The Chicken on Fire is a popular restaurant known for its delicious fried chicken and cozy atmosphere. The Soy Garlic chicken wings are a must-try, and the medium fried chicken for two is a favorite for takeout. The chicken is plump, moist, and crispy, with sides like rice and salad that complement the meal. Customers say the wings are extra large, fresh, and perfectly cooked, with a crust that shatters when bitten. The chicken is served hot and flavorful, with the option to have the sauce on the side or coated in the kitchen for an even flavor. The batter is praised for its crunchiness and juiciness, and the chicken's quality is often compared to some of the best fried chicken experiences. The restaurant is small, neat, and clean, with friendly and attentive staff. Most orders are to go, and many customers enjoy leftovers that can be reheated or eaten cold. The restaurant's takeout preserves the crispiness of the chicken well, even after a drive. Customers also appreciate the variety of flavors, including sweet & sour and soy garlic, both of which are highly recommended. Overall, The Chicken on Fire is considered one of the best fried chicken places in the East Bay, offering fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked chicken in a warm, inviting setting.
