Los Angeles, CA, USA

El Pollo Loco, founded in 1975 by Juan Francisco Ochoa in Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico, has grown into a prominent restaurant chain specializing in Mexican-style grilled chicken. The name translates to "The Crazy Chicken," reflecting the brand's commitment to delivering flavorful and authentic dishes.

The company operates approximately 500 company-owned and franchised restaurants across the Southwestern United States, including California, Arizona, Nevada, and Texas.

The cornerstone of El Pollo Loco's menu is its signature fire-grilled chicken. Each piece is marinated in a blend of citrus and spices, then grilled over a low flame for 60 minutes. This results in tender and flavorful meat, central to the brand's identity and appealing to customers seeking authentic Mexican flavors.

In addition to its renowned chicken offerings, El Pollo Loco provides a diverse menu that includes tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and bowls.

  • The Original Pollo Bowl features rice, pinto beans, chicken, and pico de gallo.
  • The Double Chicken Bowl offers extra chicken, rice, black beans, and avocado.
  • The Double Chicken Avocado Salad includes avocado, bacon, and creamy cilantro dressing for health-conscious diners.

To enhance the dining experience, El Pollo Loco offers a rewards program called Loco Rewards. Customers can earn points with every purchase and redeem them for free menu items.

The company also provides catering services, bringing its bold, fire-grilled flavors to events and gatherings.
