News: El Pollo Loco - Brand Nuevo Grilled Chicken Burritos

El Pollo Loco's 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 flame-grilled chicken, fresh avocado, rice, pinto beans, flame-grilled corn, fresh cilantro, diced onions, melted Jack cheese, and a mild salsa prepared with Poblano chilies, wrapped up in a flour tortilla.

The Califresco features flame-grilled chicken, grilled vegetables, rice, pinto beans, pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, melted Jack cheese, and avocado salsa, wrapped up in a flour tortilla.

El Tradicional features flame-grilled chicken cooked in a mild verde salsa wrapped up in a flour tortilla along with rice, pinto beans, fresh cilantro, diced onions, and melted jack cheese.

The Spicy Chipotle features flame-grilled chicken, rice, pinto beans, pico de gallo, sour cream, fresh cilantro, melted jack cheese, and fire-roasted chipotle salsa, wrapped up in a flour tortilla.

El Pollo Loco also introduces new Tropical Habanero Chicken for a limited time. Available through September 23, Tropical Habanero Chicken offers 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.
