El Pollo Loco

El Pollo Loco Famous Fire-Grilled Chicken. Cooked slow. Served fast. And always cut-to-order.

While some things have changed over the last few decades, El Pollo Loco's delivery of fresh, authentic food has not. Everything starts 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 the authentic way - on our signature open-flame grills - then hand cut into your favorite Mexican en

trees. We put that same dedication and care into our handmade guacamole, salsas and dressings every day. At El Pollo Loco in Tempe,AZ, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.

This year marks our 50th anniversary, and we’re taking a moment to reflect on how far we’ve come. From our first U.S. restaurant location on Alvarado Street, our roots run deep in Los Angeles.

Now, more than ever, LA needs us to support one another and build back our community even stronger than before. In response to the fires that have devastated our neighborhoods, El Pollo Loco commits to donate 5,000 meals to first responders and others impacted by the Palisades and Eaton fires, as well as a monetary donation to the Red Cross and other community relief efforts.

We’re proud to call LA home. Then, now, and for the next 50.

Our Tradition

Sometimes the traditional ways are the best. That’s why even after nearly four decades we continue to marinate whole chickens in our family marinade of citrus, garlic and spices several times a day, every day. That’s why our seasoned Grill Masters still grill them low and slow--the traditional way, for 55 minutes over an open flame. That’s why generations of families gather around our Mexican entrees and family dinners year after year. And that’s why our enduring commitment to the principles of hard work, doing things the right way, and always starting with the best ingredients available will never change.
