couple in the store. 5 people saw us and ignored us the whole time. They can keep their small dry chicken. I jope this location closes soon. This isn’t the first time we got bad service.

Ate inside for a change. Cashier and team were very nice and helpful. Flavor for the chicken avocado burrito just wasn’t there, and not for the keto burrito either, both were further handicapped by the undercooked, powdery tortillas. Chicken tortilla soup was pretty good, although hot. Probably more like 3.5 stars but I just couldn’t get past the lack of taste for the burritos, so no rounding up.

Not happy, from the pictures on the menu, my mom ordered one salad, I ordered the other next to it….double chicken salad(note the picture has it in the shell) second picture is what I ended up with and was told that was what I ordered….some shell less salad with corn???? Not in the picture. For shame on us for not checking the order before we left the window. For shame on them for naming other salads after the pictures on the drive thru menu!

This location of Pollo Loco is very quiet which is nice and they have these really cool meal deals starting at five bucks which includes a drink and a side of chips. overall it was pretty good if you’re really hungry and are in need of something to eat while on a budget
