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 Santa Rosa,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 985 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.0 stars. Price $

Ok I LOVE the foid here BUT I got the keto chicken avocado salad, the salad. It looked nothing like the photo. The chicken DRY as a bone, the avocado browning and in a clump. Very disappointed. They also placed the salad in the same bag as hot chicken so, ofcourse the lettuce was wilted by time we got home. The fire grilled 8 piece was delicious.

I’d give a zero star if I could. We were charged $5.01 for s simple bean and rice burrito, and when we received it the thing was smaller than anything you’d receive for a $1 at tacobell. Needless to say we asked for a refund and went to tacobell where we can actually get enough food thats at least $5 and be full

I generally enjoy El Pollo Loco, but was disappointed in this store. Counter staff not helpful, and other staff just standing around when condiment station needed refilling. Our dinner took a very long time to come. The music was overpowering too. On the up side, there was outdoor seating, and they seemed to have plenty of parking. Would not go back, there are too many other options out there.
