50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Placentia

“Best chicken EVER!!!! Must go!! Great service, great atmosphere. Can’t wait to go back!“

“This KFC is still making the chicken and food as it's original sizes & taste. Mashed potatos & biscuits are made perfectly. French fries are top notch. Coleslaw is very good. Also got a chicken pot pie, which we love a lot. I highly recommend this restaurant and location. It's close to home too. Love the staff, always friendly and great customer service.“

“really recommend so yammy and the price is good variety of meals must try“

“El pollo está muy rico lo recomiendo.“

“Tried this place a few days ago, ended up going there 2 days in a row! First visit I tried their Crispy Chicken Sandwich with Extra Hot sauce and fries, and it was a hooting delightful! Next I tried their Garlic Parmesan wings - ordered extra so I could put them in fridge to eat later. Very high quality food!“

“Love going to Dave's Hot Chicken! Today they messed up a little and gave me Medium instead of Mild so I decided to try it hehe It was pretty good a little hot but very tasty. Always when I go to this location Juila most of time is there and she was today also and is always very friendly and helpful! I gave 5 stars today still because the food was very yummy and sometime a mistake can turn it to something that was meant to be :)“

“The food is bomb. The Mac n chicken is super good and so are the sandwiches. I wish they had a Louisiana hot chicken option as it would be better, but it's still pretty good. They've got really good Mac, but could use sharper cheese for more of a kick. Also, the drinks aren't all that bad.

P.S. We compete in the JDM game so come to me for cars, maintenance, and service, but go to them for food because I only cook for my kids lol.“

“I love there rice wing. I don’t come here often but when I do come down to Fullerton. I always try to order the wing because it so crispy and so good. It’s one of the chicken place I would die for. Sooooooo delicious“

“honestly my favorite hot chicken spot. super glad to have one within 5 minutes of me!“

“The Reaper chicken.
That's what I've been seeing on social media.
I got it. It was hot, but not as hot as everyone made it seem.
Don't get me wrong, it was delicious and very spicy. But it's not for the weak. 👍“

“A little hidden gem in Garden Grove. They're under new ownership as of about a month ago. I've had the pleasure of trying out their bento boxes, sushi rolls, and their chicken sandwiches, all of which are super delicious!
Definitely worth a try. :)“

“Fire fire fire 🐥Great Chicken & Waffle“

“This was a really great place, with the food being aweome for a few reasons:
1. The employees and owner were super cordial and very professional.
2. The food was very excellent; with the powered cheese fries being so creative, and I couldn't get over them. Its like powered popcorn, but potato fires, super weird, super creative. I loved it. The chicken was also very awesom, I recommend the secret sauce.
3. The place was clean, had cool shows and music broadcasting with aesthetics that fit for this establishment.
Overall, This place is a Must Be when passing by. You will not be disappointed.

By the way, not sure why some people are giving this place low star's; I've grown up in bad, to good area's, so I know a thing or two, and know that this must be down bad people with a bit of money, or bad attitudes, and just want a free meal or hate on people doing good. You still keep rocking BBQ Chicken. Cheers!“

“My partner and I always try to stop by whenever we’re in the area! It’s a long drive but so worth it! We’ve only really had the fried chicken but they’re always so delicious and consistent each visit. The inside is usually kind of empty, I wish more people came by to appreciate their food!“

“Muy buen servicio y el pollo muy bueno“

“First time checking this place out with the family this afternoon. Delicious spicy chicken, family friendly, and the kindest staff that make you feel like home. Hoping you get a location in San Francisco one day! 🙏🏼“

“I absolutely adore Jackson’s Chix tenders! If you’re in downtown Fullerton, you definitely need to stop by. The restaurant has such a great vibe, and the food is simply fantastic. The staff is amazing“

“First time trying Dave's Hot Chicken! The food wasn't bad, the chicken was pretty juicy. Medium wasn't that spicy but the food was definitely made fresh! The fried were super hot and crispy when they came out, as well as the chicken. Overall, the food was pretty good.“

“DEFINITELY CHECK THIS PLACE OUT!!!!!!
I ordered the half chicken combo which included three side items. The chicken itself is super juicy and delicious. For my side items, I got a double side of potato salad and rice and they too were mouth watering. The person who waited on us was an extremely pleasant man who turned out to be the owner. He gave me a brief history on the restaurant which I found to be very interesting. Owning a successful food establishment requires a lot of work. Having to change up your menu items and re decorate the dining room every couple years sounds like a huge challenge. I will definitely be back in the future to try one of their Korean entrees. Did I mention that the other half of the menu is Korean food? Extremely diverse menu!!!!!!!“

“Great children foods .. it easy fast food and it very delicious 🤤 I will come back after gym“

“First time at this location and it did not disappoint. Great food and service!“

“Amazing food! I drove from Long Beach to Anaheim for the food and it did not disappoint. The chicken was moist and the potatoe salad is the best ever! I first tried Juan Pollo a few weeks ago and a colleague bought chicken for our staff. Today we returned the favor and got some b for ourselves. Amazing! Try the cayenne dressing. It’s good.“

“Outstanding chicken recipes and boba milk tea is to die for !“

“A pleasure, as always!

Chick-fil-A always meets my expectations, and this location is no exception. The menu is the same as all their other places, and the food is just as good.

* Chick-n-Strips: 10/10 - perfectly cooked and crispy
* Waffle Potato Fries: 10/10 - so delicious and fresh
* Hash Browns: 10/10 - our favorite item on the menu!

The workers were very friendly and welcoming when you first came in. We didn't have to wait at all to order, and the interior was very spacious. The parking is a bit tight, with limited spots, so finding a parking spot can be difficult during peak times.

We can't wait to come back!“

“Rose tteokboki - pretty good but so much sausage when the main should be ttok

kimchi jeon - asked for extra crispy and the bottom side was burnt

Sweet corn - portion was too big. Wish they made it smaller for less $“

“Delicious, juicy, chicken with exceptional service. I have never been so satisfied with a fast food chain. $35 easily feeds a family of 4 which is a hard deal to beat. My kids like the fried chicken better, but don't sleep on the roasted chicken because it is so flavorful.“

“Amazing fried chicken“

“The chicken joy are awesome. I suggest to put an extra sauce on the spaghetti... look pale“

“First timer here always heard good reviews from friends so i had to come out and try! I had the pleaser of meeting the owner Alley whom is a delight and gave us excellent service and detailed ingredients on the flavors of wings.
I ordered honey garlic wings, spicy gobi wings and a bulgogi bowel.Always love coming to to support family owned businesses thank you :)
The chicken is perfect never had chicken like this before 10/10
Also please note that all orders take up to 15 mins as they make it fresh and never pre fried!!!“

“Was craving fried chicken came across this place. Really had a great selection on the menu. Prices were very reasonable but most importantly, the food was grade A! I got some chicken drumsticks with some waffle fries and it didn't disappoint. Definitely coming back.“

“Chicken was really good and crispy. We’ll be back. Pickled veggies on sandwich really good“

“Started coming here when my dad would take the family it's been 10 yrs now still amazing food (posting after 8 years) food quality still amazing just wish they kept the old containers for the teriyaki plates the new eco friendly ones break apart too easily and rice sticks to the bottom“

“Ordered 6 meals for the family and a crispy chicken salad. The person who took our order read back everything, including the salad and the type of dressing to us. We had a large order, so we just drove home. We got everything, but the salad was missing. We then checked the receipt, and it was not on it. We didn't get charged for it, but one family member had to make a sandwich at home. Other than that it was good as usual!“

“Some of the most delicious rotisserie chicken you will find. Best rotisserie chicken in Orange County. I love coming to this place. The quality of the food is really good. The chicken is high-quality. The service is great. Make sure to get the hot sauce. It is delicious.“

“friendly service crews…great food“

“Nicest place! I called my order in and they were helpful and nice. When I arrived to pick up, the male behind the counter had a huge smile and thanked me for the business. He was very professional and kindly asked if everything looked correct post asking my name. The food was warm, organized nicely in the bag. Delicious! Thank you!! The Fullerton location has always been my favorite.“

“Amazing food, great service, and great chicken!!! Come by after or before going to Disney but in our case we are taking it back home. Thank you everybody for this amazing experience here at el pollo campero :) Delia is soo sweet greeted us with soo much care“

“This was my first time eating here, and wanted to try it out, to start off Juanita was a wonderful host. She made us feel welcome, and at home. Thank you. The food met the expectation. I had 22 on the menu the best value in my opinion and it gave you the varthat I was looking for, collard greens, Mac n cheese, corn bread and 2 chicken thighs. I washed it down with some sweet tea. UmhUmh it was good. Wasn't good for my diet but it was worth the splurge.“

“El mejor pollo rostisado que he probado, su sabor y textura es incomparable..“

“Service is top notch. The gave me a real fork, a real knife, a real plate, and then, brought it to my table. I wasn’t expecting all that from a fast food place. Then the chicken and the yucca was exceptionally good. This place was awesome for any price but for what they charge, they’re definitely the best out here“

“Wow, a hidden gem! I've never had chicken cooked this way and the flavors! The 'hot' was really good and large portions for the price! Smartly decorated with a woman's touch - and service that aims to please. Very nice place for lunch - Looking forward to going back!“

“Great food 🥘 Fast service super friendly. Will be back!!“

“Good food, love the chicken, the ube pie is also worth getting“

“Exelente las personas ahí son de lo más atentas y serviciales 10 de 10👍“

“This fried chicken place is amazing! The chicken was perfectly crispy, fresh, juicy, and packed with flavor—easily one of the best I’ve had! My son, who has a dairy allergy and is a picky eater, absolutely loved it. It’s great to find a spot that not only delivers on taste but also accommodates dietary needs. This place has officially become a new favorite! Highly recommend!“

“I had lunch with a friend who lives nearby. Ordered the thigh and leg combo. It was really good. I live in the San Fernando Valley, but I think the food was good enough to warrant another visit here. I also enjoyed the Orange Cream drink. I rode the Metrolink train to Norwalk and took Norwalk Transit Bus 4 and got off at Imperial Highway / Santa Gertrudes bus stop to visit the restaurant.“

“nice food! nice atmosphere! good service! clean and neat environment! fresh food!“

“As expected, this Chick-fil-A was very busy. The drive-thru was packed, so we decided to go inside, only to find it just as crowded, but the wait was shorter than it would have been outside, which was a plus. The interior was clean, and the staff, as always, was friendly. I enjoyed my usual chicken sandwich with cheese, or sometimes the Cobb salad with avocado dressing. The lemonade here is fantastic! Overall, it was a good experience.“

“It has been years since we have been to Mrs. Knott's fried chicken restaurant at Knott's Berry Farm.
The restaurant itself has been remodeled again, allowing for more seating, a bigger bar and a more modern decorative style meshed with old photographs of the restaurant and painted portraits of Walter Knott and Cordelia Knott.
The menu is simple, but well done. Of course it's claim to fame is Cordelia's receipe for fried chicken. Still hand made, as well as the mashed potatoes, corn, cabbage and rhubarb. The side of chicken noodle soup was superb, creamy and thick with huge chunks of chicken.
It was great and it reminded us of the times we would come here with family on vacations. It's an annual must for us when we are here in Southern California.
I think most would say it is a great food item.“

“We had such an amazing time the staff members at Knotts Berry Farm chicken dinner restaurant were exceptional. Everybody there was smiling having a good time talking to all of us helping each other out. I saw lots of teamwork. The restaurant was immaculate. The people that checked us in were very nice. I talked to the manager. She was very sweet and kind. The food was delicious. We will definitely be back.“
