50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Alhambra

“I love the service and the food . My husband and I enjoyed it so much 🤍🤍🤍🤍🥲😋

Service was 100%

Super clean

Maybe turn off 1 of the 4 tvs and lower the music . I kind of had to be loud in order to hear my husband .“

“Our food was exceptionally delicious! Wonderful flavors and delicious cucumber mint agua fresca too! Also fun, cozy atmosphere inside too. You can tell when you’re there it’s a very popular eatery, and for good reason! I’ve been there twice in as many weeks and I can’t wait to go again! 😁“

“Absolutely amazing. After a disappoint go at the Mancoras peruivian cuisine on main, I found this place in walking distance. Gave it a shot and the chicken is amazing. The #1 recommendation is have is the #1 Chicken sandwich (white or dark meat) it's by far the best chicken sandwich I've had. Easily blowing Raising Canes and all other chicken sandwich establishments out of the park. The balance between each ingredient was spot on and I could easily devour multiple of these in one sitting due to how good it is. 100% recommend this place.

Side note, for any people planning to eat here. Order ahead of time (sometimes it can take 30+ minutes) and avoid the wraps, go for the chicken on the bun instead. It's vastly superior because the wraps seem to be poorly constructed. The wraps seem to be overflowing with sauce which makes the wrap soft and weak so its, hard to hold let alone eat, without it breaking apart in your hands“

“Best chicken, just wish they could handle the flow of people. At least the Alhambra, Ca location is not setup to handle the amount of people in line at a decent turn around.“

“My experience at Ace Burger today was nothing short of amazing! I ordered the chicken tenders, fries, and corn on the cob, and everything was a perfect 10. The chicken tenders especially stood out—they had the perfect amount of spice and breading. On top of the fantastic food, the woman who made the food and the gentleman (I believe they’re the owners) were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful. Their kindness made the visit even more special. Wishing much success to this wonderful place!!

P.S. Food was so good I forgot to take pictures 😂❤️“

“Original chicken is good, I didn't find that the gravy enhanced it, the fried chicken is good enough on its own.
The spaghetti is not awful, but I would say that it's an acquired taste. Spaghetti that sweet isn't my preference.“

“First time coming here. Went to the drive thru and was very impressed with how fast the order was given to me after ordering. Got home and my family were all very happy with the chicken. Chicken was tasty and cooked well. Sides were also very good.“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

“Fabulous chicken Sando!!! Absolutely delicious. Everyone is ALWAYS SO FRIENDLY. I try and go as often as I can. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“I come to this location of Dave’s Hot Chicken more than my doctor wants me to! The food is always top notch, the restaurant is always running like a well run machine, always clean, always welcoming, always a great atmosphere! The management and staff here are amazing. And did I mention the food? Seriously - skip the other hot chicken chains - this place rules. And when they say hot - they mean hot! Yessssssss!“

“Absolutely delicious food. Competitive prices, and welcoming atmosphere. The servings were generous; You will not leave here hungry. I highly recommend this establishment and look forward to my next chance to dine here. 👍🏻👍🏻“

“I worked t Pioneer Chicken #1 on Echo Park as a cook, prep, and last as a manager for 13 years . I never got tired of eating Pioneer Chicken. I always go to Soto and Whittier location“

“I discovered this place through a YouTuber’s recommendation and I’m really glad I tried it. It was my first visit, and while it’s easy to miss since there’s no sign outside, I had no trouble finding it.

We were greeted right away, ordering was simple, and the food was ready in about 10–15 minutes. The chicken was the highlight—flavorful, juicy, and very filling. The sides (sweet potato fries and coleslaw) were just okay; the fries were a bit soggy when we got home and the coleslaw was slightly too tangy for our taste.

Overall, the chicken alone makes it worth a visit. I’d definitely recommend it!“

“Went in late at night on Sunday 7/13. Dominic was front cashier. Straight up and serious, not in a bad way but a “Get the job done” typa guy. Only downside was they had powered off the shake machine early so no shakes available. Other than that, they had everything else available! Solid location.“

“Absolutely lovely establishment! One of the best Jollibee locations I have been to.

Sebastien was very attending + helped make the experience very good for my family and I. It is my first time LA and I am thankful for the great food + great service

Everything was also clean, AC just needs to be fixed upstairs I think“

“Ordered this place on doordash and it was really good. Theres no ½ and ½ button on doordash but i put it in the notes and got half spicy half soy. The wings were fried perfectly. Rendered dry sky and moist well cooked inside. The soy garlic and spicy Korean were delicious. Not too sweet or artificial tasting. The side is what i would describe as a “deep fried side chex mix” it was onion ring, fries and hand cut potato chips. This was a delight and solid market differentiator. I got 8 wing halves total and the website describes the order as 1lb ranging between 6-8 wings. For the price, i liked getting the full 8 wings. Will be a regular.“

“Food was great. This was our first time visiting and we had a great experience. The cashier Alex had really great customer service and made are first visit that more memorable. His customer service was better than some of the other sit down restaurants we been to. We will definitely be coming back again.“

“This place is amazing. Great ambience and all workers were kind and gave Me great customer service. Honestly this place has the best chicken sandwiches and tenders hands down better than raising canes.
The milk shake is phenomenal way better than in n out. I definitely recommend y’all to try this place at least once.“

“Excellent Food and Outstanding Service!

I had an amazing experience at this Juan Pollo! The food was absolutely delicious — the chicken was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and tender, with just the right amount of seasoned flavor. The sides were fresh and flavorful, especially the potato salad, which has to be the BEST potato salad out there.

What really stood out, though, was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They made sure everything was to my liking and served everything quickly with a smile.

Juan Pollo offers not just great food, but also a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality food and exceptional service!“

“Just Wonderful Place To Eat At“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“Family friendly fresh food and amazing customer service. Should out to Angelica who is patient, warm and friendly behind the counter. Just a nice easy healthy choice for a family meal.“

“This place is truly a hidden gem. The chicken is always so flavorful, and their salsa never misses! it’s consistently delicious every single time. Honestly, it beats a lot of the big chain spots. We love coming here, and the prices are very reasonable. Portions are generous too, we almost always leave with leftovers for the next day.“

“muy bien, lo recomiendo es buena. sólo que hay una que me atendió se puso un poco prepotente pero salió bien“

“*YUM* is all I have to say!! We adore this place, and friends who have moved away always beg to go here for chicken when they come home to visit. The chicken falls off the bone, their fried tofu is to die for! ������. You cannot go wrong here! But pay attention to their hours. They close mid-day for a few hours.“

“Such a great hospitality! During this difficult times I Loved the fact that today they were so special with the costumers and shared a fresh cut 🌹.“

“I just got a bowl at the new spot by USC. Juicy chicken, nice fluffy rice, The chipotle sauces are tasty and service was fast. I'll get another bowl for sure.“

“Friendly customer service. Fresh Hot Food“

“Ok so I like thier setup inside the have the grill out separately with a blower taking out the smoke out of the location so you don't leave smelling like charcoal...they're menu is good several options and at least a couple of their plates come with a half baked potato which I really wasn't expecting but I loved it....chicken was cooked throughly no red meat...tasted good....sides are good but macaroni salad tasted food but needs something I added salt...aguas frescas were running low got one tasted good but prevention was lacking they were down to the last cup in those big jugs they need machines or something that circulates the waters keeping them looking as good as they taste...but parking is a little crazy got blocked in but an employee came out when inside and asked one of the other customers to move their car for me...the place just needs to have the ac on but overall the food was really good....service was good but they do get busy....expect a 15 to 20 minute wait on busy days...pick your time wisely but definitely this spot should be on your radar...“

“I absolutely love the flavor of this chicken. Great customizable heat. I've ordered both the mild and the medium and both are delicious. Tiny little hole in the wall so I always get the order to go. My only issue is the chicken portion seems to keep getting a tad smaller with each visit. Probably more a sign of the times than an actual complaint.“

“Our food was exceptionally delicious! Wonderful flavors and delicious cucumber mint agua fresca too! Also fun, cozy atmosphere inside too. You can tell when you’re there it’s a very popular eatery, and for good reason! I’ve been there twice in as many weeks and I can’t wait to go again! 😁“

“Delicious food, fried chicken 🐔 the bomb and the pickled veggies are so good. Definitely a place to go in the DTLA area.“

“Chicken is tasty. My only question is why you can only have one flavor per order? We would have spent $60 for the large order to try four flavors. Were told that's impossible. Hello? Even WingStop is capable of delivering multiple flavors in one order.“

“Todo está muy rico 😋 gracias“

“I had the all white meat Hainan Chicken plate. Everything was absolutely delicious. I’m definitely coming back. I highly recommend this place.“

“Not quite as tasty as Popeyes but the strips are consistent. With Popeyes it’s a hit or miss. Sometimes it’s a bunch of dry smaller pieces other times it’s good a lot of the big juicy stuff. I’d recommend LFC on Lake to family and friends and go again.“

“바삭바삭한 후라이드, 매콤한 양념치킨과 입맛을 확 당기는 간장치킨. 중학교 시절 나에게 첫 치느님의 문을 열어준 건 치킨데이였다. 치킨데이 왕자님의 인맥을 통해 가끔씩 공짜로 얻어먹던 닭들은 나에게 있어 얘기치 못한 즐거움, 마치 공원에 누워 네잎클로버를 찾는 행운이었다. 하지만 10년이 지난 지금 난 깨달았다. 치킨데이는 네잎클로버가 아니란걸. 한국에 와서 내노라하는 네네 스노윙, BHC 뿌링클, 굽네 고추바사삭 치킨을 먹어봐도 내 마음속 한 구석엔 늘 채워지지 않는 공허함이 자리잡고 있었다. 맛은 있지만 정이 없는, 뒷마당에서 키우던 강아지를 보신탕으로 먹으면 이런 맛이었을까? 그래서 이 리뷰를 통해 치킨데이에게 사과의 말을 전하고 싶다. 너가 최고라는 걸 깨닫기까지 10년이나 걸려서 미안하다고. 너는 행운의 네잎클로버가 아닌 항상 내 발밑에 자리잡고 있던 행복의 세잎클로버라고.“

“Chicken is not greasy and their potatoe and macaroni salads are good too :)“

“I had a fantastic experience here! The first thing I noticed was how fresh everything tasted—the chicken and fries were fried to absolute perfection. You can really tell they use high-quality, fresh oil because there was none of that heavy, greasy aftertaste, just a perfectly clean and crisp crunch. To top it all off, the sauce was spot on and paired beautifully with the meal.“

“best chicken I Have ever had. loved it! Thanks“

“Phone in your order to speed up the wait. I usually get the garlic chicken panini. It's so so so very good. Keep in mind the limited hours. I wish they were open for dinner. It's also one of the few places you can still get a copy of the Pasadena Weekly.

Parking: If you don't see a spot to park in front, just park in the back. You enter the parking lot on the west side of the building. There's always an empty parking spot in back, but not as shaded.“

“People say this spot has some of the best fast food fried chicken. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their 4 piece meal with half fried and roasted chicken, beans, plantains, and tortillas. Yall know im a bean fiend and these beans were smooth, savory, and flavorful. The plantains were sweet, soft, caramalized, and a bit tart? Not really for me. The roasted chicken was super savory, flavorful, juicy, and actually really yummy. The fried chicken was perfectly crispity crunchy and just as flavorful and juicy. Pro tip is to make a taco using the corn tortilla with all the yummy ingredients. This place is actually pretty good.

4 pc meal $16.30 before tax“

“I was pleasantly surprised their pollo rostisado was delicious moist juicy and well seasoned and is was more economical that the other famous crazy chicken. They have a special 3 whole chickens for $38, as good as the Peruvian chicken at half the price

Come and enjoy

Boun appetite“

“A very clean and immaculately tidy restaurant and dining area from what I saw that offered an excellent meal for a fair price.

I had the Shawarma plate and it was one of the better ones that I've had. I will really have to try their chicken next time.“

“Everything is great at Jollibee! 😋💕😁“

“The food is fantastic, the cooks are simply amazing, it is a hit and miss with the people at the register, today I was served and taken care of by a gentleman by the name of Manuel, this person was exceptional, gladly took my order over the phone, mind you ,we are bus operators and we are always on the go, we call to put in our orders in hope that we dont have any further delays, we give the people enough time to get our orders ready and mind you we will never cancel , we have about 10 drivers that simply love this place, but at times ,we have reservations because we are in limbo of who we are going to get on the phone, for years ,we have been a patron of juan pollo, we need consistency...thank you guys“

“The fried pickles were really good! We loved them! All of our meals were really good. The chicken was tasty. The BLT had a good amount of crispy bacon crisp lettuce. The garlic aioli was yummy. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would definitely return.“

“This spot is a straight up gem. The wrap is off the chain and the fries are delish. If you're in the neighborhood, don't miss eating at this spot. Wow. I stumbled into this place. The owner is awesome and loved chatting. They only have 2 stores and this place is destined for greatness.“

“está bien buenas las ensaladas y las papas riquísimas👍👍👍👍“
