22 Best Chicken Restaurants near Laguna Hills

“This place is truly amazing and wayyyy better than Dave’s (which has lost its touch recently) and canes. The chicken was very flavorful, juicy and clean tasting with a great crunch. The service was amazing by the staff. I ordered the family box and it was around $50 for 10 tenders and 2 sides which is a crazy deal. I honestly never leave reviews but this place deserved it.“

“Fast, friendly, consistent, affordable. What more can you ask for? Use the mobile app for easy ordering and some bonuses/discounts. The salad options are actually quite good, reasonably priced and quite filling. The chocolate chip cookie is always a favorite, the brownie is good, the seasonal shakes are always excellent. Breakfast options are quite good as well, certainly better than other fast food options, I like the biscuit sandwich.“

“We decided to stop at this Dizzy Bird location after going to the Irvine location numerous times before. We didn't know it was in a food court, but I have to say that the food was quicker and tastier than the Irvine location. The service was also better. I don't know how they're doing it at this location, but everything seems much more streamlined than in Irvine; they should really keep it up.“

“Arad is an outstanding cashier at Dave’s! Every time I’ve come in, he’s been friendly, professional, and quick at the register. He always greets customers with a genuine smile and makes the checkout process smooth and pleasant. It’s clear he cares about doing a great job and creating a positive experience for everyone. Shoutout to moe and arda for consistently excellent service!“

“JR at the mission viejo location was great. We rarely are able to all eat together as a family and we went there for dinner. We had an issue with our app but with his great customer service he made our family day. Thank you! Would come back again.“

“My husband and I came in on a Wednesday around 1pm to avoid the lunch rush. We ordered the original hainan chicken, hat yai chicken, and popcorn chicken. Order came out within 10 minutes. Everything was delicious, definitely enjoyed it best with the KMG sauce and the habanero which had a nice kick. The popcorn chicken was surprisingly very flavorful in the best way. It’s a unique flavor and unlike other popcorn chickens I’ve had. It tasted good with and without the sauce it came with and will definitely be something I’d crave and come back for. 11/10 :)“

“Halal spot ; We were on the way to South back home and stop by this restaurant for our light dinner.
I think it’s family owned and the prices are pretty reasonable. The staff were very friendly, and assisted us in ordering. Everything turned out good, they were super nice providing us extra condiments, etc. Be sure to select your spice level wisely cuz we ended up in tears, but we still enjoyed it though.

We hope that we can visit this place again next time we are on the way back from north
** hoping for a new branch near San Clemente soon.. we will be your regular customers“

“Wings were decent, fries were fine. Price was as expected. Loved the variety of the soda machines. I hate having to pay for dipping sauce especially way over priced tiny vials of it. Come on stop charging for it, no one would ever pay for a ketchup packet, why charge people eating wings for ranch or blue cheese!?“

“Love this place there food is so clean and tasty. Best chicken spot I have been to. I have been to almost all of them from Dave’s to hotties to Breds. But this one by far is the tastiest and most juicy. If you like your chicken juicy and crispy this is the place to try. Try them out asap if you havnt yet.“

“Everything about this place is awesome. From all the flavors to the honey that helps cool it down. The self serve soda. Even the seating of being indoor or outdoor is always a plus.“

“Good service overall, been coming to this place for a while. The staff are always nice and, they take into consideration when I ask for my chicken well done. It took me a while to get it right, sometimes I made the mistake ordering wrong online or something and the staff fixed my order . Lunch time hours can be a rush for them, they offered me the lunch specials which was delicious.“

“Food is always good and yummy. Love their sweet tea and kids meals are the best.“

“Excellent and Authentic Korean Fried Chicken
The global phenomenon of Korean fried chicken has set an incredibly high bar for flavor and texture, and bb.q Chicken in Quail Hill consistently rises to the occasion, establishing itself as a fantastic local spot. For anyone seeking a high-quality and truly authentic experience, this is a benchmark for how it should be done. They have their cooking process absolutely dialed in, delivering on the promise of what makes this style of chicken so revered worldwide.
The magic is in the batter and the fry. The chicken achieves that signature, shatteringly crisp exterior that crackles with every single bite—a clear testament to a masterful cooking process. Yet, beneath that wonderfully light and airy crust, the chicken inside remains incredibly juicy and tender every time. It’s a brilliant textural contrast that they nail consistently, creating a final product that never feels heavy or greasy.
Choosing the Golden Original is like a litmus test for any great chicken spot, and here it passes with flying colors. It allows you to fully appreciate the clean flavor of the poultry and the expertly seasoned, delicate crust. However, venturing into their sauced varieties is where another level of fun begins. The Secret Sauce is a standout, offering a beautifully balanced sweet and spicy glaze that clings to every nook and cranny of the crispy batter without ever compromising its crunch. It’s sticky, addictive, and delicious. Pairing any order with their pickled radish is essential; the cool, tangy crunch provides the perfect counterpoint.
Overall, it's our delicious and reliable choice whenever we're craving top-notch Korean fried chicken. We're always happy with our meal here and would definitely recommend it to any enthusiast.“

“The food I gave five stars because the food is delicious. I love the food from Chick-fil-A. It’s very good and even has vegan options so that’s very nice. Service is very nice. I gave a service of 5-Star because the servers were very nice and atmosphere atmosphere. I gave you a three stars. It was not the most clean atmosphere but very nice. I liked it overall. It was very good experience four stars. The only thing that was kind of difficult was the drive-through. It was very hard to get into it and get out from all the people crossing the road but other than that very good.

Parking: the drive through was difficult“

“We had to wait about 5 minutes for our food but it was worth the wait! The chicken was really good! I've been to other locations where the chicken was terrible. So much so that this was the last time I was going to try KFC. But I will be back to this location only!“

“I had a wonderful experience at Chick-fil-A thanks to Amber! Her customer service was truly outstanding—she was friendly, attentive, and made me feel genuinely welcome. It’s clear she cares about the customers and takes pride in her work. On top of that, the coffee she made was absolutely perfect fresh, and delicious. Amber’s positive attitude and great attention to detail really made my day. Thank you, Amber, for going above and beyond!“

“Food was great. Staff even greater.

Worth noting... building may be due for a full repipe... as a result the women's restroom is pretty heavily rusted.

Sitting on the toilet (admittedly as a broader broad) feels like you're waiting for suntea in granny's rocker on the porch. Needs a new flange and to be remounted at the minimum.

So as to avoid having to do it again sooner, rather than later, consider the repiping.

Of note the manager seemed like this is one of his biggest stressers... trying to get his bosses to agree to the job, while trying to still assuage customers who go through the experience.“

“All is great; large beautiful seating arrangements indoors and outdoors. Cobb salad 🥗 with grilled chicken 🐓 is very fresh. I always ask the cashier to remove the bacon 🥓 Spicy 🌶️ southwest chicken salad is great. Shakes are too. Pictures were taken over two visits. Thanks Kaitlyn for your care and great service 🙏🌹“

“they have a special limited time deal on their 4pc boneless box for $9.99. It comes with fries and drink. I think its a great deal than the 6pc boneless box lunch deal because this offer is all day, wheres the lunch deal ends at 3pm and its $16.99 but with tax it comes out to like $18.“

“I rarely feel the need/urge to post reviews but THIS Chick-fil-A has never disappointed me and if they ever make a slight mistake? They are suuuuuper sweet and quick to fix it! Today in specific I noticed a worker I hadn’t seen before and Sharon? If you’re seeing this? I LOVEEEEE your positive attitude! Very few people show excitement or care for their jobs nowadays. Such a sweetheart! Sooooooo helpful & super aware of when people need assistance, OR if tables need clearing/cleaning!
This place is always so clean and the lighting is nice as well. Whenever I do dine-in or drive thru? The wait isn’t long, even when they are backed up on orders! Will cont. coming to THIS location for the foreseeable future!🤍❤️🤍❤️“

“I loveee this location soooo much! The food is always good and the customer service is ALWAYS great! I usually go through the drive thru but sometimes I find the time to go in and order to make sure I visit Jeanne. She's a great asset to the company and community. ❤️“
