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 Duaroute Road in Arcadia. This restaurant takes pride in their famous fire-grilled chicken, which is cooked slow and served fast, always cut-to-order.
What sets El Pollo Loco apart from other Mexican restaurants is their dedication to using 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. This attention to detail results in juicy and flavorful chicken that will keep you coming back for more.
But it's not just about the chicken at El Pollo Loco. They also put the same dedication and care into their handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day. These delicious accompaniments perfectly complement the main dishes and add an extra layer of flavor to your meal.
Founded in 1980, El Pollo Loco has grown into more than 480 restaurants across 6 states--becoming an L.A. mainstay and cultural benchmark along the way. And with good reason - they consistently deliver fresh and innovative L.A. Mex cuisine that satisfies even the most discerning palates.
