Chicken Restaurants near Universal City

“We were visiting the Universal Studios during the 4th of July weekend holidays and everything was crowded and packed. The staff where you ordered seemed tried, bored and not bothered about you or anything in the world. We ordered the chicken sandwich and the chicken and waffle sandwich meals. Took around 15+ mins for the food to be ready owing to the packed holiday crowd. The food was good, quite tasty and succulent chicken pieces. We were intrigued with the chicken and waffle sandwich, it was an interesting combination and good to eat. Overall a good joint to eat in Universal Studios.“

“Expensive but my teens enjoyed their food. My son got KFC and my daughter got pizza. From the reviews I expected the pizza to be tiny but it was actually big. Way bigger than Pizza Hut’s usual personal size. Still too much for 1 pie and a drink. Welp, since they liked it, I have no complaints.“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

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

“Had a great experience at Red Chicks! The food was delicious, fresh, and packed with flavor. What really stood out was the service—Martin was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure everything was perfect. Will definitely be coming back!“

“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.“

“😉😉really friendly good portions must try“

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

“Im not from the pay and order on a tablet generation. Nope

Wack service, but to be fair the workers probably figure there’s no need because of the tablet. Who knows?

Great relatively low cal burritos! Big burritos! Great music! WeHo music!

They validate!“

“Visited the Manchester UK restaurant today. Did not like it at all!!! Had to wait 20mins for my order and when it came it looked disgusting. The slider I got was a real thin, tough piece of chicken which wasn't very tender and the batter was over done and tasted greasy which was no surprise as it dripped out when I got the carton out and had a hint of a beef taste. The fillet included was just the same but a little bigger but the fries were the saving grace! They were nice a fluffy but the chicken here is terrible and wouldn't visit again. The staff were great but the food was terrible and it didn't even taste like chicken! No wonder they have spice it's to disguise the taste! Anyone trying for the first time I'd recommend getting it with no spice to get what it actually tastes like! Rank and horrible! Will go elsewhere for better quality chicken.“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is the perfect spot if you love crispy, flavorful, and spicy chicken. The tenders are juicy on the inside with a crunchy outside, and the spice levels range from mild to Reaper—so there’s something for everyone. Their sauce pairs perfectly with the chicken, and the bread and pickles add the right balance. The fries are seasoned well and always hot. Service is usually quick, and the vibe is casual and fun.“

“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“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“Best spicy chicken sandwich in LA IMO. Ignore the photos because they just don’t do the unique sandwich justice.

Spicy and sweet and really good size for the price. Hot was actually spicy but still so much flavor, which was nice.

The big sleeper here are the cookies… i don’t know what the flavor was but it was 10/10 warm and soft!

Definitely worth a visit!“

“The food was hot, fresh , portioned perfectly, and very very tasty!!!“

“Muy buena la atención gracias 😊“

“Best burger in town !!! 🍔“

“Such a gem in a LA downtown!! Food is delicious and Boba are amazing! It is one of those places you nearly miss, but I am glad we didn’t. We ordered half pound dose of lemon honey barbecue wings. The food is generous and tasty. Everything is very clean and you have everything at your disposal: cutlery, napkins, fresh wipes, and to go boxes.“

“Just came to Dave’s hot chicken, almost closing, and it was packed. Raul gave such a good service patient and working so fast by himself, he gets a five stars!! The food like always is always great. Wish it will be open much later like around 2 o’clock will be great.“

“Great for bringing the family together around a real roast chicken with light and crispy fries, stop and enjoy, you will not be disappointed, well done to the smiling and fast team, very clean, perfect establishment

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Super practical“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is an absolute game changer! The food was nothing short of world-class perfectly seasoned, juicy, and packed with flavor. Every bite was incredible. If you love bold, delicious food, this is the place to be! Highly recommend! 🔥🍗“

“I’ve been meaning to try this place for so long and today I was finally able to. I’ve had chicken sandwiches from Howlin Rays and LeCoupe and this is on that level. It isn’t easy to find a good fried chicken sandwich in the valley and I was incredibly (and surprisingly) pleased. A shame that due to slow business they will be shutting down in October. If in the area give it a try! There was only one man working and he was incredibly kind and attentive!“

“Amazing chicken. Simply delicious.“

“Very tasty food. Wish they open a location in inland empire. Riverside or Redlands.“

“It’s slow to get your order, but that’s because it’s made fresh. If your in a hurry, take it to go. Otherwise, the chicken is excellent.“

“The food is really good! I’ve worked at UCLA for the last 5 years and never stopped by. Decided to come in today because the reviews were good and the chicken reminded me of el pollo loco but better. Not disappointed at all. The employees are extremely nice and let me use the restroom :) Totalyl wish I discovered this spot sooner“

“Solid chicken and sides, but the chicken is over spiced for my liking (not too hot just too many/much spices). Service is great but it can take a while to get food sometimes. I suggest take out since the atmosphere isn't great. Also the spice bomb of the chicken can upset the stomach in larger quantities.“

“Delicious! and great customer service!“

“buen servicio de atención“

“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.“

“excelente servicio muy Rico Pollo 🐓 campero Bendiciones para todos los que laboran en todos los Restaurantes“

“Everything about this place is awesome. From all the flavors to the honey that helps cool it down. The self serve soda. Even the seating of being indoor or outdoor is always a plus.“

“Family friendly fresh food and amazing customer service. Should out to Angelica who is patient, warm and friendly behind the counter. Just a nice easy healthy choice for a family meal.“

“I had such a great experience at this location! I accidentally placed my order at another store and came here by mistake. The manager, Angel, went above and beyond to help me out. He personally contacted the other location, canceled my order there, and made sure my food was freshly prepared here without any delay. His customer service was outstanding, and he truly turned a stressful situation into a smooth and positive experience. Big thanks to Angel and the team for their kindness and professionalism! I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Their charbroiled garlic chicken over fries drenched in garlic au jus is unique and worth the 15 mile drive from home. I normally go to the Pico Union one but this one has easier parking and more seating. They also have more selection but I've never gotten anything but the chicken. It was hot and fresh and as always addicting.“

“Great dinning place to eat and the music So lovable ❤️“

“I love their Garlic “goop” for the chicken. However, I am not willing to pay what they want for a rotisserie chicken when I can get a great chicken elsewhere for less than half the price.
IE: Costco’s chickens are awesome.
We buy the garlic goop from Zankou which is literally right across the street from Costco.
I know they will despise this review but I am simply being honest.“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“Some of the best hot chicken in the city! Ive recommended this spot to my coworkers and we're all obsessed. The crew are great and really know their stuff! Their fries are also crazy crispy. My favorite dish is the slider combo with medium spice level.“

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

“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. 😎😎“

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