Chicken Shops near El Cerrito, CA

“Ellie, thank you so much for the great service.
We were initially disappointed that the syringe ran out for the fall out collab, but your attentiveness and care truly made our experience worthwhile. Everything was delicious, and you turned the moment around for us. We really appreciated it.“

“Great food and if you like hot, they’ve got it!“

“The chicken on point! I like the cheesling and the gangjeong sauce for my wings. Very pricy for 8 wings but delish! That crunch is what it needs to be 😆🤭 Very flavorful. Yall should get sum! Forgot to take photos before eating them lol Too good to worry about a phone!“

“Last Saturday we ordered a lot of food from the melt. The whole crew was working overtime and we all ordered multiple items and the crew absolutely killed it. Lady working the cashier was absolutely amazing. Sweetest lady ever. The cooks were amazing and they have a very good crew working. The only names I received were Mar, Janeka, Dom and Tone but everyone was incredible and we definitely will be back.“

“Everything I've brought home from Picnic was made with obvious exquisite quality and care! Their condiments are a boon to our meals, great rotisserie chickens, sandwiches, sides, everything! I get excited when my travels take me nearby and I've got time to go in!“

“My husband and I love the melt! Shout out especially to Gabby and V. Gabby is always on top of her game, she even remembers our order when we pick up and happily gives our extra pickles and ranch:) V is always outstanding in her customer service, filling any request with a genuine smile.
The food is always fast, hot and delicious and never wavers since we started going often in during the summer!“

“Tried it for the first time yesterday. We’ve walked by many times during lunch, thinking it was just another fast food chicken place…..finally gave it a try. It was excellent and staff was friendly. Chicken was fresh and crispy. They have many spice levels to choose from. Medium was plenty hot for me. The chicken tender was great, but the sliders were even better. Totally recommend this place!“

“Now that its near me, i am in trouble.“

“This place survived COVID and it's not easy to run a restaurant in SF.

Why? Food tastes good and the price is reasonable.

Try it out and taste it yourself!

Ideal for takeout, but they provide wipes as well.“

“Lunch at The Roost is one of our favorites in SF. As a pescatarian, this is actually the ONLY chicken I eat, anywhere - and it is delicious. The adobo seasoning is fabulous. Cole slaw has a unique flavor that I wish I could replicate at home. Do try the sweet potato croquettes, but leave room for their brown butter cookies!“

“Better than Seoul Sausage and they won the Great American Food Truck Race! Perfect balance of spice, sauce, and crunch. The outside is amazing and the Parmesan was a nice touch!“

“Wonderful food and friendly service; indoor/outdoor dining“

“Had to check out Cals tonight with some friends while on the town! The food was great! We got the Mac & Chicken and the Chicken sandwich’s. One thing to be aware about is the price. However for those more expensive items the portions are HUGE! Definitely a good place to stop while visiting Berkeley!“

“This place was so amazing!! Love the melt! Flew in from a ways away and tried this place for the first time. Kat went above and beyond with trying to help us look at the menu and gave us some of her favorite options! The food was DELICIOUS! I was happy I got what I paid for. Love it. Love it. Love it.“

“I wasn't quite sure what to expect coming to Lunette but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised with how good the meal was and will definitely be returning. I came with 2 other people at around 12:30pm on a Sunday and there was a super long line so we decided to order takeout so we wouldn't need to wait for a table to be seated but thankfully a large wooden table across the way from Lunette was open.

Items we ordered:
- KTPP - Pork Noodle Soup
- KTPP - Dry Noodle
- Loc Lak Salt + Pepper Beef
- Cha Kreung Spicy Lemongrass chicken (but no spice because the member of our party getting this dish can't handle spice)

All 4 dishes were pretty good but I think my favorite out of all of them was the Pork Noodle Soup though I thought that there were supposed to be pork rinds on top but it could have been due to the fact that we ordered ours to-go that there weren't any. The Dry noodle was interesting, I only had a bite of it but I'm more of a soup noodle type of person. Both the KTTP dishes had a bunch of black pepper which I personally loved. All of the dishes were pretty flavorful to the point of where you didn't feel like you needed additional condiments.

The price point is average for the Ferry building & SF area though the portion was a bit small. We were kind of assuming that hence ordering the 4th item to share. There were sauces also available inside which I'm not sure what they were but they were interesting in a good way because I wasn't expecting them to be sour/tangy.

~~Return: Yes“

“This is honestly the best place to satisfy my craving for great Chinese food. I have visited plenty of times and have never grown tired of eating there. The broccoli chicken with steamed rice is simply the best, and the ingredients are always cooked to perfection. I clean my plate every time, down to the last grain of rice, as the portion sizes are just right. The price can't be beat. Plus the owners are super friendly. I will happily visit again!“

“RT rotisserie doesn't need my praise..... it seem like they have at least two possibly a third coming, up and down oak st. So they're doing things right and I just wanted to add my two cents. I got the pork belly bowl with the chimmy sauce. Cooked rice, cooked pork belly cubes, fresh mild raw an pickeled vegetables sliced and shredded of course sauce of your choice. It was just thrown together in a bowl. But here's the thing, every bite was to my liking how do they do that? Makes me think they know what they're doing.“

“人生吃過最好吃的士林大雞排，竟然不是在士林！是在柏克萊！好吃到爆炸！爆汁！皮超脆粉超好吃！瘋掉！ 葡萄柚綠茶裡面有葡萄柚本人！超好喝！它們家是用有機茶～成本比一般的飲料店貴兩倍～烏梅汁也超好喝很濃～ 旁邊的貢茶不只奶蓋是我喝過美國最好喝，裡面賣的雞蛋仔超級好吃！滿滿的紅豆抹茶 日本麻糬鬆餅好吃到，回台灣開都會爆的那種！“

“Great chicken sandwiches! The curly fries are decent but unremarkable, and were mostly small pieces. The interior music is loud and the bass is cranked up, so eat at the outside tables to take your food to the park across the street. Not a fan of the 5% fee on top of taxes, just show us the real prices please!“

“Lemme tell you dude this place is like walking into a candy store as an abnormally large child. Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing atmosphere with the birds everywhere. Let me tell you though, taking a bit of that food is like a virgin getting some for the first time. Single best meatball I've ever tasted in my 18 years of existence. One of the best pizzas I've ever had. The second if not first best bowl of spaghetti I've ever had. If I was an inmate at Alcatraz I'd escape it just to ear here. Felt like I was dining in what a dude named Sal would call heaven. Definitely recommend , definitely coming back next time I'm in this city.“
