    Their fresh salsa is what got me to love them. It taste good with their grilled chicken, considering the coupon price. Juiciness of chicken varies by location. This one is just a tad dry but still okay. Staff were very friendly. Giving 4 stars for taste and value. Use your coupons!

    I like this El Pollo Loco location. Food came out quick and was tasty. Very clean dining room and bathrooms. Service was fine. Great choice when you are passing through Bishop after the local places are closed.

    Salsa Verde chicken quesadillas
    Mr C.

    In Bishop late at night and Pollo Loco was basically the only place still open--lifesaver! Staff were attentive and friendly. The food came out fast and everything was way better than I expected for a late-night stop. The tostada salad was fresh and crisp and filling, the tacos al carbon had that perfect flavor, and the salsa verde chicken quesadillas were cheesy goodness with just the right kick. Almost forgot to mention the chicken avocado burrito--but trust me, it's anything but forgettable. Huge, fresh, and packed with flavor. The avocado made it creamy perfection, and it's the kind of burrito you think about long after it's gone. Obviously it wasn't all for me "wink wink" but we had it family style so I tried everything. Wrapped it all up with warm, sugary churros--honestly the best ending to a long day.

    Avocado Salad

    Taking a road trip and needed a break and some sustenance before continuing the long drive to southern California. We pulled planning to go to the little cafe in the same shopping area, but it was closed so decided to go fast food. I am not a fan of fast food, but I figured they would have something marginally healthy. I was not wrong in my guess. I ordered the chicken avocado salad with creamy cilantro dressing. Not bad at all. The lettuce was fresh and crisp with sliced avocado and a generous helping of chicken. The chicken was a little dry, but otherwise tasty. The staff were polite and the food came out quickly. They were pretty busy so the dining area was almost full. The table was not clean, but was tolerable after a brush off with a napkin. So overall it was good. Up to expectations for fast food.

    This was my first time ever at an El Pollo Loco and I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. We got a $11.79 Double Pollo Fit Bowl, $9.49 Chicken avocado quesadilla, $5 Original Pollo Bowl, and $9.89 Shredded Chicken Nacho. I like that they only have chicken. It stays consistent with their branding. All the chicken can be seen being cooked on a massive grill just past the counter. It looked fresh. The chicken was tasty and well seasoned. The salsas that came with our meal were all rather bland. The green one was like a citrus cilantro green sauce that leaned towards being refreshing. The red one was more of a spicy salsa and the pico de gallo was just must tomatoes. All of them lacked flavor. They all could've used more salt to bring out whatever flavors were blended into each sauce. The chicken avocado quesadilla was the most flavorful but wasn't worth its price. It was about the same portion as the much cheaper original pollo bowl. The pollo bowl looks small but I'd say it was the perfect portion and I like to eat until I'm full. I was left satisfied once I had finished it. It came with beans, pico de gallo, onions, chopped cilantro, seasoned rice, and chicken. The flavors came together very well. Although, if you are not a fan of beans, you might not like how this bowl is constructed. It's built with a layer of rice then a layer of beans and then the four even sections of veggies and chicken. The beans are hard to avoid with each bite. The restroom was clean. There was soap and warm water, nothing inferior about it. I didn't get a drink but I thought it was cool that the dispenser had two nozzles that each had three different options on each nozzle. It was interesting. I'd never seen something like that before. There's a $5 for 2 tacos deal on Tuesdays that the cashier pointed out to us when we were thinking of ordering tacos. The service was good enough, nothing rude or too good. There was plenty of seating with clean tables. If I could give a 4.5 stars, I would've for this location.

    We stopped her on our road trip. Service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was clean as well as the bathrooms. They have kids meals! Hubby got a burrito, I got the two piece chicken meal. We all loved our food. We will definitely stop by again.

    Double Chicken Salad
    Mary N.

    Purchased a Double chicken salad at 8:15pm last night and it was the worst chicken salad I have ever had. The avocado was brown, the chicken was as tough as jerky and really salty and the lettuce was warm and wilted and not just where the chicken was sitting. I think it had been made several hours before it was sold to me. I would have gone back had it not been so late. To add insult to my visit, after getting my order I drove through the drive through and hit an unavoidable, gigantic pot hole in the El Polllo Loco driveway that almost blew out my tire. All around bad experience.

    My first time here and I was extremely satisfied. I don't eat chicken, so I got the carnitas instead on the $5 pollo bowl and the salad. Everything was so delicious and fresh. The service was quick and the staff was very accommodating to my dietary restriction! Highly recommend.

    Food is fresh and delicious! Service was super fast and friendly. It's your typical fast food seating and dinning room.

    Chicken was good and tasty. Music was loud and in Spanish. Why? Very ghetto! Don't get it.

    Hello, my first time in since I was staying in Bishop for the night, so I stopped by for dinner…read moreand ordered the salad and the shredded beef street tacos! Very good and the right amount of food! The chips were good except for the salsa it needed a little bit more zip for me, but that is okay! This place has character and would be a great place to have a lot of friends and family to hang out with for dinner! Plus, it was nice and enjoyable for a Wednesday night and the waitress was kind and had my food out to me as soon as I ordered! So all is good so next time I'm driving through Bishop I'll stop for some really good street tacos!! Thank you! Julie

    Ok, so first, If I could afford it I would eat here every week. The molcajetes are incredible! The…read morepresentation is outstanding! The price is high, but it is a specialty food. For a birthday party we ordered 3 for 7 people and ate every bit! But today, we tried the Tuesday street taco lunch specials, a non-menu item. $2 each for carne asada, shredded beef, chicken and chorizo. $3 each for shrimp and fish. We decided to get 2 of each to share between 4 people. They were amazing! Our total bill before tip was $45 which included a coke and two iced teas. The service is always great! They also serve great Margaritas, but we're not drinking st lunch. Please give this place a try if you are looking for a culinary experience!
