    My husband and I eating at our favorite place

    Eating at our favorite CRAZY CHICKEN PLACE! Love this yummy grilled chicken and spending time with my family. We love eating out after church and this is one of our places to eat.

    Double avocado chicken  salad

    Seriously upsetting. This is not the first time I've been served hard as a rock chicken that is clearly over cooked .. the entire chicken was hard.i hopped the last time was a fluke but nope. Stay away. Waste of $17. What a joke.

    This shows how many times I called the store

    I'm very disappointed, last time the driver dropped off food from La Madeline not from El Pollo Loco; that wasn't their fault. I called that time and went to pick up my order instead of having it delivered, the manager was super nice and replaced the order but that was the first encounter with El Pollo Loco. This one was the worst ever: I ordered from the website last night at 11:17 pm. Figuring I would get ahead of myself, I saw nothing updated at 3. I called to make sure they got the order and who I spoke with told me that they would write everything down, and to match it with the order that pulled up later. I called the store at 6:00pm to make sure that they had the order ready to go by 7:00 pm. The same person answered the phone and I asked did the order go through?! They said hello ?! Hello?! Then hung up.. I called 10 times afterward, making the grand total 11, each call ways being disconnected or going to voicemail. I called left voicemails no one bothered to call me back!! I did cancel the order and I'm hoping that the refund shows up as this will be going to corporate! This should not have been difficult!

    4 pc dark chicken meal, broccoli, pinto beans
    Hannah N.

    Stuck at work one afternoon, I had an undeniable craving for grilled chicken. I looked up UberEats and opted for El Pollo Loco after seeing that my favorite chicken joint was not on there. I've been to this location once before and thought the food was just ok but cravings so I decided to give it another go. I ordered the four piece dark chicken meal. I was happy to see that broccoli was an option as a side. I wished more veggies were offered at my go-to place. The food order arrived correctly but I was really disappointed in the quality. The broccoli was half brown and half green in color. The chicken, though dark pieces, were dry and bland. It definitely did not have the flavor punch that grilled chicken should have. The avocado green sauce could not even save it. I did also get churros for a couple of my staff which they enjoyed. This second experience just confirms that I am not a fan of El Pollo Loco, at least not this location. Highly recommend my favorite chicken joint just one exit south of here instead. Their grilled chicken is moist, fresh, flavorful and I put their green sauce on everything!

    Chicken was a bit lackluster and another thing I had a paper clip in my tacos, further more the Mac & Cheese is highly saturated in fat.

What is not to love? As we're celebrating our 55th anniversary this month we were presented with a lovely, complementary sparkly rose. As today is Cinco de Mayo a Margarita was in order and the house pour was lovely. We shared a bottle of California Sauvignon Blanc to accompany the Ceviche Tatemado followed by the Tacos de Barbacoa which is the Tuesday lunch special. Both the ceviche and barbacoa tacos were just so enjoyable. The striped bass and octopus ceviche here is a unique preparation that sings in the tangy lime and Serrano vinaigrette in which it is prepared. The barbacoa is so flavorful and tender; and the thin, house made flour tortilla is fried crispy on the flat top before being filled. So good.

Servers provided a great experience aside from a bunch of flies (ate outside on the patio and were waving at flys most of the night). Three stars for the prices. We are an entirely vegetarian meal with no alcohol and paid $400 for a party of six...and we were sharing (yes, you read that correctly). $13 for a side of Mexican rice. $18 for essentially a side mashed potatoes. $16 for grilled vegetables. And the portions were SMALL. We were sharing across four adults and three kids and everyone only ended up getting a tiny amount. It was really difficult believing we were receiving any real value...it felt like the Don and figured out how to have unsuspecting guests pay double! It to say this isn't a legit high-end Mexican restaurant, it is. But I would more realistically describe it as a high-end steak house with wrap-around Mexican dishes (which explains why the side prices were so extreme). Kids quesadillas with steak were $17 a piece with no sides other than potato chips (a little odd given the context). Anyway, I'll end it where I began...food was good, servers were great...but just not worth the price. If the bill had been half or the portions were larger, it would have felt like we were actually getting value for our money.

I ordered take out and sat at the bar while I waited for my entree.Ordered two drinks while I waited, got the one at the top of the menu and a skinny margarita and they tasted exactly the same ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ they got the job done and were fine. Food: I got the enchiladas three ways with steak. You can take the regular three sauces or choose just one if you'd like. Green sauce is the best, white sauce is pretty good, and the red mole is fine but I wish I would have swapped it out with the spicy almost (orange) sauce that comes with the seafood enchiladas. That sauce looks so good! My partner did not like the red sauce at all, again I thought it was fine just not amazing like the other two. Beans and rice are good, nothing special. Nothing wrong with the chips and salsa just run of the mill. Other thoughts: I wish I had just ate my food at the bar instead of ordering take out. Bar seats are comfortable, views of a tv for anyone sitting at the bar, and it's just a nice comfortable atmosphere in there. The hostess and bar tenders I interacted with provided great service.

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
