Chicken Shops near National City, CA

“Visiting family from the East Coast and my daughter took me here today. I was stationed in Daegu South Korea for 2 years while in the Army. we used to get bb.q chicken almost every weekend. The kids loved it and so did I. This was my first time having it in 8 years and it immediately brought me back to being in Daegu. The food was amazing and brought us right back to being there. I highly recommend you check them out, you won't regret it!“

“Best fried chicken and fried shrimp! if your here you must try“

“Great customer service. Food came quickly and was so fresh. Highly recommended the Korean side chick and fries amazing!!!“

“This was my family's time first trying out this place and I've got to say the chicken has a unique crisp to it and is very flavorful and it's one of my favorite.

The wings I've had in a very very long time everyone loved him including my kids and the non spicy options were great for them we got the secret sauce as well as the Galbi wings.“

“Food is always on point and the people very friendly. But I wonder how important cleanliness is, it feels that everytime I go, the tables and floor are a mess. I get that a lot are disgusting and don't know how to clean after themselves, but as a restaurant, they should consider cleaning the dinning area. Hope this doesn't come off in a wrong way, but that's an important part in my opinion.“

“The clerk was a nice guy but not keen on the obvious. I ordered a 15 piece wing combo and he asked if that was for here or to go. Who would dine in and eat 15 wings by himself? Chuckled all the way home. Poor guy.“

“First time customers & I have to say they serve the best glazed blueberry biscuits & sweet tea. The restaurant itself has plenty of seating & the customer service was great. The macaroni & chicken sandwiches were delicious as well. This spot was definitely worth the drive. This is a must try if you're in the mood for something sweet & savory.“

“Food was good and a good value. Crispy skin on the chicken and salsa roja is really good. The best part was the employees. Super friendly and dine in service was really fast. You can tell they have a great team. The manager went above and beyond. It was my first time trying El Pollo Loco and I’ll be returning to this location for sure.“

“This place was delicious I had the normal melt with bacon the chef Atoy did a great job cooking our burgers timely and to the right temp
One thing to note is it doesn’t automatically come with tomato or lettuce but you can add them in for free“

“Great customer service. Food came quickly and was so fresh. Highly recommended the Korean side chick and fries amazing!!!“

“I love crack shack. I was born n raised in San Diego but moved to Memphis where I learned what good fried chicken is. This is the fried chicken spot in Southern California. Fire nugs+fries+pickles you can not go wrong. The bar tender is really awesome and the food is seasoned perfectly. Really good desserts as well.“

“Excellent service, amazing and delicious food. Highly recommended!“

“My husband who has celiac disease loved it!! The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside. This is the best fried chicken we’ve had since my husband was diagnosed. Unfortunately the sauces aren’t gf so we didn’t try those. The restaurant was very clean and the service was excellent. We will definitely be back!“

“Ko Kai has been such a blessing to have in San Diego! It is so hard to find restaurants with this type of food made this style! There are other variations of Hainan chicken but nothing close to this one. We have tried it all in San Diego and this one just hits home. It has a mix of Malay/Singapore and Chinese feel but from a Thai family! I was able to chat with the owners and they are super nice! Their descendants are from China but their family migrated to Thailand. This recipe has been past down generations and still operating till this day in the South of Thailand! This is a must try! You won’t regret it! I always have to keep an eye out for their announcements where they’ll be during the week!
You won’t be disappointed!“

“I been a customer for years. And this Pillo Loco Location. I love the atmosphere , Here they have the best customer service ever! Super friendly and always with a smile .

“everything is delicious..✌️🇲🇽🇺🇸“

“We got the Cluckin Hot Jumbo Slider with a 2nd piece of Jumbo strip. The 2nd strip was the Hot flavor. The Cluckin Hot sauce is definitely hot and was excellent. We were happily surprised with this. They said they recently changed the recipe to make it hotter, great choice. The fries were well done like we asked and the sauce options were excellent. We will definitely go back to this place!“

“Super good always,Chicken Joy with palabok and pineapple juice👍🍗“

“very good food...service 👍“

“Very impressed! After speaking with the proprietor for the very first time, I knew at that moment that I had found what I had been looking for.
Not all of us who claim that we can cook should actually be in the kitchen preparing food for others.
However this woman is the exception.
The ingredients, the flavor, the taste , and the freshness is right on the money and worth every dime.However there is one main ingredient that most people leave out of their cooking which leaves a bitter taste in everything they cook. You cannot cook or prepare food without this ingredient if you want to be successful.
That ingredient is PASSION. You can taste this woman's passion in every forkful. Her menu is varried and no easy task. From the chitlins to her Shrimp pancit, to them kickin greens. CLARA'S KITCHEN is no joke!!!“

“El Pollo Loco holds a truly special place in my heart. Growing up in the 90s, my parents used to take my sister and me here all the time, and every visit brings back memories of a simpler time. Today was my first time at this specific location, and it is easily one of the best I have ever been to. While the Mack Road location in Sacramento will always be my original favorite, this San Diego spot is neck and neck with it. Thank you to the team here for serving great food and letting me relive some of my favorite childhood memories.“

“We love coming here when we come to San Diego. Always an excellent meal“

“Tasty fast food courteous staff“

“I really wanted some chicken and it's hitting the spot!! I don't know if you are bone in or boneless however, I got boneless spicy chicken with waffle fries and a chicken biscuit that I'm going to eat for breakfast in the morning. I'm satisfied so all I can say is go try it for yourself and make your own discovery. If it's you, it's for you. If it's not then don't go back.“

“Great Mexican food... 🤡 WHOOP WHOOP“

“Excelente servicio y la comida maravillosa“

“El pollo delicioso 😋 lindo lugar , menú variado , las guarniciones ricas , muchas opciones en las bebidas y excelente atención su personal muy amable ,altamente recomendable!“

“Big hot chicken fan and I try new places whenever I can and Im a nationwide traveler and this is a definite top contender for my favorite place. The seasoning is delicious, just the right amount of spice, crispy chicken (not too heavy of breading), cooked just right, flavorful sauces, and the bun doesn't fall apart in my hands as I eat it like Daves Hot Chicken does. Will be back.

No rating for atmosphere since i got delivery.“

“The crew were so very accomodating and friendly Perfect service“

“Yulma is amazing!
Great food and an even better experience! The manager Yulma was lighthearted, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. The atmosphere was cheerful and full of positive energy. It was refreshing to see the employees enjoying their work while still providing some of the best customer service I've experienced. I'll definitely be back!“

“I’m loving the wings here. I was not too impressed initially ( 2 years ago) and decided to give it a second try and I’m glad I did! The wings were super juicy and adequately seasoned, the bread was freshly baked and fluffy. I recognized that more people are here as well. Nicely done.“

“Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers is a popular fast-casual chain known for doing one thing really well: chicken fingers. The menu is intentionally simple, focusing on high-quality chicken tenders served fresh, crispy, and consistently flavorful.

The chicken fingers are the highlight—tender, juicy on the inside with a light, crunchy coating on the outside. They are typically paired with Cane’s signature sauce, which adds a tangy, savory kick that many customers love.

The combo meals are straightforward and satisfying, usually including chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, Texas toast, coleslaw, and a drink. The simplicity of the menu helps ensure fast service and consistent quality.

Service is typically quick and friendly, and the restaurant environment is clean and efficient, designed for high turnover without sacrificing experience.

Overall, Raising Cane’s delivers a focused, high-quality chicken finger experience with great consistency, flavor, and speed.“

“Nice place to dine in and take out. Once in a while they do forgot certain things from your order but shoutout to Carlo their drive thru guy, always on top of it and always making sure you have everything for your dinner. We always find the dining area clean when we dine in.“

“Nice quiet kfc fastfood in Bonita. The service is fast, place is clean, and staffs are somewhat friendly. I ordered what used to be a $5 fillup is now almost $6, still reasonable for two pieces of chicken, side, biscuit, chocolate chip cookie, and a regular drink. Some of the benches need to be replaced, but overall, very comfortable with the dining environment. Hidden away in a non busy area of bonita.“

“lately always been getting the 12 Piece Original Recipe with sides. order via KFC app and pickup via drive-thru. about $36 but really like $40 with tax. would otherwise get $20 eight-piece bucket refill but always need more chicken because more people come to the house! Yum!“
