News: El Pollo Loco - Brand Nuevo Grilled Chicken Burritos

In a bit of un-inspired nomenclature, El Pollo Loco has four Brand Nuevo Grilled Chicken Burritos. "Nuevo" means "new" in Spanish so basically El Pollo Loco has four new "Brand New" Burritos.

The Brand Nuevo Grilled Chicken Burritos costs $5.00 and come in four varieties:

"The Poblano features El Pollo Loco’s signature flame-grilled chicken combined with fresh avocado, rice, pinto beans, flame-grilled corn, fresh cilantro, diced onions, melted Jack cheese and a mild salsa prepared with Poblano chilies.

The Califresco features El Pollo Loco’s signature flame-grilled chicken combined with grilled vegetables, rice, pinto beans, fresh pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, melted Jack cheese and our fresh hand-made avocado salsa.

El Tradicional features El Pollo Loco’s hand-pulled flame-grilled chicken cooked in a mild verde salsa and then combined with rice, pinto beans, fresh cilantro, diced onions and melted jack cheese.

The Spicy Chipotle features El Pollo Loco’s signature flame-grilled chicken combined with rice, pinto beans, fresh pico de gallo, sour cream, fresh cilantro, melted jack cheese and a spicy, smoky fire-roasted chipotle salsa."

El Pollo Loco is also introducing for a limited time their new Tropical Habanero Chicken. Available through September 23, Tropical Habanero Chicken features flame-grilled chicken covered in a sweet and spicy glaze featuring guava, citrus and Habanero chilies.

  1. Nope, no outlets in Missouri.

    Mostly out west with a presence in Georgia, Texas and Illinois.

    Perhaps it is due to residing in an area where garnered road-kill feeds so many.

  2. These are the best burritos in Las Vegas which does not have good Mexican food. They come out to $5.76 with tax. The poblano is loaded with chicken and rice but dodge the beans because they make it kinda soggy.

  3. I wouldn't feel too bad, I think El Pollo Loco is generally overrated. That's probably just me though. I will admit these burritos look good, but they should be for five bucks.
