Chicken Shops near Fountain Valley, CA

“I’ve been eating at this location for a couple years now and the food is always good. However, today the food was prepared exceptionally well and we loved everything that we had. There were also some new items which was a nice surprise. The employees were very friendly and helpful. St the last minute, I added some additional items and the items came out quicker than expected.“

“Tried this gem for the first time today! Fall off the bone chicken and salmon Alfredo with fresh vegetables was delicious. The staff was friendly and gracious. Definitely a new favorite!“

“Best chicken and best sauce!“

“Drive thru today. Quick ordering. My bucket of chicken, cole slaw, and biscuits were ready without much delay. Chicken and slaw were tasty, no issues.
Price. No more pre-pandemic, pre $20/hr wage specials like $5 meals. Everything's $10-15 for a fried chicken meal, and bucket meals $30-50~. Bucket deal on 12 piece was $20 today, $30~ with a large cole slaw and 2 biscuits.“

“This location has great service. I was helped by Art and he was super helpful and patient with my large order. They got everything correct and my family was happy and satisfied. This is my new go to location for sure thanks to Art and the team.“

“Best Tacos in Town! Love this place for tacos and burritos!“

“El pollo está muy rico lo recomiendo.“

“My brother recommended this place since him and his team from the office come here for lunch often and it definitely is the real deal! The loaded fries were perfect and the chicken sandwiches themselves are what I'd hope a crispy chicken sandwich would be, also the Texas toast is top notch, 5 stars for sure!“

“Never had hunan chicken before I tried it here. The sauce over the juicy chicken and the ginger rice was absolutely delicious. Broth was super good as was the salad. 10/10 highly recommended if you like simple authentic Chinese food without the unhealthy American twist. Was ready super quick. And the Thai iced tea was really good as well.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“Eileen was very helpful and responsive. She gave us her recommendations, was very kind. The store itself was really clean, including their bathroom. We ordered takeout but came out fresh and fast!! The mozzarella sticks are back and awesome!“

“was amazing. First. Moist fried 🍗. Mom and Pop place. check them out..“

“Great food n exceptional service. Definitely Recommend it if you’re in mood for some great burger and wings“

“First memorable bbq chicken experience in the states ever ! Especially compared to the one in Jamboree I usually go to. The guy working morning on September 29th deserves a raise or something. He was in there all by himself, was very kind to us, and our chicken tasted amazing !! This will be my go to bbq from now on highly recommend.“

“Great food. Super nice staff. Thank you. When they say it’s spicy believe them. Dare is almost unbearable. I wouldn’t dare try the double dare. Soooo good.“

“Thank you so much to the staff!

We arrived during the last 25 minutes before closing, and we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. The staff took the time to explain the menu and help us with our choices

Thank you again for such a wonderful experience. We will definitely be back earlier next time 😊🫶“

“Me gusta el comer afuera y está muy acogedor“

“Absolutely loved this place so good I forgot to get a snap of the food, I went for the lemon pepper and it does taste like LEMON I love lemon so the taste was perfect for me the chicken if juicy and soft, then wings and popcorn chicken were great but the wings are my favorite“

“Do yourself a favor, go let Juliet serve you the best damn mozzarella sticks you'll ever have. And the best damn chicken you put in your mouth. The kitchen crew are top-tier and it went a game lets out at Anaheim stadium they know how to rock it out with kindness and Grace.
Seriously though Juliet's awesome go see her“

“Love the food here. Their Fried chicken is really good. Owner is very nice a well.“

“I have been on an elimination diet for 11 months (AIP) and have had to give up eating out because no one serves anything I can have without completely changing the menu item! Chixy Natural’s Paleo Bowl was absolutely delicious! Such simple and yummy ingredients! Best of all, I didn’t have to cook it myself. We will be going there again!“

“I drive out of my way for this Pollo Loco location specifically! The manager is an amazing lead-by-example type, and the whole staff is knowledgeable, great at customer service, and the food is always made to perfection. Thank you for always providing a wonderful experience; customer service like this is rare to find these days! 🤩“

“Longtime listener, first time caller. First off, Cynthia took my order and she was fantastic, offering her personal faves to try; which, I got the honey garlic boneless wings and the cheese sticks 🤤 MOUTH WATERING!!! And even though it was supposedly the busiest time of the day, got it out super quick and even walked it over to our table!!! 12/10 WILL RETURN!!!“

“I would give this place 4.5 stars just for the chicken alone. It is extremely crispy and juicy, and it's not oily at all (like many fried chicken joints)

I would say the service isn't phenomenal. I think it must depend on the person who is working. I came in yesterday (Friday) and a lady with short hair was slightly careless, but nothing too horrible. I would still come back for the fried chicken.

The reason for the 4 stars on food is because of the western carbonara. I am convinced they must've forgot the salt or any other seasonings, but they definitely did not forget the cheese or cream, because it was creamy -- maybe too creamy. It would be way better if they added salt and pepper because that was the blandest pasta I've ever had. I had to add my own seasonings.

But nonetheless the fried chicken is really yummy. I would recommend the chicken with secret sauce (which tastes like orange chicken)“

“Got my food at the Newport Location. Much smaller location, a few tables, better for pick-up. Other than that, the food is wonderful! Got the Dave Bites w/ Fries. So flavorful! Dont even really need the sauce, but that's also tasty. Got the Oreo top Shake w/ Strawberry ice cream YUM!!! Thay might have to be a staple everytime i order lol“

“I was able to pick up my food once I got there after a long morning at work. The person who was working in front immediately greeted me and helped me out! The food was top tier! It was my first time getting boneless wings and I can see myself doing that again“

“I’ve been here for breakfast but did you know they also have lunch options too?!!! I was excited to try them since I love all their breakfast stuff and I was definitely happy! Everything I had was 😋 yummy! They also had these canned popping boba drinks and that was a nice surprise, I got the Lychee one and would definitely buy it again.

“Stopped by Yup Dduk in Irvine and it was definitely a solid spot. We got the Yup Dduk Tteokbokki, Yup Dduk Chicken Stew, Tuna Mayo Rice, and a Potato Cheese Corndog. The tteokbokki and chicken stew were the real standouts — full of flavor, good heat, and just the right kick to keep things interesting. The tuna mayo rice and corndog were solid sides that paired well without stealing the show. The spot itself is casual and unassuming, and the food definitely delivers. If you’re into Korean street-style dishes with bold spice and flavors that actually hit, this place is worth carving out time for.“

“This chicken is absolutely AMAZING. I am gluten free and very much enjoyed the 50/50 plate with the regular and sweet and sour. SO GOOD. Even better - I have now found a fried chicken place to share with friends who don't have gluten issues. I'd share a picture... but it smelled so good, I forgot to take one and we ate it all.“

“Tried the half chicken meal and the $1 chicken tacos. Plenty of food at a good price, salsa and homemade tortillas included. Order at counter and take out was ready quickly, friendly service. All tasted good and recommend! They also have churros and Thriftys ice cream.“

“This is the first place I have found in Orange County that makes a hot chicken that is legitimately too hot to handle. And I say that as I sweat through the next 3 tenders. It's fantastic but I'll actually order something a little milder next time. Get Clucked means business.“

“Great management! Thanks for serving the Costa Mesa community.“

“Okay, I thought this was one of this joints where you order “Xtra Crack” in the comments and you get some smoking crack. Imagine my disappointment when I opened my bag and all I had was delicious chicken, fries and amazing coleslaw. Honestly though, I think that chicken has smoking crack in it cause I just finished eating and I’m already itching for some more…. Maybe you could help a fella out and get me some chicken? Come on man! Please?!?!?“

“I’ve ordered from this place 7 to 10 times and finally figured out. I should probably review it. I only order takeout. Never had an issue with my order and the people who give me my order when I pick it up are nice. Never have had an issue with the chicken. The fries are actually really good. I’ve ordered the boneless and the bone in wings and they’re always excellent.“

“I ordered the chicken leg meat with dipping sauces and broth. Honestly, the chicken was great on its own. I didn't care for any of the sauces. The rice was a bit salty but still good.

The setup felt a little odd. There was a loud speaker on loop reminding Uber and DoorDash drivers to pick up orders in the back. It was super annoying. I really think they would benefit from having a host instead of relying on that speaker.

That said, the place itself was cool, and I liked that you can order from several different shops all through the same kiosk.“

“Love everything about this spot. Super cute breakfast and lunch spot. I ended up getting the blood OJ and coffee which I recommend. Followed by their breakfast asada burrito and scrambled eggs with chives sandwich. Both were really tasty. The dessert is good but on the sweeter side. The girl at the register was so nice and sweet. Definitely coming back.“

“store is clean, food is delicious, and the employees are friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!“

“Muy buen servicio y el pollo muy bueno“

“My wife and I moved out of southern California 9 years ago and the only thing we really miss, besides family is the Mexican food! This local, no frills spot really hits the mark. The food is on point and meets all our breakfast, lunch and dinner needs! If you’re in the area it’s worth a stop for take out or dinning in the patio area!“

“Nice lunch/takeout spot in the area. It is one of the reliable go-to place in the area.

Hainan chicken is nice and definitely lighter meals to go for. Fried is solid but better chances when the owner makes them himself. The price point is very approachable and nice. However, I find this place inconsistent with portion and service time-to-time.

I know big chains can be reliable but we need more restaurants like this that could provide you something different and wider options. I hope this place does well.“

“Just an incredible experience at the drive-through. I wouldn’t leave a review unless this was special and they were so helpful kind polite. I hadn’t been to El Pollo Loco in a while so I had a lot of dumb questions and they helped me customize my order. We’re very quick and charming.

No issues with the food either I asked for creamy chipotle sauce on my classic chicken burrito. Highly recommend it.“

“It the Best and amazing chicken I ever eat ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“So I just have to say that the white dude that has a pretty cool haircut, I just had to say that he is a really nice guy and I like how he was very friendly with me, and he made me feel like I was in a good Chick-fil-A, I hope that he stays here in the foreseeable future until either one he's done with his college or number two he moves up in the company, God bless him and I hope he still stays in the company“

“First time checking this place out with the family this afternoon. Delicious spicy chicken, family friendly, and the kindest staff that make you feel like home. Hoping you get a location in San Francisco one day! 🙏🏼“

“This was our first time at Cane’s and it was delicious! Our local high school was having a fundraiser at Cane’s so we decided to try it. The chicken and dipping sauce were so good, the coleslaw very tasty, and lemonade very refreshing. We’ll definitely be back.“

“The food is great as usual. The staff is friendly and dinning room is clean. The biggest drawback for this location is the difficulty for ingress and egress. Due to it being right next door to an In & Out, there is a perpetual line of cars blocking the entrance and exit of the parking lot. The drive thru queue for CFA can be pretty bad sometimes as well. On more than one occasion, I had to circle around to the side street (Helm) in order to reach the end of the queue. It's really no fault on the part of CFA. There are just too many inconsiderate and lazy people using the drive thru.“

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

“The best food and the best service I love this place all the time is a happy face“

“They’re very professionals and the food is the best“

“The Best of the West 👍👍 🍻🍻“
