Chicken Shops near Escondido, CA

“First time checking out this location, and it is a massive upgrade compared to the Mira Mesa spot! The place is super bright, modern, and has a huge dining area with plenty of seating. They also have self-ordering kiosks, which makes things really quick.

A special shoutout to Emiliano for the fantastic service—we were greeted the second we walked through the door. While we were there, he was super patient helping another customer who had never been to a Dave’s before, even recommending meals based on how hungry they were.

On top of that, the location is super convenient right off the freeway, and parking in the shopping center was a breeze. Definitely coming back to this location from now on!“

“Great place with fresh food, a clean interior and excellent customer service. We have been coming for 7 years and I stand by everything I said. The last time we purchased a 12 piece chicken meal, the chicken was far too salty, but that was a first. We love their coleslaw, Mac and cheese and fresh salsas. The prices are pretty steep for the family meals, so be sure to keep an eye out for coupons that come in the mail. Also, download their app in order to get rewards.“

“I love the salads 🥗 always fresh“

“The food and service were amazing! This was my first time trying this place and the girl in the front recommended the garlic chicken and potato trio. They were delicious and some of the best I’ve ever had! I didn't get her name but she had braids and it seemed like she was doing everything such as taking orders, making the food, and serving it. All things considered, this place is definitely worth waiting for and I will be returning!“

“Great post on Escondido Friends acknowledging the great customer service one lady provides! Worth checking out!“

“The food is awesome, was a couple dollars short and the cashier said don't worry about it... Very friendly, very clean, awesome customer service.... Yes I rang the bell......“

“There’s two KFC locations that I go to and this is one of them. It’s completely located across from foods where I sometimes go shop. I’ve been inside the store through the drive-through and no matter which way I go. I always get excellent customer service, quick service, hot food, and everything about the place is clean. You can tell a lot about a place by how they keep their bathrooms, and the bathroom were clean. So I highly recommend this location for good food. Good servers from good people.“

“Love this place!!! Always great food!!! 😋😋😋“

“This store is always clean inside and out. The drive-thru moves along quickly. The employees are generally friendly and helpful, but I have observed that they are usually short one or two staff members, in order to provide great customer service.
However, I understand that business levels are down everywhere, and this is simply a wave for the store to minimize labor costs. Having said that, the employees are hardworking and get the job done, nonetheless.
Only four stars for food because it's still fast food. So while it's not healthy, it delivers on its promise.“

“We just picked up a curbside order and the member who brought out the order was so kind , had the biggest smile ever .“

“The little girl/lady that helped me and my son was amazing. I wish that every place I ate at had someone like her. Promotion is needed for her. I'm sorry that I didn't get her name, but she was definitely the best. The food was good too.“

“Awesome and kid friendly ❤️“

“Loved the food here, as any other Chick-fil-A I’ve gone to! Only complaint I have is that the portions were so small for my breakfast bowl. Only 4 strips of sausage in the whole bowl? Wild considering how much it cost. But over place was clean, staff were nice. The bathrooms were kinda dirty and smelled but I let the workers know at the front. Quick question though: who is Kirk and how did he get a sign here? So funny haha“

“Compared to other fast food places a plus. I used to go to Taco Bell, but once I went to El Pollo, I never went back. The EPL food is packed with healthy ingredients. Taco Bell, not so much. My only complaint about EPL is the food is always hot, especially the Tacos.“

“Enjoyed the grand opening. Food and service was great. Always been a fan of crinkle french fries. Chicken was the best. Welcome to San Marcos.“

“thank God for Pollo Loco I was driving around a little bit of cash you guys keep it real my burrito bowl was $13 every other place around here or especially in California is $18-$20 it’s ridiculous you guys keep it real with fresh ingredients this was a clean establishment everyone was friendly I’ll keep coming back“

“We always love El Pollo Loco. Today, my son got the burrito kids' meal, and I had the Street Corn Salad. I love the generous portion size on the salad; I saved half for another meal later. My son loves the mashed potatoes. We splurged and got drinks today as well. The Mango Lime Aguas Frescas is my favorite. I appreciate that they have the updated bench seats at this location, too.“

“We visited this location for dinner on 5/13, and it didn't disappoint. The food was hot, freshly prepared, and very tasty. Our cashier, Jeffrey, provided incredible customer service. He was kind, considerate, and extremely helpful. With great food and a wonderful staff, we'll definitely be back soon. Highly recommend!“
