This location has always did me well. Great service, quality of chicken/salsas/salads have always been great. Ambiance is just your typical fast food restaurant. read more

El Pollo Loco - Store front - Fast Food Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We were going to this place for many, many years . The food is good , great service . Almost too good to be true. Our favorite is the tostada . Lately we notice the size of the tostada got smaller & smaller , lots of space between the shell & casserole & same with the chicken. I am posting the picture of our tostada from Friday . We couldn't believe it ! 4 little cubes of chicken ! It was a joke ! So , we had a lot of rice , beans & lettuce for $12 !!... Somebody should be embarrassed about this ! read more

El Pollo Loco - Our tostada with 4 pieces of chicken ! - Fast Food Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I got a free burrito for signing up for their rewards program. You have to purchase something so I got a churro. Ordered through the app, and it was ready in time. The lady asked if I wanted salsa, so I tried their mild and hot. Burrito is decently sized and okay taste. Nothing amazing but not bad. Churro didn't have sugar or cinnamon on it but it was still sweet. read more

As someone who is familiar with Tex Mex growing up in the south, El Pollo Loco consistently satisfies this craving with their queso true to Tex Mex style and hard to find anywhere else in LA. I always get the Queso Guacamole Burrito which is huge and always delicious. Always wondered why a side of corn is at least $5, but hey, it's good to have a vegetable. No complaints. Great fast food. read more

Pick up an order and when i got home, my order looked like it had been kicked around. All my food was covered in bean juice. The utensils and napkins and my sauce bag was wet. It was DISGUSTING. My bowls looked like i ordered soup. I've ordered these bowls before from another location and yes i always ask for no beans, BUT they are smart enough to drain some of the bean juice so i don't get a soup. It was a MESS and very unacceptable. DO BETTER. read more

We got rid of the cashiers and replaced them with self-serve computers. I prefer talking to a person, but whatever, what bothers me more is is how slow the service was. The place wasn't even busy and it took forever to get my order. I guess they got rid of employees as well. read more

Fantastic for something as advertised as 'fast good' I ordered the combo grilled chicken chipotle burrito with guac which came with a drink and chips. Everything was super fresh. From the slightly heated up chips, to the fresh green and red spicy salsa. And then the burrito. Now using the terminology 'grilled' to advertise the 'grilled burrito' is in the realm of being very liberal and loose. Technically. Kinda. Hand-pressed is a form of grilling something? IDK, it's not the same as a flat top grill though. That involves craft a little bit more effort. So while you get a nice brown mark synth char, it's not a real grill mark whatsoever. But that would honestly be asking too much. It was flavorful regardless. The rice was a little bland, but this is in line with the independent mom'n pop burrito spots that just the same or a bit more. In this particular instance, it would be more since I utilized a 3 dollar off coupon. In 2025, ten bucks for a burrito, chips and a drink is a steal. read more

What a solid location! Parking is easy. The portions are better and bigger. Get the burrito!

They could not get an order right if it was tattooed on their arm. You have to use a kiosk, but they're getting paid $22 an hour and still they don't get the orders right. I used to like the food there, but this time, the chicken was burnt and almost choked on it, and this was in a tostada. No taste!! I do not like the service. There are a couple of people who are very helpful but not enough. Whoever the cooks are whoever's preparing the meals try reading the orders. read more

This EPL was not the best, but are any of them really? It was lunch time and I had to go to the RR. There was a line outside the door parallel to the counter and the soda fountain. There were 2 bathrooms. What I thought was extremely rude was that despite seeing customers outside waiting in line, one employee with a key entered one of the empty bathrooms. We were not aware that one of the stalls were empty, so it was very off putting that they did that without consideration. I don't normally go inside EPL establishments, I typically order via drive-thru, but this was not an option. I wasn't aware that customers now have to order their own meals via kiosk. While technology is more advanced now, there are drawbacks to this. It creates a longer wait time. Some customers are not as tech savvy, they may require more help than others, therefore it is not as efficient. read more

This restaurant is so unprofessional, I asked the employee "Lissette" for a coupon page and she gave me the the worst death stare and whispered to her coworker ( a man) something about me and he smirked back at her making me feel very embarrassed and uncomfortable and judged about it since a couple of other customer saw the situation. I go there almost every day and it's very dissatisfying knowing you are being intimidated as if they are being charged for giving a coupon paper. Pollo loco hire better people or RETRAIN their customer service skills. read more

Service - can only order digitally. No humans available. Food - ordered the tostada salad with chicken. The chicken tasted weird. The chicken was chewy and almost unchewable on the part that presumably had been on a grill. The salad greens were limited at best. Will only order chicken on the bone from here in the future. read more

Location : Sepulveda & National I ordered my meal on there kiosks as that's how they do it now . There was no option to take off the cheese ( kids meal my daughter doesn't like their cheese ) . I paid at the kiosk and told the gentlemen in the front he said he'd let the cooks know . That's when Liz yelled no it's done we already did it . Keep in mind I had just placed the order and in fact they had not made it . The gentlemen let me know but I heard her yelling it to him (she was speaking in Spanish and I speak Spanish ) . I explained he said he would fix it I believe his name was hector . He left to the restroom and Liz started talking bad about me and then the gentleman for fixing it. When the order came out (about 15 min later ) she told another cook (Felix) to hand me my order because she wasn't doing that. Someone has to talk to her about talking bad about her co workers and customers . You never know who you can be helping and it's just left a sour taste in my mouth . Hopefully she learns how to deal with customers . Ambiance besides that was good . read more

Food is always hot and savory. The staff works hard and are very professional. I love El Pollo Loco. read more

Had to beg the manager for more guacamole. I use it for salad rather than the dressing. So crabby like I was taking his last dollar. And No tortillas!!! I'd go back but it is a couple miles from me. Ugg. read more

I was so disappointed with my order today! Their portions are considerably smaller, the quality lower and the price higher! Not going back!

Update - Amazing, I was asked (in a message here) to get in touch with El Pollo Loco, because they wanted to "make it right". I took the time to write them, again, and heard absolutely nothing from them. It again, illustrates their lack of consideration or care about their customers. Great food, but this was the final thing that made me leave as a customer. The worst customer service in the world. I was overcharged and the corporate office didn't care. Then I made the mistake of ordering a gift card because they had a bonus card. Never received it. Wrote to them asking about it. They said they would get back to me within 24 - 48 hours. Never heard back from them. Love their food, but as a company, they are the worst, in customer service, and they don't even care. read more

Definitely a quick go to spot for fresh flame grilled chicken and sides to go with the main course. I usually come here after work for dinner or if I feel like hosting a party, they have great party platters and burritos. The dining area is clean and spacious. The staff are always welcoming and helpful. I definitely recommend coming to the crazy chicken. read more

I walked in and was greeted. The lady was very helpful and assisted me with my order as I experienced an issue ordering my food at the kiosk. After ordering though, that's when things took a turn for the worse. I ordered a burrito and the family meal. After a few minutes, an employee walked over and told me they were out of beans and wanted me to substitute it. If it would have been closer to closing, I would've understood; however, I really wanted beans with my burrito. I kindly asked if they could prepare some and that I wouldn't mind waiting. The employee got annoyed and went to prepare more beans leaving the remainder of my order uncovered on the counter. 15 minutes later, my food was still uncovered and on the counter. I noticed the employees handling the food were not wearing gloves and were touching receipts/money. I kindly asked the employee to prepare the rest of my order as the one they had prepared initially had been sitting out uncovered. The employee proceeded to put my food in the microwave. At that point, I immediately decided to request a refund. read more

Que decepcion, en las ultimate dos ocasiones compre varies cosas y en el combo de dos piezas (pechuga y ala $mas de $15.00 dlls rate plato)), es una groseria lo que seven, el pollo seco, frio, y parece.

Probably one of the only good El Pollo Locos left that i have been to. Stopped here not long ago to grab something to eat. We had gotten their 10 piece meal with rice and beans, tortillias, and the bunch. We ate their inside the place, and it was wonderful. Nothing was overcooked or dried out. They had fresh chicken ready to be eaten. We were happy campers. read more

This particular outlet is either hot or miss, tonight was a miss. Chicken was dried out, the salsa tasted like it had been sitting there for a while, ditto for the tortillas. Sometimes this place is good, but tonight it certainly was not. read more

I boycotted all Pollo Locos for 10 years because every location had awful customer service. But this location brought me back. The staff is amazing, given the heavy traffic. I can't say enough good things about them. Go to's: tacos Al carbon, which are underrated; tostada bowls, which speak for themselves. read more

They have an automated cashier. You need to do all the work to put in your order. They don't have actual cashier, so you pay the same for the food but now have to be your own cashier. I don't like this at all. read more

Found this is my burrito. Not sure what this meat is. No way this is chicken. Just hope I don't get sick smh. read more

El Pollo Loco - Idk. Suppose to be chicken. - Fast Food Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Review on tacos. Had a chicken avocado taco which while larger than other places, also pricier. There are no toppings to add and the romaine lettuce used was large enough it could be used for Cesar Salad. The chicken was good but the taco, skip. Better off at Tito's Tacos. Service didn't offer any sauces at first. The ambiance was pretty old but clean. read more

no star given. The automated service ordering is horrible. Will no longer be a patron. Fast food service is a luxury we pay for. It is not a break in my day to stand in line for 25 minutes while we all figure out how to manage this system. That is what employees are for. To figure out the business side of getting my meal and having a moment in the day to sit and eat as a break. I will pay for service. People get paid at their jobs to deal with computers. If you want a business to thrive you need people to work with people. Honestly the system is tedious, is not helpful for people trying to address various situations. ie. families ordering together. extra requests. seniors, people with learning disabilities, these are situations that require a person to interact with. i realize dealing with customers in this day is not a priority and everyone wants to block the "Karen's". But we need to relearn the "art of service". read more

I live close by so I've been coming here for years. The chicken is absolutely delicious. I've had chicken combos as well as bowls, salads, and burritos. Really fast service, I put in the mobile order and it's ready in minutes. The staff is very efficient. I'm a fan. read more

I usually like the food at el pollo locos but this location has always been quite disappointing... always sooooomuch beans and rice and a sprinkle of meat ...service isn't that great here either I wouldn't recommend this location to anyone . read more

This is the second time el pollo has over charge me when using a coupon. Food wasn't cooked completely how I asked. I will not return.

Ordered 2 Chicken Toatadas last night. Tasty, but they forget the chips and salsa that was to come with the meal. More importantly whoever filled the order was "very stingy" serving up half portions. My husband asked where's the food. SMH I'm a Realto, I could have sent you tons of business. read more

Very clever. I think they want you to clean the bowl after you use it. Do they have corporate inspections? read more

I went to El Pollo Loco today to eat i was seated , next to my table a manager from Pollo Loco came to seat next to my table he had a meeting with 2 employees 1 male and 1 female he was speaking to them regarding issues in the kitchen and telling them that they can't go to the bathroom only in their 10 minutes or lunch that that's the company rulesThe Manager look very upset and racing his voice there were more people eating at that time. this manager was not professional at all. I am wondering why El Pollo Loco don't have an office where they can take their employees to do any kind of meetings he disturb my peace i throw my food and left i would never go back there. read more

everything was soggy. when I got home even worse. I drank some of my fruit punch and it was watered down 0/5

Went to west hills epl on Platt. Bunch of silly and careless high school kids. No forks, no napkins provided, then I also realized no Tortilla. Bad manage most likely. I'm ordering food that requires utensils and nothing. The wingd were dry as well.. I asked if they had fresh wings. They said yes but not the case. read more
