good Service Telma exlente food great job buen ambiente buena comida Gracias por hacer buen equipo read more

Great food, bad parking lot. They do have a drive thru so thats cool. It's definitely on a busy street so it is hard to get out at times. The food is really good, especially with the coupons that are sent in the mail. Big fan of the salsa bar and their freestyle machine. Seating is pretty decent inside, and food comes out a little slowly but not at a snails pace. Nothing beats the grilled chicken here. It's so GOOD read more

I'm a regular customer at El Pollo Loco! I almost go once a week to get their Double Chicken Tostada Salad...phenomenal!! It's my absolute favorite. And their burritos are great, too. And when I want to splurge, I treat myself to their delicious churros ;- ) Their service is prompt and polite. Their drive-thru moves quickly and the staff is always pleasant and efficient. read more

Very good service and the best chicken I've ever had. I really love everything from the manager to the cooks, the churros and the guac.

Felicidades a este lugar porque seguir a siendo buen trabajo siempre con muy buena calidad y servicio excelente

We DoorDashed dinner tonight and I found (what I thought was lettuce at first) this huge piece of wax paper with leftover avocado smashed inside!!!! Disappointing as I always order this salad and have never had an issue. I wouldn't have made a comment had it been something little, but this in all aspects is unacceptable! read more

Received a 10 piece chicken dinner every single piece was so completely dried out the entire order was thrown out apparently you can't keep chicken on the burner for 12 hours during the day and expected to be good when served. It was A Sunday so I'm guessing the managers are off and there's zero quality control either that or people just don't care what they're serving read more

Honestly this review is for Doña Carmen. I came here for my weekly Pollo Loco run (2 piece combo with the mashed potatoes and corn tortillas is the lick) and Doña Carmen was the sweetest! Thanks for taking our order!! read more

Standard El Pollo Loco. What really made it nice was Connie who greeted us and was very friendly and warm. She made sure our order was perfect! read more

This place (store #3481) could use some customer service training in a hurry. we come to this spot 1-2x every other week. and every time the service is extremely poor. Simona T (as per my receipt) or the lady at the drive thru window at lunch time on weekdays appears to be a not a people person. very rude. and not friendly at all. no greeting. zero eye contact. no thank you. she's gives you the give me your money. here's your food. don't come back attitude/vibe. instead of being happy and grateful for having a job during these tough times. on the positive note. the food is great. super tasty and always fresh. i'm hoping this review can help all patrons decide where to spend their hard earned money. read more

I used to love el pollo loco plus it's close to work.. but after today.. I'll never go back! I got the $5 combo with three chicken taquitos and they are still cold and the tortillas raw! They didn't cook them long enough.. I'm grossed out I hope I don't get sick read more

El Pollo Loco - Raw taquitos/messy plate! - Mexican Near Me - Concord, California

It's El Pollo Loco. It is what it is. That said, this location has gotten my order correct every single time, and the crew is nearly always as nice as can be while working their asses off. read more

El Pollo Loco is a great choice for healthy great tasting chicken. Their chicken is Keto friendly, low carb but really moist with great flavor. For this visit, I walked in and ordered takeout. If you only want chicken you can order 8 piece legs and thighs or an 8 piece that includes all standard pieces you would get from CS with their bucket of F*c# only EPL's chicken is worth eating and you won't need to take baby aspirin afterwards in fear of a heart attack. El Pollo Loco has a salsa bar that allows you to stock up on the good stuff. We love their green avocado salsa and yes it goes well with the chicken. EPL is clean, service is good and prices are very fair. El Pollo Loco deserves 4 stars. Yay! I'm a fan. read more

I been to a lot of pollo locos and this one is the favorite ! Always clean and hardly never mess up my order but they gladly remake your meal. Carmen and Julianna are great ! Food is 10/10 employees are 10/10 thank you for your friendly service! read more

It's unfortunate that this location has so many issues. We've tried on several an occasion to order thru Door Dash and the same error of "This store is currently having issues accepting orders at this time. Please select another store or try again later" is still not fixed or been looked at. We love El Pollo Loco but the location seem to either have issues with customer service when you go thru the drive thru and now you can't even order thru Door Dash. Poor way to do business. read more

Me, my friend and her father went through the drive thru and this was my first time. I got the shredded cheese and chicken quesadilla, my friend got the BRC burrito, and my friend's father got the avocado chicken bowl. When we got back to my friend's house we realized that my quesadillas were in a paper bag which we found weird, and it was really soggy. The rice is good but my friend said the rice in the little bowl tasted different than in her burrito. My friend's mom who had a chicken bowl said it tasted fine like 3 out of 5, or 5 out of 10. With the quesadillas I ended up giving them to my friend's mom cause they had stuff in them that I was allergic to. I wish the drive thru window showed exactly what was in it or at least the main ingredients because I thought it had only shredded cheese and chicken but it also had onions and peppers etc. My friend's mom said they were mediocre too anyway. I ended up eating just the rice and something else that was in the house. The person at the drive thru was pretty nice overall, the only thing my friend said was that they kinda really pushed the chips and guacamole, asking if we wanted some twice at the window. Other than that the experience was ok or fine at best. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon or at all. read more

I have never stepped foot inside an EPL before last week. I don't know how that has happened, but I'm so glad I walked into this location close to home and ordered myself a crunchy taco! Husband had one too ($2 each). We also each ordered chips after seeing the awesome salsa bar. Spicy green salsa and a hot red salsa were both fresh and delicious. The taco was also really good - and the place was clean and service was beyond friendly. An employee came up to us offering a tray of jalapeno hot sauce packets, salt, mints, etc! So awesome. Another one diligently cleaned a nearby table (and used a cleaning spray that wasn't at all offensive as we ate our food - no crazy chemical smells - just delicious taco aroma). I'll definitely be back in here. Next time I'll probably substitute avocado for the chicken in my taco, which is their option to make it a vegetarian taco. (They also serve dairy/meat-free tacos on request for vegans). read more

El Pollo Loco - $2 taco - Mexican Near Me - Concord, California

Avoid this place! Bad customer service! I like El pollo loco but this specific location their food and salsas are nasty! Serves unfresh salad and avocado! The person that cleans goes right to handling food after mopping and doesn't even wash his hands! read more

Surprised to see a foster's freeze unit in here.. pricing for cones: child(1.19), small(1.59), lg (1.89), they also make shakes, sundaes, and twists with the softie mix. the softie wasn't so sweet, banana coloured and not snowy white as i knew it in the past, not even soft serve like. maybe that's the flavor el pollo's patron like or foster has changed their formula. (or my memory is bad). curiosity satisfied here. taco chips: -el pollo has a $1 menu worth looking at (taco, salad,.cheese quesedillia, churros (2). -fill out survey on receipt via internet or phone, get $1 off next purchase. -lots of seating in here, lots of parking outside. -fast latina service. read more

exelente servicio y calidad de comida me canta este lugar porque siempre está limpio para comer en familia

I don't often get to visit El Pollo Locos as they are few and far between in my area, but out of the two locations near me, being the Pittsburg and Concord locations, have to say that this one is my preference. And here is my review to tell you why.... As compared to the the Pittsburg location, the customer service and the attention to cleanliness and detail is always on point. You always see an associate cleaning and wiping down the tables and counters and makimg sure the salsa bar is full. Although when ordering food sometimes there is certainly a language barrier, but I don't hold it against anyone. But the main topic about this review is the food and now I will speak on that. I like the chicken at El Pollo Loco a lot. Its nice to have a place where you can get chicken this flavorful and its not coated in a blend of "12 herbs" and spices and or double battered to be extra crispy. Nothing wrong with the compitition, but the latin marinated style of chicken here at El Pollo Loco brings a new flair and new taste that most chicken eaters aren't use too. Citrus in their marinade and the flame grill process here which they seem to have down to a "T" and is quite refreshing just makes eating here a delight. Their cooking process keeps the chicken juicy which I like and feel they have an edge when I think about the pittsburg location when it comes which tends to dry out their chicken. In conclusion, If you like chicken and don't want to just stick to the normal "chicken joint" chicken then come to El Pollo Loco, especially this location. If you like it, Yelp about it! read more

El Pollo Loco - Double Chicken Mango Tostada Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Concord, California

Came for dinner tonight with my husband and two small boys. Restaurant was clean and spacious. Ordering was a bit difficult due to a language barrier, but friendly and polite. The pollo bowls that we ordered off of the kids menu were really wet. Liquid was dripping from the fork. Despite the wetness they were kid approved. My husband ordered chicken with coleslaw. The avocado was old and his salsa was super runny. I ordered the tostada chicken bowl with creamy cilantro which was super yummy. Towards the end of the meal our baby spilled an entire drink on the table. My husband asked for towel three times. Either they didn't understand due to a language barrier or they didn't care. We've had better experiences at this store, but will give it a three today. read more

El Pollo Loco - The crazy chicken house! - Mexican Near Me - Concord, California

I enjoy certain things from this restaurant, like the cilantro dressing, but every time i come to this particular one, i have trouble. They mess up the order almost every time, forget things, and a lot of the employees are rude. This time, my mother ordered a mexican cobb salad, they had everything in it but the salad part, there was no lettuce. This will be the last time i give this location a chance. read more

This place has always served me good food. The place is clean and the food is prepared fairly fast. Salsa bar is always full when I go and not always crowded which is a good thing Highly recommended you try their chicken! Been here couple of times! read more

You can't go wrong with El Pollo loco. Despite being a chain the food is fresh and affordable. Their dollar menu offers tacos, burritos and other ACTUAL food items that you wouldn't mind consuming (in contrast to other fast food dollar menus). The chicken here is phenomenal. It's juicy and since it's not fried I fee it's a bit healthier. Always a good value. read more

lo que me gusta siempre es la tostada y el servicio es excelente y me la hacen como yo lo ordeno por eso me gusta la calidad y el servicios

I have placed a couple of orders here through Drive-thru (due to COVID-19), most recently last night. The lady that works the drive-thru window is really nice. I purchased the 8 piece meal for the family. I've always liked their chicken here along with the side dishes options such as mac and cheese, spanish rice, etc. This location seems to be clean and the staff don't have an attitude while serving you. I recommend this spot if you like the Crazy Chicken read more

What a shame that el pollo loco Concord charges their customers 89 cents to use the bathroom. I just spent 45.00 on food and they want another 89 cents to use the bathroom. I think you need to rethink your bathroom policy. Not a happy customer who purchased 44.98 on receipt number 782 at 12.22p on Oct 1. read more

I went again like an idiot. The guy taking orders in the drive through sounded so monotone and unwelcoming. To top it off I was missing an order as well. I didn't notice until I was already home. Can these guys get anything right????? read more

This location is always quick *(drive thru) fresh & delicious. Plus the staff are friendly & professional. Thanks/Mucha Gracias! =)

Awful experience. Kevin M took my order and must have smoked too much before work. Didn't provide any salsa and I ordered 3 tacos and this guy only gave me one. It's fast food place, I get it. But at least get peoples orders correctly. read more

Always loved their chicken combo platters! Been coming to this location for years. Theres always parking in the parking lot. It never seems crazy crowded in this location. With the combo platter, it comes with two tortillas and two sides. Drinks come separately. They have a salsa bar you can chose from. read more

This is the filthiest El Pollo Loco. Poor hygiene Really dirty and I am surprised the health department did not shut this place down. I visited this location on a Monday at 8pm. Really feel sorry that I went to this place. read more

This is the family's first time here and I was great. We got the taquitos, Chile lime tostada was on point! Fajita burrito was good but I didn't like the sour cream I forget to get it taken off. Other than that the buddy was slamma jamma good! Location is fine regular expected service speed. read more

We ordered our dinner and they overcharged us by saying you didn't cancel it with an attitude. We canceled one item. At the same time the drive thru lady is rushing us. I can't believe they couldn't apologize and give us a refund for one of the items. Now we have more food than needed. So sad customer service has declined. read more

I love El Pollo Loco! But with their salsa bar sometimes it gets nasty looking, it gets messy and empty sometimes. I get El Pollo Loco chicken everytime I get home late to cook dinner. read more

Great delicious food served fresh and large portions. Coupons are always a plus saving up to $20 on our dinner.

Love this restaurant. Very nice staff read more

Today I had the best grilled chicken here at El Pollo Loco! I returned after years because the chicken was way too dry before. But now Julianna said they have a new griller for the chicken and wow what a difference! Delicious and grilled chicken is much healthier than fried!!! And their coupons are great too! read more
