Chicken Restaurants near Santa Fe Springs

“We purchased online 12 piece reg. recipe chicken, picked up, ate 7 pieces at home, and chicken was over done, and crunchy, and did not taste anywhere as good as KFC is. So I returned to KFC location and spoke with Ariana, I expressed my concern, and she asked me what I wanted to replace it with, I said 5 pieces of legs and thighs. She took my bucket of 5 pieces and brought back 12 pieces of legs and thighs in my bucket PERFECTLY DONE. WOW, I said thank you very much, I didn't excpect that. I retain my high regards for KFC taste and service.

“Great KFC Wings and cold beer!“

“My Dave’s experience is always great! The food is always fresh and made to order. I never wait too long for my meal and the customer service is alway awesome. Amanda, provides such great customer service and made sure my order was accurate, I really appreciate that!“

“I worked t Pioneer Chicken #1 on Echo Park as a cook, prep, and last as a manager for 13 years . I never got tired of eating Pioneer Chicken. I always go to Soto and Whittier location“

“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!“

“from the moment we waked in we received great service! Jamal was so welcoming, asked if we wanted recommendations and we did .. we ordered what he recommended and it was amazing! everything was filling. we ordered the crimson (medium) & joey eat fries (mild) . i don’t do spicy, so medium was a bit much for me, so i would advise mild if you’re like me. The dressings and pickles helped me! also overall A+ definitely coming back!“

“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“

“Best Chicken in all of town. Extra Spicy is always a perfect blend of almost too hot and not hot enough. This location always delivers. Shout out to Johnathan. He's been working here for the longest and always has top tier customer service. Johnathan for manager. Dave's Hot Chicken for the trophy 🏆 Enjoy.“

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

“Ordered the 5 pollos for a birthday event and all side dishes were delicious. Nopales,rice,beans and the salads. No foto because it was all gone ..😂 order ahead of time,must do a small deposit to secure sales. We have made chicken purchase from here for other events (teachers and baseball team liked it)“

“The only complaint I have is the parking. Totally not their fault.

The place was really busy, but the staff was very attentive and efficient. They did a great job getting orders out in s timely manner. Our food came out in a reasonable time and the order was correct. The food was also hot and just delicious.“

“This teriyaki spot is our go-to place. Their flavor is one of the best in Orange County. While other places just slap teriyaki sauce on plain chicken, this place actually marinates the meat first, then grills it and brushes on more sauce as it cooks — giving it that perfect smoky, grilled flavor without being overly sweet or heavy. And unlike a lot of places that hiked their prices like crazy after the pandemic, this spot still keeps their prices super reasonable. Amazing taste, great value — total hidden gem!“

“Excellent Food and Outstanding Service!

I had an amazing experience at this Juan Pollo! The food was absolutely delicious — the chicken was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and tender, with just the right amount of seasoned flavor. The sides were fresh and flavorful, especially the potato salad, which has to be the BEST potato salad out there.

What really stood out, though, was the service. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They made sure everything was to my liking and served everything quickly with a smile.

Juan Pollo offers not just great food, but also a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes you want to come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality food and exceptional service!“

“Our food was exceptionally delicious! Wonderful flavors and delicious cucumber mint agua fresca too! Also fun, cozy atmosphere inside too. You can tell when you’re there it’s a very popular eatery, and for good reason! I’ve been there twice in as many weeks and I can’t wait to go again! 😁“

“the food is amazing and testing is great 👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“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!“

“This was my first time trying bbq chicken in cypress and it exceeded my expectations.
The owners are really attentive, friendly and makes sure each customer is taken care of properly. Another plus for the cleanliness and quality of food.“

“AMAZING! We will be back! The employees were so wonderful and kind to myself and my family, and the food was delicious! Huge portions as well! We will be back!“

“Buena comida selos. recomiendo 😎😎😎“

“The chicken here is consistently tasty, which keeps me coming back for the family specials. My whole family enjoys the flavor, and the service is impressively fast. The portions are generous, and the pricing is very reasonable for the quality and amount of food provided.“

“muy bien, lo recomiendo es buena. sólo que hay una que me atendió se puso un poco prepotente pero salió bien“

“I just got a bowl at the new spot by USC. Juicy chicken, nice fluffy rice, The chipotle sauces are tasty and service was fast. I'll get another bowl for sure.“

“Everything is good especially there sauce, toast“

“Great price for their combo meals.

We got 2 order of the combo wings. The combo comes with 1 medium size pizza, 12 wings, and 1 liter soda of choice.

You’re able to choose 2 sauces for the wings and we got mango habanero, lemon pepper, honey garlic, and something else. For the pizza, we got bulgogi and Hawaiian.

On top of that I ordered the dumpling and rice cake soup which was pretty good. However, there were only like 6 dumplings and lots of rice cake that couldn’t be finished. Towards the end of the soup, it started getting a bit saltier as well.

The price you pay for the amount of food you get is decent. Flavors are good as well. I think the only complaint is that they drench their chicken in sauce which isn’t my preference when eating Korean fried chicken.“

“If I could give this place 10/5 I would! At first I thought the place was sketchy at first but most good places do lol Franchise chicken places hardly have any meat on their chicken and the grocery stores always make their chicken too salty. TOTALLY DIFFERENT GAME HERE! Went here one day for a chicken plate and the pieces had plenty of meat, hardly greasy, lightly seasoned, and overall tasted like good ol home cooking 🤤. Just came here again to try their fish and shrimp and again, it was excellent. Most fish and shrimp places drown their fish in thick bread-like batter that makes you feel sick in a few bites. Here however, the fish and shrimp are fried in a seasoned thin peppery flour mix, basically a thin batter 🤤. I don't think I can go anywhere else for fried chicken and fish. JUST BE SURE TO AIR OUT THE FOOD TO LET IT COOL DOWN WHEN YOU GET IT!! YES! ITS THAT FRESH! AND THAT GOOD!“

“chicken tortilla soup very good“

“Ciro!!! Wow! I want to take a moment to recognize an outstanding employee at Dave's Hot Chicken, Artesia, CA branch, Ciro!!! From the very first time we visited, Ciro stood out with his exceptional service and genuine positivity. He is consistently polite, respectful, and radiates a welcoming energy that truly enhances the customer experience.

Ciro goes above and beyond in everything he does. Whether it’s during a rush or a calm moment, he remains calm, efficient, and professional. He handles pressure like a pro. Always with a smile, never missing a beat. It’s rare to encounter someone who brings that level of dedication and grace under stress.

Employees like Ciro are rare gems. I strongly believe that he should not only be recognized but rewarded. He is exactly the kind of team member that any business would be lucky to have.

He truly deserves a promotion and continued recognition for his outstanding contributions. Thank you, Ciro, for being consistently amazing!“

“Muy rrico y todo fresco delicioso y limpio lugar y personal muy amable y los precios muy razonables 🙌👍🌺“

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

“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.“

“The best deal for a party. They supply dishes, utensils and napkins. Not to mention tortillas & salsa’s. Nothing left for you to do but sit back and enjoy.👍 the chicken is fabulous ❤️“

“Chicken is not greasy and their potatoe and macaroni salads are good too :)“

“Came back to this spot and they did not disappoint—the chicken was just as juicy, the sauce still hits hard, and that slaw added the perfect crunch. The seasoned crinkle fries were on point too, soaking up all that flavor without getting soggy. They even have great customer service. Highly recommend this place.👍🏾“

“best chicken I Have ever had. loved it! Thanks“

“Small takeout restaurant.
Serves a good value meal of steamed chicken plus flavorful rice. Think of Hainan chicken.
Quite tasty and tender chicken including a trio of sauces that enhance the taste, I was told my the server that it’s best to mix them.
