“The service was great, the atmosphere was cozy but what really stood out was the FOOD!!! Every single thing we tried was absolutely amazing. The birria tacos alone are worth driving the hour away that I live. The salsa was great, the guac was outstanding. The rice was delicious and cooked to perfection. The refried beans were by far the best I've ever had. I will certainly be returning!!!”

“Love Moe's food but when I went in today to grab lunch the young manager on duty was rude and not friendly. The owner was also there and was full of smiles and very friendly.”

“Yesterday, I hosted a lunch party here for 10 people, and called the day before to give them a heads up that we were coming. None of us had eaten here before. The food and service were excellent. We will be back.”

“Absolutely love this place! Their $1 tacos on Mondays are awesome, and the enchiladas and Mexican pizzas are just as good. The birria tacos are next-level—especially with the extra cheese on the outside of the double-layered tortilla. Chips and salsa are solid for the price, and I always appreciate their fun Facebook giveaways. Highly recommend if you’re in town or just passing through!”

El Pollo Loco is betting that loyalty members want more than discounts. The fire-grilled chicken chain rolled out a refreshed Loco Rewards program earlier this year, pairing exclusive experiences with app-driven promotions as part of a broader turnaround that's already delivering results. The centerpiece of the relaunch: a partnership with Coca-Cola for a "soccer challenge" giving members a shot at a VIP trip to the 2026 Major League Soccer All-Star Game in Charlotte, N.C., on July 29. The grand prize includes two game tickets, hotel accommodations, flight vouchers, and a $300 Visa gift card. A hundred runner-up winners each receive a $25 El Pollo Loco gift card.
