What people say
Mexican restaurants are known for their flavorful dishes and El Pollo Loco at Hwy 151 & Potranco Road in San Antonio is no exception. This fast-food restaurant offers a unique twist on traditional Mexican cuisine with its famous fire-grilled chicken that is cooked slow and served fast.
What sets El Pollo Loco apart from other chicken restaurants is their commitment to tradition. They marinate whole chickens in their family marinade of citrus, garlic, and spices several times a day, every day. The seasoned Grill Masters then grill the chicken low and slow for 55 minutes over an open flame, just like they have been doing for nearly four decades.
El Pollo Loco's menu also includes a variety of Mexican entrees that are sure to satisfy any craving. From burritos to tacos, customers can enjoy fresh and innovative L.A. Mex that is always cut-to-order. Families can even gather around the table for their famous family dinners.
Located at Hwy 151 & Potranco Road in San Antonio, El Pollo Loco has become a cultural benchmark in the area since its founding in 1980. With over 480 locations across six states, this restaurant continues to provide customers with high-quality food made from the best ingredients available. If you're looking for delicious Mexican cuisine with a twist, El Pollo Loco is definitely worth checking out!
