Chicken Shops near Laguna Niguel, CA

“I’m always the first customer in the morning, picking up breakfast for my two girls. They love the Sausage Burritos and Hash Browns! The food is always fresh, and the crew is so kind and welcoming, always smiling. Chick-fil-A makes our mornings brighter.“

“I come here almost 3 times a week...really good“

“El Pollo Loco on Greenfield in Laguna Niguel is one of the best locations in our area. Isabel is the manager and we must say that we've had nothing but a wonderful experience with her, every time we've come here. One time, we were shorted during our drive-through order and we called her, and she immediately took care of it and then some! This evening we were back again and she was so kind to tell us all about their specials and to give us a coupon. She is so professional, courteous, and welcoming! If you want a good Apollo experience come to the Greenfield location, ask for Isabel, you won't be disappointed!!“

“Outstanding experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken. Logan delivered top tier service the moment I walked in. He greeted me right away and asked what I was in the mood for. He listened, then guided me to the exact combo that fit what I wanted today. No upsell. Just good advice.

The restaurant felt clean and organized. The music was on point and created a relaxed, upbeat atmosphere. Service was fast and smooth, exactly what you want from a quick service spot.

Logan set the tone for the entire visit. Great food, great energy, great execution. I will be back.“

“I know this is very late, but I still wanted to give a shout-out to Moe at Dizzy Bird.

I stopped by on Christmas Eve with my family and placed a big order. After I paid, I realized I forgot to order fries. Moe immediately took care of me and didn’t even want me to wait or go back in line to make another payment. He just grabbed them for me right away and got me taken care of.

He was genuinely kind and didn’t make it a hassle at all. I really wanted management to know how awesome and genuine he was. Also, every time I come here, the team behind the counter is always super friendly, kind, and welcoming. This isn’t my first time here, and the service is consistently great. Definitely one of my go-to spots.“

“As others have said, tastes great, but the value isn’t there with the tiny portions. Owners, Please take a look at your portions and cogs. At the current price point, I don’t understand why a healthy serving isn’t possible. Even the soup is only half the container… come on.“

“Randomly stopped here on my way to visit my family. Tried the wrap, it's a great portion, and it was so tasty for $7. The chicken tender in it was so crispy and there was actual meat not just breading. I didn't find the white meat dry at all. Tried the mash potatoes as a side and it was good. I will def come back here when I'm in town.“

“The best chicken sandwich, It was delicious. I would start on the mild side and work my way up because some of the flavors can be very spicy if you’re not prepared. Other than that, everything was delicious and I would definitely recommend this place as the best chicken sandwich in Victorville .“

“What yummy delicious juicy chicken!“

“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.“

“Great service and very clean“

“The food was amazing!!!! I got the loaded fries and they are so good! I’m not usually a fan of coleslaw but I ate every bite. The fries surprisingly didn’t get ridiculously soggy with all the toppings they put on. The cucumber or pickle or watever they put on top was PHENOMENAL! And for those of us who have a more conservative understanding of the words “satisfying burn” stick with the Medium Heat lol The only think I could say they could improve on is the amount of chicken in the Loaded Fries. It wasn’t bad by any means, but a little more would go a long way“

“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.“

“The best food great Service clean restaurant always fast“

“My hangout, healthy choices and some items under $5 while earning points ���“

“Good quality chicken . Love it“

“Once the person at the register realized I hadn’t been helped everything was smooth sailing after that. (I do feel when 4 people around the counter there is no reason to not acknowledge someone with a hello.) However, what made it right. The person apologized. I really liked seeing the tables and seats being cleaned, the food being brought out. Plus, what I really liked in the middle of my honey packet and stick fingers they came by with hand wipes and mints. Then back and took my tray when I was done. Sending that person around with those gestures is chefs kiss. And the restrooms were clean and hand sanitizer was in clear sight.“

“Vegetarian options: The beans and rice combo with Pollo..churro * corn tortillas were excellent and so well priced ..Pls send me more coupons.. It's the only way I can afford to eat out..pls send coupons to me....Delicious .hot food if you are poor or wealthy.. Thanks so much..Amy

Parking: Very easy and reasonable parking even if you are physically disabled..“

“This specific location is the best Raising Cane's franchise I have visited. Neat, Clean, friendly staffand properly cooked and served fast food! Plenty of Indoor and outdoor seating available. Very efficient drive through process. This franchise is ready for real business!“

“Yesterday i came in For lunch Right before i started eating i notice two asian people Came in a Started changing the air conditioning filters A big no-noo specialy during bussines hours and with out covering the salsa bar or any other area I asked the manager to stop them, he came out talk to them and the continued any way Check my facebook photos and videos...“

“So everything was good. Workers we're nice. Didn't have to wait for the food very long at all. But only one thing that I have to put out there... the new Caramel Flan dessert, absolutely disgusting. I highly suggest getting the churos instead.“

“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!“

“We will return. Great food and much cleaner than any other One we have been too.“

“Staff here are so nice and helpful! After soccer my son wanted quick food before his next game so we pre-ordered the food and ran in to grab it. Due to the busy time they were running a little behind but they saw him in his soccer game asked if he was going to a game and after him informing them he was in a hurry to the next game they rushed to get the order to him. The young redhead gentleman was especially nice and made my son feel cool with his compliments. Super awesome employees!“

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

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

“The food was good, but the size of the chicken pieces keep shrinking and the price is inflating. I don’t like the kiosk ordering. When I go to a restaurant I want to be served. Also, the kiosk kept making beeping noises while I was eating. Very annoying.“

“It's the food you expect delivered well with friendly staff. It can get crowded and even the dual line drive through with staff walking outside gets backed up. It's a high traffic location with an outdoor patio, but I always get it to go at this location.“

“Excellent service by the staff (Ben and Violet-so courteous and pleasant. Ben actually asked several guests if he could refill their drinks or get them anything.)

Super positive vibe here, food was good and the place was CLEAN“

“My favorite location! The staff are nice every time. Today I went with my 18month old, and Nathan carried my coffee to the table and got a high chair for me. I like that each high chair has a sanitizer wipe and table place mat ready to use. This is so appreciated with a toddler“

“This has became one of my go-to spots in Irvine when I’m craving popcorn chicken, and honestly it might be the best popcorn chicken in Irvine. The texture is perfect—super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside—and the seasoning is really flavorful. It’s way better than typical fast-food fried chicken, which often has bland meat and thick batter. The batter here is light and crispy, and the chicken inside stays really juicy.
I also highly recommend the spicy chicken fillet, which is pretty unique compared to other fried chicken places nearby. The spice has great flavor and the chicken stays crispy and juicy. It’s one of those items that once you try it, you’ll want to order it again.
My coworker ordered the chicken sandwich and loved it too. She even said it was better than Chick-fil-A, which says a lot because she eats there all the time. According to her, the chicken was bigger, crispier, and tasted fresher.
Definitely one of the best fried chicken spots in Irvine.“

“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.“

“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.“
