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.“

“This little small Korean wings spot surprise me. I got the Korean barbecue spicy wings with fries. And the wings came out super crispy and flavorful. The fries that look really mid surprise me as well with this spices which again was very flavorful. I was looking for a new wings location and this is by far the best I’ve been to in all of I.E. I highly recommend this place if you love Korean wings.“

“35 different spices ir ways to have ur chicken“

“I've been coming to this Legend Hot Chicken location for a while now, usually once every couple of weeks when the craving hits. What keeps me coming back is the consistency. Every single time the chicken comes out crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the spice levels are actually distinguishable from each other, not just a vague gradient like some other hot chicken spots. My go-to is the sandwich at a medium-hot level with a side of fries, and it's never let me down. Staff are friendly and quick even during busier lunch hours. It's not a sit-down fancy experience by any means, more of a quick casual stop, but for what it's going for it nails the execution every time. If you're a fan of Nashville-style heat, this is a solid, reliable option.“

“The dragon fruit drink was delicious and had such a sweet taste. I really enjoyed it especially with it being my first ever order from WaBa grill. Also the server Emiliano was super kind and requested the best drink that’s I could have tried there !“

“All that everyone and everything was excellent“

“I will say the service is nice. The people were friendly. It was my first time there. I asked the guy who work there making the food what did he recommend. He stated he gets for fries w/ medium heat. I got them with the chicken sandwich. The fried were good. Great choice. The chicken sandwich was good as well slightly drier then use to but good. The fries was where it's at.“

“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.“

“The staff is super friendly and gave us great recommendations for food and sauces. The food came out fast and all tasted great. Everything is super clean and the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend. We had sliders and mozzarella stix, everything was fresh and tasted great!“

“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“

“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.“

“chicken wings off the hook“

“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.“

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

“It’s so good and they’re survice😘“

“I’ve driven past this spot a million times, but today I finally pulled the trigger during the lunch rush. I went with the spicy chicken bowl, and it was a total standout. I’m usually not a fan of black beans, but these were actually packed with flavor. My palate usually feels pretty dull by midday, but this meal made me a believer again. Definitely worth the stop!“

“friendly atmosphere, good customer service and very clean“

“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... 😂“

“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.“

“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…“

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

“Food was great like always, but what really stood out was the service. The managing partner, Joe, was at the register and super friendly and genuinely welcoming.

The young lady running the dining area was on top of everything. Moving fast, keeping things clean, , checking on customers, helping people without missing a beat.

Honestly, the service overall felt like a 3 Michelin star experience.“

“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.“

“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! ❤️“

“I came to my nearest Waba Grill during my lunch break and to my surprise the place was empty (in a good way). The server, Eric greeted me with a huge smile and welcoming energy! He was very knowledgeable about the menu and overall had a positive attitude! Although restaurants can take a toll on employees due to customers it is very important to continue with the positive vibes and vibrant atmosphere. One person can change the entire outcome and with that being said, continue to applaud Eric and hire workers that resemble his energy! :)“

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

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

“My order here is always correct.“

“Great experience at WaBa Grill! The place was clean, the cashier was very nice, and the food was fresh and flavorful. We had shrimp, chicken, and tofu bowls—everything was delicious. The shrimp portion was good, just slightly shy of perfect, but still very satisfying. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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!!!“

“I decided to try this place as it was closer than another popular hot chicken place and I think this place does some things better than that one. The chicken and sauce were more flavorful here and I especially liked the slider. The other place did have much crispier fries though. Overall, I’d say it’s a good alternative, especially if you’re looking for halal chicken.“

“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.“

“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!“

“We come here all the time and the customer service is always great. My boyfriend always calls in his order and he’s very specific with his food. They never fail to abide by his requests like grilling without sauce and making the meat well done. Special thanks to Melissa and Eduardo for having great energy and making the customer experience an enjoyable one.“

“nice food! nice atmosphere! good service! clean and neat environment! fresh food!“

“Well I love Juan Pollo. But a week ago my husband went to pick up some food for us he said the cashier at as rude and was rushing him he ask about the family special and she was already ringing it. I'm saying this because she made him feel like if she was racist I'm Mexican and his African American I I do understand my husband I usually go with him but we had company at our home. CUSTOMER SERVICE is very very important.“

“Staffs are working hard during dinner time but they make sure customers get what their want and happy to do so. I am very happy this location. Making sure everyone aware about this place. Food is ok but the chocolate is the best. I couldn't refrain myself to finish the whole. I don't care about the apple deep fried, it used to be great.“

“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.“

“I tried ordering online but couldnt complete my order. Not realizing what time it was, I walked in one minute before closing. Thankfully Angie was so gracious and let us place a pretty big order despite the team already wrapping up for the night. They were fast, the food was delicious and Angie was so friendly and helpful. Great experience for someone who knows what great customer service and taking care of the guest looks like. Thank you so much!“

“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“

“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.“

“I ordered the grilled Skinny Chick - Hot as Cluck sandwich and it was literal perfection! The chicken was so fresh, seasoned perfectly, and tasted absolutely amazing. A huge thank you to Liz and Adriana for helping me with my order and making the sandwich the best yet. The customer service here is unmatched! This spot will definitely be in my weekly rotation now. Highly recommend!“

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

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

“Hands down my family’s favorite place to eat in La Verne — WaBa Grill! 🍚🔥

I’ve been to other WaBa Grill locations, but this La Verne location is extra, extra clean. The restaurant is always spotless, and the food is consistently fresh and delicious every time we visit.
What really makes it special is the amazing staff and owner. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming with a smile which makes the whole experience even better.

If you’re in La Verne and looking for a healthy, tasty meal, this spot is definitely a go to!!
Our favorite is the dumplings and the works! Beef and chicken combo. My kids loves it!!!“
