“El Pollo Loco on Greenfield in Laguna Niguel is one of the best locations in our area. Isabel is the manager and we must say that we've had nothing but a wonderful experience with her, every time we've come here. One time, we were shorted during our drive-through order and we called her, and she immediately took care of it and then some! This evening we were back again and she was so kind to tell us all about their specials and to give us a coupon. She is so professional, courteous, and welcoming! If you want a good Apollo experience come to the Greenfield location, ask for Isabel, you won't be disappointed!!“

“Best fish tacos I've had in the inland empire. Place is always crowded but the get your order quickly and your food out fast. They have 3 ways to order your fish taco, blackened and ensenada style are my favorite. Definitely the best white rice ever. So much flavor! Lots of toppings and salsa to choose from in their help yourself condiments bar.
Having their pico de gallo is a must. I eat that stuff with a fork! So good.
They do offer other Mexican food if you're not into fish.
Enchiladas, tacos carne asada and such. You choose the type of beans that you want both are incredibly good I usually go with the black beans with my fish tacos but the pinto beans are amazing too. The presentation of the food looks extremely nice too I wish I took a picture.
They waste no time in cleaning up your table the second you're out the door for more people to sit down.
The place is clean, loud, and has a great atmosphere with many big screen TVS. They serve different types of beer and all you can drink sodas.

Parking: There's only a couple of spots in front of the restaurant but plenty on the side and more in the back. Parking is never an issue and there are two ways to enter in case you park in the back North side .

Kid-friendliness: This place is for everybody some people bring their whole family a lot of times it's just couples. Fire departments are there all the time and police officers are there all the time it's the place to go.“

I ordered the Carnitas Jolisco and, I must say, it was seasoned perfectly, not dried out, and topped with diced white onion and chopped cilantro. My pops ordered the Chile Verde, and he couldn't stop talking about it. And for dessert we ordered Churros, and those came with whipped cream on the side. It was all delicious and satisfying. Will definitely be returning!!“

“Las Golandrias has an extensive menu featuring breakfast, a la carte, and combo meals. There is no seating for diners here (no even for those waiting to order/pick up their orders). Food is generally prepared within 15 minutes of placing an order. I have only been to this location and I have been told that quality and options are different (and generally, not as good) at their other restaurants.
My favorites are the crunchy beef (asada) tacos and the beef enchiladas. I usually get the combo which includes a generous portion of beans and rice. Very tasty for the price!“
