What people say

When it comes to Mexican restaurants, there's nothing quite like the taste of fresh, authentic food. And that's exactly what you'll find at El Pollo Loco in Norco. This restaurant takes pride in their famous fire-grilled chicken, which is slow-cooked and always cut-to-order. The secret to their delicious chicken lies in their special recipe of herbs, spices, fruit juices and garlic that they use to marinate whole chickens before expertly grilling them on open-flame grills.

But El Pollo Loco doesn't stop at just great chicken. They also put the same dedication and care into their handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day. And with a menu full of classic Mexican entrees like tacos, burritos and quesadillas, there's something for everyone.

Founded in 1980 in Los Angeles, El Pollo Loco has grown into more than 480 restaurants across 6 states. But despite this growth, they've never lost sight of their commitment to providing customers with fresh and innovative L.A. Mex.

So if you're looking for a Mexican restaurant that delivers on taste and authenticity, look no further than El Pollo Loco on River Road in Norco.
