50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Sherman Oaks

“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!“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“Arrived late one night and ordered the fries with chicken and the sandwich. The chef was super nice and very dedicated to making the best possible chicken. Which it was, I have never tasted such crisp, perfectly spiced and amazing Nashville chicken before - kudos!!Thank you, sending our best regards from the two norwegians!“

“We arrived just minutes before closing, which can often feel like a hassle—especially in fast food. But Yadier went completely out of his way to help us anyway. He was friendly, efficient, and made sure we still got great service without any rush or attitude. That kind of dedication really stands out and turns a potential inconvenience into a positive experience.
We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this place (and specifically asking for Yadier if he’s working) to anyone looking for good food and even better customer service!“

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!“

“Must try fried chicken!!!“

“The food was delicious! We got the medium heat spice, which was perfect for me. My son wants to try the hotter one next time. The place was very busy so that might be why none of the tables were clean and they were out of ice. But we will still be back because the chicken was that good 👍“

“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.“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“I think a girl named Kelly took my order and she has the best attitude ever like she was so sweet and helpful with my order sliders are fire chili cheese fries with the Dave sauce, incredible and they’re open late! Thank you to the night crew staff you guys are awesome“

“One time when I got food here, the kale slaw was rotten and disgusting. But otherwise everything I’ve gotten was very good. Service is fine. The employee was a little unhelpful when I asked about what was gluten free but I was able to find the info on their website.“

“I am 65 years old. We had dinner at Humble Bird Saturday night. I have never, repeat, NEVER had chicken this good. Crisp, juicy (but not dripping like other places), no grease in sight. We got mild, but used the hot honey supplied and what a combination of flavors. We also got potato salad and slaw. Both great additions to an already wonderful meal. The staff was really friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The place was spotless. I live north of Seattle, but would consider driving down just for more of their chicken...Well, and to visit my kids.“

“Thank you 🙏🏽 for your generosity pollo campero and staff from the laboratory here at Pacifica hospital of the valley!!!“

“Be careful, the food here is highly addictive because it is so darn good. Whatever you order, add a couple of blueberry biscuits as your dessert. They are amazing. The chicken is really great, as well. Best fried chicken I have had in LA, better than Roscoe's.“

“Pickled beets nice patient staff yummy everything falafals garlic sauce spread baklava humous papa....humous with eggqplant pita bread tabouli +🙂“

“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“

“Omg, my family and I are big on wings. We go to wingstop and to bww all the time. First time we tried Chic Wings and we are truly blown away by how tender they are and how good the flavor is! We got the 20 for $20 on UberEats, plus some jalapeño poppers. The jalapeño poppers were delicious, only thing is we said for the price of plus $5, for 4 small jalapeño poppers are, they should be more. I think 8-10 would be a better amount for the price. Other than that, I know we will be coming back over and over again! Can't wait to try other things on the menu!“

“The customer service actually is what I liked the most about this place. I was welcomed when I first walked in, they friendly service and at the end, the employees introduced themselves with their name… something you will not see at most fast food places.
Not a big fan of spicy food here, but the chicken was good. My favorite was the mac n cheese. Definitely coming back here.“

“Nice Restaurant! Nice people and the crew. Good food, specially the fried chicken and the spaghetti.always fresh.😊👍“

“Small shop inside the mall but the wings is fabulous. The service is excellent, super nice and friendly. This was our first time try the wings there. We love the Yam fry also, fresh and yummy. Wait 10mins for frying and it worth the wait. Definitely will come back. Very satisfied, thanks for the great food and aervice.“

“I miss you! It’s been over 20 years since I moved to Orange County and nothing compares to your salads and wraps. Please open a local down here!“

“I love this place; it’s home to me with great food and staff!!!!“

“Zankou Chicken in the Valley is absolutely fantastic! I had the beef kebab and it was amazing. Meet was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The garlic sauce was addictive, and the portions were generous. The service was quick and friendly, and the food came out fresh. Definitely a must-visit spot for Mediterranean lovers!“

“I’ve been eating at this place before 1987. I used to take my children here for dinner or lunch on Saturdays. My children are grown and are raising their families now. I am in my Senior years now and moved from that area. However, I still go over there to eat on Saturdays every now and then. One thing I can share with you, is the recipe has never changed. 😎😎“

“Love the food at California Chicken Cafe. I especially love the Chinese chicken salad & the dressing is one of the bests I’ve tasted. Sadly they no longer offer the Broccoli soup and portions have become much small -shrinkflation. Also, I miss being able to eat inside. Everything is to go now.“

“The chicken is really good; it's a must-try for everyone, and the salsa is out of this world good. The wait times are 10-30 minutes; the people that say that the wait times are absurdly long are exaggerating. One time I ordered the party meal, and it only took 40 minutes. The people are really nice, and it's a great atmosphere and service.“

“10 out of 10 completely. if you're looking for that chicken that just falls into pieces as you take a bite this is a spot to go to it is amazing and tender“

“I used to visit more often when I worked nearby. In mid March of 2023, I was coming from an evening beach trip and decided to introduce a friend to their food. Daelan was very helpful with describing menu choices and portion sizes. He was very courteous and dressed very neat and clean. I will continue to visit for the healthy food and good service.“

“I stopped by Bacolod Chick’n Inasal for the first time after hearing good things about it, and I’m really glad I did. The grilled chicken was incredibly juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right with that delicious smoky flavor you only get from charcoal grilling. You can tell the food is prepared with care and made fresh instead of being rushed.
The portions were generous, the rice paired perfectly with the chicken, and the sauces added even more flavor without overpowering the meal. I also appreciated how clean and welcoming the restaurant was. The staff greeted everyone with a smile, answered my questions about the menu, and made me feel like a valued customer.
It’s refreshing to find a place that serves authentic, comforting food while maintaining excellent customer service. Whether you’re already familiar with Filipino cuisine or trying it for the first time, Bacolod Chick’n Inasal is definitely worth a visit. I’ll absolutely be coming back to try more of the menu, and I’ll be recommending this place to my friends and family.“

“I recently visited Kluckin Chicken and had a really great experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They were patient, helpful with the menu, and made sure everything was perfect with my order. It’s always nice to see a restaurant where the employees genuinely care about their customers.

The food was absolutely amazing. The chicken was fresh, crispy, and full of flavor, and the portions were generous. You can really tell they put effort into the quality of their food. Everything tasted delicious and well prepared, making it one of the best chicken spots I’ve tried.

Overall, Kluckin Chicken is a fantastic place to eat if you’re looking for great food and excellent customer service. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves flavorful chicken and a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be coming back again!“

“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.“

“Great place for friend chicken! � Totally coming back here.“

“My husband usually orders pickup for us and it’s so good and fresh every time! Love the comeback sauce! We always order extra for our tenders. We live next door to a Dave’s and we happily make the 15 minute drive over here for this chicken instead (: <3“

“I stopped by Bruxie late tonight, and I had such a great experience that I felt it deserved a review.

The biggest reason was our server, Nahomy. Even though it was late and I’m sure she was tired after a long shift, she was incredibly friendly, patient, and welcoming. I originally came in planning to order just the Classic Bruxie Chicken Tenders (around $15), but she took the time to explain the menu, answer my questions, and recommend a few favorites. I ended up spending almost $50 instead, and honestly, it was completely worth it.

The food was excellent. I highly recommend the Chicken & Waffle sandwich with sweet cheese added. It was delicious. Also, don’t leave without trying the Nutella waffle. It was the perfect dessert and one of the highlights of the meal.

Overall, the food was fresh, high quality, and full of flavor, but what really made the visit memorable was Nahomy’s outstanding service. She turned what was supposed to be a quick stop into a fantastic dining experience. I’ll definitely be back!“

“I love there boneless chicken with them sauce ooooo I love it ^^“

“CCC recently changed their green and red salsa recipe and I’ve got to say it is super delicious. The previous recipe was okay, but this new recipe is so good I had to write a review. I always order from them for the food,but this salsa is very very good. The salsas are now Roasted. Keep it up.“
