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 Moorpark, CA. This restaurant takes pride in their delivery of delicious Mexican entrees made 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 on their signature open-flame grills and hand-cut into your favorite dishes.

But it's not just the chicken that sets El Pollo Loco apart from other Mexican restaurants. They also put the same dedication and care into their handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day. And with over 480 locations across 6 states, El Pollo Loco has become a cultural benchmark for L.A. Mex.

One thing that really stands out about El Pollo Loco is their commitment to tradition. Even after nearly four decades in business, they continue to marinate whole chickens the traditional way - slow and steady - resulting in a flavor that keeps customers coming back again and again.

So if you're looking for fresh, authentic Mexican food made with care and tradition, look no further than El Pollo Loco on W Los Angeles Avenue in Moorpark.
