Chicken Shops near Claremont, CA

“Great experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken. The food was solid, heat level was on point, and everything came out fresh. What really stood out though was the service. Leilani was really cool, super friendly, and made the whole visit feel easy and welcoming. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.“

“I drove all the way from LA for this AND IT DID NOT DISSAPOINT!!! the nice family working there was having dinner together and it was cute. They helped me save money by suggesting a combo instead. There arent any seats or public restrooms but the chickens so good i couldnt even be upset. Im happily eating this in my car right now“

Restaurant is always clean and service is always on point. Staff member Olga is always very welcoming and helpful. Never hesitates to recommend something new. When picking up orders she always confirms everything is in the bag, and always offers condiments.“

“Amazing local spot.. a must. everything is freshly made.“

“The food was very juicy and dripping of not only the juice, however the sauce which perfectly coated each chicken drum. On top of that, the chicken stayed hot for a while! I loved the fries as they were crispy and did not sog. Would try again!“

“I was there eariler today. I had the best experience there ever. Both employees there were so nice and helpful! I didn't get her name, but the girl who helped me made sure my order was correct and prepared correctly. She even suggested the cheese sauce with our sandwiches and OMG mixed with the crimson sauce. The absolutely best combination I've ever had. 10/10 would recommend this place. I'll definitely be coming back!! Thank you guys for the great service!!“

“There is only 1 nice guy manning the front and kitchen. I tried calling ahead but the phone wasn’t working. I left and came back after 30 min for 1 order of popcorn chicken but it wasn’t ready. The owner is not doing his or her job cheaping out on service. They are lucky to have this guy working here.“

“Super friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere. The chicken was crispy and juicy. Salsas are definitely worth a try! Food was served straight to our table within 5-10 minutes after ordering. The staff was so helpful in picking out deals and coupons. I highly recommend this place. The prices are low, and just a great establishment overall.“

“chicken wings off the hook“

“Korean fried chicken is just the best! Non greasy and a light batter. The plain wings are perfect and the flavored ones are even more delicious. I recommend the Honey Garlic variety“

“It’s so good and they’re survice😘“

“Not a fan of the no human interaction when ordering. Chicken tenders were a little flatter than I expected but were yummy. Ordered hot and felt more like medium. Was paying for
it on the throne the next day lol. My go to place for chicken.“

“This spot is by far my most favorite chicken joint. I have been coming here for the past decade and the food never ceases to amaze me. Each time I am brought to nostalgia despite the amount of different locations I have been to. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants to find a new spot.“

“Great children foods .. it easy fast food and it very delicious 🤤 I will come back after gym“

“Absolutely no complaints here! Each time I order from here it delivers! Winner, winner, chicken dinner, right? lol. I usually get the half-and-half wings. I've enjoyed pretty much their entire lineup. They've turned me into a regular.“

“Bbq always delivers in terms of flavor. The only reason I didn't get five stars is because at this location the cook that works in the the morning afternoon shift is far superior to whoever they have cooking in the back at night... 😂“

“雞肉鮮嫩多汁，迅速送餐，餐廳乾淨明亮舒適！可惜沾醬少了一點…“

“Service was extremely fast. My food was ready before I was done getting my drink. The atmosphere is definitely very fun and the food is good. I usually swap the cole slaw for more Texas toast, though. The price are also pretty good especially for the portion sizes.“

“fast, friendly service for being do busy three employees always make time to see if you're ok or need refills.“

“I know this shop used to have a not so great reputation in the 90's early 2000's, but honestly this is my go to now for croissants, deep fried fish, and some other Chinese stuff on the side. They have variety as far as their food and I personally love their ham/cheese/jalapeño croissants and their maple bars. Fried fish and chicken is definitely solid compared to other chain restaurants. If you're a pomona local check them out and stop by for breakfast or lunch! ❤️“

“friendly atmosphere, good customer service and very clean“

“The place is small, but there is a nice seating area outside. Service is excellent, even when there are only two employees, and we didn't have to wait long for the food. We usually order the family special #1 with two whole chickens and two large sides. The chicken is tenderly cooked and moist, without dripping oil. My family's favorites are the pasta and rice, but everything else is also good, such as the bread and salsa. We like the food here, and you should give it a try too!“

“My order here is always correct.“

“Love their Christmas lights. And their peppermint shake.“

“Eric H. has AMAZING customer service!!!! He is so nice and friendly and just really seems to love his job!! Very clean store as well and the food is always bomb!

Vegetarian options: I really love the plantspired bowel with added avocado it's always a winner for me“

“El mejor pollo rostisado que he probado, su sabor y textura es incomparable..“

“Wow. I don’t usually review restaurants, let alone fast food, but the service and experience were so outstanding I couldn’t resist. Jett, who took my order, was so much more than an order taker. I don’t know if I can explain how professional, welcoming, and just nice he was. He was also efficient…taking care of new orders, pick-up orders, straightening outdoor seating chairs, and asking something meaningful to each customer. If I was in my home state, I would honestly try and recruit him for our business! The food was also fresh and delicious.“

“I currently live in Maryland and I’m always craving this chicken! I can’t wait to come back to California in November so I can get some chicken! Best chicken I have ever had!!!“

“Near the target and next to a boba shop, it's in a convenient location. Healthy food and great value. It's been years since I've been to this location and was pleasantly surprised how the quality of food had increased! Thank you ?“

“Had moved out of state two years ago and was genuinely missing El Pollo. Was in town a couple days and it was on the food Fav list to hit on my brief visit. Thankfully, I was NOT disappointed. Service was spot on and the food was fresh and FABULOUS!“

“I started going to this Waba Grill pretty recently when passing through the area, and I gotta say, it's my favorite one to go to! By far the cleanest one, my food is served quickly with the correct portions, and all in all I could tell people work efficiently around here. The last few times I went, I was served by Jaime and Alex; I've had different vibes from different workers across different locations, but I feel I get the best vibes when coming here and when I've been served by these two! 5/5 would recommend pulling up if you're in the area.“

“Loved the fast and friendly service, it was delicious and the place was very clean“

“This KFC is top notch in flavor. I live near three other KFC’s. , but when I pass this one I have to stop and have a late lunch. Remember how the KFC bucket tasted as a kid, this is one of the few that taste the same. Plus their biscuits are always flaky and hot“

“I've been going to this Waba for close to 10 years, usually being 2-4x a week for lunch. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food has never missed. I highly recommend this location over others locally. I've been to other local locations and just did not get the service I've always gotten at this location.“

“I'm a worker there and it's always a pleasure seeing a lot of people come in to have a healthy meal... but besides that waba grill is an amazing place to go eat always heathy, and fresh“

“food is always delicious and the staff is so polite..honestly love how they treat customers.“

“I just went through the drive-through and ordered my meal. Natalia Took my order. I just want to say that she was the friendliest, most considerate and helpful drive-through employee that I have ever come into contact with. My food was great, but regardless of how my food was I really just want to point out that that was the best drive-through experience I’ve had. Thank you, Natalia.“

“Me gustó muy buen servicio y el pollo muy buen sabor“

“Convenient location, friendly employees, good food. This location was busy, but still the employees should be checking on the dining room for cleaning. This seemed to be a corporate location because the prices were not as high as other El Pollo Loco franchise locations.“

“healthy option. keto certified menus“

“Been to the Montclair ca location several times and never had an issue. But for some reason on the date of Oct 14 2025 there were two employees. A cook and a cashier. The Cashier was not very knowledgeable, and couldn't really answer questions I had about certain food. So now to the issue..I was a little pressed for time. For my order to be prepared and finished took over 21 minutes! My wife actually had to get up and stand up to get the cashier's attention. Once she saw my wife, she told my wife the food was almost done. I almost decided to ask for a refund and leave without food.“

“Connie provided exceptional customer service during my visit. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and made sure my veggies were perfectly well done, just the way I like them, along with my chicken. It’s rare to find someone who takes the time to make sure everything is exactly right, and Connie truly went above and beyond.

Employees like her make a huge difference in the customer experience. I’m genuinely impressed and grateful for her professionalism and friendly attitude. I 100% recommend this Waba Grill location!“

“Great spot for a quick, healthy, and tasty meal! The food is always fresh, portions are solid, and everything is cooked just right. I love how customizable the bowls are, and the flavors never disappoint. The staff is friendly and works hard, even when it gets busy. You can tell this place is run with care. Definitely one of my go-to spots—highly recommend checking it out!“
