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 on W la Palma Avenue in Anaheim. This restaurant takes pride in its traditional methods of cooking and delivering delicious meals to customers.

One thing that sets El Pollo Loco apart from other chicken restaurants is their use of whole chickens that are marinated in a special recipe of herbs, spices, fruit juices, and garlic. The chicken is then expertly fire-grilled on their signature open-flame grills to perfection before being hand-cut into your favorite Mexican entrees. This dedication to quality and care is evident in every dish they serve.

But it's not just the chicken that's worth raving about at El Pollo Loco. Their handmade guacamole, salsas, and dressings are made fresh every day with the same level of dedication and care as their famous fire-grilled chicken. And with over 480 locations across six states, it's clear that customers keep coming back for more.

Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or a family dinner, El Pollo Loco has something for everyone. Their tradition of slow-cooked, fast-served meals ensures that you'll always get great taste without sacrificing quality or freshness. So if you're in Anaheim and craving some delicious Mexican food, head over to El Pollo Loco on W la Palma Avenue for an unforgettable dining experience.
