46 Best Chicken Restaurants near Cupertino

“This was our 2nd time to buy their Hainanese chicken rice. The chicken is always cooked well. The rice, although flavorful and tasty is again dry and almost hard. I poured a little of the clear soup that came with it to moisten it a little. Their sauce containers are too small. I’d pay more for the option for a bigger sauce container. The carrots were well soaked in the vinegar dressing but this time, the cucumbers were left unsoaked in dressing. They were tasteless in contrast to the carrots. They were marinated in dressing last time. Did someone forget?“

“This place is the best late night food in south San Jose. Can’t believe it took me this long to find it: 10/10. reminds me of North Carolina fried hot chicken. Especially with the banana pudding desserts with 3 diff flavor options!“

“Great food! We will definitely be back!“

“Excellent service, amazing and delicious food. Highly recommended!“

“I went to Dave’s hot chicken I ordered my food didn’t look at it until I got home and got someone else order but I wouldn’t go back because it was a 30 minute drive was upset bout not getting what I paid for.“

“Delicious. The Yorker burger was so satisfying.“

“Chicken sandwich of course....“

“Great fried chicken spot. They also have a lovely vegetarian burger with impossible meat and avocado. Highly recommend to try both at least once. Twice are best.

Upd: forgot to mention a milk shakes, my favs strawberry with a real peaces of strawberry and vanilla - just a solid classic with a real ice cream.

Vegetarian options: Impossible burger with Avocado is a must have!“

“So far I’ve been to the new location in Chesterfield, MO. Tastes just like the one on N Western, (iykyk) amazing!!“

“I've eaten at Halal Fried Chicken a number of times and I can easily say I love this place. The options they have are delicious(my personal favorite is hot chicken 🍗 and chicken popcorn They have other options on the menu along with specia the location. Services is very friendly. This place is a definite must try.“

“I got the single patty cheeseburger combo and nugs combo with a side of Mac and cheese. I think the nugs combo is a good bang for your buck because they give such a large amount of nuggets and fries. They taste delicious with honey and their special sauce and were fried to perfection. I enjoyed their cheeseburger as well and would get it again!
Just a heads up for anyone who orders the chicken salad, my best friend got it and it was a whole bunch of nuggets with what appeared to be a small amount of spring mix underneath and a side of ranch. She was a bit disappointmented, but she wanted a lighter meal, but it was too heavy for her.“

“I ordered to go soy garlic and original spicy when I got home it didn’t seem like the order was correct. I didn’t receive the soy garlic it looked like it was was just original. Sad the order was incorrect tried to call but no one answered. But overall the chicken was crispy.“

“We had a delightful experience at starbird Sunnyvale..What a delicious meal, plentiful food and great price. We ordered the Tzatziki salad, the boneless chicken wings, the corn and fries. We definitely will be going back. Loved the option to pre-order and have my meal ready when we arrived.“

“Ordered through door dash. Food quality is the same as vons at Sunnyvale.
I used to visit that store in Sunnyvale location before this location opens up. I am glad that opened one here local! Epic parking lot, more space than the one in Sunnyvale.
Staff are friendly and helpful.“

“I just got some to go chicken tenders and fries here for the first time at the Palo Alto location and it was delicious! Everything was so good, I loved the house sauce as well. I would highly recommend, and I'm pretty picky about my food.“

“A Top Contender for Korean Fried Chicken Lovers

This restaurant is currently one of the highest-rated fried chicken spots on delivery apps like Uber Eats and DoorDash—and it’s easy to see why once you try the food.

I visited around 6:00 PM on a Friday, right during their peak hours, and the experience was well worth it. The fried chicken is full of flavor and clearly made fresh to order.

What sets this place apart is the incredible variety of chicken options:
• Prefer your chicken with or without sauce? No problem.
• Sauce lovers can choose from a wide range including cheddar and yangnyeom.
• Want something less greasy? They offer eight oven-baked chicken options.
• Like it spicy? Choose your heat level: Mild, Medium, Hot, or XXXHot.

They also have a generous selection of Korean side dishes like kimbap and tteokbokki, and if you’re craving cheese, the Cheese Buldak won’t disappoint.

Not a meat eater? You might be in the wrong place, but they’ve got you covered too—with fancy ramyun machines and a bunch of customizable noodle toppings (egg, sausage, cheese, etc.).

I also found it refreshing that they use larger drumsticks. Many fried chicken spots go for smaller ones, which often cook and season better. But this restaurant’s use of larger drumsticks offers a nice variety—and they work. They’re coated in a thick layer of batter and drenched in sauce, which adds bold flavor and rich texture that stands out from other places.

The fried chicken here tends to be on the softer side with a thicker batter that soaks up the sauce well—something you might love or dislike depending on your preference.

The flavor, however, is consistently great, and I was especially impressed by the huge selection. Compared to chains like B.B.Q Chicken, this spot offers much more variety, giving it a strong competitive edge.“

“Im a tourist from England where every KFC were clean and good services. It was my first time in this area and I was really craving KFC and bloody hell this place was good despite it being small the worker were nice and the food was surprisingly delicious. Would come back here again !“

“what makes this unique is that it's HALAL and tastes sooooo clean and fresh. i love it“

“I went here for lunch today and I definitely enjoyed it. I had the fried shrimp and the chicken rice ball. The fried shrimp was very crispy, but it could have been seasoned better. It had a nice dipping sauce, so I’ll give it a 7.4. The chicken rice ball was very nice. It was on sale today for 2.00. For that price, it is huge. It is fried nicely and the chicken is flavorful. The honey mustard on the side was also flavorful. However, it was a little oily, but I’ll still give it a 9/10. The lady at the front counter was one of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. Service is 10/10. I would definitely recommend this if you want some good fried bites.“

“I had a slider but I chose medium, I'm gonna go up a spice on my next visit. it was delicious though“

“Yes!!!!! This place is amazing!!! We are visiting San Jose from Colorado and we found Starbird. We have nothing like this in Colorado. Starbird, please come to Denver! I have five kids and a wife and we got a few entrees and split them (sandwich, tenders, salad, etc). We are LOVING this food! The workers are so nice too!! There is good music, great good, we are in the zone and we are loving this! The food is legit amazing.

Thank you Starbird!“

“Fried chicken combo is delicious“

“Loved the food!! First time“

“Great food, great service!“

“The best chicken hands down. Everyone I've shown this place is blown away that it's as good as it is at a gas station. Don't be fooled by that. I heard awhile back how truckers were all about it and know where to find this grub.“

“The food is good as well as the crews“

“El sabor está muy rico lo único que una de mis ordenes no era lo que pedí, lo de más todo bien ( chequeen du orden siempre) 😀“

“40 minutes drive to try this out and it was definitely worth it. Great flavor, friendly and appreciative guy taking orders. Food came out hot fresh and fast“

“Love the sandwiches here, especially the flipped chicken one. The salads are great and the dressing is delicious.The fried chicken dinner was great too, though the biscuit was a bit dry (still tasty though). The sauce it was served with was super good and spicy.It’s a little pricey but they have a decent rewards system and often send coupons via text if you sign up. It’s probably the best chicken you can get late night in the peninsula, and the location is pretty easy to get to. Plus I love that you can get anything from their multiple in-house restaurants in the same order. Would definitely recommend!“

“I have had a bad experience at this location before. I didn't come back for months.Total change. Fast service, my order was accurate, the lady doing cashier was also directing the workers. Will be back again. Almost stopped coming here but my recent visit changed that ty!“

“I love Local Kitchens and Proposition Chicken is one of our go-to places to order from.Fries are crispy and tasty and our kids love the chicken strips - frankly, I quite enjoy them also :)It's always consistent, crispy and super comforting.“

“great place. There was a hiccup in my order. The manager and staff was able to fix the issue in a professional manner. I have been a customer for KFC for 20 years. I am new to this city. This location is smaller than others but it is very clean. Im happy they were able to make it right for me.“

“This fried chicken was so good!! All white meat, boneless and skinless. The breading is SO well seasoned and there’s lots of it to crunch on! I ordered the tenders, which were real pieces of chicken and not in uniformed, machine-cut shapes. I got a biscuit with my dish which was totally legit based on the southern cooking I’ve had in past. Steaming hot and moist. Not buttery so possibly made with lard. I had veggies for a side to try to ease my guilt for all the other calories. Those were definitely fresh, seasoned, and varied. Our table wasn’t clean but I didn’t care after walking around for 8 hours with two boys.“

“BEST Chicken in the World!!“

“k1 very cheap and the Monday/ Tuesday promo“

“I would like to compliment the customer service that I received at this KFC restaurant. Viviana is very professional and always interacts with her customers with a positive attitude.

My family and I have been a customer of this KFC location for many years due to the excellent customer service from Viviana & team, along with the consistently good food.“

“I have NEVER tasted chicken tenders as awesome as the ones I had at this Popeye's! Enormous portion - I ate lunch here & was so full I didn't need to eat until the next day! When I am back in this area i will make it a point to eat here again!“

“Went there for lunch ?. I haven't been there in over 2 years. The chicken ?was just as delicious as I remember. I had the 3 piece meal original recipe chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy and a biscuit. And a small drink. The employees were so friendly the cashier gave me a senior discount. That was very nice of him. I think I will be going back for dinner in a couple of days ?. Thank You KFC ?? your chicken is so delicious I just love it. I would give you more stars ?if I could. You deserve 10 stars ?. Thank you again. My name is MARY.“

“It’s THE BEST chick n I’ve ever had if you’ve never tried it I suggest you find them and get you some!!!!!!“

“I’d like to give a 5 star review to Valeria who was very good at upselling me on the new deep fried strawberry cream poppers. Unfortunately there were none available to me at the time which (had to wait like 25 min) is probably indicative of how good they are. Will try them next time“
