About El Pollon

Our story, our passion, our promise to you

Our Story

El Pollon started with a simple dream: to bring the bold, authentic flavors of Latin American grilled chicken to the heart of West Virginia. Founded by Luis Neira, our restaurant draws on generations of culinary tradition, where every recipe tells a story of family, celebration, and the joy of sharing a great meal.

From our signature marinated chickens — slow-cooked over open flames until the skin is golden and crackling — to our homestyle sides made fresh daily, everything at El Pollon is crafted with love and care. We believe that food is more than nourishment; it's a way to bring people together.

Located at 38 Joshua M Freeman Boulevard in Ranson, WV, we are proud to serve our community with the same warmth and generosity that inspired us to open our doors. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch, picking up dinner for the family, or celebrating a special occasion, you'll always be treated like one of our own.
