A new restaurant is now open in Lompoc.
Many cars and people were in line at el pollo loco Monday night on the 900 block of H Street.
A worker tells KSBY it was the first day the business was open.
The restaurant is located in the space that Lompoc Restaurant used to occupy next to Walgreens.
The well-known A-frame building was torn down a little more than a year ago to make way for this new eatery.
