Chicken Shops near Laguna Niguel, CA

“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!!“

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

“This is a positive comment for Ms. Estefania, positive, is a very kind and helpful person, educated and looks like she loves her job...
If all the people who were in charge of a business were like this, everyone would want to eat in this type of business...
Thank you Estefania....“

“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.“

“Halal spot ; Dizzy Bird is located in a mall, specialize in rotisserie chicken and also offer wraps, which looked pretty good. I went for their whole rotisserie chicken meal with 2 sides — it was around $35. A bit pricier than nearby spots, but considering it’s halal (and halal options are usually limited), it makes sense.

The chicken itself was super juicy, tender, and full of flavor — definitely the highlight of the meal. As for the sides, I tried the fries and rice. They were just okay — not bad, but nothing memorable either.

Overall, solid choice if you’re craving halal rotisserie chicken. I’d come back for the chicken alone!“

“This place has such consistently good food. they don’t have interior seating, but they do have some outdoor seats. Typically I just come here for food pick ups. The panko chicken is my favorite. Something about their rice flavoring makes it so much better as well. Overall it’s a solid place for a healthy great tasting meal.“

“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.“

“Great service and very clean“

“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.“

“What yummy delicious juicy chicken!“

“Went to Irvine location since I live in OC. I love Korean food. We ordered Fried Garlic Soy Chicken thigh so flavorful. Also a set of Yup O, it had rice cake, sausages, fish cake, cabbage and cheese. And the set came with seaweed rice and veggies fried tempura. My favorite place to go for this type of Korean food. Staffs were very nice. It’s a hole in the wall restaurant but good food and clean place.“

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

“The best food great Service clean restaurant always fast“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“Service is always excellent. The food is delivered to your table hot and in a timely manor. Tristin is great, full of energy and makes you feel welcome every time. We come back for the food and the excellent service Tristin consistently provides. You can't go wrong at Ladera Chick-fil-a.“

“The food is always good. Service was a bit lax and did not seem to care about the atmosphere. The place was dirty, with spills on the floor and trash overflowing. It was late and filled with teens and college students but wasn't like there usual.“

“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.“

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

“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“

“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.“

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

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

“You can only have 2- FAST, GOOD, OR CHEAP. Chick Fil A is fast and good. IN N Out is good but slow. Thats life. I love their ice cream soooo much, its a must. They offer orange soda which is kind of a rarity these days as well. Make sure if you order a chicken sandwich and you want all the vegetables and sauce on it, that you order the correct number And type.“

“I want to take a moment to recognize the outstanding service I received, starting with Andrew, who was not only incredibly accommodating but also took the time to share the benefits of the app. He genuinely seemed to care about my experience, and when he noticed something with my order that we both agreed needed attention, he promptly directed me to the shift lead.

The shift lead Marleigh matched Andrew’s excellent service, addressing the situation immediately and going above and beyond my expectations to make things right. It’s rare to find a team that genuinely cares about their customers, and this experience truly stood out.

For my meal, I ordered the BBQ Bacon Sandwich, spicy, without BBQ sauce, and added tomato, along with a combo. I wanted to try the new sandwich without the BBQ sauce, and the bread and bacon were on point!

Thank you, Andrew and Marleigh (shift lead), for an in house experience that I didn’t expect to even write a review for but you both genuinely earned it!

Order Number: 1084037“

“I had never been to a Chick-fil-A. No I eat there once a week. The quality of the food & the size as well as the taste won me over. Customer service is comparable to the 1950's my family says. Imagine that was the norm, the line is long in the drive thru, however it takes 5-6 minutes.I highly recommend this establishment.“

“The food was sooo delicious! Out of all the popcorn chicken I've tried in the U.S, this place tastes the closest to what I eat in Taiwan. Their fried sweet potato balls are delicious as well. I'm not sure why this place only has 3.6 stars. The only downside was that I didn't see anyone cleaning the tables so when my friend and I sat down, our table was kind of creasy and covered in crumbs.“

“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.“
