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

They forgot my chips and queso and they also forgot my dressing for the salad. Just make sure to check your order before you drive off.

TRIED to eat here since on Apple Maps it says open until 1100PM. It was closed. Too bad because I like this place
