    Que ironía, un burrito del Pollo Loco sin pollo ‍

    es mejor que eviten visitar este lugar, no les pusieron pollo a mis burritos. fui por unos burritos un día en la noche como a las 9:45 pm, y al llegar a mi casa y comer notamos que no tenían pollo, regresé a los dos días y pedí hablar con el encargado para comentarle lo que pasó, el encargado de nombre raudel g. se molestó y me pidió que a la otra regresé ese día o llame por teléfono, creo que no debe haber ninguna otra vez, con los que tiene que hablar son los cocineros para que eso no vuelva a pasar. el señor raudel g. no se comportó como un encargado profecional, sin su mal manejo de la situación no me hubieran perdido como cliente. it's best you avoid visiting this place. they didn't put any chicken in my burritos. i went to get some burritos one night around 9:45 pm, and when i got home and ate, we noticed they didn't have any chicken. i returned two days later and asked to speak to the manager to tell him what had happened. the manager, named raudel g., got upset and asked me to come back that day or call him. i don't think there should be another time. the ones you should be talking to are the cooks so this doesn't happen again. mr. raudel g. did not behave like a professional manager, without his poor handling of the situation they would not have lost me as a client.

    Burnt and dry chicken

    One can generally rely on any pollo loco to be consistent and fresh but not tonight ,we bought a 8 piece family meal , it looks like they gave us a previously cooked chicken and tried to re grill it , we open the container to find a dry burnt chi

    After having a bad experience at the Pollo Loco in Montebello, my family and I decided to try the Pollo Loco here in Rosemead. The atmosphere was cozy and the service was good. I really recommend this location. I live in Montebello and the drive was worth it. I had a good meal with my family.

    Dry chicken

    I want to update my review. It is only fair to do so as I was contacted by the Manager of El Pollo Loco. Which was unexpected. I find that very professional and excellent as a customer service quality. The manager and I talked about the dispute I had with his Assistant Manager. He re-assured me that they do not serve recooked chicken. Which was one of my concerns. He also stated that he will make sure that the quality of the chicken is excellent. I did failed to mention that the assistant manager did offer to replace my meal when we had the dispute. The Manager was very understanding and helpful. He did offer a meal replacement or to give me my money back. He was very pleasant to talk to and he apologized for my several bad experiences in the past. The customer service he provided today was excellent. As for the Assistant Manager Maria when we had the dispute she was professional about it as well. So far I am very pleased with the customer service I have received after my review was taken into consideration. For their customer service they do receive a 5 stars from me. As for the chicken I do not know when I will buy chicken from here again. It was nice of the Manager to tell me to call him if I want to buy chicken from there again.

    Small burrito. It's just a little bigger than my fingers Their pollo bowl didn't have pollo just enough to taste the chicken. Our order was all bad. Take a look at the so call burrito. It's so small. WTH pollo loco get together.

    Can't ever go wrong with the chicken tostada, especially at this location the service is always amazing and fast. I've been here in the afternoon, and evening with different staff but This is one of the best Pollo Loco I've been to and the store is always clean because of how they work and the management that takes care of this place, they also added a new color which is pretty cool and the app is always great for some deals. Check them out for sure.

    Surprisingly, after eating here for the past few years, it was brought to my attention that I've…read morenever actually written a review. For me, this is more of a grab-and-go teriyaki spot. While there is plenty of seating and I often see people dining in, I usually take my food to go. The service has always been pretty straightforward. Most of the employees taking orders tend to be serious and not overly chatty. It hasn't always been the friendliest service, but honestly, I don't come here for conversation, I come for the food. The chicken teriyaki plate is my go-to order, and you really can't go wrong with it, especially if you add avocado. The portions are solid, the food is consistently good, and everything tastes fresh. Overall, this is a great local spot when you're craving teriyaki. Nothing overly fancy, just dependable food that keeps me coming back year after year.

    This restaurant is in the same plaza as the movie theatre so if you don't feel like eating hot dogs…read moreor theatre food, this is a good alternative. What made me try this place was the smell. I could smell the delicious chicken and teriyaki smell from outside. For me I wanted to try the Teriyaki Chicken snd Tofu with brown rice. My teriyaki bowl ended up being like 20+ dollars so I kinda feel it's a bit expensive. They have different sizes so I ended up getting the biggest one. I see a lot of people just ordering the largest one too. So the basic bowl is just rice and chicken or a protein. If you wanted to add veggies, it's a charge. Most teriyaki places would charge like 1-2 dollars to add veggies. I was charged like 5 dollars ish for veggies. I'm not sure if that's because I ordered a large bowl. The food did taste good, the veggies tasted fresh, the teriyaki chicken had a real good char flavor to it and the sauce is good. I wish they had real sauce containers for their teriyaki sauce because they give you it in a sriracha bottle which looks old and a bit dirty. It's not a full service sit down restaurant so there isn't much of a service. You go up to the counter and you pick up the food yourself. Any napkins or utensils you have to ask them for it. None of that stuff is on the table. You also have to bus your own tray. Overall, it's a bit on the pricey side but it taste good. Their teriyaki sauce is really good and it's not too sweet or salty. Would recommend trying it out.

    GOD BLESS THESE TWO WORKERS!!!!…read more I am new to this crazy city, and on Sunday 2/22/25, it was my first time coming to this location and OMG was it PACKED!!!! There were people everywhere! Uber eats, families dinning in, kids screaming, people like me ordering to-go; omg it was pure chaos. LOL. I am not sure of their names, I think one is "Ant" (possibly the manager) and I'm not sure of the young mans name in grey (he has red braces) buuuut holy COW ! Give them a round of applause!!!! They were carrying the show! Customers were being so rude, yelling at the staff, demeaning their orders/ time it was going to take, asking questions left and right about their order etc. and not once did either of the two workers snap (lord know I would've) I personally told the young man he was doing great, and I truly hope he knows I meant it! He did a million shakes and FAST while answering everyone's demands and still trying to take orders to help the crazy line out. I definitely feel this must be the hardest job- fast food! The cooks were going as fast as they possibly could, and the people just kept pouring in. The pressure literally seemed like Hell's Kitchen ! LOL All around this little team did an awesome job and I will definitely come back. Food:5/5 Service 10/5 Clean: 5/5

I took a bite of his sandwich. I thought it was very mid, not my style. The only thing that catches my eye is the Santa Barbara, which I didn't get this time I wanted to try something new so I got there avocado chicken wrap with a side of sweet potato fries. The wrap was OK. I would say it was a six. Just thought. It was very empty. It was lacking chicken. I also ordered a side of onion rings, which were definitely fire so crunchy and fresh. The sweet potato fries are some of the best. I've also tasted customer service. What's fine. The drummer took my order was very friendly if I go back it's because I'm getting sweet potato fries and onion rings. Lol
