27 Best Chicken Restaurants near Fair Oaks

“Great service by Isaiah! The perfect quick meal after a long day. Food was ready fast, and was delicious. Isaiah had a friendly attitude and was helpful for someone’s first time visiting Dave’s Hot Chicken! I will definitely be coming back“

“I went with my nephews and sister in-laws. The place was clean, the cashier was friendly and super helpful and knowledable about the spice levels. I was scared and went with one medium and one mild. The medium wasn't bad at the all. I may try a medium and hot next time. I believe my nephews got super hot and the cashier told us that was around ghost pepper spice 😬 their mouths were burning 🥵 I wont go too spicy because then you cant enjoy your food and taste it. The little sliders are filling and comes with fries and sauce. It's delicious. And dont forget to order a drink! They do NOT come with the meals you order.... and their ice is AMAZING, small little crunchy ice.“

“May God have mercy on my bank account. This place has some of the best fries I have ever had and the fried chicken is both moist and flavorful. The service is excellent as well and the staff are incredible. My only wish is that the chicken had a crispier breading, but other than that, this place is beyond amazing.“

“Living in Carmichael for about year and a half, after living in Chicago (.a place that knows a little bit about chicken wings), this is my go to place for chicken wings. Not whole like Chicago.“

“Von’s Chicken in Rancho Cordova is such a great find! The chicken is always hot, crispy, and full of flavor — you can really taste the quality and freshness. The Soy Garlic and Original Crispy are my go-tos, but the Hot & Spicy hits the spot when you want a little extra kick. Don’t skip the baked chicken as it’s perfect if you want something lighter but still packing tons of flavor.

The sides and starters are just as good — especially the cheeseballs and sodduck sodduck. Portions are generous, and even the takeout stays crunchy and delicious.

The staff here are super friendly and attentive — they take the time to explain the different sauces and flavors, and it’s clear they care about their customers having a great experience.

Overall, Von’s Chicken is consistently excellent — fresh, flavorful, and served with genuine hospitality. Definitely one of my favorite go-to spots in Rancho Cordova!“

🔥 Carolina Reaper

Scoville Heat Units (SHU) Notes
Carolina Reaper 1,641,183 – 2,200,000+ SHU

Was told only 1 or 2 persons try it out each month
Guess my name entered into their record books.
It’s the hottest burger I’ve ever had. Had the fountain coke coming in to cool me down.
But in the end accomplished the “been there done that.”
Very clean ambience and professionally run. Must try them out to become one of the regulars.“

“Amazing Food with exceptional customer service!“

“Shout out to Elijah!!! We so appreciated his help tonight. Thank you!! Tonight my family and I used the app to pick up food in the drive thru. We had an email allowing us a free chicken sandwich when you use the app. We don't eat out often so this was a treat for us. My husband had already used the app, so this was his second time in the app to get the free sandwich with our order. When we picked up our food, two of the young workers couldn't help us with this promotion, so we spoke with the manager. She also said sorry we can't help you! We were at the window and received our order, but had to order another item as the chicken sandwich was going to be my husband dinner and we wouldn't receive it. While we were trying to get this order going another young man came up to the window to help us! He heard about the situation and honored the free Chicken sandwich promotion. Everyone was kind regardless of the situation. We love this location and because of Elijah, we left happy customers.“

“very friendly service and my food got to me still hot. I will return“

“This a real Korean fried chicken. It pricey but you will never expect the taste of these magic fried chick !! It is so addictive writing comments make me so hungry this place reminds me of Korean k-drama place where u sit and eat those friends chick with your crush !! ^v^
Recommended green onion soy flavor , sweet honey butter powder .“

“Mariana was great!! Helped me set up the app and was informative with some of the new additions. The chicken pieces are still the size of Cornish game hens (nothing new there 🙄) and was very disappointed with the potato poppers and apple pie poppers. Not enough apple pie filling, and the 5 (not 6 as advertised) potatoes were dry and puffless.“

“I recently tried the chicken sliders and chicken sandwiches at Chik N Guys and they were seriously impressive. The chicken was incredibly crispy on the outside while still being juicy and tender inside, which is exactly what you want from a good fried chicken sandwich. The seasoning was on point too, with a perfect balance of flavor without being overwhelming.

The sliders were great because they let you try different flavors without feeling too heavy. Each one had that same crunchy, fresh chicken and soft buns that held everything together nicely. The full chicken sandwiches were just as good, stacked generously and really satisfying.

You can tell the ingredients are fresh and that they actually care about the quality of what they’re serving. The portions are solid, the flavors are bold, and everything tasted freshly made. If you’re a fan of crispy chicken sandwiches or sliders, Chik N Guys is definitely worth checking out.“

“Yesterday I stopped by the KFC at 3551 Bradshaw Rd and bought 16 pieces, but they forgot to add a small fries to my order. I called the store today and Antonio's assistant manager answered. He told me to come to the store and he would replace it. When I got to the store, he replaced it and gave me a chocolate cake. I really liked Antonio's service.“

“I always come here and love brining my friends and family along. The food is delicious, and the team is so kind and helpful - they make every visit feel warm and welcoming. you can tell they really care about their customers, and that positive energy makes this place special. Little acts of kindness like that really stand out these days !“

“Our first time and it was wing Wednesday. Amazing deals! I had the boneless wings and they were so crispy and tender and juicy. My husband had the bone in and also said they were really good. The loaded tater tots were fun. Can't wait to go back and mix up some new flavor combos!“

“I came to the drive thru and they were very respectful they were patient and very responcful they made the food well with everything in it and they done it fast im happy with my order.“

“I came here specifically to compare Raising Cane's with Popeye's Louisiana Kitchen. I rate them the same. Raising Cane's pressure cooked chicken was juicier, but Popeyes had seven Great sauces, which were all better then canes.“

“Best Popeyes on the planet! Thank you April for packing our order just right and thank you for singing happy birthday to my husband. You have the voice of an 😇!!!“

“Excellent food! I got the chicken tenders and tots. Nice big chunks of chicken that were perfectly moist. They served a huge portion of tots. Tons of different dipping sauces to choose from. With the decent prices, good quality and quantity of food that is custom cooked as you wait, this place blows the big chicken chains away. Highly recommend!“

“amazing experience!! way better than the other ones i’ve ever been to!! very kind customer service! love to see the smiles!! thank you so much for giving me the best 30 mins of my life! definitely coming back!! 10/10 best chicken ever! felt like i was eating my dream meal!!“

“I went around 6pm and got a leg and thigh and biscuit. The biscuit was hot, soft, buttery, flaky, sugary, fluffy diabesity (diabetes and obesity in one!) deliciousness and the chicken was hot, juicy, salty, tender, crunchy, krispy diabesity so definitely worth the $6 I paid! I look forward to eating again! It is in a gas station so takeout only but this is some seriously good chicken!“

“I do believe this is some of the best cooked fried Chicken that you can get on this side of the mississippi. It is very lackadaisical day when I find myself searching for something that I already know exists and that is the the best and I being a bodybuilder must have chicken in my system so the minute I find myself perusing other option options I just jump back on my mind's eye and remember the moist crispy thing we call in loo zee Anna matisto tha top top hatop mu dunzo muh teesto or in English don't let them eat just cake give them some crumbs p don't forget to save me some from the back door p ...king Louie had a sense of being able to hire the best poultry Cooks in all of which when he founded Saint Louisiana Crystal mi he was there for in the head of his time letting the Creole and the jazz and this world do their thing and that's the favorite of all the passions when it comes down to it because if you didn't know it a piece of chicken that has all of that on the outside and you haven't even gotten to the inside yet and You're still Loving it goodness gracious Little Richard would have said that was my idea but don't let him fool you it was King Louis second wife's cousins and nephews daughter-in-law that sounded the whole recipe and and then they brought it over to the USA now I don't have time to get into all the but if you have any questions just Google it anyway it's a beautiful beautiful experience do so go there the help are beautiful and the machines are clean thanks to your Louisiana 697246 generated oxygenator which helps make sure everything is the way it should be not the way it imagined“

“It was my first time coming here and the food and service here was phenomenal kyle was taking good care of everyone and me as well during rush hour even when they were busy my food came fresh and well cooked will be coming back very soon love the atmosphere here if your in the area try this place and give it a rating i love it here!!“

“As always my food was fresh and delicious. Service was amazing as well in both drive thru and lobby. They spoke clearly and politely, gave all the sauces I asked for, and packed all the food nicely. Definitely a 10/10 restaurant with lively people.“

“Food was overpriced but tasted alright. I wanted to comment on the staff, however. My food took forever only because a woman came in and asked them a slew of stupid questions and held up the line. But the staff was very accommodating and kind to her even though she was being difficult. Thank you for having good service!“
