El Pollo Loco is looking to crank up the heat this season by testing out a new bold and spicy Mango Habanero sauce.
For a limited time, select El Pollo Loco locations in Orange County and Los Angeles will be serving up the spicy-sweet new Mango Habanero sauce. The spicy sauce is designed to pair perfectly with El Pollo Loco's famous fire-grilled chicken. This means you can enjoy the sauce alongside your favorite individual chicken meals and family chicken meals.
If you're luckily enough to be in Orange County or Los Angeles, you'll want to try the new sweet-and-spicy creation while it's available because sales during this test period will help the chain determine if the Mango Habanero sauce will become a permanent chainwide menu item.
