El Pollo Loco opened its newest location in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Tuesday. The restaurant, located at 4292 Blue Diamond Road, is the 21st location to open in the Las Vegas market.

"We are excited to continue expanding in the state of Nevada and offer another conveniently located destination for individuals and families to enjoy our handcrafted dishes,” says Steve Sather, chief executive officer at El Pollo Loco. “Our signature citrus-marinated, fire-grilled chicken is a crowd pleaser and we look forward to sharing our distinctive menu with the Las Vegas community.”

The brand’s signature citrus-marinated chicken is prepared on an open flame grill by El Pollo Loco Grill Masters and then hand-cut, and served in its chicken meals and Mexican-inspired entrees. Whether guests are looking for a family chicken meal, burrito, salad, quesadilla or under 500-calorie options, El Pollo Loco has a wide variety of offerings.

The 2,454-square-foot restaurant has seating for 58 guests and features the brand’s hacienda design, with an open kitchen layout for customers to view El Pollo Loco’s signature chicken.
