Chicken Shops near Universal City, CA

“Had a great experience at Cletus’ Chicken Shack at Universal Studios California! We ended up there because I have a very picky kid who pretty much only wants chicken, and it honestly exceeded expectations. The chicken was high quality — crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The portion sizes were also really generous, especially for a theme park meal. It made finding something everyone would actually eat so much easier. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re at the park! You can also pre order your food/drinks using the Universal Studios app.“

“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 ?“

“oh em gee, love love love!! this seriously is some of the best crispy chicken sandwich i’ve had in a while, it’s perfectly seasoned with the best crunch. the workers are super welcoming and sweet! even gave us free corn ribs because they heard it was our first time, defo recommend the corn ribs and the original sandwich mild. definitely recommend if you haven’t tried!!“

“Fantastic korean chicken, made to order with fresh ingredients. The chicken was delicious and clean tasting - no greasy feeling afterwards.

The owner took the time to talk to us (visitors from Philly) and make fantastic food recommendations for surrounding area. Stop by for the food and stay for a nice conversation!“

“I’ve been wanting to try this since I randomly drove by a few months ago, and all the time that had passed since had made my expectations exceedingly high.

Well today was finally the day. I got the fried pork belly and poached chicken combo plate and even with already incredibly high exaggerated expectations this exceeded them. maybe I was just starving, but it was genuinely some of the best food I’ve had since moving out here. The sauces are actually mind blowing. Also, pork stayed super crispy with takeout.“

“😉😉really friendly good portions must try“

“Second time here! First visited after a show at Teragram Ballroom. Here tonight for the Month Bar which is right next door. If you’re from around here or there for shows, please check this place out!

Beautifully crispy chicken and their loaded fries are fantastic. Will be back soon to try new items.“

“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.“

“Must try fried chicken!!!“

“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!“

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!“

“An amazing experience with wonderful customer service! AND… The food was OFF DA’ CHAIN GREAT!!!“

“good taste on every bite. love it“

“Ordered this place on doordash and it was really good. Theres no ½ and ½ button on doordash but i put it in the notes and got half spicy half soy. The wings were fried perfectly. Rendered dry sky and moist well cooked inside. The soy garlic and spicy Korean were delicious. Not too sweet or artificial tasting. The side is what i would describe as a “deep fried side chex mix” it was onion ring, fries and hand cut potato chips. This was a delight and solid market differentiator. I got 8 wing halves total and the website describes the order as 1lb ranging between 6-8 wings. For the price, i liked getting the full 8 wings. Will be a regular.“

“The workers there are very nice and the chicken is sooo crispy and amazing I loved the service and how fast my food got ready i took it home and I live 30 minutes away and when I opened the crispy fried chicken it was still the perfect temperature and still so crispy there sunset sauce and ranch is also soo amazing.“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“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 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.“

“It is the best vegan restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. Unfortunately there isn’t one where we live. But anytime I am in CA we always go to the one in Riverside.“

“Shout out to Ricardo and Jasmine fast workers I order a lot at a late time and they did my order fantastic in such a short time this location is one of the best Davies hot chicken and I prefer it over other Davies hot chicken they season there food perfectly“

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

“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.“

“Everything taste great whether it’s Original or Spicy. Whatever is your flavor, can’t go wrong either way. Good portions at affordable prices.“

“I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, and a cold drink. The burger was served hot and fresh with a perfectly toasted bun and a juicy, flavorful patty. The fresh vegetables, melted cheese, and delicious sauces created an incredible combination of flavors. Every bite was satisfying and clearly made with quality ingredients. The fries were crispy, golden, and seasoned perfectly.

The service was quick and efficient, and the staff ensured everything was prepared exactly as ordered. The restaurant was spotless, well-maintained, and offered a comfortable dining environment. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were fair for the quality of food and service provided.“

“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!“

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

“Delicious! and great customer service!“

“It’s hard to describe how great of a experience it is when you have Nashville Hot Chicken after a long day of work. Do yourself a favor and get the tenders and enjoy the sauce that comes with it. And if you leave a review they give you a cookie. Go there now and enjoy the spicy goodness each tender will give your tastebuds.“

“The Monty classic cheese burger. Outstanding!“

“Absolutely delicious food. Competitive prices, and welcoming atmosphere. The servings were generous; You will not leave here hungry. I highly recommend this establishment and look forward to my next chance to dine here. 👍🏻👍🏻“

“I really love the food! Most of the worker are really nice except the blonde girl that working today (on new year) i forgot to tell her we decide to dine in, which i apologize, and she just rude and give me side eye before walking away, sorry to make your life harder ma'am i could've not tip you and not visit on new year but we decide to go anyways and tip you,so why so rude?
Anyways other than that food amazing as always!“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“At the Shertz TX location they changed me $7 for about 6oz of ranch dressing. Blew my mind. Lol drove an hour for the mozzarella sticks and they were out. 😢😢😢 Chicken was good though. Mac and cheese was good as well.“

“Friendly, fairly priced, and DELICIOUS.“

“Great food Great place Definitely will return“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great customer service. Great food. Employees doing really good job.

I feel bad for employees because they have to deal with some really rude customers sometimes.

I have daveshot chicken app too. And sometimes eat there everyday.“

“Anzu no longer has its own storefront and is now operating out of Menya Tigre. This also has caused a menu change.

Their karaage remains the main attraction and is a good as ever. Their fries were always inconsistent, but they seem to have settled on some pretty bland French fries. It's definitely a downgrade.

Their Sicilian rice was a highlight of their previous menu that is no longer present.“

“This place has really good food. My friends and I came here for Pride weekend and decided to give it a try. Daniel helped us out and he was fantastic. The atmosphere was chill — perfect for hanging out a bit before hitting up the evening Pride festivities!“

“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“

“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!“

“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“

Parking: Ample parking with handicap spaces.

Kid-friendliness: Family-friendly restaurant“

“Came for the codfish Sando which is available in limited quantity daily. Staff are really friendly and will help you along with your order should you need any help with your order. The fish burger is really good and the tartare sauce they put on it is amazing. Can also order a side of the daybird sauce that they have and it has a really good umami flavor that goes very well with the fries. Would be back again to try the chicken Sando too.“

“Muy buena la atención gracias 😊“

“Best service and food, we stopped here on our vacation. Best customer service and really great food, we had burgers, tacos and chicken. Everything was GREAT. I forgot to mention the French fries, they are the BEST fries I've ever had!!“
