The result is juicy, flavorful chicken that's hand-cut into your favorite Mexican entrees. But it's not just about the chicken - El Pollo Loco also puts the same care and attention into their handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day.

Since 1980, El Pollo Loco has been a mainstay in Los Angeles and has grown to over 480 restaurants across 6 states. But despite their success, they continue to work hard to provide customers with fresh and innovative L.A. Mex cuisine.
