“We are excited to bring El Pollo to Lake Havasu and offer the
community a family-friendly environment where they can enjoy our
signature citrus-marinated, fire-grilled chicken and authentic
Mexican offerings,” said Phong Huynh of Pack-Huynh, LLC. “The local
community has been vocal in their desire to have their very own El
Pollo Loco and we are happy to welcome residents and visitors of
Lake Havasu to come join us at our new restaurant.”
“We are thrilled to have Pack-Huynh bring El Pollo Loco to Lake
Havasu and continue our growth in the Phoenix market,” said Steve

been great partners to us throughout the years and exemplify
exactly what we look for in all new and existing franchisee
relationships.”
The 2,990 square foot restaurant has seating for 70 guests and
incorporates the brand’s new ‘Vision Design,’ which highlights an
authentic, Mexican-inspired atmosphere and encompasses El Pollo
Loco’s menu and brand identity. The new design features warm
