Can't find this supposed spot, no phone answer
I was in a bad mood earlier so I wrote a bad review but in all seriousness the food was very good. I was surprised that the restaurant didn’t have any sort of waiting area or anything, but the service was quick enough that it wasn’t a problem. Would recommend ordering off of doordash though instead of getting it with the expectation that you’ll eat there (or nearby)Also the fries are a great deal. You get so much bang for your buck
It's a walk-up without atmosphere or service. That's not a bad thing, it's just a statement. Really good sandwich and the sidewinder fries are stunning.

Got delivery from Rocket Bird not dissapointed! Super tasty and flavorful chicken sandwiches and those loaded curl sidewinder fries were bomb. Butterscotch pudding was a cute touch. Touch pricey but its an upscale chicken sando so understandable. will get again.

Great grab-n-go sandwiches right by Crane Cove Park. The spicy chicken is always on point.
I was really happy with my chicken sandwich from here.Got the Cali BirdThe aioli and tomato bacon jam were tasty and a good comboThe chicken was well cooked and the breading was yummyThey also package things well so it stayed hot and crispy (pickup order so not a significant delay)A bit pricy, but that can be said of everything in the neighborhood.Would order again.

Ordered lunch for five today. One guy said it was the best chicken sandwich he had ever had in his life, praising the flavors of the bacon jam and the basil aoli, he also loved the bun. Another said he had never had better fries than the sidewinders, enjoying the contrast the sweet batter added to the fry. My only complaint was that we ordered 4 fries + 4 ketchups + 4 hot sauces and we only ended up with one sauce even though we paid $3 total to add them. Attention to detail on an order this size is crucial, people often don't have time to come back for missed items, and it's never fun to end up with less food to go around than you planned for. Especially since the house hot sauce is super flavorful, with just the right mix of sweet and hot with a kick of smoke. Rocketbird serves up incredible food, just asking that they show commitment to delivering complete orders.
Parking: Large driveway fits ~3 vehicles at a time for pickup, additional street parking on both sides of a low-traffic road. Watch for trucks.
The food is very good! It's at a ghost kitchen, so we order delivery or take out. Food came out very fast as well.

Really expensive, but great food. I wish it was a sit down restaurant.

Order delivery from here often and it’s always delicious. One of my favorite places to order chicken sandwiches and tenders. The sidewinder fries are also super good and they have a variety of sauces you can choose from. Highly recommend!
I do not like to give reviews at all however when you are paying 15 dollars for a sandwich I have certain expectations. The bread was stale, as in so stale when I bit down the chicken flew out the opposite side. Also, the cut of chicken was tough and dry.The saving grace of the meal was the sidewinder fries and the flavors of the sandwich. Safe to say I am thoroughly disappointed. This might be a one off but I will not take the chance again.
I just ordered the spicy habanero mango chicken strips and it didn't have any sauce but mangos. I ordered through ChowNow and I didn't want a dipping sauce, so I guess they got confused. Very disappointing for $20 chicken strips ?

Chicken was nice and crispy, and the fries were unique and had a pickle-juice-ish sort of taste, which made them absolutely delicious. The Cali-Bird may have not had many sauces nor been too juicy in terms of overall combination, but the chicken itself made up for it and dominated the meal.
Had the Island Bird fried chicken sandwich. Very good!
