Healthier fast food. Good variety of Mexican food. Cost more than Taco Bell but better flavor and healthier choices. I receive good value savings coupons in the mail helping out on my food budget. Easy parking, friendly staff.

Food was made fresh. Come a little bit early to get your food during the rush hour times. Its a bit small inside so finding seating might be a challenge. I wished they had outside seating but. They compensated that with awesomeness of the food

I had my first experience with El Pollo Loco here at this branch and it was quite good. The food was prepared fast and it was delicious and the quality seemed to be decent. I tried Chicken Nachos and I would recommend that for sure.
