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 Duarte,CA, we believe that when real food meets real fire the result is great taste that will keep you coming back again and again.
Fast-food chain outpost known for Mexican classics made with fire-grilled chicken. Based on 820 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 3.9 stars. Price $

The food was delicious! I usually get a salad or a bowl. I came here with my mom and she loved her food as well. I love that I can hear the employees communicating with each other and having a great time 🙂 I will definitely be coming back to this location

I did a drive thru for a Grande Avocado bowl. As you can see it the posted picture, everything was so fresh. Very delicious.

Stumbled upon this place after a load. Fire grilled chicken with a very distinct flavor! Mexican Corn is a plus, too! Quiet atmosphere and great service.

This El pollo loco is strange several times I’ve gone and they’ve closed earlier than there posted closing time. The drive thru is also odd I’ve gone during peak hours and the drive thru can be empty and off peak hours packed, it’s been hit or miss with this location, sometimes the chicken is juicy and delicious other times it’s been very dry. Interior is clean and staff is friendly.

This El Pollo Loco is the only only one that has a drive-thru with in 20 miles of where I live. They have a app where you can order and pick-up. So far no issues with my orders which is a great plus. They also have keto friendly options which is great as many fast food restaurants don’t.

Got my 2nd time delivery from this El Pollo Loco. The delivery process is great overall. Food quality is nice and tasty, chicken meal and tacos are good, it’s definitely worthy if you have any chance to get promotion or discount.

Pamela the girl making the food was rude as hell. The lady that took my order Elodia C was really nice but she got my order wrong. And when i received my order and she told pamela to make my burrito, pamela was complaining about me not wanting the tacos now. When i never wanted the tacos i wanted the burrito. She constantly talked bad about having to make my order correctly. Never again going back to this location.

We asked the lady that gave us our chicken meal that was a good $30 bucks some chili and all she gave was 2 small containers of cilantro and 1small container of onion she was very snotty and should not be working for Pollo Loco. Very non professional . We took the time to go and give our money to enjoy our meal. But we were very disappointed with the service. She may need training.

Chicken was a little dry. Beans were pretty good. Not enough corn tortillas with my plate, could have used one more tortilla.

I always love the food here. Not all Pollo Loco places serve as well as this location.
