“from the moment we waked in we received great service! Jamal was so welcoming, asked if we wanted recommendations and we did .. we ordered what he recommended and it was amazing! everything was filling. we ordered the crimson (medium) & joey eat fries (mild) . i don’t do spicy, so medium was a bit much for me, so i would advise mild if you’re like me. The dressings and pickles helped me! also overall A+ definitely coming back!“

“My friends and I came down to LA from the bay area and we stopped by for lunch. The man at the counter was really chill and hospitable and gave us recommendations on the menu. I got the chicken tenders with mac. The mac and cheese was so good, super cheesy. The tenders were super crunchy and seasoned well. My friend really liked the chipotle ranch. Portions were huge, especially the loaded mac buffalo chicken bowl. Would come again!“

“Best Chicken in all of town. Extra Spicy is always a perfect blend of almost too hot and not hot enough. This location always delivers. Shout out to Johnathan. He's been working here for the longest and always has top tier customer service. Johnathan for manager. Dave's Hot Chicken for the trophy 🏆 Enjoy.“

“honestly my favorite hot chicken spot. super glad to have one within 5 minutes of me!“

“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!“

“I showed up at 10:09. It opened at 10:00 and already had 2 people at a table and 4 in line ahead of me. I ordered the Yaho Special with salmon substitute and shrimp. Both the grilled salmon and shrimp were wonderful. I'll definitely be coming back here the next time I'm craving grilled salmon or shrimp.“

“I recently ordered from Jollibee and had a great experience.

The place was very clean, and the size of the restaurant felt just right—not too big and not too small. Even though the location was busy with customers, the staff still managed everything well and the place did not feel neglected.

I ordered online for takeout, and my order was ready as soon as I arrived, which made the process very smooth and convenient. I didn’t have to stay long at all.

And of course, Chickenjoy is still the best fried chicken—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and always delicious.

Overall, a great experience with fast service, a clean environment, and amazing food. Highly recommended! 👍🍗“

“buen servicio de atención“

“Friendly customer service. Fresh Hot Food“

“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! 😁“

“I love Pop's Chicken. The establishment is always clean and inviting. The staff is kind and respectful. They smile!! The food is fresh and the price is reasonable. I had succulent chicken, marinated, grilled to perfection. Soft rice and tasty beans. So good! I also had macaroni salad and creamy Cole slaw. The salsa was prepared with experience, I must say. It had the right measure of spice to compliment my chicken. Yummy. Thanks for the love Pop's Chicken❣️❣️“

“El mejor pollo y burritos y tacos“

“We were recommended to this place by some friends, so we decided to give it a try. We walked in and were immediately greeted, asked if we knew what we wanted. We said we needed a coyote of minutes, but the gentleman said no problem, but answered some questions we had. We ordered the chicken skins, hush puppies and the #1 with light meat (breast and a wing with potato wedges and a roll). The hush puppies were so flavorful, no need for a dipping sauce. The chicken skins were huge and also very flavorful. I finally got to my chicken because it was so hot, I'm not sure because I had the other stuff, but the chicken wasn't as flavorful as the other stuff I had. The potato wedges were good, very hot as well. We will be back! Good value for what you get!“

“I had a great experience at Jollibee today! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and my order came out quickly. The Chickenjoy was crispy and juicy, and the Jolly Spaghetti hit the spot as always. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained. Always a pleasure coming here—feels like home!“

“I got the double smash burger with jalapeños added, which is a great tip because you get the freshness and the heat but also that way you get the grilled onions and pickle.
This place is my new favorite place to get a Smashburger from( give it a full 10/10.
The burger was super flavorful !!!
The guy manning the business in the mourning was personable and had great customer service skills. The burger had a lot of flavor great ratios of meat, cheese, onions, and bread wasn’t too bready. The fries are solid lightly seasoned. I personally like a little more but you can always add more but can’t take it off so I get it. I’m going to come back and try the chicken, can’t wait. Props to the owner . wish much success for all entrepreneurs who take pride in their craft. 💪✌️“

“The owners are incredibly kind and genuinely sweet people. You can feel the care they put into their food and their customers the moment you walk in.
The food is always FRESH, flavorful, and so satisfying. If you’re ordering for the first time (or even the tenth), get the Gangnam Style, it’s a must! Perfect balance of crispy, saucy, and absolutely addictive.
So happy to have this place in the neighborhood. Highly recommend! 🍗🔥“

“AMAZING! We will be back! The employees were so wonderful and kind to myself and my family, and the food was delicious! Huge portions as well! We will be back!“

“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.“

“the food is amazing and testing is great 👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

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

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

“Great price for their combo meals.

We got 2 order of the combo wings. The combo comes with 1 medium size pizza, 12 wings, and 1 liter soda of choice.

You’re able to choose 2 sauces for the wings and we got mango habanero, lemon pepper, honey garlic, and something else. For the pizza, we got bulgogi and Hawaiian.

On top of that I ordered the dumpling and rice cake soup which was pretty good. However, there were only like 6 dumplings and lots of rice cake that couldn’t be finished. Towards the end of the soup, it started getting a bit saltier as well.

The price you pay for the amount of food you get is decent. Flavors are good as well. I think the only complaint is that they drench their chicken in sauce which isn’t my preference when eating Korean fried chicken.“

“Amazing food! I drove from Long Beach to Anaheim for the food and it did not disappoint. The chicken was moist and the potatoe salad is the best ever! I first tried Juan Pollo a few weeks ago and a colleague bought chicken for our staff. Today we returned the favor and got some b for ourselves. Amazing! Try the cayenne dressing. It’s good.“

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

“I’ve never been to this place because the area always scared me but I wish I came here sooner!! This place has one of the best tasting chicken in the area it was so good and the fries were pretty decent. The staff were friendly and give you large portions whenever you want Chinese food so that’s dope! It’s just a shame the area brings the place down.“

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

“The food was so good!!! And lots of food for the price :)“

“Hands down the BEST chicken I’ve ever had! The flavor is unmatched—juicy, perfectly seasoned, and always cooked to perfection. Every bite tastes fresh and delicious. The sides are just as good, and the portions are generous, so you definitely get your money’s worth. The staff is super friendly and the service is always quick, which makes the whole experience even better. Whether you dine in or take it to go, the quality is always consistent. If you’re craving chicken, this is THE spot—you won’t be disappointed!“

“Small takeout restaurant.
Serves a good value meal of steamed chicken plus flavorful rice. Think of Hainan chicken.
Quite tasty and tender chicken including a trio of sauces that enhance the taste, I was told my the server that it’s best to mix them.
Beef dish available as well as a garlic noodles option.“

“Ciro!!! Wow! I want to take a moment to recognize an outstanding employee at Dave's Hot Chicken, Artesia, CA branch, Ciro!!! From the very first time we visited, Ciro stood out with his exceptional service and genuine positivity. He is consistently polite, respectful, and radiates a welcoming energy that truly enhances the customer experience.

Ciro goes above and beyond in everything he does. Whether it’s during a rush or a calm moment, he remains calm, efficient, and professional. He handles pressure like a pro. Always with a smile, never missing a beat. It’s rare to encounter someone who brings that level of dedication and grace under stress.

Employees like Ciro are rare gems. I strongly believe that he should not only be recognized but rewarded. He is exactly the kind of team member that any business would be lucky to have.

He truly deserves a promotion and continued recognition for his outstanding contributions. Thank you, Ciro, for being consistently amazing!“

“Praise YAHUAH the LORD and His Son Yahusha HaMashiach Messiah Jesus Christ and the Ruach HaKodesh Holy Spirit!!!

Great crispy chicken, Juicy, not tinny pieces, and fresh.

The fish, nice and flavored, crispy if asked well well done, tasty and fresh.

Fries are standard fish fry, I always ask for extra seasoning on all the food.“

“I recently stumbled upon this fantastic little spot on the corner, and I had to share. It's a real hidden gem! I highly recommend their number 1 – it's delicious and the price is incredible. It's comparable to Papi Que Rico in terms of quality / taste. They have parking! Definitely worth a try.“

Their $10.99 dinner special—half a chicken with two sides and tortillas—is an unbeatable deal. Absolutely amazing!!!“
