Chicken Shops near Santa Monica, CA

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

“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!“

“Amazing chicken. Simply delicious.“

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

“I don't care which Chick-fil-A you go to, they are filled with friendly, kind, respectable efficient employees. I've never went to any Chick-fil-A and felt disrespected at all.

My favorite thing to order is the chicken noodle soup, 12-piece nuggets and a iced tea. Not a lot of calories, healthy but extremely feeling and extremely tasty. It may not seem like a lot of food, but I am totally satisfied for the rest of the day!!!! 😋😋😋

“Decided to give this place a try over Dave's for lunch. I'm glad I did. Great flavor, not oily, perfect crispiness, generous portion of potato wedges and the chicken breast was perfect balance of meat to batter ratio.

When I came in to pick up I was asked if I wanted a free vanilla shake on the house and I couldn't say no. Delicious all around. I'll be coming back around during lunch time for the special.“

“Some of the best wings in SoCal. I’ve been living in LA for awhile now and the wings almost everywhere be off - but not here! Don’t over think it just come and enjoy. If I lived any closer to this place they’d have all my money. Saucy Bird understands a quality wing and most definitely understands flavor.“

“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.“

“Wasn't a bad experience but I didn't get the text notification that my order was ready. So I just happened to check and it was. Because of this, my food wasn't as hot as I would have liked. Still would give it another chance, though.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!“

“The food is sooo delicious. I got the fish and shrimp combo meal with fries and coleslaw. For my drink, I got Black Cherry soda. The staff is extremely friendly. They make sure everything is going well with you. I will most definitely go back“

“That Thai Chicken Salad slaps hard no cap!“

“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.“

“We got grilled backyard BBQ sandwich and grilled chicken protein bowl. Both were delicious, freshly prepared and filling. We are frequent customers. Their restroom is clean and we like to dine in. The owner is friendly, welcoming and generous. We highly recommend!“

“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“

“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“

“Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere. Tried for the first time with my daughter after her soccer practice. The smells as we waited for our food were enticing. Daughter's first time eating Peruvian. Took one bite and was so glad I suggested we try. Will be back.“

“These are some of the tastiest chicken strips I’ve ever had. I ordered it for dinner one night and let my boyfriend try. He liked it so much he ordered it for lunch the next day. The variety of sides is also much appreciated and adds to the deliciousness :)“

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

“I can’t thank Maria (the manager) enough! She went absolutely above and beyond to deliver excellent customer service and completely turned my night around. She is an amazing manager, and because of her, I will definitely be coming back to this location!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“We are from the UK and love going to canes when in the USA. The chicken is always so tender and hot the coating is lovely and crunchy, the texas toast is melt in the mouth yummy, the canes sauce is creamy with a little spice kick, and the slaw is fresh and crunchy.“

“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.!!!....“

“nice place for lunch time!“

“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“

“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.“

“Top tier service ! These beautiful employees took their job very seriously and provided amazing quality service , following ALL policy and made us feel welcome . They said it was their pleasure but in all sincerity, it was my pleasure to witness such excellence ! everyone deserves a raise !!! including management“

“BEST CHICKEN IN LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA: GOD FOOD GOPD SWRVICE VERY CLEAN“

“Independientemente que es mi lugar de empleo Yo en lo personal todo 👌🏻😋😋😋💜. C“

“Me encanto es el mejor pollo del mundo“

“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.“

“Found this little hole in the wall restaurant and it is definitely a hidden gem. Look for the sign that has Krispy Krunchy Chicken on a red barn. Quick and easy service. The food was so savory and flavored with tasty seasoning.
Recommend you try it!“

“Always great..half or whole chicken.Good peruivan food.“

“Love the food, service and atmosphere“

“Love the taste 👅 of their chicken 🍗 Yummy“

“Great and delicious food 👍“

“Best chicken nachos ever!!“

“So expensive. And still closed on Sundays?! Forever missing that fifth star as a result. Sadly, this location seems to feature stale waffle fries despite the volume of patrons or perhaps because of that volume. Worse still, there's several parking spots for eCars, but only diminutive compact spots for everyone else it seems...

No delivery window to ease the parking pains means congestion is a real thing. Pfft. A few more compact spots must not have been worthwhile.
Meh, whatevers.“

“The best in LA try it today“

“Really good. The portions are just a bit stingy for the price. I'd prefer the plate was like $22 instead of $18, and bigger. Still through, the quality is amazing. If your going with a friend split the potatoes to round out the meal, and your belly. Very high quality meal, loved it.“
