Chicken Shops in Irvine, CA

“I’m a regular here and don’t usually review places, but the team members in front are always very kind, especially Austin. He always offers a water cup whenever I have to wait a while for my pickup order and is great at customer service. Food is great and tastes even better when he’s up front.“

“Really impressed by how consistent this place is. I’ve ordered from multiple locations and the quality has always been solid. The Hainan chicken is flavorful, the broth is comforting, and everything tastes fresh. It’s healthy without feeling boring. Perfect quick lunch option when you want something filling but not too heavy.“

“This place is awesome! The gentleman that operates it gave us free samples and more dumplings than we ordered. Not to mention, absolutely delicious! We are so glad we found it. The wings were amazing my wife said they were best wings she has ever had. Will be back soon“

“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.“

“walked in figuring it was gonna be just ok, but it was actually so good that im still thinking about it... tofu was perfectly chewy and the sauce had this instant kick...

food came out alot faster than I expected, total surprise“

“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.“

“This place is one of the better fast food options in the area. Customer service is always great and quick. The food is significantly better quality than Chronic Tacos across the way. They do sometimes forget the salsa or miss something like a side of guac, so you may have to double check your order before taking it home. But overall great value for your money.“

“You can tell this is a family owned business that really cares about its quality. All the chicken are freshly fried, that's why there is a bit of a wait. The waffle is actually my favorite, super crispy, best waffles I've had in a while.“

“Only ever tried the Fire Fries and this is my first time ordering here so I don't know if this is normal for these fries or if I got a weird batch but these are SPICY. I am able to down a pack of Buldak x2 Spicy without a problem so when I say the Fire Fries are spicy, I mean it hurts like the fries hate you, burns it's way down, and while the tongue eventually settles down, my gut is bubbling and it's so painful, I can barely sit straight. Delicious!“

“I ❤️ their boba! I traveled 30 min to go here!“

“Great 👍 n very patient servers! Always helpful.“

“Great staff. Kids friendly.❤️🙏🏻“

“I finally tried Jollibee in the seafood city and the chicken definitely lived up to the hype. The fried chicken was extremely crispy and crunchy without being overly greasy, and the spicy chicken had a much bigger kick than I expected, which I ended up really enjoying.

For sides, we tried the mashed potatoes and mac and cheese. They were decent, but neither stood out compared to the chicken. The dessert was probably my least favorite part of the meal. It was overwhelmingly sweet for my taste, although some of my family members enjoyed it more than I did.

Overall, the chicken was easily the highlight and is what I’d come back for. The meal did leave my stomach feeling a little upset afterward, but honestly, the chicken was good enough that I’d still consider returning. If you’re visiting for the first time, the spicy chicken is definitely worth trying.“

“The staff here were so kind, friendly, and accommodating! They made sure both me and my toddler were comfortable and went above and beyond to make our visit enjoyable. The manager was especially wonderful—super nice and welcoming. Great customer service all around!“

“This place is a Taiwanese fried chicken restaurant and is a different style of fried chicken that is softer and less crunchy. It is much less heavy and does not make you feel too lethargic after. You order at the tablet and pick up at the counter. Very chill and casual spot with friendly staff are fair prices.“

“I don’t usually leave Google reviews, but I wanted to share my honest experience because I truly enjoy this place.

I occasionally dine in or pick up BBQ Chicken from the Irvine Cypress location to enjoy with my family, and the food is always delicious. I believe the fresh ingredients make a big difference. It’s not just my opinion—my friends have also said that this is some of the best chicken they’ve had recently.

What makes the experience even better is how friendly and welcoming the staff are. The servers are always very kind, and the owner is exceptionally friendly and attentive to customers as well.

The restaurant is also spacious, making it a great place to enjoy a meal with family, friends, or a larger group. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking for delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“The fried chicken is on point. Good crunch, taste, everything right. The fries could be good, but they’re always soggy when doing take away. Soggy already at pick up. I really wish you would stop using closed boxes, trapping all the moisture. Instead use the same type of boxes as for the chicken, so the fries stay crunchy as well.“

“These guys went above and beyond having known it was a chilly night to be eating outdoor, they provided us with blankets! What a touch of service-golden!“

“I come here for lunch 2-4 times per week and let me say this is the best El pollo loco ever and it has a lot to do with the manager Pedro he is amazing friendly and a very professional and kind employee of pollo loco. He deserves big time recognition and respect for all his hard work. This restaurant exceeds my expectations. Food is always hot and fresh . Service is excellent!!!! 10/10“
