TLDR from ChatGPT: Your wrap is built more like a veggie-avocado wrap with a supporting role for chicken 😵

I had ChatGPT analyze this wrap to see how much chicken was really inside. The scan came back at 17.3% chicken by cross-section, which is far below the usual 30–50% you’d expect in a proper chicken wrap. The breakdown looked more like 25% avocado, 35% greens, 8% tomato, and 15% tortilla. In other words, this isn’t a chicken wrap, it’s an avocado-and-lettuce wrap with a cameo appearance from chicken.

The salads are delicious, but this made us sad

Friend recommended this spot, raving about the chicken being the best in town. Definitely one of the best rotisserie chickens I've had. Salad was awesome too.

The food was great. The person in charge of putting the catering order was really helpful and she put in side of chicken last minute with my catering order for 7/23.

Horrendously run Restaraunt. I get there at 12:43, the time it says food will be ready. To end up up waiting for 30 minutes. Food was soggy and bland. Do not eat here!!!

Dear California Chicken Café Team,

First of all, I just want to say how much we love your food. The freshness, the flavor, and the friendly staff make it one of our favorite spots for a healthy, satisfying meal. It’s clear you care about quality, and we truly appreciate that.

That’s why it’s hard not to feel a little disheartened when we see the large amount of single-use plastic and packaging used—especially when dining in. We understand that efficiency and hygiene are important, and that certain systems are already in place. But when guests are enjoying their meals outside or on-site, is it really necessary to individually wrap everything in plastic and pack it all into a large plastic bag?

Even something as simple as reusable metal plates or trays, which could be easily wiped down, might help reduce this impact. We’re all more aware than ever of how fragile our planet is and how much waste is created from packaging that ends up in landfills after just one use.

Please consider sharing this note with your management team. We believe small changes—especially from beloved places like yours—can inspire a bigger shift. Many customers (and the planet) would truly appreciate the effort.

With appreciation, Frank Roller

When I worked in Hollywood, used to come here all the time. Glad to see still the same good food.

Got the Ceasar Chicken Wrap with a side of chicken pasta. If you want salad, you won't be let down with their popular Chinese Chicken Salad, you can add pasta to it also.

Update 6/21/2025: Food is still great. Only change is, no more inside dining. It was late night, almost closing time, so not sure if they have the tables and benches out during the day.

I brought a newbie here and he loved the rotisserie chicken.

Please open a location in DTLA, Pasadena, Glendale or Burbank area. Thank you.

Chicken was great and I love eating there once in a while...its a bit pricey but it's worth it

I love this location! Great food. The Melrose Wrap is my go to meal. But I wanted to leave a review to recognize the great customer service. They go out of there way to help the customers. Thanks to tonight's team of Roger, Jenniffer, and Janet. They saw me crossing the street to come and pick up my order and had it ready for me when I got to the front. You don't see this type of 5 star VIP service at most places. Keep up the great work everyone!

Everyone should go to this California Chicken Cafe location at least once if you live in LA. Especially if you order a night sometimes they give free food along with your order! Jennifer and everybody there is really helpful. Great service too!
