Chicken Shops near Santa Monica, CA

“My fiancé and I absolutely love this place! Every time we come in the area we drive 3 1/2 hours and this is our first stop every time! We were recently in town and we ate here twice between two days. The food is always consistent and so flavorful! It may look like a hole in the wall, but it is the best food around!“

“Great service and great food ! The chicken and waffles are the best and the Nutella waffles to die for!“

“Amazing chicken. Simply delicious.“

“Good service and good food�����������“

“Honestly one of the smoother drive-thru experiences I've had. The line looked pretty long but it kept moving and I didn't end up waiting nearly as long as expected. My nuggets and mac and cheese were both piping hot when I got them. They also remembered every sauce I requested. Really impressed with the service.“

“Absolutely amazing! We went on a Thursday of course when they have their $2 chicken strip deal, ordered 25 in all the heat levels (except country) and they are all 🔥🔥🔥FIRE! This is my new favorite Nashville chicken spot they're the best in the game. We will be back soon!“

“Great wings and tallow fries!!! So crispy!!!! Highly recommend the buffalo and lemon pepper wings. The crisp you get with the lemon pepper is no joke. Blue cheese dip was p good (I normally declare it my mortal enemy), but truly ranch is the best for this combo. Parking is super limited, but it’s worth the pain😭“

“The waffles and chicken are delicious! It was out to me in record timing! The presentation of the food was spot on. The service was exceptional! I will definitely return for another great experience.“

“The food and staff were great. But I had to pay $2 for a small thing of ranch. 🫠 like…. Seriously lol“

“I was first introduced to Nashville-style hot chicken at Hattie B's in Nashville. Although I've never found anything quite like it here in Los Angeles (Hattie B's chicken serves bone-in whole pieces, marinated through), I'm addicted to Dave's, and love the Extra Hot! (I'll stay away from Reaper...I don't need to try something that requires a signed waiver!)

My go-to is the #4, and their fries are great too. The extra pickles they include are a really nice touch, and the sauce is a the perfect alternate to ketchup, and really goes with the chicken.

The staff is always friendly and helpful, and I can order at the counter, at a touch-screen kiosk, or on my app. The app has kind of become the easiest option for me now that I've gotten the hang of reordering my usual. I try to limit my fried, fast-food meals, but Dave's is usually my first thought when I'm in the mood to indulge in that kind of treat. If you like spice, it's a must-try!“

“I ordered half chicken with broccoli & carrots. OMG! Their chicken is so juicy & tender. It is roasted perfectly! They grill the vegetables with garlic oil, extra flavor! I also tried the Southwestern Bowl (wild rice, rotisserie chicken, street corn, sweet potato, tomato, pickled red onion, avocado with chipotle sauce). Super healthy choice!“

“We were there opening day! It was great! Service was perfect and food was delicious. The gyoza's were the best, not dry, chewy, or doughy. The chicken and beef plate was perfect. Nice. clean interior. Best part? Walking distance from us. Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“First time visiting this beauty while in LA this weekend! Chefs kiss!!! The food was seasoned beautifully and cooked to order. You will not be disappointed and lots to choose from on the menu including sweet treats. My husband and I took advantage of the shrimp Saturday and fries. Let me just say everything was fresh and hot. Two sauces depending on what you order come with we tried the mango habanero & sweet chili!!!! We will DEFINITELY be back!!!“

“That Thai Chicken Salad slaps hard no cap!“

“Súper rico todo primera vez que lo probamos y súper crujiente el interior súper rico muchísimo queso el sabor 10 de 10 la verdad así me lo imaginé volveré a ir súper rico toda la comida las papitas fritas los aderezos y ami que me encanta lo picoso lo súper recomiendo“

“Great spot to grab a quick bite. Karaage chicken was super juicy and had the perfect breading to chicken ratio. Our server was super nice and brought out water for our dog totally unprompted. Only thing in this place needs beer! It’s weird having fried chicken without beer.“

“Met the chef and owner, he was so kind and accommodating. The food was fast and delicious. The grilled chicken was so flavorful, the Greek salad was also delicious. My friend loved the fried chicken as well. Overall, amazing experience with people who genuinely care about the food they are making and their customers.“

“😎Love the simple menu. The taste is a plus.“

“Love their chicken 🎯is the bomb💕 blew Pollo Loco out the water🍗😁👍“

“Great food it’s just that my delivery person was too lazy to enter my apartment door code and keeps saying it’s not listed and he’s waiting there and he’s supposed to come up to my apartment door and leave food at the door of my unit and after a while my food was yet delivered where I wanted it except it was placed closer to the unit door next door and not the best photo and placing of the item and I had to put on my clothes to get out of my unit and next thing that I see is the bag of my food and delivery driver supposedly touched a bit of my food and the Brussel sprouts are burnt and not edible and they gave me flour tortillas with corn tortillas and corn is what the site automatically set it to“

“phenomenal from start to finish, chicken and waffles are the best!“

“Had an amazing experience at El Huarique Peruvian Kitchen! The food was fresh, flavorful, and packed with delicious Peruvian flavors. Everything was beautifully prepared and tasted authentic and satisfying. The service was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed and inviting. Definitely a 5-star dining experience—I’ll happily come back for more!“

“Absolutely hooked on BOX Chicken! It is my go to pick up/To go food spot. I literally think about this place multiple times a week because of the addicting flavors and textures on its chicken. Not sure how the chef pulls this off so consistently every time, but it is absolutely incredible. Big kudos to BOX chicken, keep it up, and HIGHLY recommend!“

“We had the best waiter, Shorty. He was friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and very attentive. He made great suggestions for food and reminded us white truffles were in. They were delicious. He also suggested great wines. They were so delicious we ended buying some to bring home and share with our families. We are looking forward to returning.“

“we absolutely love Raising Cane’s, yum!! & this location is our favorite one =] food is always hot, fresh & delicious! staff is always kind, attentive and genuinely friendly! especially, Tristian!! ~he took our order tonight and was so welcoming and lovely to talk to! it makes me happy to have happy interactions with people & I always leave this Raising Cane’s location with a smile on my face <3“

“the best Hawaiian sandwich ever!!!! it's a very long drive but worth every time“

“Delicious little chicken place. Great food, small portions—kinda. Lots of side, not much chicken. I ordered the dark meat 1/4 plate, $18+ for two small pieces of chicken. Really good chicken, well seasoned.

Chicken was juicy, potatoes golden, bread soft, sauces delectable (chili and garlic). Hummus was RLLY good, and I don’t even like hummus.

Service was friendly and quick, what you’d expect from fast-ish food in Culver. The bright yellow decor is friendly, airy. A nice spot to chat over lunch.

I’m a 20-something guy, so lighter appetites would probably be satisfied with chicken portions. TBH I will be back and ordering the same meal. I’ll just… drink a protein shake first, or something.“

“Raising Cane's is a fast food chain specializing in chicken fingers. This location is in El Segundo and easy to get to with lots of parking right outside. Inside they have a little less than two dozen tables. The menu is basically 4 things along with sides and drinks, so there's not much variety, however it's because they do it so well. It's always hot and super crispy with the inside being juicy as well. The staff are super friendly and food comes out within a minute or two.“

“The best in LA try it today“

“Love the taste 👅 of their chicken 🍗 Yummy“

“Never have I been disappointed or dissatisfied by the service or the food. I average going there about 2-4 times a month. Most of the time it’s taking family, friends and car club members there for good eats. Food is always fresh, hot and served fast.“

“Very good food and friendly service. love this place.“

“exelente comida ,exelente servicio , muy limpio todo 👌“

“yo acabo de cenar una chiken tostada muy rica.!!!....“

“The food is good when they have the right chef other times is like they just want to cook something fast and mess up the food like one example the kung pao chicken should be spicy but it wasn't this 3rd time that I went there also the spicy fish wasn't either and no flavor ,and I've tried those before and it was “

“Esta exelente ese pollo no se xk esta diferente jugoso grujiente delicicioso“

“Customer service was amazing! 🙌🏾“

“nice place for lunch time!“

“Even tho they never get my name right I like the food. I get the chicken bowel most of the time and hubby get the tacos al carbón.“

“Hands down best place to go for lunch or dinner. No joke I eat lunch here 2-4 times per week. Every menu item is flavorful and cooked to perfection. Decently priced, definitely best bang for your buck around. Staff is always friendly as well. If you’re looking to get full under $12, this is the place to be.“

“Excelent food, fast“

“Good food and wonderful people Angela was so kind I saw them giving free food to homeless people which shows what great people they are, their prices are very reasonable too.I asked for something extra but Angela didn't charge me for it she just smiled and said it's okay you don't have to pay we need to support local businesses like this highly recommended“
