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 Yuba 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.
Fast-food chain outpost known for Mexican classics made with fire-grilled chicken. Based on 823 reviews, the restaurant has received a rating of 4.0 stars. Price $

El Pollo Loco is one of my favorite spots for fast food and this location specifically has been very consistent on the service and quality they provide. Their chicken is really good, I’ve tried almost all their items because I love trying new food and I just love their chicken. The tostada salad, their bowls, tacos and holiday tamales and bowls are my favorite. My suggestion is for you to download the app so you place your order ahead and also earn some rewards. There’s usually gonna be one or two special offers on the app, although my favorite value meal on the menu doesn’t need a coupon, and it is the Original Pollo Bowl, you’ll get a small size (which is enough) chicken bowl, tortillas or chips and a drink for 5.99 or one dollar less without the drink and tortillas. This is the one on the photo. Thank you for the great service every time.

How does this restaurant manage to be so consistently awesome? I just tried it for the first time and the food is great, the staff are awesome and it’s so fast to get through the line. The quality of the food for what you pay is so good. A++

It was good for fast food Mexican dining. The place was empty. I went in around 3 pm on a Saturday. The service was fast and friendly. There was plenty of parking!

We got the quesabirria tacos and burrito. It was good but not great. The tortilla chips were gross. It was kinda pricey. But they girl who served us was such a sweet girl. I think she had green hair? Great, excellent and AMAZING customer service!

Great food, but not overcooked skin to chew it.

The chicken was fire grilled to perfection. A little char on the outside tender and juicy on the inside with a nice hint of garlic. Had two sides of beans. I love those beans. Especially when they’ve cooked for a while, the juice gets thick and tasty. Only weird thing, is they give you a fork, knife, and napkin in a package. No spoon. I like eating beans with a spoon. But I’ve adapted. I eat the beans with a fork, then drink the juice. One of life’s little struggles.
